What role does Hormoncheck Männer play in Allergie?

The MyBody-X Hormoncheck Männer measures hormones such as testosterone, cortisol, and DHEA. These can modulate the immune system – for example, testosterone tends to be anti-inflammatory, while cortisol can suppress allergic reactions. However, this test is not a diagnostic tool for allergies. Allergies are primarily mediated by IgE antibodies and histamine, not by sex hormones. A hormone profile may provide clues about an accompanying imbalance that could influence allergy risk or symptom severity. The evidence is mostly mechanistic; there is no strong clinical study showing a direct benefit of this hormone check for allergy diagnosis. Caveat: hormone levels fluctuate diurnally and should always be interpreted by a physician. A single test does not replace an allergological workup (skin prick test, IgE measurement).
