About this Test:
The Testosterone Free - Hormone Test measures the level of free (biologically active) testosterone in the bloodstream. Unlike total testosterone, which includes both bound and unbound hormone, this test focuses only on the fraction available for use by the body.
✔ Helps diagnose male infertility, erectile dysfunction, and reduced libido
✔ Useful in women for detecting PCOS, irregular menstruation, and hirsutism
✔ Supports evaluation of hormonal imbalance and adrenal gland disorders
✔ Recommended when total testosterone levels are normal but symptoms persist
