Description

Testosterone is the sex hormone produced by the testes in men. It doesn’t just concern men though – women also produce testosterone in their ovaries and adrenal glands but usually in smaller quantities.

Testosterone plays a key role in many essential body functions, such as sex drive (libido), energy levels, healthy bones, muscle mass, strength, and mood. It also controls sperm production, so changes in this hormone can affect your fertility.

From athletic performance and muscle strength to sex drive and fertility, your hormones can impact your health in many ways. Put your levels to the test with our at-home male hormone testing options.

How to use

For the best results, collect your sample before 10am.

If you have used one of your fingers to apply hormone gels/pessaries in the past 4 weeks, use a different finger to collect the sample. Ideally, use gloves for these creams in the 4 weeks prior to this test.

Do not take any biotin supplements for 2 days before this test. If your doctor has prescribed biotin, speak with them in advance
