Investigate the Causes of Erectile Dysfunction

The Impotence Profile is a detailed blood test designed to uncover the potential causes behind erectile dysfunction (ED) and related symptoms. By evaluating hormone levels, metabolic function, and cardiovascular health, this test provides a complete picture to help identify contributing factors and guide treatment.

Why Choose This Test?

Identifies hormonal imbalances like low testosterone or elevated prolactin

Evaluates metabolic health including blood glucose and lipid levels

Assesses thyroid and cardiovascular function, both of which can affect sexual performance

Supports early diagnosis and personalised treatment strategies for ED and low libido

This profile is ideal for individuals experiencing:

Erectile dysfunction (difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection)

Low libido or reduced sexual interest

Fatigue, mood changes, or signs of hormonal imbalance

Concerns about cholesterol, glucose, or cardiovascular health affecting sexual performance

What’s Measured in This Profile?

Hormonal Health

Testosterone – Primary male sex hormone

Free Testosterone (Calculated) – Active, bioavailable testosterone

Free Androgen Index (FAI) – Ratio of active testosterone to SHBG

Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) – Regulates testosterone availability

Prolactin (PRL) – Hormone that can impact sexual desire and function

Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) – Key for overall hormonal balance
