The flagship panel for men. 70+ biomarkers in a single draw covering every system Atlas scores, advanced cardio (ApoB, Lp(a)), full metabolic, complete thyroid with antibodies and Reverse T3, full male hormone profile (testosterone, free T, SHBG, DHT, E2 sensitive, DHEA-S, cortisol, IGF-1, LH, FSH, prolactin), PSA screening, iron and nutrients, and inflammation. Atlas AI delivers your FitScore with male-specific optimal ranges, category grades, and a personalized protocol. For men who want full coverage in one draw.
The FitScript Complete for Him panel is a full body blood test for men that covers blood cells and immunity, metabolic health, cardiovascular markers, liver, kidney and electrolytes, a complete thyroid group, male hormones, nutrients and iron, and inflammation. It is built for men who want a broad baseline rather than a single number.
Ordering happens online, the requisition is emailed, and the draw takes place at a Quest or partner lab location nationwide after a 12-hour fast. Results return in 5-7 business days, and Atlas, FitScript's AI health advisor, reads every marker against optimal ranges. The panel is $499 and is HSA/FSA eligible.
It measures nine groups of blood markers that together describe how the body is running day to day, from red and white cells through metabolic, cardiovascular, liver, kidney, thyroid, hormone, nutrient and inflammation markers. Everything below comes from one fasted blood draw.
| Group | Markers | What they show |
|---|---|---|
| Blood Cells & Immune | WBC, RBC, Hemoglobin, Hematocrit, MCV, MCH, MCHC, RDW, Platelets, MPV, Neutrophils, Lymphocytes, Monocytes, Eosinophils, Basophils | Oxygen carrying capacity, the balance of immune cell types and the cells involved in clotting |
| Metabolic | Fasting Glucose, Fasting Insulin, HbA1c, HOMA-IR, Uric Acid, Total Protein, Albumin, Globulin | How the body is handling sugar and insulin, plus protein status and purine handling |
| Cardiovascular | Total Cholesterol, LDL Cholesterol, HDL Cholesterol, Triglycerides, VLDL Cholesterol, Non-HDL Cholesterol, TC/HDL Ratio, ApoB, Lp(a), Homocysteine | Lipid levels, particle-related markers such as ApoB, and inherited lipid factors labs regard as relevant to long term cardiovascular risk |
| Liver | AST, ALT, GGT, Alkaline Phosphatase, Bilirubin (Total), Bilirubin (Direct) | Liver enzyme activity and bile handling |
| Kidney & Electrolytes | BUN, Creatinine, eGFR, BUN/Creatinine Ratio, Sodium, Potassium, Chloride, Calcium, Phosphorus, CO2 | Filtration capacity, hydration status and mineral balance |
| Thyroid Complete | TSH, Free T3, Free T4, Reverse T3, TPO Antibodies, Thyroglobulin Antibodies | Thyroid signalling, active and storage hormone levels and antibody activity |
| Male Hormones | Total Testosterone, Free Testosterone, SHBG, Estradiol (Sensitive), LH, FSH, Prolactin, DHEA-S, Cortisol (AM), IGF-1, DHT, PSA (Free + Total) | Hormone production, the pituitary signals behind it, binding protein levels and prostate-related markers |
| Nutrients & Iron | Vitamin D (25-OH), Vitamin B12, Folate, Magnesium (RBC), Zinc, Iron, Ferritin, TIBC, Iron Saturation | Nutrient status and the full iron picture, including storage and transport |
| Inflammation | hs-CRP, ESR, Fibrinogen | Low grade and acute inflammatory activity |
Numbers on the report are compared against typical lab reference ranges, which vary by lab, age and sex.
Because markers explain each other, and a single value read alone is easy to misread. The red cell markers behave as a family. Hemoglobin and Hematocrit describe oxygen carrying capacity, RBC counts the cells, and MCV, MCH and MCHC describe their size and hemoglobin content, which is exactly where the iron, B12 and folate results start to make sense. RDW adds the spread of cell sizes, which can be the first signal that more than one thing is going on. On the immune side, Total WBCs gives the headline figure while Neutrophils % and Lymphocytes % show the balance behind it, and Platelets with MPV round out the clotting side.
The hormone group works the same way. Total testosterone is heavily influenced by SHBG and albumin, so free testosterone and SHBG are measured alongside it rather than after the fact. LH and FSH indicate whether the pituitary signal is high, low or normal, which is how clinicians separate a testicular cause from a central one, and clinical guidance recommends measuring them when total testosterone is repeatedly below the reference range 12. Prolactin, estradiol measured by a sensitive assay, DHEA-S, morning cortisol and IGF-1 sit in the same group because each one can shift the interpretation of the others.
