Blood tests for hormone testing help evaluate the balance and function of various hormones in the body. Common tests include cortisol to assess stress and adrenal function, a thyroid panel (TSH, Free T3, Free T4) for thyroid health, and estradiol and progesterone for reproductive and menopausal status in women. Testosterone (total and free) is measured in both men and women to evaluate energy, libido, and muscle mass. Other important tests include DHEA-S for adrenal health, FSH and LH for reproductive function, prolactin for pituitary activity, and insulin with fasting glucose to assess metabolic and hormonal interactions. All of these tests can be tested publicly through APL (Alberta Precision Laboratories). This can also be tested through private companies such as ‘Genova Diagnostics 1-Day Hormone Check’
