Specialist Men’s Testosterone and TRT Eligibility Test
The Specialist Men's Testosterone & TRT (Testosterone Replacement Therapy) Eligibility Test is a
comprehensive blood test designed to assess testosterone levels, hormone balance, and overall
health. It helps determine whether low testosterone may be affecting well-being and whether TRT
may be a suitable option.
- Testosterone (Total & Free): Measures overall and bioavailable testosterone levels to assess
deficiencies.
- Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin (SHBG): Regulates free testosterone availability in the body.
- Oestradiol (Estrogen): Helps assess hormone balance, as excess estrogen can impact
testosterone function.
- Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) & Luteinizing Hormone (LH): Evaluate testicular function and
testosterone production.
- DHEA-S (Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate): A precursor hormone that supports testosterone
production.
- Prolactin: High levels can suppress testosterone production and indicate underlying issues.
- Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA): Assesses prostate health, which is crucial for men considering
TRT.
- Thyroid Function (FT4, TSH): Evaluates thyroid health, as thyroid imbalances can affect
testosterone levels.
- Lipids (Cholesterol & Triglycerides): Measures heart disease risk, which is important for those
considering TRT.
- Liver Function (LFT - Liver Function Test): Ensures liver health, as TRT can impact liver enzymes.
- Kidney Function (UE - Urea & Electrolytes): Checks kidney health, important for overall metabolic
function.
- Blood Sugar (HbA1c): Assesses diabetes risk, which can influence hormone levels and overall
health.
- Full Blood Count (FBC): Evaluates red and white blood cells to check for anemia, infections, or
other health concerns.
This test is ideal for men experiencing symptoms of low testosterone, such as:
- Fatigue
- Low libido
- Reduced muscle mass
- Mood swings
- Difficulty concentrating
It is also recommended for men considering TRT who need a comprehensive health assessment
before starting treatment.
Unlike basic testosterone tests that only measure total testosterone, this specialist test includes:
- Free testosterone
- Hormone regulators (FSH, LH, SHBG, prolactin)
- Prostate health markers (PSA)
- Key metabolic markers
Ensuring a complete evaluation for TRT eligibility.
- Fasting for 8-12 hours is recommended for accurate lipid and blood sugar readings.
- The test should ideally be taken in the morning when testosterone levels are highest.
- If you take any medications or supplements, consult your healthcare provider about their potential
impact on results.
