A clinic-based blood test checking 8 male hormones, including total and free testosterone, for men wanting the same panel as the at-home Quickdraw kit but with faster results.
8 biomarkers as listed by Randox Health.
The panel covers the same 8 hormones as Randox's at-home Male Hormone Quickdraw: testosterone, free testosterone, luteinising hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, oestradiol, prolactin, SHBG and albumin. These are used together to look at how much testosterone is biologically available, rather than just the total level, and whether pituitary hormones point to a cause further upstream.
Within our male hormone comparison group of 9 tests, this sits just above Randox's own Quickdraw kit on price (£48 versus £46) but ahead of it on speed, with results back within a day compared with 2-3 days for the posted home kit. It remains well under YorkTest (£55), Selph (£65), Medichecks (from £69) and Blue Horizon (from £73.25), all for panels of similar or narrower depth.
The score benefits from strong documentation and clinical depth, matching the median 8 biomarkers for the group, and from value, since £48 sits well below the group's £79 median. It is held back by results and follow-up, as results are not reviewed by a doctor as standard, and by collection convenience, since it requires a venous draw at a clinic rather than a home kit.
This suits you if you want the same 8-hormone panel as the Quickdraw kit but would rather have a professional take the sample, or you want results back within a day instead of waiting for post. It remains one of the cheapest ways into this comparison group even with the clinic visit factored in.
If you would prefer to avoid a clinic appointment altogether and can wait a couple of extra days, Randox's own Male Hormone Quickdraw covers the same 8 hormones for £2 less and can be done at home.
You attend a clinic for a venous blood draw, which Randox sends to its lab for analysis of the 8 hormones in the panel. The provider states results are returned within 24 hours of the sample reaching the lab. Doctor review is not stated as standard.
Randox's clinic-based male hormone panel checks the same 8 hormones as its at-home Quickdraw kit, including testosterone, free testosterone and oestradiol, but returns results within a day rather than 2-3. At £48 it costs £2 more than the Quickdraw and remains well below rivals such as YorkTest, Selph, Medichecks and Blue Horizon, who charge between £55 and £81 for similar panels. As with the Quickdraw, results are not reviewed by a doctor as standard.

This test belongs to our Male hormone panel comparison group. See how it stacks up against equivalent tests from other providers.
Deepest male hormone panel in the group, at median price
A 10-marker panel covering testosterone, other reproductive hormones and the proteins that affect hormone availability. Suited to men investigating low energy, libido or mood changes.
Calculated free testosterone below the group median price
Checks total and calculated free testosterone alongside LH, FSH, SHBG and albumin, giving a fuller picture of male hormone health than a total testosterone test alone. Suited to men with possible low testosterone symptoms such as low energy, low libido or difficulty building muscle.
10-marker panel, but Medichecks matches it for less
A 10-marker male hormone panel testing testosterone alongside free testosterone, oestradiol, SHBG, DHEAS, FSH, LH, prolactin and albumin, for a broader hormonal picture than a single testosterone test.
Cheapest at-home 8-hormone male panel in its group
An at-home finger-free blood test checking 8 male hormones, including total and free testosterone, aimed at men wondering whether hormone levels could be behind low energy, low libido or mood changes.
Broadest male hormone panel we track, priciest too
A 12-marker panel covering testosterone, oestradiol, LH, FSH, prolactin, cortisol and thyroid hormones, for men investigating symptoms like low libido, fatigue or mood changes.
10-marker hormone panel priced above the group median
A blood test covering testosterone, free testosterone, DHEA sulphate, SHBG and related hormones that affect energy, mood, libido and muscle and bone health in men. Suits men wanting a full hormone check rather than testosterone alone.
Below-median price, below-median depth male hormone panel
A 5-marker blood test measuring total and free testosterone, oestradiol, albumin and SHBG, giving more context on hormone balance than a total testosterone test alone. Aimed at men investigating symptoms of hormonal imbalance.
Pricier and narrower than several rival male hormone panels
Checks total and free testosterone, oestradiol, prolactin, albumin and SHBG, aimed at monitoring hormone balance during testosterone replacement therapy.
Same panel as Medichecks TRT test, £7.75 cheaper
A focused blood test that checks testosterone, free testosterone, SHBG, prolactin and oestradiol after you've changed your TRT protocol, so your prescriber can see how your hormone levels have responded. Suited to men already on testosterone replacement therapy rather than those wanting a first, broader check.
Male hormone panel undercut only by Randox's own test
An at-home finger-prick test measuring eight male hormone markers, including testosterone, free testosterone, LH and FSH. Suited to men aged 20 and over investigating low energy, low libido or mood changes.
Costs more than every named peer in its group
This blood test covers testosterone, free testosterone, oestradiol, prolactin, SHBG, full blood count, PSA and albumin, aimed at men already on testosterone replacement therapy. It suits routine monitoring rather than an initial low-testosterone diagnosis.
5-marker hormone panel costing more than deeper peers
A budget-tier male hormone panel testing testosterone alongside free testosterone, oestradiol, SHBG and albumin, for men who want a slightly wider check than a single testosterone test.
Includes a GP consultation, but costs far more than peers
A 9-marker blood test covering testosterone, LH, FSH, SHBG, DHEA-S, oestradiol, prolactin and albumin, with a private GP consultation included. Suited to men investigating symptoms linked to low testosterone or hormonal changes.
Six-marker male hormone panel, priciest of its peers
A nurse-collected blood test covering six male hormone markers, including testosterone, free androgen index, LH, FSH and prolactin. Suited to men with symptoms such as low sex drive, fatigue or hair loss.
Deepest male hormone panel in the group, at median price
A 10-marker panel covering testosterone, other reproductive hormones and the proteins that affect hormone availability. Suited to men investigating low energy, libido or mood changes.
