[QUOTE="Vince, post: 29965, member: 843"] Free - testosterone is the portion of testosterone (T) that is available to enter a cell and bind to the androgen receptor to turn on a variety of anabolic genes to synthesize a variety of T dependent proteins. These tissues include muscle, brain, penis, bone, heart and other tissues. Free T is the active form of T that can enter the cell. The main binding of T is to SHBG and albumin. There are different ways to determine FT. Some use [I]free androgen index method,[/I] which is done by a calculation formula. Recently the LC/MS-MS (liquid chromatography / mass spectroscopy) has become the most widely and easy to use method. There is an [B]epidemic[/B] around the world of men with insufficient FT levels of less than 15-20 pg/mL and excess E2 levels greater than 35 to 40 pg/ml. When there is excess E2 it may indicate excess aromataze enzyme activity.
