Testosterone Level Assessment

In males, it is produced primarily by the testicles.  In females, it is produced by the ovaries and adrenal glands. Your level of testosterone will vary depending on your age, sex, genetics, and environmental factors.

What conditions can testosterone levels help identify?

​

Males – low testosterone levels can cause erectile dysfunction, infertility, and low sex drive.

Females – high testosterone levels can cause acne, excess hair, and irregular periods.

 

The advantage of hair testing for testosterone levels?

Blood and saliva samples reflect current levels in the body.  Hormones can fluctuate throughout the day, or at different times of the menstrual cycle. Hair analysis provides a retrospective blended average of free testosterone available to the body over a period of up to 3 months. This technique provides a longer-term perspective that can allow for a better assessment of insufficiency.
