The Comprehensive Male Hormone Blood Test Panel measures eighteen markers related to hormones, metabolic health, and general blood work in men. It provides the broadest view in this series, adding markers such as bioavailable testosterone, thyroid hormones, cortisol, insulin, vitamin D, and hemoglobin A1c to the standard panel. It is used when a provider wants a detailed assessment of hormone and metabolic factors associated with aging in men. Each marker is reported separately, and results are interpreted with your symptoms and history.

• Total Testosterone Measures the overall level of testosterone in the blood.
• Free Testosterone Measures the unbound portion of testosterone that is available to tissues.
• Bioavailable Testosterone Measures the testosterone that is loosely bound and readily available to tissues.
• Estradiol (Sensitive) Measures estradiol, a form of estrogen, using a sensitive assay.
• Luteinizing Hormone (LH) Measures a pituitary hormone that signals testosterone production.
• Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Measures a pituitary hormone involved in reproductive function.
• Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) Measures the protein that binds testosterone and affects free levels.
• Prolactin Measures a pituitary hormone that can influence reproductive function.
• PSA (Total) Measures prostate-specific antigen, a marker related to prostate health.
• Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) Measures a pituitary hormone that regulates thyroid activity.
• Free T4 Measures the unbound form of thyroxine, a thyroid hormone.
• Free T3 Measures the unbound form of triiodothyronine, an active thyroid hormone.
• DHEA-Sulfate Measures an adrenal hormone that contributes to sex hormone production.
• Cortisol Measures the main adrenal stress hormone.
• IGF-1 Measures insulin-like growth factor 1, a marker of growth hormone activity.
• Insulin Measures insulin, a hormone that regulates blood sugar.
• Hemoglobin A1c Measures average blood sugar over recent weeks.
• Vitamin D 25-Hydroxy Measures the main circulating form of vitamin D.

• Men wanting the most detailed hormone and metabolic assessment in this series.
• Individuals with symptoms their provider suspects may relate to hormones or metabolism.
• People being monitored for a known endocrine or metabolic condition.
• Men experiencing changes associated with aging who want a broad workup.
• Anyone whose provider has recommended a comprehensive male hormone panel.

• Your provider may recommend a morning collection because hormone levels can vary through the day.
• Fasting may be requested for the insulin and metabolic markers; follow your provider's instructions.
• Tell your provider about any hormone medications or supplements you take.
• Avoid strenuous exercise and alcohol right before collection if your provider advises.

The report lists a separate value for each of the eighteen markers. Hormone markers help a provider assess testosterone signaling and pituitary and adrenal function, while insulin, hemoglobin A1c, and vitamin D add metabolic context. Individual values are not diagnostic on their own, because results vary with age, time of day, fasting state, and medications. A healthcare provider will interpret the panel as a whole with your symptoms. Discuss any abnormal or unexpected result with a healthcare provider before making changes.
