What it is for
- Testosterone Plus
Why people check it
Much of the testosterone in the blood is bound to proteins; only the free part is available to the body's cells. Looking at both gives a much more precise picture than total testosterone alone. In men and women it plays a part in libido, fertility, muscle and bone mass, hair loss and mental wellbeing.
