What it measures

SHBG (sex hormone binding globulin) is a protein made in the liver that carries testosterone and oestradiol in the blood. Hormone bound to SHBG is not available to the body's tissues, so the SHBG level affects how much testosterone is free.

Why people test it

Typical range

Ranges vary between labs, with the method used, age and sex, and your report shows the lab's own range. One NHS trust lab gives 17 to 78 nmol/L for adult men and 34 to 148 nmol/L for women aged 19 to 49. Source: Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust: biochemistry reference ranges.

Finger-prick or vein?

A vein draw is usually advised. SHBG is usually tested with testosterone, and testosterone gels or creams on the fingers can contaminate a finger-prick sample.

Every SHBG test, cheapest first

Cheapest first, whether the test is of SHBG alone (marked "single-marker test") or a panel that includes it. Each price is all-in: the test and the cheapest way to have the blood taken that suits this marker (a vein draw), before any discount code.
