About this test

Testosterone is the hormone measured here, commonly used to assess symptoms such as low energy, reduced muscle mass or changes in sexual function in men. Testing a single hormone in isolation does not diagnose a specific condition, and unusually high or low results are generally something to discuss with a GP rather than act on alone.

Every test in this comparison group measures the same single testosterone marker, so the differences come down to price and provider. At £79, LetsGetChecked sits near the top of the range: Medichecks offers the same test for £19, Forth for £29 and London Medical Laboratory for £39, while only Better2Know's £135 test costs more.

The scores reflect this. Clinical depth scores reasonably because the test measures exactly the marker it sets out to test, which is the point of this comparison group. clarity and documentation score highly, with a detailed description, the biomarker, sample type, collection method and turnaround all clearly stated. Collection convenience also scores well, as the sample is taken at home with results back within the week. value for money is the weak point, given the 68% premium over the group median. Trust signals and results and follow-up both score well on the back of LetsGetChecked's Trustpilot rating, lab accreditation and standard doctor review of results.

Who is it for?

This suits you if you want a doctor-reviewed testosterone check through a provider you already use, or value the LetsGetChecked account and app over saving money on this specific test.

If price matters more, Medichecks tests the same single marker for £19, and Forth and London Medical Laboratory offer it for £29 and £39 respectively, all well under half the price here.

How it works

You take a finger-prick blood sample at home using the kit provided and send it to the lab. LetsGetChecked states results are reviewed by a doctor, with a turnaround of 2 to 5 days. The fact sheet does not specify further detail on lab processing beyond this doctor review step.
