I asked for these and Free T testing method in the other thread, never got them. I expect this thread to disappear and be forgotten without them.No complete labs, no units, no ref ranges.
You're effectively playing the lottery and asking us if you're going to win or not.Any chance my Endo can put me on something?
I do know the ref range for the test was 250-1100,free test 46-224. Maybe I should ask my endo for other blood work?No complete labs, no units, no ref ranges.
That's Quest labs calculated free T in pg/ml. Many people have started TRT due to free T that low. 62.5 pg/ml is officially hypogonadal according to the guidelines of multiple medical organizations when accompanied by low T symptoms. Free T is the primary determinant of eugonadism or hypogonadism, NOT total testosterone. What is your SHBG value? It must be quite high.I do know the ref range for the test was 250-1100,free test 46-224. Maybe I should ask my endo for other blood work?
