[QUOTE="madman, post: 228138, member: 13851"] Again it's an inaccurate assay and should not be used! No way you are hitting an average FT with a TT 1500+ ng/dL even with highish/high SHBG. You are hitting an absurdly high TT 1500+ ng/dL which means your FT is going to be high/absurdly high even if you have highish/high SHBG. For the last time, you need to have your FT tested using the most accurate assays Equilibrium Dialysis or Ultrafiltration, especially in cases of [B][I]ALTERED SHBG![/I][/B] Even then you did not use the most accurate assay for TT (LC-MS/MS) otherwise you would have known where your TT level truly sat as the analytical measurement range 1.0 ng/dL - 2,000+ ng/dL. [B][U]Method Used for Total Testosterone[/U]: [I]– Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS)- [U]No upper or lower limit[/U] – Analytical sensitivity: [U]1.0 ng/dL[/U] – Analytical specificity: [U]no cross-reactivity with other steroid compounds or supplements like biotin[/U]/[/I][/B] [I][B]– Analytical Measurement Range: [U]1.0 ng/dL to 2,000+ ng/dL[/U][/B][/I] You had it tested using the standard immunoassay which caps out at 1500 ng/dL. For all, we know your TT 1600, 1700, 1800....who the F**K knows! You clearly have no clue what you are doing. Man up and have your blood work done using the most accurate assays (TT/FT/estradiol). [B][/B] Same sob story here. You are going to be chasing your tail until the cows come home![B] [/B] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.excelmale.com/forum/threads/what-factors-could-influence-total-t-result.25019/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
