Male Hormone Panel

A four-biomarker male hormone panel measuring testosterone, sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), luteinising hormone (LH), and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). Requires a morning appointment before 10:30 for accurate testosterone measurement.

Testosterone levels in men follow a pronounced diurnal rhythm, peaking in the early morning and declining throughout the day. For this reason, OneDayClinic requires that male hormone panel appointments are scheduled before 10:30 to ensure the blood draw captures morning peak values, which are the clinical standard for testosterone assessment. The panel measures four interconnected hormones that together map the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. Total testosterone provides the headline number, while SHBG — the protein that binds testosterone in the bloodstream — determines how much is biologically available to tissues. Two men with identical total testosterone may have very different symptom profiles depending on their SHBG levels. LH and FSH are pituitary hormones that regulate testicular function; their levels help distinguish between primary gonadal issues and pituitary-driven hormonal patterns. This panel is designed for men experiencing symptoms that may be associated with hormonal variation — persistent fatigue, changes in body composition, reduced motivation or libido, mood fluctuations, or declining exercise recovery. The results provide a data-driven baseline for conversations with a GP or endocrinologist about whether further investigation or intervention is warranted.
