As a male, your testosterone levels—along with other key hormones—influence many areas of your life, including performance.

Our at-home complete hormone test for males measures free testosterone along with three other hormones, DHEA, cortisol, and estradiol.

Once you receive our male hormone test, simply send in a saliva sample taken shortly after you wake, and EverlyWell's lab will process your sample and provide you with your digital results. This hormone test checks 4 vital hormone levels for men to see if they fall within a normal range. Once you get your test result back, you can then show your hormone levels to your healthcare provider for further advice and next steps.

The Everlywell Hormone Test For Men measures the levels of these important hormones:

• Testosterone
• DHEA
• Estradiol
• Cortisol

Testosterone:

Testosterone is a hormone most well known for it’s role as the main male sex hormone. While testosterone exists in both men and women, it typically exists in far greater amounts in men than women. This hormone plays a key role in maintaining muscle mass, regulating fat storage, body hair growth, athletic performance, sex drive, energy levels, and much more.

Testosterone peaks for most men during their twenties and decreases with age.

DHEA:

DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone) is the most abundant circulating steroid in the body. It is produced primarily in the adrenal glands and acts as a precursor to other sex hormones, including testosterone and estrogen. DHEA peaks in early adulthood and decreases with age.

Estradiol:

Estradiol is the most prevalent estrogen. Although essential for female secondary characteristic development, it is also synthesized and required in males at low levels. An estrogen test checks your estradiol levels to help you see if you have normal ranges.

Cortisol:

Cortisol is the "fight or flight" hormone that is released by the adrenal glands in response to stress. Persistent stress leads to chronically increased cortisol levels, which can result in many health issues including difficulty sleeping, weight gain, decreased testosterone levels , low energy, and more.

Men of any age may be interested in understanding their testosterone, estradiol, cortisol, and DHEA levels as these—when measured together—can offer greater insight into their overall health.

Through this at-home male hormone test, you have the opportunity to better understand your levels of each of these four hormones and their role in your overall health.

Your results will provide detailed information on whether your testosterone, DHEA, estradiol, and cortisol levels are normal, low, or high compared to reference ranges.

Everlywell can provide evidence-based suggestions for lifestyle changes that you can make to positively impact your health. It's always a great idea to share your results with your healthcare provider and discuss potential next steps.
