The Andropause Profile is a comprehensive blood test specifically designed to assess hormone levels and metabolic factors related to andropause—commonly known as "male menopause." As men age, hormone fluctuations can impact mood, energy, libido, and overall health. This test helps identify those changes, offering insights that support diagnosis and management.

What’s Included in the Test?

Albumin – Evaluates general health and liver function.

Testosterone Free (Calculated) – Measures the bioavailable testosterone in your system.

Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate (DHEA-S) – Assesses adrenal function and hormone balance.

Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) – Important for hormone regulation and reproductive health.

Total Testosterone – The primary male hormone responsible for energy, libido, and muscle mass.

Free Androgen Index (FAI) – Indicates the ratio of active testosterone in relation to SHBG.

Luteinizing Hormone (LH) – Regulates testosterone production.

Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) – Controls the amount of free testosterone available.

Who Is This Test For?

This test is ideal for men experiencing:

Andropause symptoms – Fatigue, reduced libido, mood swings, or muscle loss.

Suspected hormonal imbalances – To check testosterone and related hormone levels.

Fertility concerns – To understand factors influencing reproductive health.

Metabolic or age-related changes – That may be affecting overall well-being.

What Can It Detect?
