Hormone Testing
Hormones keep your body functioning at its best. Monitor your levels with fast, accurate hormone testing from Personalabs.
The Role of Hormone Testing
Metabolism. Mood regulation. Growth and development. Organ function. These are just a few of the many things hormones do in the human body. Hormones are produced by the endocrine system, which includes the thyroid, pituitary, and adrenal glands, the pancreas, the reproductive organs, and the hypothalamus region of the brain.
If any part of the endocrine system can’t produce sufficient hormone levels, your health and well-being can suffer. Hormone tests measure hormone levels to pinpoint potential issues. A test for hormone imbalance can also be used to develop a treatment plan that restores hormones to their proper levels.
Types of Hormone Blood Tests
Some hormone tests help diagnose diseases. Diabetes, for instance, is caused by the body’s inability to process or produce the insulin hormone to control blood sugar. We also offer sex-specific tests.
Our hormone tests for women can provide insight into health concerns such as fertility, osteoporosis, and menopause. Hormone tests for men can be used to measure testosterone levels for fertility, building muscle mass, sex drive, and more. You can also use hormonal imbalance tests to check the functioning of particular glands, such as the thyroid or pituitary.
Who Should Get Tested for Hormone Imbalance?
You may want to get tested if you have a family history of hormone-related disorders or diseases. Hormone testing may also be beneficial if you have symptoms associated with imbalances, including:
- Fatigue
- Unexplained weight gain or loss
- Pains or aches in the muscles or joints
- Changes in mood, such as anxiety or depression
- Cold or heat sensitivity
- Infertility
