About this test
About this test
The Medichecks Advanced TRT Blood Test is designed for people who need more than a simple testosterone reading. It is positioned for testosterone replacement therapy monitoring and for users who want stronger hormonal context when reviewing treatment progress or optimisation goals.
Who is this test for?
This test is best for men already on TRT, considering treatment, or tracking a more serious hormone optimisation plan. It is less suited to people who only want a quick baseline check and more suited to users who need broader insight.
How the test works
A blood sample is collected through the provider’s approved route and analysed for a wider set of treatment-relevant markers. Results can then be used to support monitoring decisions, trend analysis, and more informed follow-up.

Testosterone is bound to proteins in the blood which inactivate it. We can account for this to calculate the amount of "free" testosterone which is actually available for your body.
