When to Get Tested
Testosterone peaks in the morning, so an early draw (before 10 a.m.) is ideal. No fasting is required. If you're on therapy, testing at a consistent point in your cycle makes results comparable.
Understanding Your Results
Results post to your secure online account usually in 2β3 business days, with total and free testosterone and their ranges. Because levels are highest in the morning and vary day to day, a borderline low result is often confirmed with a repeat morning test. Interpret therapy-related results with your prescriber.
