Total Testosterone
The primary androgenic hormone regulating bone, muscle, and lipid profiles.
Clinical Relevance
In both men and women, testosterone is vital for maintaining lean mass, bone mineral density, cognitive focus, lipid metabolism, and sexual health.
Why It Varies
Fluctuates according to diurnal patterns (highest in the morning), body fat percentage, sleep deprivation, zinc deficiency, and chronic stress.
Longevity & Lifestyle Pointers
- Prioritise regular resistance training to naturally stimulate androgen pathways.
- Target healthy body fat levels (elevated fat converts testosterone to oestrogen via aromatase).
- Avoid chronic sleep deprivation, which significantly lowers testosterone production.
Clinical Governance & Disclaimer
Tests should be drawn in the morning for diagnostic accuracy. Sub-optimal testosterone with accompanying symptoms requires clinical review by an endocrinologist or GP.
