DIAGNOSTIC OVERVIEW

DIAGNOSTIC OVERVIEW

What Men's Hormone Panel Is

This is a male hormone work-up from a single morning blood sample. It measures total testosterone with sex hormone binding globulin and calculated free testosterone, the pituitary hormones that drive testosterone production, and a set of related markers. Measuring the regulators alongside the hormone is what turns one number into an explanation.

Why it's worth it

The hormone and its regulators together.

Timed properly, so the numbers mean something.

A thirty minute clinician review, not an app score.

DIAGNOSTIC DETAILS

What it measures

The core orderable includes total testosterone, SHBG and calculated free testosterone, with luteinising hormone, follicle stimulating hormone, oestradiol, prolactin and DHEA-sulphate used as indicated. Total PSA is a separate shared-decision step based on age and risk, and every result is read with your history and examination.

Testosterone Free With SHBG

Total testosterone with SHBG, and calculated free testosterone, because how much is available to your body matters as well as how much is present.

Related Markers

Oestradiol, prolactin and DHEA-sulphate are measured alongside, since each can shift the picture in ways testosterone alone would not reveal.

The Regulators Above It

Luteinising and follicle stimulating hormone come from the pituitary and drive testosterone production, so measuring them helps show where a low reading originates.

Total PSA

A separate shared-decision test based on age and risk, discussed before ordering and interpreted in its own clinical context.

HOW IT WORKS

From booking to your results

A number on its own is not an explanation. Here is how a Men's Hormone Panel goes from a morning blood draw to a picture your clinician can interpret.

01

Speak with your clinician

This panel is clinician selected, so it starts with a conversation about your symptoms or history. It is not offered as routine optimisation testing.

02

Give your sample

Attend between 8 and 10 am, preferably fasting, at an SNP collection centre. A low testosterone result is repeated on another morning before it is confirmed.

03

Laboratory analysis

An accredited pathology laboratory measures Testosterone Free including SHBG, LH, FSH, oestradiol, prolactin and DHEA-S. PSA is ordered separately when agreed.

04

Results in the app

Your results are reviewed with a clinician against symptoms and ranges, with calculated free testosterone explained as derived.

05

Extended review

A thirty minute clinician appointment covers what the pattern suggests, what it does not, and whether any further assessment is appropriate.

"Men often arrive convinced their testosterone is the problem. Measuring the pituitary hormones alongside it is usually what shows whether that is the case, and often it is not."

FAQs

Your Questions, Answered

How do I book a test?

Choose your test and a time that suits you online, then visit one of our partner locations. If any preparation is needed, such as fasting, we tell you clearly when you book.

When and how do I get my results?

Your results appear in the Precursor app once your sample or scan has been processed, laid out in plain language rather than a wall of numbers. Turnaround depends on the test, and we give you a timeframe when you book.

Will someone explain my results to me?

Yes. A clinician reviews your results, flags anything worth your attention and helps you understand what they mean and what, if anything, to do next. You are never left to interpret them alone.

Where can I get tested?

We operate through partner locations across South East Queensland, including Brisbane, the Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast. You choose the most convenient one when you book.

Do I need to prepare or fast beforehand?

It depends on the test. Some require fasting or other simple preparation, and others need nothing at all. Whatever applies, we tell you clearly at the time you book so there are no surprises on the day.

Can I track my results over time?

Yes. The Precursor app is built to show change between tests, so each result becomes a trend you can follow rather than a one-off snapshot. Retesting lets you see the effect of any changes you make.

How is my data handled and kept private?

Your health data is handled with care and kept private. Results are stored securely in the Precursor app and shared only with you and the clinicians involved in your care.

What happens if something needs further attention?

If your results surface something worth acting on, your clinician explains it calmly and talks you through sensible next steps. The aim is early clarity and considered action, never unnecessary alarm.

What is a good BRI score?

There is no single answer, because it depends on your height and which guidance you are being measured against. This calculator converts the Australian waist thresholds into BRI at your own height, so your bands are specific to you. Most BRI tools use bands from an American mortality study, which produce noticeably different results for Australians.

Is BRI better than BMI?

It is better at one specific thing, which is detecting central fat, because it uses your waist. It is not better across the board. BMI is generally reliable when it flags someone, and research suggests the two measures agree in the large majority of cases. The useful comparison is not which one wins but whether they disagree about you.
