Erectile Dysfunction Impotence Profile

This comprehensive profile checks male hormones, diabetes, cholesterol, and PSA, essential for identifying physical causes of impotence in men.


Erectile Dysfunction Impotence Profile

This comprehensive profile assesses key health factors that may contribute to erectile dysfunction and male impotence. Approximately 48% of men experience difficulties with erections at some point, and while psychological factors are often the cause, it’s essential to rule out physical causes that could indicate a more serious underlying condition. Identifying and treating these causes can reduce symptoms of impotence.

The profile focuses on two main areas: circulatory and hormonal health. It includes tests for Testosterone, SHBG, Prolactin, and Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) to check for hormonal imbalances. Since diabetes can lead to circulatory issues and nerve damage, glucose and HbA1c levels are measured, along with a full cholesterol panel.

A Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) test is also included to screen for potential prostate issues, which can impact erectile function. This test is available as a convenient finger-prick home test or a standard phlebotomy sample.
