Estradiol test Roche eclia vs liquid chromatography

Hello, my doc ordered estradiol test from lab Corp and it was Roche eclia methodology which I was at 36.9 and range was 7.6to 42.6
I ordered an ultra sensitive one through discount labs website and took it to labcorp thinking my doc didn't order the sensitive one. It was the liquid chromatography tandem mass spect which I scored 36.9 with a range of 8.0 -35.0
Which one is sensitive and which one is regular? Or they both sensitive?
 
I can pull a higher sensitive than ROCHE is the exact same blood draw, and I've seen them within a few points, too. Pointless to try and compare no matter what they read, ROCHE is wrong.
 
It was the same day! I took my bought discounted labs paper for sensitive into lab Corp along with what doc gave me to bring in. I wasn't for sure doc was gonna order sensitive so I bought my own and had them test it same day.
 
Hmm, i inquired about this on my last set of labs i posted here on Monday and it was suggested the ECLIA test was wrong. Wondering if i should do the sensitive from DL. So the ECLIA usually shows too high or too low from your actual level?

Dont even think about it that way...its the wrong test and has no value to males. Just like Estrone in your other thread, it's just plain wrong and of no use.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
