The DHT test measures the level of dihydrotestosterone, a hormone linked to hair loss in men. High levels of DHT can cause hair follicles to shrink, leading to hair thinning and loss.
SHBG, or Sex Hormone Binding Globulin, can affect the amount of testosterone available in the body. High levels of SHBG can lower the amount of free testosterone, which may contribute to hair loss.
The Free Testosterone Test measures the level of testosterone that is not bound to proteins in the blood. Low levels of free testosterone can be a factor in hair loss.
The 4-Androstenedione Test measures a steroid hormone that is a precursor to both testosterone and estrogen. Abnormal levels can affect hair growth and may contribute to hair loss.
FSH and LH are hormones that regulate the production of testosterone. Abnormal levels can impact hair growth. High levels of prolactin can also lead to hair loss, as it may interfere with testosterone production.
