Acne Hormonal Blood Test

An at-home blood test exploring hormonal and androgen markers that may be relevant to acne.

  • Testosterone: An androgen hormone that can influence sebum production.
  • SHBG: Measures the protein that binds sex hormones, including testosterone.
  • Free Androgen Index: Estimates biologically available androgen activity using testosterone and SHBG.
  • Prolactin: Measures a hormone involved in reproductive and hormonal function.
  • 17-Hydroxyprogesterone: A steroid hormone used when investigating certain causes of excess androgen activity.
  • Adults with acne wishing to explore hormonal factors
  • Women with acne alongside other possible hormonal symptoms
  • Those wishing to understand their androgen profile

Collect a small blood sample at home using the finger-prick kit provided, then return it to the laboratory for analysis.

Hormones are only one of many factors that can influence acne. This test does not diagnose acne or a hormonal condition. Please discuss abnormal results with your GP or doctor.
