Why Not Just See My GP?

GP services are essential for diagnosing illness. However:

  • Routine full health screening isn’t always available

  • Advanced hormone or performance panels are rarely offered

  • Appointment wait times can be long

Our service is ideal for:

  • Preventative health monitoring

  • Performance optimisation

  • Hormone assessment

  • Reassurance and clarity

It complements — not replaces — your GP care

Do I Need to Fast?

Some tests (cholesterol, glucose, insulin) may require fasting for 8–12 hours. If required:

  • Drink water only

  • Avoid tea, coffee and supplements

  • Continue prescribed medication unless advised otherwise

We’ll confirm when you book.

FAQs

A targeted blood test designed to investigate potential physical causes of erectile dysfunction (ED), including hormonal imbalances, circulation issues, and underlying health conditions.

This profile focuses on the key areas linked to ED, including:

Hormones – Testosterone, Free Testosterone, SHBG, Prolactin, Thyroid Stimulating Hormone

Heart & circulation – Full cholesterol profile (HDL, LDL, triglycerides)

Diabetes risk – HbA1c

Prostate health – Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA)

Erectile dysfunction is often assumed to be psychological, but in many cases there may be an underlying physical cause. This test helps to:

Identify or rule out medical causes

Detect early signs of cardiovascular or metabolic issues

Guide appropriate treatment and management

Common physical causes include:

Hormonal imbalance (e.g. low testosterone)

Poor blood flow or circulation issues

High cholesterol

Diabetes or nerve damage

Prostate problems

This test screens for all major contributing factors.

This test is suitable for:

Men experiencing difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection

Those wanting to rule out underlying health conditions

Individuals monitoring hormonal or cardiovascular health

For best results:

Fast for 8–12 hours before your appointment (water is allowed)

Avoid alcohol and heavy exercise beforehand

You can attend our branch or one of our partner clinic locations. We do not offer home testing.

Results are typically available within a few days and are provided in a clear, easy-to-understand report.

If any results fall outside the normal range, you can take appropriate next steps — including lifestyle changes, further testing, or consulting a healthcare professional for treatment options.

No — this test provides valuable insight into potential causes of ED but should be used alongside clinical assessment and medical advice.
