What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're experiencing unexplained fatigue, low energy, reduced muscle mass, decreased motivation, or mood changes. It helps identify hormonal imbalances affecting your vitality, metabolism, and overall performance. Many men use this test when they suspect hormone-related issues but want concrete answers to optimize their health.

What happens after I get my results?

You'll receive detailed doctor notes in simple language explaining what your hormone levels mean for your energy, mood, and overall health. These notes include personalized recommendations like lifestyle changes, supplement suggestions, or whether you should consider hormone optimization therapy. You'll also get the standard lab report and can track your hormone levels over time using our trends feature to see how your interventions are working.

What's included in this test?

This panel measures Testosterone (Free and Total) using LC/MS/MS, IGF-1, Free T3, TSH, Free T4, DHEA (unconjugated), DHEA-S, and Vitamin D (25-Hydroxy). This comprehensive panel evaluates your hormonal balance through testosterone levels, which directly impact energy, mood, muscle mass, and libido. It checks thyroid function to identify causes of unexplained fatigue and metabolism issues, measures IGF-1 for growth hormone assessment, DHEA levels for adrenal health, and Vitamin D for immune function and energy. Together, these measurements provide a complete picture of the factors affecting your vitality, performance, and overall male health.

How should I prepare for this test?

Overnight fasting is preferred, meaning no food or beverages other than water for at least 8-10 hours before testing. If you use testosterone cream, avoid rubbing it into your inner elbow area for 24 hours before the test to prevent falsely elevated results. If you take high-dose biotin supplements (vitamin B7 or H), stop taking them at least 72 hours before your blood draw.

When will I get my results?

Your results are typically available within 7 business days after your sample is collected. In some cases, if confirmation testing is needed, it may take a few additional days. You'll be notified as soon as your results are ready to view in your secure online account.

Who should consider getting this test?

This test is perfect for men experiencing fatigue, low energy, difficulty building muscle, decreased libido, mood changes, or weight management issues. It's also valuable for men over 35 wanting to establish baseline hormone levels, athletes optimizing performance, or anyone curious about their hormonal health and vitality.

What symptoms indicate I may need this test?

Common symptoms include persistent tiredness despite adequate sleep, difficulty losing weight or gaining muscle, reduced motivation or mental fog, decreased sex drive, mood swings or irritability, and feeling cold frequently. If you're experiencing several of these symptoms together, hormone imbalances could be a contributing factor worth investigating.

How can I naturally support healthy testosterone levels?

Focus on resistance training and high-intensity exercise, which naturally boost testosterone production. Prioritize 7-8 hours of quality sleep each night and manage stress through meditation or relaxation techniques. Include zinc and magnesium-rich foods like shellfish, beef, pumpkin seeds, and dark leafy greens, and maintain a healthy body weight since excess body fat can lower testosterone.

What is IGF-1 and why does it matter?

IGF-1 (Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1) is a hormone that works with growth hormone to build and repair tissues, including muscle. It plays a crucial role in metabolism, muscle growth, recovery from exercise, and maintaining energy levels. Low IGF-1 can contribute to fatigue, difficulty building muscle, slower recovery, and reduced vitality as you age.

How often should I retest my hormone levels?

If you're making lifestyle changes or starting optimization protocols, retest every 3-6 months to track progress and adjust your approach. Once your levels are optimized and stable, testing every 6-12 months is recommended for ongoing monitoring. If you're experiencing new symptoms or significant life changes, more frequent testing may be helpful.
