Gender Care Standard Monitoring

This panel includes the labs needed to monitor gender affirming hormone therapy. This is typically performed every 3 months for the first 1 to 2 years of hormone therapy, or every 3 months for the first year after medication changes occur. If another interval was discussed during your visit, please use the recommended interval discussed during your visit. Additional labs may be indicated based on age, pre-existing conditions, family history and risk factors, and current medical symptoms. Hormone levels in the panel can vary drastically depending on the timing of current medications. You should always check with your provider first if you are unsure on timing lab draws. Result interpretation occurs during visits for established patients. Included labs: Estradiol (E2); Testosterone, Free & Total w/ SHBG; Comprehensive Metabolic Panel; CBC w/ Diff; Ferritin, B12
