Who it's for

When testosterone might be part of the picture

Testosterone declines gradually with age, and symptoms of low testosterone are easily missed. This panel is a sensible step if any of these sound familiar.

Low energy & drive

Persistent fatigue, low mood or reduced motivation that hasn't responded to rest.

Reduced libido

A drop in sex drive or erectile difficulties that may have a hormonal cause.

Loss of muscle

Difficulty building or holding muscle, or a change in body composition.

On TRT

Already on testosterone replacement therapy and needing regular monitoring.

Men over 40

Noticing unexplained fatigue or a loss of vitality and wanting a clear answer.

Athletes

Monitoring androgen status as part of structured training and recovery.

What we check

Not just total testosterone — the active fraction too

A total testosterone level alone can be misleading. This panel calculates how much testosterone is actually available to your body, which gives a far clearer picture.

Total testosterone

The headline level of testosterone in your blood — the starting point for assessing low testosterone.

1 marker

Free testosterone

The calculated portion of testosterone that is biologically active — often more revealing than the total alone.

1 marker

SHBG

Sex hormone binding globulin controls how much testosterone is available; raised SHBG can mask a deficiency.

1 marker

Free androgen index

A calculated ratio that summarises your available testosterone in a single, easy-to-track number.

1 marker

Albumin

A binding protein used in the free-testosterone calculation, giving the most accurate available estimate.

1 marker

TRT monitoring

The same markers make this panel ideal for checking that testosterone replacement therapy stays in range.

Frequently asked questions

Your questions, answered

What does the testosterone monitoring blood test include?
It measures total testosterone, calculated free testosterone, sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), the free androgen index and albumin. Together these show how much biologically active testosterone you have, which can help identify or rule out low testosterone. Every result is reviewed by a clinician.
When should I take this test?
Testosterone is highest in the morning, so a morning appointment gives the most reliable reading. Our team will confirm timing and any preparation when you book.
How long do results take?
We process your sample promptly and contact you as soon as your clinician-reviewed results are ready — turnaround varies by test. Every result is reviewed by a clinician, who flags anything outside the normal range with a clear explanation and guidance on sensible next steps.
Do I need a GP referral?
No referral is needed. You can book directly online or by calling 0121 387 3727. Same-week appointments are available 7 days a week, 8am to 8pm.
Can I use this to monitor TRT?
Yes. This panel is commonly used to monitor testosterone replacement therapy, helping confirm your level sits in the intended range. It is a screening and monitoring investigation and is not a substitute for advice from your prescriber — a clinician reviews every result and explains what it means.
Can I claim this on private health insurance?
Self-funded blood tests are usually paid for directly rather than through insurance, as most insurers require a referral first. If you would like to use insurance, call us on 0121 387 3727 and our team will advise on the best route for your policy.
