Pentagon mandates testosterone screening for men over 30, symptom checks for women
x/the-pentagon
— Sep 3, 2026
The Pentagon rolled out mandatory testosterone blood testing for all active-duty and reserve service members aged 30 and older, with younger men tested only on request or if symptoms warrant evaluation, while women will undergo symptom-based screening rather than routine testosterone tests; the program aims to boost readiness by identifying hormonal and energy-related health issues. The initiative has drawn criticism from some doctors about the lack of robust evidence for universal screening, and the FDA plans to convene a panel in mid-September to discuss testosterone use in medicine.
