Total Testosterone Blood Test

What it measures

Hormone profile test

Clinical significance

This test measures the level of the hormone testosterone in your blood. Total T should be the first test ordered in the workup for hypogonadism. Testosterone is considered to be the "male hormone" that's produced in men by the testes. Although women's ovaries produce some testosterone, the hormone is produced in much higher concentrations in men.

The results of this test are given in nanograms per deciliter (ng/dL). Normal test results show total testosterone levels of:

  • 280 to 1,100 ng/dL for men
  • 15 to 70 ng/dL for women

A normal male testosterone level peaks at about age 20, and then it slowly declines. Testosterone levels above or below the normal range are considered by many to be out of balance. Moreover, some researchers suggest that the healthiest men have testosterone levels between 400-600 ng/dL.

The problems associated with high testosterone levels are infrequent and rare in middle-aged and elderly men who are not receiving testosterone or other steroid treatments. When the testosterone level becomes out of balance, it usually becomes too low rather than too elevated.

My journey back to health with Healsens. Thank you!!

That's when I turned to a nutritionist and ordered a blood test through Healsens. … Four months later, I retested. My biological age dropped to 24—nearly a decade younger than my real age.

Useful app to track analytics and 2nd opinion

It helps me track main parameters, understanding what do they mean and correlations, and make critical analysis to make preventative changes. Hope too see new fichas soon!

Everything is great! Excellent app! It's very convenient for storing all your test results! The only thing I wish was that you could record blood pressure readings for both arms, as this is sometimes important for blood pressure monitoring.

A useful app. It motivates me to lead a healthy lifestyle and monitor my diet. After the test results, I decided to change my diet – I cut out flour and chocolate. I lost 2 kg in about a week. We'll see how the test results look over time.
