What this test measures

The Men's Advanced Health Panel is a comprehensive blood test that evaluates multiple aspects of men's health through 14 essential biomarkers. This panel combines multiple essential lab tests including a Complete Blood Count (CBC), Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP), lipid analysis, and hormone assessments to evaluate how the body's major organs and systems are functioning together. The panel includes cardiovascular risk markers like lipid levels and ApoB, metabolic health indicators such as glucose and insulin, hormone levels including testosterone and thyroid function, and nutritional status through vitamin testing.

Metabolic markers like hemoglobin A1c, glucose level tests, and a basic lipid panel are essential to understand how the body processes nutrients, with high levels in any of these tests showing that the body isn't processing glucose properly. The thyroid panel shows how the thyroid is producing and reacting to certain hormones such as TSH, which helps regulate metabolism, heart rate, and body temperature, with irregular levels potentially indicating numerous conditions. The panel also measures stress hormones like cortisol and DHEA-S, prostate health through PSA testing, and essential vitamins that support overall health and energy production.

Who should consider this test

You might consider this test if you are experiencing any of the following:

  • Men over 30 who want a comprehensive baseline assessment of their health, particularly those with no recent lab work or family history of chronic diseases.
  • Individuals experiencing symptoms such as fatigue, weight changes, mood fluctuations, or decreased energy that could indicate hormonal imbalances or metabolic dysfunction.
  • Men with risk factors for heart disease, diabetes, or metabolic syndrome, including those with family history, sedentary lifestyle, or poor dietary habits.
  • Those interested in preventive health screening to detect early signs of common men's health issues before symptoms develop.
  • Men considering or currently on hormone replacement therapy who need comprehensive monitoring of testosterone levels and related health markers.
  • Individuals with demanding careers or high stress levels who want to monitor stress hormones and their impact on overall health and performance.
  • Men who want to optimize their health and fitness goals through detailed understanding of their metabolic, hormonal, and nutritional status.

What to expect

Preparation

Fast for 9-12 hours before your appointment, avoiding all food and drinks except water. Avoid alcohol for 24 hours prior to testing. Schedule your appointment for morning hours when possible, as hormone levels are typically highest and most stable in the early morning.

Sample Type

A trained phlebotomist will collect a blood sample through a simple venipuncture, typically from a vein in your arm. The entire collection process takes about 5-10 minutes and involves minimal discomfort.

Collection

Check in at your chosen lab location with a valid ID and your test requisition. The phlebotomist will verify your identity, explain the process, and collect the required blood sample. No doctor visit required.

Turnaround

Results are typically available within 1-3 business days and will be securely delivered to your online account with easy-to-understand explanations of each biomarker.

Understanding your results

A comprehensive metabolic panel gives healthcare providers a picture of overall physical health and can help diagnose, screen for or monitor certain health conditions. Your results will include reference ranges for each biomarker, with values marked as normal, high, or low based on established medical standards.

PopulationReference RangeNotes
Adult Males (19-39 years)Testosterone: 264-916 ng/dLTestosterone levels naturally decline with age and vary throughout the day
Men 40-49 yearsPSA: 0-2.5 ng/mLPSA levels increase with age as prostate naturally enlarges
Men 50-59 yearsPSA: 0-3.5 ng/mLAge-specific ranges help distinguish normal aging from potential issues
AdultsVitamin D: 30-100 ng/mLOptimal levels may be higher than minimum sufficiency thresholds

Reference ranges may vary by laboratory and individual factors. Results should be interpreted by a healthcare provider in the context of your overall health.

What does a “Low” result mean?

Low levels of key biomarkers often indicate deficiencies or dysfunction that may require attention. Low levels of testosterone can lead to fatigue, decreased libido, and depression, with significantly low levels potentially indicating hypogonadism. Vitamin D deficiency is extraordinarily common, with over 40% of adults having insufficient levels, and optimal levels for longevity are significantly higher than basic sufficiency thresholds. Low vitamin B12 can cause fatigue and neurological symptoms, while low iron levels may indicate anemia.

What does a “High” result mean?

Elevated results in different biomarkers may indicate various conditions. Abnormal levels of substances tested in metabolic panels can be a sign of serious health problems like liver or kidney disease, diabetes, or metabolic imbalances. High testosterone levels are uncommon but may suggest certain medical conditions, while elevated PSA could indicate prostate enlargement or inflammation. High cortisol levels may reflect chronic stress or adrenal dysfunction, and elevated lipid levels can increase cardiovascular disease risk.

Privacy & confidentiality

Your test results are completely confidential and protected under HIPAA regulations. Results are not shared with your personal physician unless you choose to do so, are not added to your medical records, and will not appear on insurance explanations of benefits since no insurance billing is involved.
