Male Vitality 100 Comprehensive Biomarker Panel
This comprehensive blood test panel bundles male hormones, thyroid, metabolic, liver/kidney, lipids, inflammation, and PSA to interpret results together.
This panel bundles multiple biomarker tests in one order—your report explains how results fit together.
This is a multi-biomarker lab panel designed for men who want one blood draw that ties together hormones, performance-adjacent markers, and “safety labs” that matter when you are optimizing training, recovery, body composition, or therapy decisions. Instead of guessing from a single number (like total testosterone), you get a package of results that can be interpreted as a pattern: hormone production and binding, downstream effects (blood counts, lipids, glucose), and screening markers such as PSA.
Do I need this panel?
You may benefit from this lab panel if you have symptoms that could involve hormones or recovery—lower libido, erectile changes, fatigue, low motivation, reduced strength, stubborn fat gain, sleep disruption, or mood changes—and you want objective data before you change supplements, training load, or medications.
This panel is also useful if you are already monitoring testosterone-related care (for example, TRT-adjacent decision-making under medical oversight) and you want more than a single testosterone value. It helps you see whether changes in testosterone are accompanied by shifts in SHBG (sex hormone–binding globulin), estradiol, blood counts, lipids, liver enzymes, or PSA—markers that often explain why you feel “off” even when one hormone looks normal.
You may also consider this panel when your goals include fertility or you are trying to balance performance with reproductive planning. A broader panel can highlight patterns (like suppressed gonadotropins or elevated estradiol) that may affect sperm production even when energy and gym performance feel fine.
Your results are educational and should support clinician-directed care, not self-diagnosis. If you have severe symptoms (chest pain, fainting, rapidly worsening shortness of breath, or signs of infection), seek urgent medical evaluation rather than relying on lab testing.
Many hormones vary by time of day, recent training, sleep, alcohol, and medications; for the clearest interpretation, compare results to your prior labs and collect morning samples when possible.

Vitals Vault makes it straightforward to order a comprehensive men’s lab panel and then make sense of the results as a single story rather than a pile of unrelated numbers. You can use this panel as a baseline, as a check-in when symptoms change, or as a repeatable monitoring set when you are adjusting training, nutrition, or clinician-supervised therapy.
After your blood draw, you can review results in one place and use PocketMD to ask targeted questions like: “Why is my total testosterone normal but free testosterone low?” or “Do my hematocrit and estradiol changes match my symptoms?” This is especially helpful when you have multiple borderline results that only become meaningful when viewed together.
If you are tracking trends, repeating the same panel on a consistent schedule (and under similar conditions—morning timing, similar training week, similar supplement use) can make changes easier to interpret than switching between different test bundles.

Key benefits of the Male Vitality 100 Comprehensive Biomarker Panel
- Clarifies testosterone status by pairing total testosterone with SHBG, albumin, and a calculated free fraction.
- Adds context for symptoms by checking related hormones (LH/FSH, prolactin, estradiol) that can shift libido, mood, and energy.
- Includes “safety labs” that matter when hormones change—CBC and PSA patterns can flag issues that need clinician follow-up.
- Connects body composition and performance goals to metabolic markers like A1c, fasting insulin, and a full lipid profile.
- Screens thyroid function alongside sex hormones, since thyroid patterns can mimic or amplify low-testosterone symptoms.
- Tracks liver and kidney markers that influence medication tolerance, supplement safety, and overall recovery capacity.
- Creates a repeatable baseline so you can see whether changes in sleep, training load, alcohol, or therapy move the whole pattern in the right direction.
What is the Male Vitality 100 Comprehensive Biomarker Panel?
The Male Vitality 100 Comprehensive Biomarker Panel is a bundled set of blood tests that measures multiple categories of biomarkers in one order. It is built to answer a practical question: when you look at hormones, health markers, and screening labs together, does the overall pattern support how you feel and what you are trying to achieve?
Unlike a single-analyte test, a panel can show why a “normal” value may not be optimal for you, or why a high or low value may be temporary and explainable. For example, total testosterone can look fine while free testosterone is low because SHBG is high; hematocrit can rise with testosterone therapy or dehydration; PSA can fluctuate with benign prostate enlargement, inflammation, recent ejaculation, or cycling.
This panel typically combines:
• Sex hormone production and regulation (testosterone, LH/FSH, prolactin) • Hormone binding and conversion (SHBG, albumin, estradiol) • Thyroid function (TSH, free T4, free T3) • Cardiometabolic risk markers (lipids, glucose/insulin, A1c) • Organ function and recovery markers (CBC, liver enzymes, kidney function, electrolytes) • Inflammation and nutrient-related markers (such as hs-CRP, vitamin D, B12/folate)
No single marker “diagnoses” vitality. The value of this panel is in how the results cluster—what is consistently out of range, what is borderline, and what changes when you adjust sleep, nutrition, training, or clinician-supervised treatment.
What do my panel results mean?
