The “Impact of Stress on Men's Health” package is a comprehensive diagnostic tool that allows you to assess how chronic stress affects the male body. Stress can lead to various health disorders, both physical and mental. Chronic stress negatively impacts the hormonal system, metabolism, the heart, and the digestive system, which is why monitoring its effects is crucial in preventing serious health problems.
What does the package include?
- Complete blood count – a basic test assessing general health status and changes in blood composition that may indicate infections, anemia, or chronic inflammation often associated with long-term stress.
- Ferritin – a protein that stores iron in the body, useful in assessing iron reserves. Low ferritin levels may indicate anemia, which is often a result of chronic stress and poor diet.
- Vitamin B12 – essential for the nervous system; its deficiency can reduce stress tolerance and cause mood changes.
- Cortisol – the stress hormone, which increases in response to stressful situations. Chronically elevated cortisol can lead to immune system issues, metabolic disorders, and heart disease.
- Testosterone – the main male sex hormone that regulates many body functions. Stress can lower testosterone levels, leading to reduced energy, libido, and a higher risk of depression.
- Glucose – blood sugar levels can rise due to chronic stress, increasing the risk of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.
- HbA1c – indicates the average blood glucose level over the past 3 months and helps assess long-term diabetes and stress-related metabolic disorder risk.
- Lipid panel – assesses cholesterol profile, including LDL ("bad") and HDL ("good") cholesterol. Stress may increase cholesterol levels and the risk of heart disease.
- Lipoprotein A – a marker of cardiovascular risk that may be elevated in response to chronic stress.
- Uric acid – helps detect the risk of gout. Stress can raise uric acid levels, contributing to joint disorders.
- Creatinine – a kidney function marker. Chronic stress may lead to kidney damage, and monitoring creatinine levels helps detect such conditions.
- ALT (alanine aminotransferase) – a liver enzyme that may rise due to liver damage, which can result from chronic stress and an unhealthy lifestyle.
- Natriuretic peptide (BNP) – used to diagnose heart diseases, especially heart failure. Chronic stress can affect heart health and increase such risks.
- TSH – a thyroid hormone that regulates metabolism. Stress can impact thyroid function, leading to hormonal disorders like hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism.
- Vitamin D metabolite 25(OH) – a vitamin whose deficiency can weaken immunity, cause joint pain, and mood issues. It's worth monitoring, as stress can affect its absorption.
- Helicobacter pylori in stool (CLIA method) – detects the presence of Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium that can cause stomach and duodenal ulcers. Stress is one of the factors that may promote its development, leading to digestive issues and abdominal pain.