Metabolic and hormonal results also talk to each other. Research suggests that obesity and insulin resistance are associated with lower circulating testosterone in men, which is one reason fasting glucose, fasting insulin, HbA1c and HOMA-IR appear on the same report as the hormone group 3. Thyroid markers, ferritin and inflammation markers can all influence how energy, body composition and recovery feel, so testing them together reduces the number of follow-up draws needed to answer a simple question.
Men who want a broad, structured baseline rather than a single reassuring number. That often includes men in their thirties and beyond who have never had comprehensive bloodwork, men whose training, sleep or body composition has changed without an obvious reason, and men with a family history of cardiovascular disease, diabetes or thyroid conditions who want to see where their own markers sit.
It also suits men who want to look into symptoms that are real but non-specific. Low energy, reduced libido, low mood, poor recovery and changes in body composition are associated with low testosterone, although none of them confirms it on their own, and reviews of male hypogonadism stress that symptoms overlap heavily with sleep loss, medication effects and metabolic conditions 4. Testing is how that gets sorted out rather than guessed at. This article is educational and is not medical advice, and nobody needs this or any other panel. It is one way to replace assumptions with measurements.
The panel is ordered online and the lab requisition is emailed, so there is no in-person appointment needed before the draw. The blood draw happens at a Quest or partner lab location, and a 12-hour fast before the draw is required so the fasting glucose, fasting insulin and triglyceride results can be read properly. Water is fine during the fast.
Results return in 5-7 business days. Atlas, FitScript's AI health advisor, reads every marker against optimal ranges and explains what each group of results shows in context rather than flagging values in isolation. Add-on panels can be run from the same sample, which avoids a second visit if something specific is worth measuring at the same time. A licensed clinician decides on any next step, including whether any treatment is appropriate.
Fast for 12 hours before the draw and drink water, since mild dehydration can concentrate the sample and shift markers such as hematocrit, albumin and sodium. Morning appointments are preferable because cortisol and testosterone both follow a daily rhythm, and clinical guidance recommends sampling testosterone in the morning for exactly that reason 1.
A few practical points. Hard training, heavy alcohol intake and a poor night of sleep in the 24 hours before a draw can move inflammation, liver and hormone markers, so a normal week is a better week to test. High dose biotin, found in many hair, skin and nail supplements, can interfere with some immunoassays including thyroid and hormone assays, so it is worth telling the phlebotomist and your clinician what you take. Keep taking prescribed medication exactly as directed unless your own clinician tells you otherwise. Never stop a prescription to improve a lab result.
Start with the observation, then the possible meaning, then the conversation. A value shows what it shows. What it may reflect is a question for context, and what to do about it is a question for a clinician who knows your history.
| Standard reference range | Optimal range | |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | The range most results fall into for the lab's tested population | A narrower target band used for optimization |
| Where it comes from | The performing laboratory, varying by lab, age and sex | FitScript's optimization targets, applied by Atlas when reading results |
| How to use it | Flags results outside typical limits | Shows where a result sits within normal, as a direction of travel |
Optimal ranges are optimization targets, not diagnostic cut-offs, and a result inside or outside one is not a diagnosis. One draw is also a snapshot. Hormone and metabolic markers move with sleep, illness, training load and season, which is why guidance on male hormone assessment recommends confirming a low testosterone result on a second morning sample before drawing conclusions 51. Retesting every three to six months is a reasonable rhythm when something is being actively worked on, and annually when markers are stable. If any hormone treatment is considered, a licensed provider evaluates whether it is appropriate and monitors markers over time, and pooled analyses of outcomes in men receiving hormone treatment underline why that monitoring matters 6. Any result that is clearly outside the standard range is worth discussing with a clinician promptly, never ignoring.
It cannot diagnose anything. Blood markers describe chemistry at one moment, and a diagnosis comes from a clinician combining symptoms, examination, history and often further testing. A suboptimal result raises a question rather than answering one.
There are concrete blind spots. Fertility is a good example, since semen analysis and sometimes genetic or imaging studies are needed to assess testicular function properly, and hormone levels alone do not describe sperm production 7. Research also suggests that oxidative stress contributes to male infertility through mechanisms a routine blood panel does not measure 8. The panel does not include imaging, cardiac stress testing, sleep testing, colon or skin cancer screening, or a prostate examination, and PSA results are interpreted by a clinician alongside those assessments rather than on their own. Age-appropriate screening still applies.
