What is the purpose of this test?

The ZRT Lab's Male Comprehensive Profile I Saliva and Blood is a comprehensive test that evaluates various hormones related to men's health using samples of saliva and blood. It assesses hormones like testosterone, DHEA-S, cortisol, and estradiol, which are crucial for regulating energy, muscle development, stress response, and reproductive functions. By examining both saliva and blood samples, this profile provides a detailed view of hormone levels throughout the day and their overall impact on health.

This test is important because it helps doctors identify hormone imbalances that could lead to symptoms such as fatigue, low libido, mood swings, and muscle weakness. It also aids in diagnosing conditions like hypogonadism (low testosterone) or adrenal dysfunction, which can affect men's vitality and long-term health. Based on the results, doctors can recommend tailored treatments, including hormone replacement therapy, lifestyle changes, or nutritional adjustments, to improve hormone balance and enhance overall well-being.

The Male Comprehensive Profile I Saliva and Blood - ZRT Test Kit includes the following:

Saliva:

  • Estradiol (E2) - Estradiol (E2) is a hormone and the most active form of estrogen found in both men and women. It plays a crucial role in regulating reproductive functions, including the menstrual cycle, fertility, and development of secondary sexual characteristics.
  • Testosterone (T) - Testosterone (T) is a hormone primarily produced in the testes in men and in smaller amounts in the ovaries and adrenal glands in women. It plays a key role in the development of male reproductive tissues and secondary sexual characteristics, such as muscle mass, bone density, and facial hair growth.
  • DHEA-S (DS) - DHEA-S (Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate) is a hormone produced by the adrenal glands, and, to a lesser extent, by the ovaries and testes. It serves as a precursor to other hormones, including testosterone and estrogen, and plays a role in regulating mood, energy levels, and overall well-being.
  • Cortisol x4 (Cx4): Cortisol (morning) | Cortisol (noon) | Cortisol (evening) | Cortisol (night)

Blood Spot:

  • Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) - Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) is a protein produced by cells in the prostate gland. It is primarily used as a biomarker to screen for prostate cancer and to monitor the effectiveness of treatment for prostate conditions.
  • Sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) - Sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) is a protein produced by the liver that binds to sex hormones, such as testosterone and estrogen, in the bloodstream. It regulates the amount of these hormones that are available for use by cells throughout the body.
  • Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH)—TSH, or thyroid-stimulating hormone, tells your thyroid gland to make more thyroid hormones, which are essential for your body's energy and growth.
  • Free T3 (fT3)—Free T3, or triiodothyronine, is the active form of a hormone produced by the thyroid gland that plays a crucial role in regulating your body's metabolism, energy levels, and overall growth and development. It is called "free" because it is not bound to proteins in the blood, making it available for the body's use.
  • Free T4 (fT4)—Free T4, or free thyroxine, is a hormone made by the thyroid gland that helps control your body's metabolism and energy levels. It is called "free" because it is not attached to proteins in the blood, making it ready for the body to use.
  • Thyroid peroxidase antibodies (TPOab)—TPOab, or thyroid peroxidase antibodies, are proteins that attack the thyroid gland, potentially causing thyroid problems like Hashimoto's disease.

  3. Early Detection: Helps detect hormone imbalances or abnormalities early on, allowing for timely intervention.
  4. Personalized Treatment Plans: Guides personalized treatment strategies based on specific hormone levels and patterns.
  5. Convenient Sampling: Uses saliva and blood samples, making it easy to collect and less invasive than traditional blood draws.
  6. Monitors Progress: Enables monitoring of hormone levels over time to track improvements or changes in health status.
Test Code(s):
