Male Hair Loss Profile

£179.00

Hair loss in men can be influenced by far more than genetics alone. Hormonal changes, vitamin and mineral deficiencies, thyroid disorders, and underlying health conditions may all affect the strength, thickness, and growth cycle of your hair. Identifying these internal factors early can help you make informed decisions about treatment and long-term hair health.

The Male Hair Loss Profile is a comprehensive laboratory assessment that evaluates 38 essential health indicators linked to hair growth, hormone balance, nutrition, and overall wellbeing. It provides valuable clinical insights to help uncover possible causes of excessive shedding, thinning hair, or male pattern hair loss.

This profile requires a phlebotomy blood sample because it includes a comprehensive Full Blood Count (FBC), which cannot be accurately performed using a finger-prick sample.

Understanding Your Male Hair Loss Results

Hair thinning can result from multiple contributing factors rather than a single cause. This profile investigates the most common medical reasons associated with hair loss, helping provide a clearer picture of your overall health.

Hormonal Assessment

Healthy hormone levels are essential for maintaining normal hair growth. This profile measures testosterone, free testosterone, SHBG, prolactin, cortisol, DHEA-S, FSH, LH, and oestradiol to identify hormonal imbalances that may contribute to hair thinning, reduced hair density, or changes in hair growth patterns.

Thyroid Health

An underactive or overactive thyroid can significantly affect the hair growth cycle. By analysing Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) and Free T4, this profile helps detect thyroid conditions that may contribute to excessive hair shedding.

Nutritional Status

Hair follicles require a continuous supply of nutrients to remain healthy. This test evaluates Vitamin D, Vitamin B12, Folate, Ferritin, and Zinc, helping identify nutritional deficiencies that may weaken hair follicles or slow healthy hair growth.

Liver & Kidney Function

Your liver and kidneys play an important role in processing hormones, nutrients, and metabolic waste. Assessing these organs provides valuable information about your body’s ability to support healthy hair and overall wellbeing.

Full Blood Count

A complete blood count helps identify conditions such as anaemia, infection, or chronic inflammation that may contribute to fatigue, poor circulation, and hair loss.

Who Should Consider This Test?

This profile may be suitable for men who:

  • Are experiencing noticeable hair thinning or excessive hair shedding.
  • Have a family history of male pattern hair loss.
  • Want to investigate possible hormonal or nutritional causes.
  • Are planning to begin hair restoration treatments.
  • Wish to monitor their overall health while managing hair loss.

Health Indicators Included

The liver supports hundreds of vital functions, including nutrient metabolism, hormone regulation, protein production, and toxin removal. Healthy liver function contributes to overall wellbeing and helps maintain normal physiological processes that may indirectly influence hair health.

Biomarkers Included:

  • Alanine Transaminase (ALT)
  • Albumin
  • Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP)
  • Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST)
  • Gamma Glutamyl Transferase (GGT)
  • Globulin
  • Total Bilirubin
  • Total Protein

Hormones regulate many essential body functions, including metabolism, energy production, reproduction, and hair growth. Even small hormonal imbalances may contribute to thinning hair, reduced growth, or changes in hair quality.

Biomarkers Included:

  • Cortisol
  • DHEA-Sulphate
  • Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH)
  • Free Androgen Index
  • Free Testosterone (Calculated)
  • Luteinising Hormone (LH)
  • Oestradiol (E2)
  • Prolactin
  • Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG)
  • Testosterone

Healthy kidneys help remove waste products, maintain fluid balance, regulate blood pressure, and support red blood cell production. Assessing kidney health provides valuable information about your overall metabolic wellbeing.

Biomarkers Included:

  • Creatinine
  • Urea
  • Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR)

Iron plays an essential role in oxygen transport and healthy hair follicle function. Low iron stores may contribute to hair shedding, fatigue, and reduced hair growth.

Biomarker Included:

  • Ferritin

Essential vitamins support healthy cell growth, immune function, energy production, and hair follicle development. Identifying deficiencies can help explain symptoms affecting hair and general wellbeing.

Biomarkers Included:

  • Folate
  • Vitamin B12
  • Vitamin D (25-OH)

Thyroid hormones regulate metabolism and influence the normal hair growth cycle. Thyroid disorders are common and may contribute to hair thinning, tiredness, and unexplained weight changes.

Biomarkers Included:

  • Free T4 (Thyroxine)
  • Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH)

A Full Blood Count provides an overview of your general health by measuring different blood cells responsible for oxygen transport, immune defence, and blood clotting. It can help identify anaemia, infection, inflammation, and other conditions that may contribute to hair loss.

Biomarkers Included:

  • Haematocrit
  • Haemoglobin
  • Mean Cell Haemoglobin Concentration (MCHC)
  • Mean Cell Haemoglobin (MCH)
  • Mean Cell Volume (MCV)
  • Mean Platelet Volume (MPV)
  • Platelet Count
  • Red Cell Count
  • Red Cell Distribution Width (RDW)
  • White Cell Count

Minerals are essential for healthy hair growth, tissue repair, enzyme function, and immune health. Deficiencies may affect hair strength, texture, and normal follicle function.

Biomarker Included:

  • Zinc (Serum)