Patterns that can look “low” on this panel
A “low” pattern often shows up as low total testosterone and/or low calculated free testosterone, sometimes alongside low-normal LH and FSH (suggesting reduced signaling from the brain) or elevated prolactin (which can suppress gonadal function). You may also see thyroid markers trending hypothyroid (higher TSH with lower free T4/free T3), which can overlap with fatigue, low mood, and weight gain. On the metabolic side, low HDL, higher triglycerides, rising fasting insulin, or an elevated A1c can point to insulin resistance that commonly coexists with lower free testosterone. Low vitamin D, B12, or folate can add to low-energy symptoms and may also affect blood counts.
Patterns that are often considered “optimal”
An “optimal” pattern is consistent and internally coherent: total testosterone and calculated free testosterone are in a healthy range for your age and goals, SHBG is not forcing free testosterone unusually low, and estradiol is not disproportionately high or low relative to testosterone. CBC markers (hemoglobin/hematocrit) are stable, liver and kidney markers are within range, and PSA is appropriate for your age and stable over time. Metabolic markers support good recovery and long-term health—A1c and fasting insulin are favorable, triglycerides are controlled, HDL is supportive, and hs-CRP is low, suggesting lower systemic inflammation.
Patterns that can look “high” on this panel
A “high” pattern may include high total testosterone and/or high calculated free testosterone, sometimes with suppressed LH/FSH (common when using exogenous testosterone under clinician care). Estradiol can also trend high, which may correlate with water retention, breast tenderness, mood changes, or libido shifts, especially if the testosterone-to-estradiol balance changes quickly. “High” can also show up in safety and cardiometabolic markers: elevated hematocrit/hemoglobin (which can increase blood viscosity), higher LDL or ApoB-related risk patterns, elevated liver enzymes after heavy training or alcohol, or a PSA that is higher than expected or rising over time. These patterns do not automatically mean something dangerous, but they are the ones that most often require context, repeat testing, and clinician-guided next steps.
Factors that influence this panel
Many results in this panel move with timing and lifestyle. Testosterone is typically highest in the morning and can be lower after poor sleep, caloric restriction, illness, or overreaching in training. SHBG shifts with thyroid status, liver health, insulin resistance, and certain medications, and it can change how much testosterone is available to tissues even when total testosterone is unchanged. PSA can be influenced by age, benign prostate enlargement, prostatitis, recent ejaculation, cycling, and urinary symptoms; trends over time are often more informative than a single value. Intense workouts can transiently raise CK and sometimes AST/ALT, while dehydration can concentrate blood and make hematocrit look higher. Supplements (biotin can interfere with some immunoassays), alcohol, nicotine, and medications (including finasteride, opioids, steroids, and some antidepressants) can also shift hormone and metabolic markers—bring a list when you review your results.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to fast for this panel?
Fasting is often recommended because this panel commonly includes triglycerides, glucose, and insulin. If you can, aim for 8–12 hours of fasting (water is fine) and avoid alcohol the day before. If you cannot fast, you can still test, but interpret glucose, insulin, and triglycerides with that context.
What time of day should you test testosterone for the most accurate comparison?
For most men, morning testing (often before 10 a.m.) makes results easier to compare over time because testosterone tends to peak earlier in the day. If you work nights or have an unusual sleep schedule, the best “morning” is typically soon after your longest sleep period.
Why does this panel include SHBG and albumin instead of only total testosterone?
Total testosterone does not tell you how much hormone is available to tissues. SHBG and albumin bind testosterone; when SHBG is high, free testosterone can be low even if total testosterone looks normal. Including these markers allows a calculated free testosterone estimate and a more useful interpretation of symptoms.
How should you think about PSA results without panicking?
PSA is best interpreted with context: your age, prostate size, urinary symptoms, recent ejaculation, cycling, and whether the value is stable or rising. A single mildly elevated PSA is not a diagnosis. Trends, repeat testing under consistent conditions, and clinician follow-up are the safest way to interpret PSA-related anxiety.
Can hard training affect results on this panel?
Yes. Heavy lifting, long endurance sessions, or a high-stress training week can transiently change cortisol, CK, inflammation markers, and sometimes liver enzymes (AST/ALT). Dehydration can concentrate blood and raise hematocrit. If you are testing for a baseline, consider a lighter training day before your draw and hydrate normally.
Is this panel useful if you are on TRT or considering it?
It can be useful because it includes both hormone markers and common monitoring labs like CBC and PSA, plus cardiometabolic markers that matter for long-term risk. If you are on clinician-supervised therapy, your clinician may also want additional tests or different timing based on your dosing schedule.
Is it better to order a panel or pick individual tests?
A panel is usually better when your goal is interpretation as a pattern—hormones plus safety labs plus metabolic context—because it reduces the chance that you miss a key companion marker (like SHBG, estradiol, or hematocrit). Individual tests can make sense for focused follow-ups once you know which category is driving your pattern.
