[QUOTE="sammmy, post: 189403, member: 38594"] Reference lab ranges are specific to the actual test used and they just tell you the relative position of the given specimen with respect to the group of people whose statistical data was used in constructing the reference range. Reference ranges of free testosterone cannot be compared between different lab tests because they do not actually measure the absolute value of free testosterone but some proxy of it, depending on the test. The best one can do is select one of the tests or a calculator that are considered consistent and see how the personal values change over time on the same test or calculator. The reference range will also tell you if you are 'high' or 'low'. Trying to compare values between different tests or calculators is simply a waste of time. [/QUOTE]
