[QUOTE="Cataceous, post: 221259, member: 38109"] At first glance I'd say that total testosterone is way up there for a woman. The high SHBG is only part of the explanation. They are using the Vermeulen method to calculate free testosterone of 17.9 pg/mL. If you assume that number is correct and consider a midrange SHBG level of 70 nMol/L then total testosterone drops to 160 ng/dL, which is still excessive. If you want more certainty then you could measure free testosterone by equilibrium dialysis. But I don't think it's a close call: she's getting too much testosterone. I don't know what good practice is with respect to progesterone and estradiol levels, so can't comment there. DHEA-S doesn't worry me too much because the range is age-adjusted, and it may be okay to have more youthful levels. Clearly the B-12 is excessive and any supplementation should be reduced. Same with the vitamin D: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.peaktestosterone.com/dangers_high_vitamin/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
