Hormone Health Markers

Blood markers measuring hormone levels including thyroid function, sex hormones, adrenal hormones, and reproductive health indicators.

16 biomarkers

About Hormone Health Markers

Hormone health markers encompass a wide range of biomarkers that assess the function of your endocrine system. This includes thyroid hormones (TSH, FT3, FT4), sex hormones (testosterone, estrogen, progesterone), adrenal hormones (cortisol, DHEA-S), and reproductive hormones (FSH, LH, AMH).

Hormonal balance is crucial for energy, mood, metabolism, fertility, and overall quality of life. Imbalances can manifest as fatigue, weight changes, mood disturbances, reduced libido, menstrual irregularities, and many other symptoms. Regular hormone testing helps identify issues early and guides appropriate treatment.

FT3 (Free Triiodothyronine)

pmol/L

The unbound, biologically active form of T3, the most potent thyroid hormone.

Learn more

Progesterone

nmol/L

A hormone produced mainly by the ovaries that prepares the uterus for pregnancy.

Learn more

Prolactin

mIU/L

A hormone best known for stimulating milk production.

Learn more

SHBG (Sex Hormone Binding Globulin)

nmol/L

A protein that binds to sex hormones, controlling their availability to tissues.

Learn more

T4 (Thyroxine)

pmol/L

The main hormone produced by the thyroid gland.

Learn more

Testosterone

nmol/L

The primary male sex hormone also present in females.

Learn more

TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone)

mIU/L

A pituitary hormone that regulates thyroid function.

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time to test hormone levels?
Testosterone should be tested in the morning (7-10 AM) when levels peak. Female hormones vary by cycle day - FSH and estradiol on days 2-5, progesterone around day 21. Thyroid markers can be tested any time.
What symptoms indicate hormone imbalance?
Common symptoms include fatigue, unexplained weight changes, mood swings, low libido, hair loss, sleep disturbances, irregular menstrual cycles, and difficulty building muscle or losing fat.
How do thyroid hormones affect the body?
Thyroid hormones regulate metabolism, energy production, body temperature, heart rate, and mood. Too little (hypothyroidism) causes fatigue and weight gain; too much (hyperthyroidism) causes anxiety and weight loss.
Should I test all thyroid markers or just TSH?
While TSH is the standard screening test, a full panel including Free T3, Free T4, and thyroid antibodies provides a more complete picture, especially if you have symptoms despite normal TSH.
