You can have a Testosterone test done at home with Aims Healthcare
Testosterone is a hormone that can be present in both humans and animals. Testicles are the main source of testosterone in males. The ovaries of women produce testosterone as well but in far smaller quantities. Testosterone development begins to rise during puberty and gradually decreases after the age of 30.
Testosterone is linked to sexual desire and is important for sperm production. It also has an effect on men’s bone and muscle mass, as well as how they store fat in their bodies and red blood cell development. The amount of testosterone in a man’s body may have an effect on his mood.
What is a Testosterone test?
In males, testosterone is the primary sex hormone. During puberty, testosterone causes a boy’s body hair to expand, muscles to develop, and his voice to deepen. It regulates sex drive, retains muscle mass, and aids sperm production in adult males. Women’s bodies contain testosterone as well but in much smaller quantities.
This test determines how much testosterone is present in your blood. The accumulation of testosterone in the blood is protein-bound. Free testosterone is testosterone that has not been bound to a protein. Tests for testosterone are divided into two categories.
- Total testosterone, which includes both attached and free testosterone, is a measurement of both.
- Free testosterone is a procedure that only tests free testosterone.
In both women and men, testosterone levels that are too little (low T) or too strong (high T) can lead to health problems.

Testosterone Test - Frequently Asked Questions
If you have signs of elevated testosterone levels, you may need this test. It’s usually ordered for adult men if they have signs of low T levels. It’s usually ordered for women if they have signs of elevated T levels.
Low T levels in men can cause a variety of symptoms:
- Drive for low sex
- Having trouble having an erection
- Breast tissue development
- Fertility issues
- Hair loss is a common problem
- Bones that are weak
- Muscle mass is lost
High T levels in women can cause the following symptoms:
- Hair growth on the body and on the face that is excessive
- Speech reverberation
- Inconsistent menstruation
- Acne is a skin condition that occurs
- Gaining weight
A testosterone level test may also be required for boys. Delay in puberty in boys can be a sign of low T, while early puberty can be a sign of high T.
A testosterone level test does not necessitate any special preparations, though fasting morning levels are favored.
Simple total testosterone tests (immunoassays, automated platform immunoassays) are commonly thought to be accurate enough for detecting testosterone deficiency in men, as their findings are comparable to those obtained using liquid or gas chromatography, tandem mass spectrometry, and other methods (the gold standard or most accurate measure of total testosterone).However, these basic tests consistently produce lower results than the gold standard, making it difficult to diagnose men with moderate hypogonadism (testosterone levels in the upper range of hypogonadal levels).
