01

WHAT IT IS

What it checks, explained.

The planned panel brings together several hormone-related measurements. The currently listed range includes testosterone, free testosterone, LH, FSH, oestradiol, prolactin, SHBG and albumin. The exact final panel will be confirmed before it is available to buy.

These markers have different roles: SHBG and albumin relate to how testosterone is carried, while LH and FSH are part of the signalling involved in reproductive function. They need interpretation together, rather than a separate “good or bad” score for each.

  • Testosterone
  • Free testosterone
  • Luteinising hormone (LH)
  • Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)
  • Oestradiol
  • Prolactin
  • Sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG)
  • Albumin
02

YOUR REASON

Why it might be useful.

A broader panel may be more useful than a single total-testosterone result when a clinician is investigating a particular concern. More markers are not automatically better; the right panel depends on the question being asked.

03

HOW IT WORKS

The evidence. The limits.

The sample goes to a laboratory. Some reported values may be calculated from other measurements rather than directly measured; the final method and report details will be explained before launch.

These independent sources explain the health context. They do not endorse this particular product.

04

USING IT WELL

Use it with the right advice.

If you use hormone treatment, are considering TRT or are trying for a baby, discuss the right investigation with a qualified clinician first. Follow the final sampling and timing instructions when the service opens.

THE SHIFT VIEW

Why we include it.

We want a clear distinction between a focused testosterone check and a more detailed hormone conversation. This planned option provides that choice without suggesting everyone needs the largest panel.

You can keep using My Timber without buying a test, supplement or bundle. If a GP assessment or a different product better answers your question, that is the better next step.

How long does it take?

Timing to be confirmed at launch

What if a result concerns me?

Speak to a healthcare professional and explain your result and symptoms. Do not change prescribed treatment using a home result alone.

What does this product actually do?

The planned panel brings together several hormone-related measurements. The currently listed range includes testosterone, free testosterone, LH, FSH, oestradiol, prolactin, SHBG and albumin. The exact final panel will be confirmed before it is available to buy.

What are its limits?

This is not a complete endocrine assessment, a fertility assessment or approval for hormone treatment. Symptoms, timing, medicines and previous results all affect what the numbers mean.

Why does SHIFT include it?

We want a clear distinction between a focused testosterone check and a more detailed hormone conversation. This planned option provides that choice without suggesting everyone needs the largest panel.
