Why does Defy Medical require in-depth blood work?

Back to FAQs

Defy Medical requires comprehensive lab work because it helps us provide individualized and informed care.

Our required panels include treatment-specific tests like hormone levels for HRT and TRT, along with common health screening tests to check thyroid function, kidney function, overall wellness, and more.

These lab results help our providers pinpoint the cause of your symptoms, identify other health issues that may be impacting you, and ensure your treatment is the right fit for you. We’ve helped many patients diagnose previously unknown conditions through our in-depth testing.

We require thorough follow-up testing to ensure that your levels are trending in the right direction. Ongoing lab work also helps our Care Team identify the cause of potential side effects and make adjustments to reduce those effects.
