Why get baseline bloods before seeing a Perth clinic?

Arriving with accredited, accurate baseline numbers means your first consult can focus on interpretation and next steps rather than ordering tests from scratch.

Can my Perth GP use these results?

Yes — the report is designed in a format Australian GPs and specialists are used to reviewing. Any decision about further investigation or treatment remains with your doctor.

TRT in Perth: What Gets Tested Before a TRT Assessment

Medically reviewed for factual accuracy by FORM's medical lead, who is registered to practise in Indonesia and is not registered with AHPRA. This review is general health information only. It is not Australian medical advice, and it does not create a practitioner–patient relationship. Speak to your own Australian-registered doctor about your results. Last updated 15 June 2026. About our medical lead.

In Australia, a TRT assessment starts with proper baseline bloods. Get accurate numbers first, from an accredited lab, before you commit to a Perth clinic or specialist.

FORM is a pathology testing service — we do not prescribe, supply or arrange testosterone; we are not a testosterone clinic.

A baseline hormone panel gives you and a Perth doctor a shared, accurate starting point rather than relying on symptoms alone.

A comprehensive workup covers total and free testosterone, SHBG, sensitive estradiol, LH, FSH, prolactin, cortisol, and full lipid and metabolic markers — the same baseline a competent Perth endocrinologist would typically order.

FORM provides an accredited-lab panel and a plain-English, expert-reviewed report on what each marker means. We are a pathology testing service, not a prescribing service — any treatment decision, including whether TRT is appropriate, rests with an Australian-registered doctor after their own assessment.

Accredited pathology. Australian samples are collected and analysed by Laverty Pathology (Healius), a NATA-accredited laboratory network assessed to ISO 15189 (Medical laboratories — requirements for quality and competence) against RCPA-aligned standards.

Medicare. pathology you request yourself is not Medicare-rebatable. A Medicare benefit is only payable when a treating practitioner requests the test and the request meets the relevant MBS item criteria. FORM panels are privately paid in full, and private health funds generally do not cover self-requested pathology either.

Prescription medicines. Testosterone is a Schedule 4 (prescription-only) medicine in Australia. It can only be prescribed by an Australian-registered doctor after their own assessment. FORM is a pathology testing service: we do not prescribe, supply, arrange or recommend testosterone or any other prescription medicine, and nothing on this page is advice to start treatment.
