Dr. Rania Mousa General Medicine
The test for sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) is primarily ordered in conjunction with other tests to evaluate the status of a person's androgen levels - the male hormones. With men, the issue of concern is testosterone deficiency, while with women the concern is excess testosterone production. A total testosterone may be ordered prior to or along with a SHBG test.

SHBG and testosterone levels may be ordered on an adult male to help determine the cause of infertility, a decreased sex drive, and erectile dysfunction, especially when total testosterone results are inconsistent with clinical signs.

esting for free testosterone, albumin level, and one or more other sex hormones, such as prolactin, estradiol, and LH (lutenizing hormone), may also be performed to evaluate a person's existing balance of hormones.

Currently, the SHBG test is not performed frequently or routinely. In many cases, doctors feel that the total testosterone, and perhaps free testosterone, provides sufficient information. SHBG is ordered primarily when the total testosterone results do not seem to be consistent with clinical signs, such as decreased sex drive in men or hirsutism in women.

you can check if concerned but not necessarily you have a problem if you don't feel anything when seeing such films this is normal for some people and for some may be disgusting but if the problem remains when going through a real relationship and love and you had no response towards seeing or touching a women you may have a problem to be investigated .