It is the broadest of the three, covering both general health and hormonal markers in one draw.
| Panel | Focus | Tends to suit |
|---|---|---|
| FitScript Essential | Core general health markers | A first look at overall health |
| Hormone Panel for Him | The male hormone group in depth | Someone with recent general bloodwork who wants the hormone picture |
| Complete for Him | All nine marker groups together | Someone who wants general and hormonal markers read side by side |
The right choice depends on what you already have. Recent general bloodwork from a physician makes a focused hormone panel reasonable, while no recent labs at all usually makes the broader option more useful. On an ongoing membership, 150+ biomarkers tested per year turns single results into trends, which is where most of the value sits.
The panel is $499, and it is HSA/FSA eligible, so it can be paid for with those funds where your plan allows. That price covers the requisition, the draw at a Quest or partner lab location, the full marker list above and Atlas reading every result against optimal ranges.
Add-on panels can be processed from the same blood sample if something additional is worth measuring at the same time. Discuss your results, and any treatment that may follow, with a clinician or licensed provider who can review your full history.
Complete adds full male hormones (total + free T, SHBG, E2 sensitive, DHT, DHEA-S, cortisol, IGF-1, LH, FSH, prolactin), PSA screening, full thyroid (Free T3/T4, Reverse T3, TPO and Tg antibodies), ESR, Fibrinogen, and deeper iron and nutrient panels. 70+ markers vs Essential's 40+.
Yes. Complete, Him includes every marker a provider needs to evaluate TRT candidacy: total and free testosterone, SHBG, estradiol sensitive, LH, FSH, prolactin, DHT, PSA free+total, CBC for hematocrit, liver function, and a full metabolic baseline.
Only if you have specific concerns. Complete covers everything Atlas needs for your Health Score and protocol. Add Advanced Inflammation if your hs-CRP comes back elevated, Cardiovascular Deep for NMR lipoprotein fractionation if you have family heart-disease history, or Methylation+ if your homocysteine is elevated.
Yes, fast 10-12 hours. Draw blood before 10am, testosterone peaks in the early morning and drops 20-30% by afternoon. Water is fine. If you take thyroid medication, draw blood before your morning dose.
A men's health blood panel usually includes a complete blood count, metabolic and lipid markers, liver and kidney function, thyroid markers and the male hormone group. The FitScript Complete for Him panel also adds nutrients and iron studies plus inflammation markers such as hs-CRP, ESR and fibrinogen from one fasted draw.
A comprehensive male blood test goes wider than a routine draw. Standard checkups often cover a blood count, basic chemistry and cholesterol. A broader panel adds fasting insulin, HOMA-IR, ApoB, Lp(a), homocysteine, a full thyroid group with antibodies, hormone markers and iron studies, so results can be read in context rather than in isolation.
That depends on age, symptoms, family history and what a clinician recommends, so there is no single answer. Commonly reviewed markers include a complete blood count, fasting glucose and HbA1c, a lipid panel, liver and kidney markers, thyroid function, vitamin D and iron studies, with hormone markers added when symptoms warrant.
Yes, a 12-hour fast is required before the blood draw. Fasting keeps glucose, insulin and triglyceride results interpretable, since all three shift after eating. Water is fine and encouraged, because mild dehydration can concentrate the sample and move markers such as hematocrit, albumin and sodium slightly.
Results return in 5-7 business days after the draw. Atlas, FitScript's AI health advisor, reads every marker against optimal ranges and explains each group in context rather than flagging single values. A licensed clinician interprets results clinically and decides on any further testing or treatment that may be appropriate.
The panel is $499 and it is HSA/FSA eligible, so eligible funds can be used where your plan allows. That covers the emailed requisition, the draw at a Quest or partner lab location, the full marker list and Atlas reading every result against optimal ranges.
Every three to six months is a reasonable rhythm while something is being actively worked on, and roughly annually once markers are stable. Hormone and metabolic values move with sleep, training, illness and season, so one draw is a snapshot and trends over several draws carry far more useful information.
No. Hormone markers such as LH, FSH and testosterone describe part of the picture, but fertility assessment requires semen analysis and sometimes genetic or imaging tests. Blood markers cannot measure sperm production or quality, so results should be discussed with a clinician who can arrange the right follow-up testing.
