Male Hormone

£90.00

The "Male Hormone" test package is a tailored panel designed to evaluate key hormones that play a significant role in male reproductive health and overall well-being. These tests can help identify hormonal imbalances that may affect fertility, sexual function, and other aspects of health.

Hormone Tests for Men

  • Total Testosterone: This primary male sex hormone is crucial for the development of male reproductive tissues, muscle mass, bone density, and body hair. It also influences sexual function, sperm production, and mood. Low levels can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, reduced libido, and decreased muscle mass, while high levels can cause acne and increased risk of certain health conditions.

  • FSH (Follicle-Stimulating Hormone): Although FSH is often associated with female reproductive health, it is also important in the male reproductive system. In men, FSH is essential for the production of sperm. Elevated or reduced levels of FSH can signal issues with testicular function or pituitary gland function.

  • LH (Luteinising Hormone): LH stimulates testosterone production and is essential for healthy sperm development. Abnormal levels of LH can indicate problems with the testes or pituitary gland, potentially affecting fertility and testosterone levels.

  • Oestradiol: A form of estrogen, oestradiol in men is usually converted from testosterone and is important for regulating libido, erectile function, and sperm production. While oestradiol is present in much lower levels in men than in women, it is still important for bone health and brain function. High levels of oestradiol in men can lead to gynecomastia (development of breast tissue) and other health issues.

  • Prolactin: This hormone, primarily known for its role in lactation in women, can also affect men. In men, high levels of prolactin can interfere with the production of testosterone and sperm, which may cause infertility, decreased libido, and erectile dysfunction.

These hormone levels can vary based on a variety of factors, including age, health status, and time of day. The results from this panel can provide insights into conditions such as hypogonadism (low testosterone), pituitary gland disorders, and can also inform treatment decisions for issues like infertility or hormonal therapy. It is crucial for men experiencing symptoms that may be related to hormone imbalances to consult with a healthcare provider for a proper assessment and to discuss the results in the context of their specific health situation. Depending on the outcomes, further evaluation or treatment may be necessary.
