Men's Health Advanced Panel

Metabolic + blood chemistry (CMP, CBC, A1c, Lipid Panel, Fasting Insulin, GGT) plus the complete male hormone axis (Total + Free Testosterone, SHBG, Estradiol, DHEA-S, LH, FSH, Prolactin, IGF-1) plus thyroid (TSH, Reverse T3) plus free + total PSA, cardiovascular inflammation (hs-CRP, Homocysteine), and key nutrients (Vitamin D, Ferritin). About 50 individual biomarkers.

Men's Health Panel at $140 covers an 8-test annual workup. Men's Health Advanced at $299 adds the complete male hormone axis (Free T, SHBG, E2, DHEA-S, LH, FSH, Prolactin, IGF-1, Reverse T3), cardiovascular inflammation markers (hs-CRP, Homocysteine), free + total PSA, and key nutrients (Vitamin D, Ferritin). For men 40+ doing serious longevity tracking, this is the better starting point.

Estradiol (E2) matters for bone health, libido, mood, and erection quality in men — too low is just as problematic as too high. Men on TRT can develop high E2 from aromatization, causing water retention and gynecomastia. Baseline E2 is essential before starting TRT.

On TestWell, the Men's Health Advanced Panel is $299.99 at Quest or $349.99 at Labcorp (Labcorp's markers for this hormone-heavy panel run roughly double, so the lab selector shows both prices). Ordering the same 22 tests separately would be about $490. Quest Direct lists comparable bundles at $650, walk-in hospital labs typically bill $1500-2500 without insurance.

Men's Health Advanced is men-specific and focused on cardiovascular + hormonal + prostate. Total Body Panel at $499 is broader (75+ markers) and gender-neutral. For most men 40+, Men's Health Advanced gives 80% of what Total Body offers at 60% of the cost.

Yes — 9-12 hours fasting (water only) and morning draw (7-10 AM) for accurate testosterone and lipid results.

Annually for men 40+. Every 6 months if on TRT, managing multiple conditions, or aggressively tracking biomarkers. Pair with quarterly TRT Quarterly Panel during TRT titration.

Men's Health Advanced Panel results are typically ready in 2–5 business days after your draw at Quest or Labcorp. TestWell emails you the moment they post, and your results dashboard shows each marker against its reference range with a plain-English explanation.

Smoking and nicotine, keto and high-protein diets and oral contraceptives and estrogen can change a Men's Health Advanced Panel result without anything being wrong. Smoking and nicotine can raise RBC and WBC and 3 more markers on this test and can lower HDL Cholesterol and 25-Hydroxy Vitamin D — tell the clinician; a high hematocrit in a smoker is usually smoking, not polycythemia. Keto and high-protein diets can raise LDL Cholesterol and HDL Cholesterol and 2 more markers on this test and can lower Triglycerides, Sodium and Glucose — recheck with ApoB; discuss cardiovascular risk rather than dismissing the rise as 'diet noise'. Oral contraceptives and estrogen can raise SHBG and hs-CRP and 2 more markers on this test and can lower Total Testosterone and Estradiol — expected; interpret testosterone with it. Each factor is covered on our physician-reviewed "Before your test" pages; when one applies, the fix is usually to remove it and retest.
