How does it work?

You collect the samples at home, send them back to the labs and we will provide you with your testosterone levels and whether your level falls within the reference ranges for your age. This process takes around 2 weeks. In addition to that, the results include graphs showing whether your are in the “green” (=normal/healthy) or “red” (=too high/low) area, making it easy to understand the results. Our health team will provide advice on your results support on increasing or decreasing levels as appropriate.
