The HRT - Male Performance Panel panel contains 14 tests with 78 biomarkers .
Maintaining optimal male health requires more than just regular exercise and a balanced diet; it requires a thorough understanding of your body's unique biochemical landscape.
The HRT - Male Performance Panel from Ulta Lab Tests provides a comprehensive assessment specifically designed for men considering or currently using hormone replacement therapy (HRT). This detailed panel evaluates various biomarkers that influence male performance, vitality, and overall health. Understanding these factors can help in effectively managing and optimizing male hormonal health.
Key Tests Included in the HRT - Male Performance Panel and Their Importance:
-
Bilirubin, Fractionated: This test measures both direct and indirect bilirubin levels, providing insights into liver function and the body’s ability to process waste products. Elevated levels might indicate liver issues or bile duct problems, which are crucial for men on HRT as they could impact hormone metabolism.
-
CBC (Complete Blood Count, includes Differential and Platelets): Essential for assessing overall health, a CBC can detect a range of disorders including anemia, infection, and other hematological conditions. For men on HRT, it's crucial to monitor how therapy is influencing blood cell levels.
-
Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP): This panel checks for levels of glucose, electrolytes, kidney and liver markers. It helps determine the body's chemical balance and metabolism, which is vital for those undergoing HRT as changes in metabolism can affect the efficacy and safety of the treatment.
-
Cortisol, Total: Measures the stress hormone, which can impact testosterone levels and overall hormonal balance. Understanding cortisol levels can help tailor HRT to minimize negative effects on stress response and adrenal function.
-
Estradiol: An important estrogen hormone in men that helps regulate libido, erectile function, and sperm production. Monitoring estradiol is crucial in HRT to maintain balance and avoid side effects such as gynecomastia or erectile dysfunction.
-
Hemoglobin A1c (HgbA1C): Provides an average of your blood sugar control over the last 2 to 3 months. For men on HRT, particularly those with diabetes or borderline diabetic conditions, monitoring blood sugar levels is vital as hormonal changes can impact glucose metabolism.
-
IGF-I, LC/MS (Insulin-like Growth Factor 1): Important for muscle growth and development, IGF-I levels can influence how well the body responds to physical training and muscle repair, factors important in the context of HRT.
-
Insulin: This test helps assess insulin production and blood sugar regulation. Since testosterone can affect insulin sensitivity, men on HRT need to monitor these levels closely to prevent metabolic disorders.
-
Lipid Panel with Ratios: Assesses risk for coronary artery disease by measuring cholesterol levels and types. Hormonal imbalances can influence lipid metabolism, making this test critical for men undergoing HRT.
-
PSA Total (Prostate-Specific Antigen): Monitoring PSA levels is essential for detecting early signs of prostate enlargement or cancer, which can be influenced by testosterone levels in HRT.
-
T3, Free and T4, Free: These thyroid tests are important as thyroid function can interact with hormone therapy, influencing energy levels, metabolism, and mood.
-
Testosterone, Total, Free, and Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG): Core to any male performance panel, these tests measure the active and total levels of testosterone and the proteins that bind testosterone in the blood, providing a comprehensive overview of male hormonal status.
-
TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone): Guides the function of the thyroid gland; critical for regulating metabolism, energy, and overall hormonal health. Changes in TSH can affect the effectiveness of HRT.
Symptoms to Recognize:
- Decreased libido or sexual dysfunction
- Fatigue or low energy levels
- Muscle weakness or loss of muscle mass
- Increased body fat, particularly around the abdomen
- Mood swings or depression
- Insomnia or changes in sleep patterns
- Hair loss or thinning
