IMPO — Erectile Dysfunction Profile

Description

A COMPLETE SET OF TESTS THAT CHECK: This comprehensive profile evaluates key hormonal, metabolic, and biochemical markers that play a major role in erectile function and overall male sexual health. It includes: •Lipid profile to assess cardiovascular health, as poor circulation is a common contributor to erectile dysfunction (ED). •Glucose and HbA1c to evaluate blood sugar levels and identify insulin resistance or diabetes, which are major risk factors for ED. •Thyroid hormones (Free T4 / TSH) to detect thyroid dysfunction that can affect energy levels, libido, and erectile function. •Prolactin to check for elevated levels that may interfere with testosterone production and sexual performance. •Total and free testosterone to assess androgen status and identify hormonal causes of reduced libido or erectile difficulty. •Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) and Free Androgen Index to determine how much bioavailable testosterone is active in the body. •PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) to evaluate prostate health, which is relevant for men experiencing urinary or sexual symptoms. WHAT THIS TEST SUITE REVEALS: •Whether erectile dysfunction is related to low testosterone or other hormonal imbalances. •Signs of diabetes, insulin resistance, or impaired glucose regulation that may reduce blood flow and nerve function. •Cardiovascular risk factors, which often overlap with erectile issues. Thyroid or prolactin abnormalities that may affect sexual performance and overall wellbeing. •Prostate-related concerns that may contribute to symptoms. •A complete picture of the metabolic and hormonal factors that influence erectile function, enabling more accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.
