Male Hormone Test
The foundations for masculinity and fertility
It’s not always obvious what could be causing symptoms such as a lack of energy, mood swings or low sex drive. We often put these issues down to diet, lack of sleep or stress but there could be other underlying issues. This comprehensive panel of hormone tests can be used to identify a hormonal imbalance, provide insight into the onset of andropause (male menopause), or investigate conditions that can lead to male infertility.
Testosterone production declines at the rate of approx. 1% each year after the age of 30, but in some men this decline is more rapid. It is quite common for men entering their 40s to experience a loss of sex drive, impotence and depression due to a natural reduction in testosterone production. For men of any age difficulty controlling body weight and the inability to build muscle may indicate a hormone imbalance.
This hormone test can be combined with a Semen Test to provide a comprehensive picture of male fertility.
What's included
This hormone blood test measures levels of the key hormones and androgens that play an important role in governing masculinity and fertility. Please contact us if you need a sensitive oestradiol assay performed.
Cortisol and DHEA-S play important roles in regulating physiological processes in the body. Cortisol has a catabolic effect which mobilises the body’s nutritional resources for fuel. DHEA-S has an opposing anabolic effect and converts food into living tissue. In order to achieve your fitness goals cortisol and DHEA-S must be in proper balance.
IGF-1 is involved in a wide range of physiological processes, including bone growth, muscle growth and repair, and the development of the nervous system. It also helps regulate metabolism, including glucose metabolism and fat metabolism.
