    What is a Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) Test?

    The SHBG (Sex Hormone Binding Globulin) test assesses the level of SHBG in your blood. SHBG, a protein primarily produced by the liver, binds to sex hormones like oestrogen, DHT, and testosterone, regulating their availability to the body's tissues. While it binds to all three hormones, its role in managing testosterone levels is particularly critical. Abnormal SHBG levels can signal issues related to testosterone, such as low levels in men or high levels in women. This test may be recommended if you have symptoms related to testosterone imbalance. For men, these might include a low sex drive, erectile dysfunction, and fertility issues. For women, symptoms could involve excessive hair growth, a deepened voice, irregular menstrual cycles, acne, and weight gain. The SHBG test helps pinpoint testosterone-related problems when total testosterone measurements alone are insufficient.

    If you're in Hyderabad and have symptoms like those mentioned, consider taking an SHBG test to diagnose potential hormonal imbalances and guide your treatment strategy.
