5000+ Tests Processed With Express Pathology

I was struggling with low drive, poor sleep and stubborn weight gain. This panel highlighted both low testosterone and thyroid imbalance. My GP finally had enough data to optimise my treatment properly.

Blake N.

Excellent test for anyone fine-tuning hormone therapy. The combination of testosterone, oestradiol and thyroid markers was exactly what my doctor needed. Results came back fast.

Adrian V.

This panel helped explain why I wasn’t seeing results despite diet and training. My prolactin was elevated and E2 was off balance. Very thorough report.

Sandeep R.

Booked this panel to optimise my TRT protocol. It showed exactly where adjustments were needed with E2 and thyroid. Professional service and easy home collection.

Luke J.

Great test for overall hormonal and metabolic tuning. CMP and thyroid with testosterone in one panel saved me needing multiple tests.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the purpose of the Optimisation Panel?

The Optimisation Panel is designed to assess male hormone efficiency, thyroid balance, and metabolic function together. It helps fine-tune:

  • Testosterone balance
  • Estrogen conversion
  • Thyroid performance
  • Liver, kidney, and electrolyte health (via CMP)

What markers are included in this panel?

This panel includes:

  • Free & Total Testosterone
  • Prolactin
  • Oestradiol (E2)
  • CMP (Comprehensive Metabolic Panel)
  • TSH, T3 & T4 (Thyroid Function)

Who is this Optimisation Panel best suited for?

This test is ideal for men who:

  • Feel “stuck” despite training and clean diet
  • Are on or considering testosterone therapy
  • Have fatigue, brain fog, or low motivation
  • Have suspected thyroid issues
  • Want performance and hormone optimisation

Why is Oestradiol (E2) important when optimising testosterone?

In men, E2 is created from testosterone. If E2 is:

  • Too high → may cause fatigue, water retention, mood swings
  • Too low → may cause joint pain, low libido, and poor wellbeing

Proper balance is critical for hormone optimisation.

What does Prolactin affect in men?

High prolactin can suppress:

  • Testosterone production
  • Libido
  • Energy levels
  • Fertility

This test helps detect hidden hormonal suppression.

Why is thyroid testing included in an optimisation panel?

Thyroid hormones (TSH, T3 & T4) control:

  • Metabolism
  • Energy production
  • Fat loss
  • Body temperature regulation

Even if testosterone is normal, poor thyroid function can block optimisation.

What does the CMP test check?

CMP (Comprehensive Metabolic Panel) evaluates:

  • Liver function
  • Kidney function
  • Hydration status
  • Electrolyte balance
  • Blood sugar control

This ensures hormone optimisation is done safely and effectively.

Can this test help optimise TRT (Testosterone Therapy)?

Yes. This panel is ideal for:

  • Monitoring Free & Total Testosterone
  • Estrogen management (E2)
  • Detecting prolactin-related suppression
  • Ensuring thyroid and metabolic support is optimal
