More About The Unilab Total Testosterone Test
Take control of your health with our easy-to-use at-home total testosterone test. This convenient, discreet, and accurate test allows you to measure your testosterone levels from the comfort of your own home, without the need for a doctor’s visit or lab appointment.
Simply collect a small blood sample using the provided kit, send it to our certified lab, and receive your detailed results securely online within days. Whether you're monitoring symptoms of low energy, decreased muscle mass, or changes in mood, this test provides insights into your hormone levels to help you take proactive steps toward better health.
This test measures your Total Testosterone levels, which is a measure of the testosterone concentration you have in your blood. Also known as Total T, it includes both free testosterone as well as the testosterone bound to the proteins in your blood (e.g. albumin, sex hormone binding globulin). While testosterone is commonly regarded as the primary male sex hormone, it is also essential for bone density, libido, body fat distribution, and supporting muscle mass.
You should take this test if you are experiencing fatigue, decreased muscle mass, weight changes, increased body fat, hair loss or abnormal hair growth, sleep disturbances, difficulty concentrating, depression, low libido or erectile dysfunction.
We advise you share your results with your healthcare provider. Together, you can discuss your options so you can make informed decisions about your health journey.

Why Consider This Test?
-
Changes in Body
If your testosterone hormones are out of range, you may experience symptoms such as decreased muscle mass, chronic fatigue, weight change, increased body fat and/or hair loss.
-
Mental Acuity
Research shows that testosterone hormone levels that are too low or too high can disturb sleep, cause difficulty concentrating and even be an underlying cause of depression.
-
Reproductive Health Check
As men age, testosterone levels naturally begin to decline. If you have symptoms of erectile or sexual dysfunction or low libido, our at-home testosterone test will provide insights to help you pinpoint whether its connected to your testosterone level.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who should take this test?
An AMH Test may be offered to any woman who has infertility or at high risk for infertility. Infertility is the failure to achieve pregnancy within 12 months of unprotected sex or donor insemination in woman who are younger than 35, or 6 months for women older than 35.
When should my sample of blood be collected?
Because AMH remains stable during your menstrual cycle, it can be collected any time or day of the menstrual cycle. Fasting before blood collection is not required.
What will the results tell me?
AMH testing is a simple way to measure your ovarian reserve. Ovarian reserve can predict your future response to ovarian stimulation. AMH results should be assessed in the context of a woman’s age.
Are there limitations to this test?
Yes. Currently, AMH is one of the most accurate and reliable markers of ovarian reserve. However, data does not support testing for many diagnoses. The following is a list of such conditions.
· AMH testing should not be used as a fertility test for women who are not infertile or who have untested fertility.
· Routine AMH testing for prediction of pregnancy loss is not recommended.
· AMH testing is not useful in predicting the likelihood of unassisted pregnancy in women with infertility.
· AMH testing does not appear to predict pregnancy after OS/IUI for unexplained infertility.
· Extremely low levels of AMH should not be used to refuse treatment in IVF.
· AMH may only have a weak association with egg quality, pregnancy rates, and live birth rates.
· AMH levels may be decreased in women using hormonal birth control. Results should be interpreted with caution.
