[QUOTE="daves52380, post: 60833, member: 13488"] Vince, thanks for looking at the Labs. I'm so confused, I was told I'm seeing one of the leading Dr's for this. I was referred by Nelson. I went to aruplab.com to look at the tests offered. I found four different Estrodiol test a couple as liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry as you mentioned and another fractional MS another is Free Estrodiol LC/MS/MS. Will any test that is LC/MS/MS work for sensitive? I'm completely confused, you would think with the growth of TRT treatment in recent years that this would be clarified with a specific test for men or make if fool proof when ordering tests. Seems like this is happening to more rather ten less guys trying to get this right. Here's what I found, seems to me the first three tests are ok for men as they are all LC/MS/MS and the last one (the test I was given) is not ok because it is fractional MS?
