At a glance
Erectile dysfunction (ED) testing uses blood panels to measure testosterone and related hormones, along with blood sugar, cholesterol, and thyroid markers, the physical factors most often associated with erectile difficulties. These panels are designed for men who want objective lab numbers to review with their doctor before or alongside care decisions. Options range from a focused 5-test hormone panel to a 15-test panel covering 66 biomarkers.
Best suited for
- Men experiencing difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection who want objective lab data to bring to a doctor's appointment
- Men noticing reduced libido, persistent fatigue, or low energy who want their hormone levels checked
- Anyone on physician-guided testosterone or hormone therapy who wants to track levels between visits
- Men with blood-sugar or cardiovascular risk factors who want the metabolic context behind their symptoms
- Those who plan to retest periodically and follow hormone trends over time

Key biomarker ranges
Commonly used adult reference ranges for markers this panel measures, labs vary, so always interpret results against your lab's stated ranges and with your doctor.
Adult male ranges shown; commonly used reference ranges run roughly 300–1,000 ng/dL, with morning draws the standard since levels peak early in the day.
| Zone | Range |
|---|---|
| Low | 0–300 ng/dL |
| Normal range | 300–1000 ng/dL |
| High | 1000–1200 ng/dL |
Adult female follicular-phase ranges shown; estradiol varies widely across the cycle and drops after menopause, so cycle timing is essential to interpretation.
| Zone | Range |
|---|---|
| Low | 0–30 pg/mL |
| Follicular range | 30–150 pg/mL |
| High | 150–250 pg/mL |
The importance of testing
Erectile difficulties are often viewed as an isolated problem, but they frequently track with measurable physiology: testosterone and the hormones that regulate it, blood sugar control, cholesterol, and thyroid function. Lab testing converts a vague, stressful concern into specific numbers you and your doctor can work from.
The hormone-focused ED panels measure free and total testosterone alongside the signals that govern it, LH and FSH from the pituitary, prolactin, SHBG (which determines how much testosterone is actually bioavailable), and adrenal precursors such as DHEA-S and pregnenolone. Low bioavailable testosterone and elevated prolactin are among the markers most commonly associated with reduced libido and erectile difficulties, and each is measurable from a single blood draw.
The broader ED Plus panels add blood sugar and cholesterol markers, because erectile function depends on healthy blood vessels and nerves, the same systems reflected in markers associated with diabetes and cardiovascular risk. Thyroid markers are included as well, since thyroid imbalance is another factor associated with changes in sexual function and energy.
Because these panels can be repeated, they are also useful for tracking. Retesting after lifestyle changes or during physician-guided therapy shows whether your numbers are actually moving, and out-of-range results give you something concrete to discuss with your doctor, the goal is a better-informed clinical conversation, not self-interpretation.

What does an erectile dysfunction blood test panel measure?
ED blood test panels measure free and total testosterone plus the hormones that regulate it, LH, FSH, prolactin, SHBG, DHEA-S, and the larger Plus panels add blood sugar, cholesterol, and thyroid markers. Together these cover the hormonal, metabolic, and cardiovascular factors most often associated with erectile difficulties, giving you and your doctor concrete numbers to review.
Can I order ED lab tests without a doctor's visit?
Yes, these panels are sold direct-to-consumer, so you can purchase online and have your blood drawn at a partner lab location without a prior doctor's referral. Results are delivered privately, and any out-of-range values are worth reviewing with your own physician.
Which ED panel should I start with?
The Erectile Dysfunction (ED) Hormone Panel (5 tests, 9 biomarkers) is the most focused starting point, while the ED Plus panels (up to 15 tests and 66 biomarkers) add blood-sugar, cholesterol, and other metabolic markers. If you mainly want hormone levels, start small; if you want the metabolic and cardiovascular context in the same draw, a Plus panel covers more ground.
Can these tests tell me what is causing my ED?
No single lab test identifies the cause of erectile dysfunction, these panels measure markers associated with hormonal, metabolic, and cardiovascular factors so you and your doctor can narrow down likely contributors. Out-of-range results are a starting point for a clinical conversation, not a medical conclusion.
Is direct-to-consumer ED testing available in every US state?
No, direct-to-consumer lab testing is restricted or prohibited in New York, New Jersey, and Rhode Island, so residents of those states may be blocked at the partner's checkout. Most other US states are served through the partner's network of draw locations.
How much does ED testing cost?
At the time of writing, ED hormone panels start at $164.76 and the broader Plus panels at $283.96 with the current 20% promotion (code ULTAF597), and individual hormone tests start at $21.56. Promotions can change, so confirm final pricing on the partner page before ordering.
