[QUOTE="TucsonJJ, post: 180825, member: 40106"] Lots of factors to consider... I am no expert, but have done a lot of reading... I wiuod say that a level of 70pg/ml, which equates to 7.0 ng/dl may well be low... IF symptoms of Low T are present. The range of 35-144pg/ml, (3.5-14.4/ng) probably Sonora Quest, IMO, is an outrage... anyone with a Free T of 35pg (3.5ng) is actually on potentially dangerous ground in terms of much higher prostate cancer risk and heart trouble. Yes, many think that 20-30ng is a "sweet spot"... sounds about right, but again, consultation with a physician/pro who knows what they are doing (very rare) is important. Free T test ranges vary widely, which shows they are goofy. MY Free T has been low for years, but my Docs were all to dang dumb to mention it... last two tests, 5.2 Free T... (range 6.6-18.1 per LabCorp) and yes, I have had serious symptoms for YEARS. Estradiol is a bit high at 39 too. I am finally going to see a knowledgeable Doc and get on TRT. I have seen no less than 7 physicians who knew nothing about hormone imbalance... frustrating and dangerous! [/QUOTE]
