₹2,250.00
Test Description: SHBG (Sex Hormone Binding Globulin) – Hormone Assay
The SHBG (Sex Hormone Binding Globulin) test measures the level of SHBG in the blood. SHBG is a protein produced by the liver that binds to sex hormones, such as testosterone and estrogen, making them inactive. This test is used to assess the amount of free or active sex hormones available in the body. Low SHBG levels can be associated with conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), obesity, and insulin resistance, while high levels may be linked to liver disease or hyperthyroidism. SHBG testing is often used to investigate hormone imbalances, fertility issues, or symptoms of hormone-related disorders.
