Functional Tests

Male Blood Profile II (E2, E1, E3, Pg, T, DS, C, SHBG, PSA, TSH, fT3, fT4, TT4, Tgbn & TPOab)

Overview

Male Blood Profile II measures oestradiol, testosterone, sex hormone binding globulin, DHEA-S, cortisol, prostate specific antigen, free T4, free T3, thyroid stimulating hormone and thyroid peroxidase antibodies using dried blood spot sampling. This panel brings together markers from testicular, adrenal and thyroid hormone systems within a single blood-based assessment.

This test may be clinically useful when hormone-related symptoms span energy, mood, sexual function, sleep, body composition or metabolic concerns. Assessing these markers together allows practitioners to observe how different hormone groups align, rather than reviewing each system in isolation.

Practitioners typically interpret results alongside age and life stage, stress exposure, medication or hormone use, diet, physical activity and other relevant laboratory findings. This integrated approach supports informed discussions with clients about hormone-related patterns and day-to-day health experiences.
