Sex Hormone Binding Globulin Test (SHBG Test)

The Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) test is a blood test offered by healthcare nt sickcare Medical Laboratory to evaluate the level of SHBG in the blood. This test is useful in assessing the status of sex hormones in the body, such as testosterone and estrogen.

SHBG is a protein that binds to sex hormones, regulating their level and activity in the body. Changes in SHBG levels can have a significant impact on the body's hormonal balance, leading to a variety of symptoms and health problems.

The SHBG test can help diagnose and monitor conditions related to sex hormone imbalances, such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), hypogonadism, and hirsutism. It can also be used to evaluate the effectiveness of hormone replacement therapy.

To perform the SHBG test, a small sample of blood will be collected from you. The sample will then be analysed in our state-of-the-art laboratory to measure the level of SHBG in your blood.

The SHBG test is a safe and reliable way to assess your sex hormone status and detect any imbalances that may be affecting your health. If you are experiencing symptoms such as irregular periods, hair loss, or infertility, or if you have a family history of hormonal imbalances, it is important to get tested.
