This blood test looks at cholesterol, blood sugar and key hormones such as testosterone to help identify possible underlying causes of erectile dysfunction. It suits men who want to check for a physical contributing factor before or alongside seeing a GP.
10 biomarkers as listed by Medichecks.
This test combines a full cholesterol panel (HDL, LDL, non-HDL, total cholesterol, the total-to-HDL ratio and triglycerides), HbA1c for average blood sugar, prolactin and testosterone, and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). Cardiovascular health, blood sugar control, and hormone levels including testosterone and thyroid function can all affect erectile function, so this combination is designed to flag physical contributors rather than test for erectile dysfunction directly.
Medichecks does not list a named comparison group for this test, but against the wider set of fertility tests we track, its 10 markers place it well into the upper range for this type of test, while its £85 price sits well below the typical cost of similarly sized fertility tests.
This combination of an above-average marker count and a below-average price drives strong scores for clinical depth and value for money. It also scores well for results and follow-up, since a doctor reviews every result, and for clarity and documentation, because the listing sets out the biomarkers, sample type and collection options clearly. It scores more moderately on collection convenience because it requires a venous draw at a clinic, though a home nurse visit is offered.
This suits men who want to check for physical contributors to erectile dysfunction, such as high cholesterol, poor blood sugar control, low testosterone or a thyroid problem, before or alongside seeing a GP about the symptom itself. Medichecks does not list a peer test in our data for this specific combination, so we cannot say whether a cheaper or deeper alternative exists elsewhere; based on the data we hold, its below-average price and above-average marker count for this type of test make it reasonably strong value as a first physical check. It is not a substitute for discussing symptoms with a doctor, since erectile dysfunction can also have causes this panel does not cover.
You can have this done at an in-store clinic, through a home nurse visit, or with a venous blood draw at a clinic; Medichecks does not offer an at-home finger-prick option for this test. Results are typically ready within 3 days, and every result is reviewed by a doctor before you receive it.
Cholesterol, blood sugar and key hormones such as testosterone are combined here to help identify physical factors behind erectile dysfunction. At £85 it costs roughly 41% below the £144 median for similarly sized fertility tests we track, and its 10 markers put it toward the deeper end for this type of test. It does not, on its own, explain psychological or relationship factors that can also play a role.
The listing publishes a short description, the full biomarker list, a stated turnaround, clear collection options, the sample type; it does not state what the report looks like.
10 biomarkers, placing it in the 83rd percentile of fertility tests we track.
A blood sample taken at home by a visiting nurse or phlebotomist; with a venous or clinic option as well; a home nurse visit is offered; results in around 3 days, slower than similar tests.
Results are reviewed by a doctor; the provider does not describe the report format.
