[QUOTE="madman, post: 236152, member: 13851"] Forget worrying about the calculators! You had your FT tested using one of the most accurate assays (Equilibrium Dialysis). Also need to keep in mind that not all ED devices/procedures are the same. Quest's Equilibrium Dialysis is not the end all be all. Put money on it that if you tested using Labcorps ED or better yet Equilibrium Ultrafiltration they would all give different results. This FT s**t show will be coming to an end soon enough! FT is over the top end of the reference range. Most men will do well with FT 20-30 ng/dL. Some may choose/want to run higher levels. Highly doubtful that one would need a trough FT well over 30 ng/dL to experience the full beneficial effects of testosterone. Far from common that anyone natty is hitting top-end levels and that is at peak.
