What is being tested?

Testosterone Free and Total Testosterone

This testosterone blood test measures the total amount testosterone that is bound to proteins in the blood as well as testosterone that is not bound (free testosterone), providing a complete analysis of all testosterone levels. Approximately two-thirds of testosterone circulates in the blood bound to SHBG and less than one-third is bound to albumin. A small percent (less than 4 percent) circulates in the blood as free testosterone.

Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP):
Glucose – energy source for the body; a steady supply must be available for use, and a relatively constant level of glucose must be maintained in the blood.
Calcium – one of the most important minerals in the body; it is essential for the proper functioning of muscles, nerves, and the heart and is required in blood clotting and in the formation of bones.
Albumin – a small protein produced in the liver; the major protein in serum
Total Protein – measures albumin as well as all other proteins in serum
Sodium – vital to normal body processes, including nerve and muscle function
Potassium – vital to cell metabolism and muscle function
CO2 (carbon dioxide, bicarbonate) – helps to maintain the body’s acid-base balance (pH)
Chloride – helps to regulate the amount of fluid in the body and maintain the acid-base balance
BUN (blood urea nitrogen) – waste product filtered out of the blood by the kidneys; conditions that affect the kidney have the potential to affect the amount of urea in the blood.
Creatinine – waste product produced in the muscles; it is filtered out of the blood by the kidneys so blood levels are a good indication of how well the kidneys are working.
ALP (alkaline phosphatase) – enzyme found in the liver and other tissues, bone; elevated levels of ALP in the blood are most commonly caused by liver disease or bone disorders.
ALT (alanine amino transferase, also called SGPT) – enzyme found mostly in the cells of the liver and kidney; a useful test for detecting liver damage
AST (aspartate amino transferase, also called SGOT) – enzyme found especially in cells in the heart and liver; also a useful test for detecting liver damage
Bilirubin – waste product produced by the liver as it breaks down and recycles aged red blood cells
Complete Blood Count (CBC) with Differential & Platelets Testing:
Red Blood Cell Count – This measures the complete amount of red blood cells in the blood.
White Blood Cell Count – Measures how many white blood cells are in the blood.
Platelet Count – Determines how many platelets are in your blood.
Percentage and Absolute White Blood Cell Differential Counts – This part of the test provides the relative percentage of each type of white blood cells to the total, as well as a count of each type of these white blood cells.
Red Cell Distribution Width (RDW) – Provides the range of sizes of the red blood cells in the sample.
Hemoglobin – Measures the amount of hemoglobin in the blood. Hemoglobin the protein in red blood cells responsible for transporting oxygen, and for blood’s red color. A healthy individual has 12 to 16 grams of hemoglobin in every 100 ml of blood.
Hematocrit – The hematocrit portion of this test measures the proportion of the blood that is red blood cells. About 38.8 to 50 percent of the blood in men should be red blood cells and between 34.9 to 44.5 percent for women.
Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV) – This portion of the CBC test provides the average size of your red blood cells.
Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin (MCH) – An MCH value is the average amount of hemoglobin found in a red blood cell. An MCH value should fall between 27.5 and 33.2 picograms (pg).
Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration (MCHC) – The mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) test measures the average concentration of hemoglobin in your red blood cells.T

The Lipid Panel:
The Lipid Panel is used to measure overall cholesterol levels in the body. Lipids are various forms of fat in the body and include cholesterol types. Higher levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL, also known as “bad cholesterol”) are associated with increased risk of heart attack.
LDL helps cause atherosclerosis, a hardening of the veins that leads to plaque build-up and heart attacks. This lipid panel measures levels of: Total Cholesterol, HDL – “Good Cholesterol”, LDL – “Bad Cholesterol”, and Triglycerides.

Description

It is not uncommon for men to discover for themselves that they no longer have the energy, stamina, muscle tone, or enthusiasm they once had … and they want it back.

Low testosterone can occur at any age. Whether young, middle-aged, or senior, there’s no reason why you should let unbalanced hormones diminish your sexual life.
Testosterone therapy can restore healthy sexual excitement and desire, which in turn, results in an improvement in mood and overall well-being.

The results of this test will enable us to pinpoint hormonal imbalances or deficiencies. This is where experience with hormones really counts. If indicated, our specialist will prescribe Bio-Identical Hormones in the precise dosage you require.
With this special, we will include a comprehensive panel of testing and a 15 min Evaluation of your labs with one of our specializing medical practitioners.
