Thyroid Test:
Adding thyroid function testing, including TSH, fT3, fT4, and TPOab, to the male hormone and cortisol curve test provides a comprehensive assessment of endocrine health. Thyroid hormones significantly influence metabolism, energy, and mood. Thyroid dysfunction can exacerbate symptoms like fatigue, weight gain, and low energy, which can also be affected by hormonal imbalances and stress. Including thyroid testing allows for early detection of conditions like hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism and autoimmune thyroid diseases. This integrated approach ensures personalized interventions, optimizing hormone balance, stress management, and overall well-being, helping men achieve their health goals more effectively and maintain long-term health.
Additional Values Tested: TSH, fT3, fT4, TPOab
Stress Cycle
Adding a diurnal cortisol curve test to the male hormone test provides crucial insights into stress and adrenal health. By measuring cortisol levels at multiple points throughout the day, this test reveals patterns of adrenal function and chronic stress, which can impact testosterone, energy, mood, and overall well-being. Understanding cortisol fluctuations helps identify adrenal fatigue or chronic stress, allowing for targeted interventions such as stress management techniques, lifestyle changes, and personalized therapies.
Additional Values Tested: Cortisol X4
