This test measures the amount of free testosterone in your blood. Testosterone is the main sex hormone in males. It controls sex drive, maintains muscle mass, and helps in the production of sperm. Women also have testosterone in their bodies, but in much smaller amounts. A testosterone test may be used to diagnose conditions such as decreased sex drive, infertility, erectile dysfunction in men, and irregular menstrual periods in women. The levels are highest during early morning and lowest in the evening. Low testosterone levels can also lead to low sperm count, low sex drive, and hair loss. Men who are diagnosed with low testosterone levels may benefit from testosterone supplements.
It plays a vital role in the development and maintenance of sexual characteristics and reproductive function in both genders. Testosterone circulates in the bloodstream and can bind to two proteins: sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and albumin.
Free testosterone refers to the portion of testosterone that is not bound to SHBG or albumin, and it is the biologically active form of the hormone. Free testosterone is readily available to interact with cells and tissues in the body, influencing various physiological processes, including muscle mass, bone density, libido, mood regulation, and overall well-being.
Measurement of free testosterone levels through a blood test can provide valuable information about an individual's hormonal balance and hormone-related conditions. Low levels of free testosterone may be associated with symptoms such as decreased sex drive, fatigue, and mood changes. On the other hand, elevated levels of free testosterone may indicate conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in women or androgen excess in men.
However, it's important to note that interpreting free testosterone levels should be done in conjunction with other hormonal assessments and clinical evaluation. Hormone levels can vary throughout the day and may fluctuate due to various factors such as age, underlying medical conditions, and medications.
Consulting with a healthcare professional who can properly interpret the results and consider the individual's specific circumstances is crucial for understanding the significance of free testosterone levels and developing a personalized treatment plan if necessary.
