WHERE ARE YOU STARTING?
A first assessment.
Or a fresh review.
Already receiving treatment?
We welcome enquiries from people using another provider. Your existing prescriptions, treatment history and monitoring need review before we can agree whether to take over your treatment.

BLOOD TESTS, EXPLAINED
Your results.
Considered properly.
Blood tests are arranged with an external testing provider. Before buying a test, ask us to confirm which markers and sample type are needed for your assessment or review.
We accept reports from other providers for clinical review. Your clinician checks whether they are suitable and current; repeat or additional testing may still be needed.
Existing patient? Open your accountHave a report already?
Keep the full laboratory report, including the sample date, units and reference ranges. We will explain how to share it securely through your patient account.
Need new tests?
We confirm the tests and preparation needed. You arrange and pay the external provider separately, then share your results for review. A testing fee does not include Atlas House treatment and does not guarantee a prescription.
What happens after the results?
We consider the results alongside your symptoms and medical history, then explain suitable next steps, any further checks and the costs of an agreed treatment plan.
LOOK AT THE WHOLE PICTURE
Symptoms are a starting point.
A lower sex drive, erection difficulties, tiredness or changes in mood can have many causes. These symptoms alone do not establish testosterone deficiency, and testosterone levels do not tell the whole story.
We look at your symptoms alongside your medical history, current medicines, sleep, general health and blood results. Depending on your circumstances, we may recommend an examination, further investigations or specialist referral.
What assessment involves
- A discussion of your symptoms, health and treatment goals.
- Appropriately timed blood tests. Confirmation usually involves morning testosterone measurements on at least two separate occasions.
- A review of possible underlying or reversible causes.
- A discussion of fertility plans, treatment considerations and appropriate next steps.
An assessment does not guarantee a diagnosis or prescription.
IF TREATMENT IS APPROPRIATE
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT).
TRT is a prescription-only treatment that may be considered when testosterone deficiency has been confirmed and treatment is clinically appropriate. It is one possible outcome of assessment; another approach or specialist input may be more suitable.
Response varies. Symptoms with another cause may not improve with TRT. Your clinician will discuss the potential benefits, risks and alternatives before you decide.
Ongoing review matters
TRT requires regular clinical review and blood tests. Monitoring considers symptoms, testosterone levels and safety checks, including blood count and prostate-related assessment where appropriate.
Possible side effects include acne, fluid retention and a raised red blood cell count. The risks and monitoring needed depend on your circumstances and the treatment prescribed.
TRT can reduce sperm production and affect fertility. Tell your clinician if you are trying for a family or may want children in the future before starting treatment.

Agree the next steps
We’ll explain the assessment process and any tests or appointments needed. No payment before Atlas House clinical review. If treatment is suitable, we explain the plan and costs before you choose whether to proceed. External testing is a separate paid service.
Review your treatment
If treatment is appropriate, we’ll agree your plan and follow-up. Prescriptions depend on clinical review, with monitoring and any further investigations explained to you.
Does a low result mean I need TRT?
No. The timing of the test, repeat results, symptoms and possible underlying causes all matter. Your clinician will explain what the results mean in your circumstances.
Can you review treatment I already take?
Yes. We welcome enquiries about existing treatment and transfers from other providers. We review your prescriptions, history and monitoring before deciding whether we can take over treatment. A prescription is not guaranteed.
What if I want children?
Discuss this before starting or changing treatment. TRT can suppress sperm production and affect fertility, so specialist advice or another approach may be needed.
How often will I need reviews?
Your clinician will explain a monitoring plan based on your health, treatment and results. Follow-up may include blood tests, symptom review and other safety checks. Do not change prescribed treatment without clinical advice.
Can I use blood results from another provider?
Yes. Keep your full laboratory report and ask us how to share it securely. Your clinician checks its timing, markers and suitability. Additional or repeat tests may be needed.
When will you reply?
We respond within 24 hours. This is a reply, not a promise that testing, the full review or treatment will be complete within that time.
