This test is aimed at adult males on long‑term testosterone replacement who want to track therapy effectiveness and ensure their prostate markers stay within a safe range. It uses a venous blood draw and returns results within a typical laboratory turnaround time.
About this treatment
The Male Testosterone Annual Monitoring (RDX_214) is a focused three‑analyte blood test created for men who have completed a minimum of 12 months of testosterone replacement therapy. By quantifying total testosterone, SHBG and PSA, the panel provides insight into how well the therapy is maintaining physiological hormone levels while also keeping an eye on prostate health, which may be influenced by androgen exposure.

Biomarkers tested
3A protein produced by prostate cells. Elevated PSA can indicate prostate cancer, but also benign prostate enlargement, prostatitis, or recent ejaculation. PSA velocity (rate of change) and PSA density add diagnostic value.
A protein that binds and transports sex hormones (testosterone, estrogen) in the blood. High SHBG reduces the amount of free, active hormones available. SHBG increases with age, thyroid hormones, and estrogen; decreases with obesity and insulin resistance.
The primary male sex hormone, also important in women at lower levels. Testosterone regulates muscle mass, bone density, fat distribution, libido, and mood. Levels decline naturally with age in both sexes.
