Your at-home testosterone test explained

What can low testosterone affect?

Sex drive, erections, energy, recovery and mood can all change. But symptoms alone cannot confirm the cause.Source: EAU guidance on symptoms.

How is low testosterone diagnosed?

Diagnosis combines your symptoms with low morning testosterone on two separate blood tests.Source: EAU diagnostic guidance.

What happens after a low result?

A wider blood panel helps clarify the cause before your doctor recommends TRT or another route, with your health and fertility plans in view.Source: Endocrine Society diagnostic guidance.

What is included in the testosterone test?

Your report covers total testosterone, free testosterone, SHBG and albumin. The test includes a finger-prick kit, delivery, prepaid return, analysis by Viva Health Labs and a clinician-reviewed report in 2–5 working days.

Testosterone testing, results and next steps

Explore TRT assessment, treatment and monitoring
What is low testosterone?

Low testosterone—also called testosterone deficiency or hypogonadism—is diagnosed when relevant symptoms are supported by repeatedly low morning testosterone results. One low result is not enough.Source: EAU definition and diagnosis.

What are the symptoms of low testosterone?

Lower sex drive, fewer morning erections and erectile difficulties are the most specific signs. Lower energy, strength, motivation or concentration can also occur, but these symptoms have other possible causes.Source: EAU guidance on symptoms.

Can the at-home test diagnose low testosterone?

The four-marker finger-prick test is an initial check, not a final diagnosis. A low or borderline result needs confirmation with morning venous tests on separate occasions before treatment is considered.Source: Endocrine Society diagnostic guidance.

What happens if my result is normal or borderline?

A borderline result may need repeating or investigating with a wider blood panel. If your testosterone is normal, TRT may not be appropriate and other explanations for your symptoms should be considered.Source: EAU repeat-testing guidance.
