โก Why Are These Markers Important?
๐ช Testosterone and Free Testosterone are key hormones involved in sperm production, energy levels and libido.
๐งช SHBG helps regulate how much testosterone is available for the body to use.
๐ LH (Luteinising Hormone) stimulates testosterone production in the testes.
๐งฌ FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone) plays a role in sperm production.
๐ Prolactin can affect testosterone levels and reproductive function when outside the expected range.
๐งช Albumin helps interpret free hormone availability in the blood.
๐ก Together, these markers help provide an overview of hormonal factors that may influence male fertility.
