Hmmm, maybe I can help here? To state my credentials: medical laboratory scientist in clinical biochemistry, hematology, and transfusion medicine.
This is a new thought. Umm. Considering you're trying to monitor endocrine function Im gonna say a thyroid panel (TSH/T4/FT4/T3 Uptake), PSA, Vitamin D(25), Progesterone, Cortisol, obviously Testosterone (free and % saturation), Estrogen, Estradiol, and a complete metabolic panel.

Thats off the top of my head
This is probably why i can catch hidden factors
Then kick in a nutreval and health evaluation you got your cause symptoms taken care off.
This method is pretty much fail safe if there are any imbalances to be found
