Low Testosterone in Men
By Tharb Faisl
Low testosterone — often called Low T — is far more common than many men realise. It’s not just about sex drive or gym performance; testosterone impacts energy, mood, motivation, and overall wellbeing.
At Marylebone Diagnostic Centre, we offer private testosterone testing for men in London, with fast results and full discretion.
Signs You Might Have Low Testosterone
Many men don’t know they have Low T until their blood results confirm it. Common symptoms include:
- Constant tiredness, even after sleep
- Decreased muscle mass or strength
- Low sex drive or erectile issues
- Brain fog or poor memory
- Low mood, irritability, or anxiety
- Increased belly fat
- Loss of morning erections
If you’re ticking more than one of these boxes, it’s time to get checked.
What’s Included in Our Testosterone Test?
Our male hormone test looks at:
| Marker | What It Tells You |
| Total Testosterone | Overall testosterone levels |
| Free Testosterone | Available hormone your body can use |
| SHBG | Protein that affects testosterone availability |
| LH & FSH | Signals from your brain that trigger testosterone production |
| Prolactin & Oestradiol | Other hormones that can block or interfere |
| Cortisol & TSH (Optional) | Check stress and thyroid involvement |
You’ll receive results in 1–2 working days, reviewed to the Marylebone High Standard of care and precision.
What Causes Low Testosterone?
Low T can be triggered by:
- Ageing (starts to drop from your 30s)
- Chronic stress
- Poor sleep or diet
- Long-term illness
- Use of certain medications
- Excess alcohol or drug use
- Obesity or high body fat
Sometimes, the cause is unknown — but it’s still treatable.
