Fasting: No special preparation is required.
Turnaround: 1-2 business days. May take longer based on weather, holiday, or lab delays.

What's Included

Testosterone, Total

Testosterone, Total: The total concentration of testosterone in the blood, including both protein-bound and free testosterone. Helps regulate reproductive function, sex drive, muscle mass, and bone health.

Testosterone, Free

Testosterone, Free: The concentration of testosterone in the blood that is not bound to proteins and is available to act on tissues. Helps assess biologically active testosterone levels and hormonal balance.

Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG)

Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG): A protein produced mainly by the liver that binds testosterone and estrogen in the blood, helping regulate the amount of sex hormones available to tissues.

Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH)

Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH): A hormone produced by the pituitary gland that stimulates ovarian follicle development and estrogen production in women and supports sperm production in men.

Luteinizing Hormone (LH)

Luteinizing Hormone (LH): A hormone produced by the pituitary gland that triggers ovulation and supports progesterone production in women and stimulates testosterone production in men.

Prolactin

Prolactin: A hormone produced by the pituitary gland that primarily stimulates breast milk production after childbirth and helps regulate reproductive function by influencing other reproductive hormones.

Lab Note: Biomarkers tested may vary slightly between labs.

FAQ

1. Do I need to fast or prepare for this test?

No special preparation is required for this panel.

2. How quickly will I get results?

Expect results in 1-2 business days. Timing may take longer based on weather, holiday, or lab delays.

3. What can my results tell me?

Together, these measurements give you a look at testosterone alongside related hormones. Testosterone values show your hormone levels directly, while the other markers add context about the hormonal signals and proteins that surround them. Your provider can use the combined picture as one part of a broader conversation about your health.

4. How do the tests in this panel differ from one another?

Total testosterone and free testosterone are separate measurements, and neither replaces the other. Total testosterone is measured by LC/MS or MS depending on the lab, while free testosterone is reported as Free Testosterone (Direct) or Testosterone, Free. SHBG is a binding protein, FSH and LH are pituitary hormones, and prolactin is a distinct hormone with its own role.

5. How do I interpret the results?

Meaning comes from the pattern across all markers, not from any single number. Each marker offers a different kind of information, and the markers will not necessarily rise or fall together. Your symptoms, medical history, medications, and the lab's methodology all shape what a result means. A qualified healthcare provider can put your values in context.

Disclaimer: Reference ranges may vary by laboratory. Listed ranges are general guidelines and may differ from those used by the performing lab. Always consult your healthcare provider for interpretation.

6. What should I do if my results are abnormal?

Start by sharing your results with a qualified healthcare provider. One out-of-range value does not tell the whole story, and patterns across several results often need clinical interpretation. Your provider can decide whether any further evaluation makes sense for you.
