A testosterone level test measures the amount of testosterone, a hormone that affects sex drive, muscle mass, and mood, in your blood. It is ordered to evaluate symptoms like low energy, infertility, or erectile difficulties, or to monitor hormone therapy.

What it measures

  • Total testosterone — The main measure of all testosterone in your blood.
  • Free testosterone — The small portion not attached to proteins, which is active in your body.
  • Bioavailable testosterone — Testosterone that is loosely bound and easily used by tissues.
  • SHBG (sex hormone-binding globulin) — A protein that binds testosterone and can affect total levels.
  • Albumin — Another protein that binds hormones; sometimes checked with SHBG.

Who it is for

Doctors typically order this test for men with symptoms of low testosterone, such as fatigue or reduced sex drive, and for women with excess hair growth or irregular periods. It may also be used to monitor testosterone therapy.

Preparation

Fasting is not usually required. Because testosterone levels are highest in the morning, your doctor may ask you to have the blood drawn before 10 a.m. Tell your provider about any medications or supplements you take.

Results and what they mean

Results are reported as a number in nanograms per deciliter (ng/dL) or similar units, alongside a reference range. Your clinician interprets the result based on your age, sex, symptoms, and other tests. This is general information only and not medical advice; discuss your results with a qualified healthcare provider.
