FAQs
Common questions.
How long do Testosterone Monitoring results take?
Testosterone Monitoring results are typically delivered within 2 working days of the laboratory receiving your sample. You receive a plain English PDF report.
How is the sample collected for Testosterone Monitoring?
This panel requires a venous blood draw at a Chxhealth or partner clinic. The phlebotomy fee is included in the price. Choose our Lanchester clinic or one of our 50+ UK partner and pop-up clinics when you book.
What time of day should I test testosterone?
Between 8am and 10am after a 12 hour fast. Testosterone levels naturally peak in the morning and drop through the day, so afternoon readings can be 20 to 30 percent lower and are not directly comparable. Your booking confirmation will recommend morning slots.
What does the panel include beyond total testosterone?
The panel covers total testosterone alongside SHBG (sex hormone binding globulin), which together give the free androgen index. This is a more useful clinical picture than total testosterone alone. Read more in our testosterone glossary entry.
Is this panel suitable for monitoring TRT?
Many people on testosterone replacement therapy use this panel to track total testosterone levels over time. Chxhealth is a biomarker and genetic data provider. We do not diagnose, treat or prescribe. For medical advice, please speak to a qualified healthcare professional. Any TRT decisions should be made with the clinician managing your treatment.
