[QUOTE="Dr Justin Saya MD, post: 53287, member: 12687"] Lastly regarding johndoesmith mention of SHBG testing. We don't draw this lab for every patient routinely as we try to balance cost vs necessity (seeing that patients are cash-pay for the labs - and SHBG is a comparatively more expensive test). When there is suspicion of a clinically significant SHBG level (low/high) based on Total T/Free T ratio or otherwise clinical suspicion, then we feel the benefit of drawing the SHBG outweighs the cost for the patient and we add it on follow-up. It's purely customized to each patient with the art of trying to treat patients effectively while at the same time keep their costs as affordable as possible. [/QUOTE]
