Sexual Dysfunctional Panel (FEMALE)
. Complete Blood Count (CBC)
- Measures red and white blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and platelets.
- Detects anemia, infections, or inflammation that may affect energy levels and overall health.
- Important for assessing physical well-being, which influences sexual health.
2. HbA1c (Glycated Hemoglobin)
- Evaluates average blood sugar levels over the past 2–3 months.
- Identifies diabetes or prediabetes, which can impact libido and nerve health.
- Ensures long-term blood sugar control for overall hormonal balance.
3. Lipid Profile
- Measures cholesterol levels (HDL, LDL, total cholesterol, and triglycerides).
- High cholesterol can affect blood flow and reduce sexual arousal or response.
- Important for preventing cardiovascular risks related to sexual dysfunction.
4. Liver Function Test (LFT)
- Assesses liver enzymes (ALT, AST), bilirubin, and albumin levels.
- Liver health is vital for hormone metabolism and detoxification.
- Detects conditions like fatty liver or hepatitis that may indirectly impact sexual health.
5. Kidney Function Test (KFT)
- Includes creatinine, urea, and electrolyte levels.
- Ensures proper kidney function, which is critical for hormonal balance and general health.
- Identifies underlying conditions that may lead to fatigue or low libido.
6. Thyroid Function Test
- Measures T3, T4, and TSH levels to evaluate thyroid health.
- Imbalanced thyroid hormones (hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism) can cause low libido, irregular menstrual cycles, and fatigue.
- Essential for maintaining hormonal equilibrium.
7. Testosterone (Total)
- Measures total testosterone levels in the blood.
- Low levels can contribute to decreased libido, energy, and sexual response.
- Important for assessing androgen deficiency in women.
8. Prolactin
- Elevated prolactin levels can suppress sexual desire and interfere with ovulation.
- High levels are often linked to conditions like hyperprolactinemia or pituitary gland disorders.
- Ensures proper hormonal regulation for sexual and reproductive health.
9. Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH)
- Regulates ovarian function and egg development.
- High or low levels can indicate menopause, ovarian dysfunction, or hormonal imbalances.
- Crucial for understanding fertility and sexual health issues.
10. Luteinizing Hormone (LH)
- Works in conjunction with FSH to regulate ovulation and hormone production.
- Abnormal LH levels may indicate polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) or other reproductive issues.
- Helps assess hormonal causes of sexual dysfunction.
11. Estradiol
- A key estrogen hormone that regulates menstrual cycles, vaginal lubrication, and sexual arousal.
- Low estradiol levels can lead to vaginal dryness and reduced libido.
- Important for evaluating ovarian function and estrogen balance.
12. Progesterone
- Essential for regulating menstrual cycles and preparing the body for pregnancy.
- Low levels can cause menstrual irregularities, mood swings, and reduced sexual desire.
- Monitored to assess luteal phase defects or ovulatory issues.
13. Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin (SHBG)
- Regulates the availability of active sex hormones like testosterone and estradiol.
- Low SHBG can increase free testosterone, potentially leading to PCOS or hirsutism.
- Balances hormone levels for optimal sexual function.
14. Liquid-Based Cytology (LBC)
- A modern Pap smear technique for detecting cervical cell abnormalities.
- Screens for cervical cancer, infections, or inflammation.
- Ensures reproductive organ health, which indirectly impacts sexual wellness.
