•Testosterone: The primary male sex hormone that regulates sex drive, bone mass, fat distribution, muscle mass, strength, and the production of red blood cells and sperm. In women, testosterone contributes to bone strength, muscle mass, and libido, though at lower levels than in men.
This test measures the total testosterone level in your blood. Testosterone is a steroid hormone primarily produced in the testes in men and in smaller amounts in the ovaries in women. It plays a crucial role in male development and reproductive function, as well as maintaining muscle mass, bone density, and red blood cell production. Abnormal testosterone levels can significantly impact your physical health, mental wellbeing, and quality of life, making this test an important tool for monitoring hormonal balance.

Testosterone levels naturally decline with age in men, typically by about 1% per year after age 30. A normal testosterone level for adult men is around 8.7–29 nmol/L (250–836 ng/dL), while for women, normal levels are much lower, typically between 0.5-2.4 nmol/L. Levels outside these ranges may indicate hormonal imbalances that could be affecting your health and wellbeing. Testosterone production follows a daily rhythm, with levels typically highest in the morning and lowest in the evening, which is why morning testing is recommended for the most accurate baseline measurement. Factors such as stress, obesity, certain medications, and chronic illness can all impact testosterone production and should be considered when interpreting results.
This test provides a snapshot of your testosterone level at a single point in time. Testosterone levels can fluctuate throughout the day and in response to various factors including stress, sleep quality, and physical activity. For the most accurate results, we recommend collecting your sample in the morning when testosterone levels are typically at their highest. Additionally, a single testosterone measurement may not provide a complete picture of your hormonal health, and follow-up testing or additional hormone panels may be recommended based on your results and symptoms. Results should always be interpreted in the context of your complete medical history and current health status.
This test is not suitable for anyone currently taking testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) or anabolic steroids, as these will affect the results and provide an inaccurate reading of your natural testosterone production. If you're currently on TRT, we recommend our specialized TRT Monitoring Test instead. Additionally, if you're taking medications that affect hormone levels, such as certain anti-seizure medications, opioids, or glucocorticoids, please consult with your doctor before taking this test as these may impact your results. This test is not designed to diagnose specific medical conditions without clinical correlation and should not replace consultation with a healthcare professional.
For the most accurate results, we recommend collecting your sample in the morning, ideally between 7-10am when testosterone levels are at their highest.
While our finger-prick tests are generally accurate, for testosterone testing specifically, we recommend a venous blood draw for the most reliable results. Testosterone levels can be more accurately measured from venous blood samples.
A normal testosterone level for adult men is around 8.7–29 nmol/L (250–836 ng/dL). For women, normal levels are much lower, typically between 0.5-2.4 nmol/L. However, what's "normal" can vary based on age, sex, and individual factors.
Fasting is not essential for testosterone testing, but avoiding biotin supplements, alcohol, and heavy exercise the day before testing can help ensure reliable results.
For monitoring purposes, we recommend retesting every 3-6 months, or as advised by your healthcare provider. If you make lifestyle changes or start any treatments, testing after 3 months can help assess their effectiveness.
Yes, this test is suitable for both men and women. While testosterone is often associated with men, it plays important roles in women's health too, including bone density, muscle strength, and libido. Women with symptoms like irregular periods, excess body hair, or acne may benefit from checking their testosterone levels.
A normal testosterone level for adult men is around 8.7–29 nmol/L (250–836 ng/dL). Most UK laboratories will use reference intervals similar to this. These values don’t take your symptoms, baseline levels, or age-related decline into account. But your doctor will consider this when interpreting your levels. If your testosterone levels are less than 12 nmol/L and you have symptoms, you may benefit from testosterone replacement therapy (TRT).
A 2022 study looked at testosterone levels of 1,486 men between the ages of 20 and 44 [6]. To calculate the normal testosterone level for each age bracket, they took the middle third and labelled these as normal results (according to the American Urological Association’s definition of normal testosterone):
Age | Testosterone (nmol/L) | Testosterone (ng/dL) |
20–24 | 14.2–19.3 | 409–558 |
25–30 | 14.3–19.9 | 413–575 |
30–34 | 12.4–17.3 | 359–498 |
35–40 | 12.2–16.5 | 352–478 |
40–44 | 12.1–16.4 | 350–473 |
