The Hormones Male Blood Test is a comprehensive blood test specifically developed to assess hormonal balance in men. This package measures the most important hormones responsible for male characteristics, muscle mass, libido, and overall vitality. It is an essential test for men who want to know the status of their testosterone levels and hormonal balance.
This test is particularly useful for men experiencing symptoms of low testosterone, such as reduced libido, fatigue, loss of muscle mass, or mood swings. It is also important for men actively involved in strength training or bodybuilding who wish to monitor their hormonal status. Additionally, it aids in diagnosing hypogonadism, a condition in which the testicles produce insufficient testosterone. This test is also valuable for men developing female physical characteristics.
The results provide insight into hormonal balance and kidney function. This test measures:
A disturbance in these values may indicate hypogonadism, hormonal imbalance, or pituitary gland problems.
These abnormalities have significant implications for overall health and potential treatments.
This information helps physicians advise on appropriate treatment or lifestyle adjustments.
This test is included in Dutch healthcare guidelines and is regularly used for its respective indications.
Rationale for this test
Dit pakket bevat standaard-bepalingen die in Nederlandse zorgrichtlijnen worden gebruikt voor diagnostiek van hypogonadisme en hormonale stoornissen bij mannen. Testosteron (totaal en vrij), SHBG en albumine zijn gevestigde markers voor het beoordelen van de hormonale status. De nierfunctieparameters (kreatinine en eGFR) zijn standaard-laboratoriumbepalingen die breed worden toegepast in de Nederlandse gezondheidszorg.

Practical information
After ordering we generate a referral letter and email you the instructions. You pick a collection point yourself and book an appointment there. Blood is drawn at the location, processed at the lab, and your result arrives digitally.
Often within a few working days. How soon you can be seen depends on how busy the location is and the type of analysis. For specialist analyses we first ship collection materials, which takes a bit longer.
At most collection points yes. Some accept walk-ins. This is clearly indicated per location. You choose the location that works best for you.
That depends on the test. Whether fasting is required, and from what time, is clearly stated in the instructions you receive after ordering. No surprises at the counter.
It varies per analysis: from same-day to a few working days. Standard values often come back quickly; analyses that go to an external lab can take a bit longer. You receive your laboratory report securely by email. It lists the measured values, units, reference ranges and any flags added by the laboratory.
We work with 1,000+ collection points across the Netherlands. After ordering you'll see which locations near you are available and you pick where you'd like to go.

Amazing website experience. I ordered various tests for 2 people. We went to one of the supported centers and took samples. Also after the results were ready, I needed a letter from the laboratory and they prepared the letter for me in no time. Definitely recommended.

Received a packet with everything needed, went to a walk in clinic (Amsterdam DC Clinic) where my blood was drawn and I was out the door within 5 minutes, and then after posting the samples, received results 2 days later. Results were easy to understand as well. Amazing service, would highly recommend!
