Testosterone Total
The Total Testosterone test measures the overall level of testosterone in the blood, including both the bound and free forms of the hormone. Testosterone is a key sex hormone responsible for the development of male reproductive tissues, as well as influencing muscle mass, bone density, and red blood cell production.
In men, this test is commonly used to assess conditions like hypogonadism (low testosterone), infertility, erectile dysfunction, and symptoms related to aging. In women, it may be used to investigate symptoms like hirsutism (excessive hair growth), acne, and irregular periods, which could be linked to conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) .
The results of this test are typically interpreted alongside other hormone levels and clinical symptoms to determine the presence of any underlying conditions.
