Testosterone Test Information
Testosterone tests are performed to gauge the actual degree of Testosterone in the blood and that is compared to the normal Testosterone level that is desired. If liver function test existing Testosterone measure indicates any deviation from the standard Testosterone level then medical attention may be needed.

For the test to perform the blood is collected mainly from vein and generally from the inside of the elbow or the trunk of the hand and wherever the vein is prominently seen. The area of the skin is cleaned with germ killing antiseptic solution and an elastic band is wrapped round the arm for applying pressure to the region and for making the vein swell and become full of blood, therefore the blood could be collected quickly with less pain.

Following this the medial practitioner or the pathologist gently inserts the needle into the vein and the blood is sucked through the needle and collected in an air tight via or tube attached to the needle. Very importantly each one of these instruments and containers should be sterilized properly before use in order to avoid any infection. Then the elastic band is removed from the arm. After the needle is taken off the skin the area is covered with cotton wool to protect from discharging of more blood.

Before going for Testosterone test the patient might need to stop all medicines that he/she may be taking for some time. As described above it really is clear that the test isn't that painful. The normal results of the test should read the Testosterone level among 300 -1,200 ng/dL for males and 30 - 95 ng/dL for female.
