Thank you for sharing your question with the EmpowHER community. It's awesome that you are looking out for your hubby's best interests and taking an active role in his health. Even healthy men should have a physical by their doctor to make sure they are in tip top shape!
I found a list of common blood tests for men that I can share with you. Each person is different and his doctor may or may not order all of these tests for whatever reason. If you are concerned, make sure your voice is heard and tell the doctor that you want the most comprehensive testing done.
How is your husband's health? Are there any concerns that you or he have about his health? Any unusual symptoms that he is experiencing or is this just a routine visit? Please let me know.
Here's the list:
Complete Blood Count (CBC)
Chemistry Panel
Basic Check-Up Panel
Lipid Panel or Heart Health Panel
Lipoprotein Particle Profile (LPP)
C-Reactive Protein
Thyroid Panel
Testosterone Test
Pre-Testosterone Replacement Therapy Panel
Continued Testosterone Replacement Therapy Panel
PSA
Growth Hormone Panel
Telomere Test
Vitamin D Levels
Vitamin B-12 Test
Micronutrient Test
Food, Environmental or Chemical Intolerance or Sensitivity
