What do these tests mean?
Hormones
LH & FSH: Luteinizing Hormone (LH) and Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) are crucial for reproductive health and signal to your organs to release sex hormones
Testosterone Free and Total: Measures both free and total testosterone levels, essential for muscle mass, bone density, and overall health.
Estradiol: Measures levels of estradiol, a form of estrogen.
Prolactin: A hormone that can affect reproductive health and sexual function.
DHEA Sulfate: A precursor to sex hormones, important for overall hormonal balance.
Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG): A protein that binds to sex hormones, affecting their availability in the body.
Metabolism
Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (14 markers): Includes tests for kidney and liver function, blood sugar levels, and electrolyte balance.
Thyroxine (T4) Free, Direct: The main hormone produced by the thyroid gland, precursor to T3.
Triiodothyronine (T3), Free: The active form of thyroid hormone that helps maintain metabolism and energy levels among many other functions.
Diabetes Risk
HbA1c: Indicates average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months, used to diagnose and monitor diabetes.
Insulin: Measures insulin levels, important for diagnosing insulin resistance and diabetes.
Nutrition and Anemia
Complete Blood Cell (CBC) Report: Provides information on red and white blood cells and platelets, indicating overall health and detecting conditions like anemia.
Iron Serum, TIBC/UIBC: Measure iron levels and storage, important for diagnosing anemia and other conditions.
Ferritin: Shows how much iron is stored in your body.
Folate: Important for DNA synthesis and repair, and red blood cell formation.
Vitamin B12: Essential for nerve function, red blood cell production, and DNA synthesis.
Cardiac Health
Lipid Panel: This test measures cholesterol levels, including LDL (historically called “bad cholesterol”) and HDL (historically called “good cholesterol”).
C-Reactive Protein (CRP): Indicates inflammation in the body, which can be a marker for heart disease.
