Great lab testing begins long before the sample reaches the instrument!

When selecting a laboratory partner, consider:

- How fast will you get results?
- How are those results shared with you?
- Who’s available for questions that pop up?

These answers impact your experience long after an order is placed. 💡

The symptoms may be similar. The stories behind them may be very different.

That’s part of what makes a personalized approach to healthcare so important.

Awareness is just the start; it opens the door to meaningful conversations.

Breast cancer screening isn’t one-size-fits-all! Factors like age, family history, and breast density all play a role in shaping discussions with patients.

Let’s take this month as an opportunity to engage our patients and ensure they have the info they need for informed choices.

In this webinar, Suelyn Hall, MD, will explore the complex relationship between cannabis use and sexual health in both men and women.

Attendees will review current evidence regarding the impact of cannabis on sexual desire, arousal, orgasm, erectile function, reproductive hormones, sperm health, fertility, and long-term reproductive outcomes. Special attention will be given to understanding how frequency of use, dosage, and individual patient factors may influence clinical presentation and treatment considerations.

Iron deficiency may be more common than you think.

An estimated 1 in 3 people are affected, yet many cases remain undiagnosed.

The American Society of Hematology (ASH) has issued new guidance with updated ferritin thresholds to help providers identify iron deficiency earlier and more accurately.

Swipe through to see what’s changing and why it matters.

“The presence of IgG antibodies indicates exposure to food, not always necessarily to an adverse reaction.”

That is Dr. Mitch Ghen on the test itself, and it is the sentence to keep.

IgE is the immediate one. Acute reactions, anaphylaxis, angioedema. He calls it the gold standard for diagnosing true food allergy.

IgG is delayed and far more abundant in circulation. Some read a positive result as tolerance rather than intolerance, since IgG binding to food proteins may prevent them from triggering an inflammatory response.

His position: you cannot resolve that from the number. You resolve it against the history and the exam.

Two tests, two questions. Ordering one and reading it as an answer to the other is where the confusion starts.

Which do you reach for more often?

Changes in energy, mood, performance, and sexual health may be connected by more than one hormone.

Testosterone may begin declining in the mid-30s, followed by changes in estrogen and progesterone in the 40s. Cortisol and thyroid function can also influence how patients feel and function—because hormones rarely work alone.

Join Dr. Suelyn Hall for a free Access Live webinar on connecting these markers and using a more complete view of hormone health to inform patient care.

Your Friday reminder: hormones don’t fail one at a time, so reading them one at a time is how patients get over-treated or under-treated.

✨ Elevated prolactin can suppress hypothalamic GnRH signaling, which may reduce LH and FSH and contribute to hypogonadism.
✨ Repeated high LH with normal testosterone isn’t a normal result; it’s the pituitary compensating.
✨ Free testosterone low with total normal is usually an SHBG question
✨ A normal TSH describes signaling, not tissue conversion
✨ Sleep and anxiety often sit upstream, in pregnenolone and progesterone

Swipe for all five 👉 then save this for your next complex panel.

Which one do you catch most often? Tell us below ⬇️

“Normal is a frame of reference. It’s not law.”

Here’s what a reference interval actually is:
✨ Built from the central 95% of a reference population
✨ It answers “is this unusual,” not “is this healthy”
✨ Which means 5% of well people fall outside it by design
✨ And a patient can sit inside it while having moved far from their own normal

The caution runs both ways. “Optimal” ranges need evidence too, and plenty in circulation are vendor-defined rather than derived.

What closes the gap is the patient’s own history. A prior draw, a symptom picture, a trend.

How do you handle an in-range result in a symptomatic patient? Tell us below ⬇️
