Product Name: Testosterone test kit(Magnetic Solid Phase Chemiluminescent Immunoassay)
Packaging: 24 T/KIT
Purpose of the test
The purpose of testosterone testing is to evaluate the amount of testosterone in the blood. Testosterone levels that are outside of a normal range can cause changes to health and physical appearance. Measuring testosterone can be helpful in diagnosing medical conditions or monitoring a patient’s response to therapy:
Diagnosis: Doctors may check testosterone levels to determine the cause of a persons’ symptoms. Testing can help identify testosterone deficiency or an elevated level of testosterone. Testosterone tests may be part of assessing patients with health conditions that can affect hormone levels.
Monitoring: Monitoring is how doctors follow a patient’s health over time. In people who have had abnormal testosterone tests in the past, follow-up testing may be used to track their testosterone levels.
Testosterone tests can also be used to monitor the health of transgender men. Transgender men are people who were assigned female at birth but identify as male. Some transgender men may choose to take hormone therapy to change their physical appearance to match their gender identity. Doctors may monitor testosterone levels in this group of men to ensure testosterone levels are maintained at a certain level.
