The Comprehensive Male Hormone Blood Test Panel measures several hormones that help assess male reproductive and general health. It is often ordered when a man has symptoms such as low energy, reduced sex drive, or fertility concerns.
What it measures
- Total Testosterone — The main male sex hormone, measured as total amount in the blood.
- Free Testosterone — The portion of testosterone not bound to proteins, which is active in the body.
- Luteinizing Hormone (LH) — A pituitary hormone that signals the testes to make testosterone.
- Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) — A pituitary hormone that helps control sperm production.
- Estradiol — A form of estrogen that men also produce in small amounts.
- Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) — A protein that binds to testosterone and affects how much is free.
Who it is for
A doctor or other clinician typically orders this panel for men who have symptoms of hormone imbalance or are being evaluated for fertility issues.

Results and what they mean
Results are reported as numbers for each hormone, often with a reference range. Your clinician will interpret them along with your symptoms and history. This is general information, not medical advice.
