Testosterone is a steroid hormone produced primarily in the testes in males and in smaller quantities in the ovaries and adrenal glands in females. It plays a key role in the development of male reproductive tissues, bone density, muscle mass, body fat distribution, and red blood cell production. In females, testosterone contributes to bone strength, ovarian function, and libido. Testosterone levels naturally fluctuate throughout the day, typically peaking in the morning, which is why morning blood draws are generally recommended for the most representative measurement. Levels also gradually decline with age in males, typically from around age 30.
St Paul's Medical and Dental is within walking distance of St Paul's tube station, Blackfriars, and City Thameslink. The clinic is open Monday to Friday from 8am to 8pm, making it convenient for City workers and local residents. All blood samples are processed by an accredited laboratory, and appointments can be booked online at a time that suits your schedule.
