In the adult male, testosterone maintains the structure and function of the prostate, testes, seminal vesicles, and external male genitalia. In addition, testosterone affects lean body mass, bone density, hematopoiesis, libido and mood.

This test measures salivary testosterone levels, the principal androgen in men, and can allow for the detection of hormonal imbalances related to symptoms of male andropause, as well as those related to imbalanced testosterone commonly found in women. This test can be used to assess baseline levels and monitor testosterone replacement therapy.

"Watching my numbers move over the years — instead of forgetting last time's results — completely changed how I manage my health."

"Living across several countries made keeping my lab results organized a real challenge. Healthmatters brought my results from the USA, Spain, and Germany together — 20 years of history, with long-term trends instead of scattered reports."

"Standard lab ranges are too wide for how I practice — 'normal' isn't optimal. I set my own bands, so a client sees yellow before a marker goes officially out of range. That's the conversation I want to be having."
