What do these tests mean?
Hormones
Testosterone (free and total): Vital for muscle mass, bone density, and sex drive — it makes effort feel good. Free testosterone provides the most accurate estimate of how much testosterone is actually available.
Estradiol: Important for reproductive and sexual health. It also helps protect and build bone mass.
DHEA Sulfate: Helps produce other hormones, including testosterone and estrogen.
LH and FSH: Pituitary hormones that regulate hormones that help control puberty, fertility, and sex hormone production. FSH stimulates egg or sperm production, while LH triggers ovulation and testosterone release.
Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG): SHBG (Sex Hormone Binding Globulin) is a protein that carries sex hormones like testosterone and estrogen in the blood and helps to regulate their tissue availability and metabolism.
Prostate-Specific Antigen (free and total): Used to screen for prostate cancer.
Metabolism
Comprehensive Metabolic Panel: Includes 14 biomarkers to test kidney and liver function, blood sugar levels, and electrolyte balance.
Thyroid
TSH (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone): Regulates thyroid function. This is the signal from the brain to the thyroid gland.
Thyroxine (T4) Free, Direct: The main hormone produced by the thyroid gland, precursor to T3.
xriiodothyronine (T3), Free: The active form of thyroid hormone that helps maintain metabolism and energy levels among many other functions.
Diabetes Risk
Hb A1c with eAG Estimation: Estimates average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months. eAG is an estimate of your average glucose level.
Insulin: Hormone that moves glucose into cells. Higher levels can indicate insulin resistance.
Nutrition and Anemia
Complete Blood Cell (CBC) report: This test counts the different types of cells in your blood, like red blood cells (carry oxygen), white blood cells (fight infection), and platelets (help stop bleeding).
Ferritin: Shows how much iron is stored in your body. Low levels may mean you’re low on iron.
Iron Serum, TIBC (Total Iron-Binding Capacity): Evaluates circulating iron and the blood’s capacity to bind and transport it — useful for assessing iron deficiency or overload.
Cardiac Health
Lipid panel: Provides information about lipoproteins and triglycerides which are commonly known as “cholesterol.”
C-Reactive Protein (hsCRP): A nonspecific marker of inflammation that can rise with poor diet quality, oxidative stress, or some chronic medical conditions. Useful for assessing how health conditions, nutrition, and lifestyle factors impact overall inflammatory status.
Who should take these tests?
This base panel is ideal for men looking to optimize their health, track hormone levels, and assess metabolic/cardiac risk.
