What's included in this test?

Oestradiol

Oestradiol is a steroid hormone that is primarily produced in the ovaries of women and to a lesser extent in the testes of men. It is one of three types of estrogen and has important functions in regulating the female reproductive system, as well as promoting breast tissue growth and maintaining bone density. Oestradiol levels naturally fluctuate throughout the menstrual cycle, peaking at ovulation in pre-menopausal women. As women age, their oestradiol levels decrease and eventually stop altogether with menopause. Low levels of oestradiol can lead to symptoms commonly associated with menopause such as hot flushes, night sweats, and mood swings. Additionally, low levels of oestradiol can increase the risk of developing osteoporosis.

Testosterone

Testosterone is a hormone primarily responsible for male characteristics and is produced in the testicles of men, and to a much lesser extent, in the ovaries of women. It regulates sex drive and plays a crucial role in controlling bone mass, fat distribution, muscle mass, strength, as well as the production of red blood cells and sperm. Testosterone levels in men naturally decline after the age of 30, but lower than normal levels can occur at any age, causing symptoms such as low libido, erectile dysfunction, difficulty in gaining and maintaining muscle mass, and lack of energy. Women have much lower levels of testosterone than men, but it is equally important for regulating libido, muscle and fat distribution, and red blood cell formation. The normal reference range for testosterone levels varies slightly depending on the laboratory and population tested, but the British Society for Sexual Medicine recommends that low testosterone can be diagnosed when testosterone is consistently below the reference range, or when levels are below 12 nmol/L, especially in men who report symptoms of low testosterone or have low levels of free testosterone.

Sampling special instructions

Prepare for your Oestradiol and Testosterone Blood Test by following the instructions included in your test kit. Also, please take your sample before 10am. If you use hormone gels, pessaries, patches, or tablets, we strongly recommend selecting a venous sample to minimise the potential for contamination that can sometimes occur with finger-prick tests. Alternatively, if you administer hormone supplements, ensure that you use gloves and that your fingers have not been in contact with the supplements for at least four weeks prior to the test. Hormones can be absorbed deeply into the skin, even with minimal contact, and can remain present for weeks despite thorough handwashing. Do not take biotin supplements for two days before this test. If you are prescribed biotin, it is important to discuss this with your doctor to determine whether any adjustments to the timing of the test are necessary.
