Testosterone - Total Test at Home in Dubai
Also known as: TESTOSTERONE
Included
About the Test
Total Testosterone measures the overall level of the main male sex hormone in the blood, counting both the fraction bound to proteins and the small free portion. In men it helps investigate low energy, reduced libido, erectile difficulty or fertility concerns, while in women it can be checked for irregular periods, acne, excess hair growth or suspected PCOS. Because levels naturally fall through the day, samples are usually taken in the morning for the most reliable reading.
What is it? Total Testosterone measures the total amount of the testosterone hormone in the blood, both protein-bound and free.

Understanding your Testosterone - Total results
A low Total Testosterone in men may explain symptoms such as fatigue or low libido, while a raised level in women can be linked to conditions like PCOS, and results are always read against age, sex and time of day. Discuss the meaning with a doctor, who may add Free Testosterone or other hormones.
