It is used to diagnose infertility, testicular tumours, ambiguous genitalia, erectile dysfunction, pituitary tumours in men, lack of menstruation, obesity, extra hair growth (especially on the face), and the appearance of masculine features in females, and it is an indicator for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

What does it measure?
The testosterone-free test: Analyses the levels of free testosterone present in the blood. Testosterone is a sex hormone that is mainly found in men. It is also found in women but in small amounts. This testosterone helps in the development of male physical characteristics. In men, testosterone is produced by the Leydig cells, and it is present in the testicles. This is also produced by the adrenal glands present in both males and females. In females, very small amounts of testosterone are produced by the ovaries. The function of testosterone is to be developed by secondary sex characteristics, which include enlargement of the penis, body hair growth, development of muscle, and deepening of the voice. It is during puberty that it is produced in large amounts in males.In adult males, the function is to regulate the sex drive and maintain muscle mass. In adult females, testosterone is converted to estradiol, which is the main sex hormone in females.The amounts of testosterone are highest in the early morning and lowest in the evening. With the exercise, the levels of testosterone increase, and with age, the levels decrease. In the blood, about two-thirds of the testosterone hormone is bound to the sex-hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and about one-third is bound to albumin. A very small amount is present as free testosterone.
