A four-marker blood test combining total testosterone, free testosterone calculation, SHBG and albumin for a fuller read on available testosterone.
4 biomarkers as listed by London Medical Laboratory.
Total testosterone alone doesn't show how much is actually available for the body to use, since much of it is bound to proteins in the blood. This test adds SHBG and albumin alongside total and calculated free testosterone, which together give a more complete picture than a single testosterone reading, relevant for both men and women.
With four biomarkers this matches the comparison group's median exactly, and the £59 price also lands precisely at the group's median. Medichecks' Free and Total Testosterone Blood Test covers the same four markers for £39, while Selph, Numan and Thriva sit close by at £58 to £62.10 for five markers each.
The scores reflect a test that is squarely average for its group: value for money and clinical depth both sit around the middle of the range, collection convenience is high because it can be done at home, and trust signals reflect CQC registration and a doctor-reviewed report as standard.
This is a reasonable choice if you want more than a single testosterone number without paying for a full hormone panel, for example when monitoring treatment over time. If price is the deciding factor, Medichecks checks the same four markers for £20 less. If you also want thyroid or liver function checked at the same time, London Medical Laboratory's own Testosterone Check-adjacent Sports Hormone Profile goes further, at a higher price.
This is a blood test. You can use an at-home finger-prick kit (£3.99 postage), a venous draw at a partner clinic (£35), or a phlebotomist home visit. Results are typically ready within a day and are reviewed by a doctor.
This four-marker panel costs £59, exactly the median price for tests measuring free and total testosterone, and it can be taken as an at-home finger-prick sample. Medichecks offers the same four markers for £39, so this is a mid-table rather than standout choice on price.
The listing publishes a detailed description, the full biomarker list, a stated turnaround, clear collection options, the sample type; it does not state what the report looks like.
