The key male hormones include testosterone, luteinising hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). Male hormone imblanace can cause decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, low energy, difficulty building muscle and poor metabolic health. Around 1-in-4 men over the age of 40 have low testosterone levels.
Checking your male hormone levels is important if you have any of these symptoms and should also be part of the annual blood tests for men over the age of 40.
Testosterone is the main sex hormone in men.
Testosterone is bound to proteins in the blood which inactivate it. We can account for this to calculate the amount of "free" testosterone which is actually available for your body. This is a more accurate measure than testosterone alone.
WHAT'S MEASURED?
