[QUOTE="madman, post: 197547, member: 13851"] I see no issues with where your FT level sits and if you feel well overall and blood markers are healthy then that is what truly matters. Even then if your FT level came back double the top end and you felt great let alone blood markers were healthy I would still see no issue! [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.labcorp.com/tests/500726/testosterone-free-mass-spectrometry-equilibrium-dialysis-endocrine-sciences[/URL] Prefer the reference range used by Labcorp FT (Equilibrium Dialysis) 52-280 pg/mL. Regardless as I stated earlier when it comes to the reference ranges for measured or calculated FT they vary between different labs, and as of now, there is no standardization let alone a harmonized reference range. Efforts are underway to standardize the procedures for FT and to generate harmonized reference ranges. The sooner this happens the better as there is much confusion when it comes to testing FT. FT 16-31 ng/dL would be considered healthy. Most men do well with FT in the 20-30 ng/dL range or slightly higher. Many tend to aim for the higher end Some men can run higher-end FT levels with no issues whereas others may struggle as it comes down to the individual. Believe it or not, some men may feel good with a FT 16 ng/dL. Need to find what is best for you and as you very well know symptom relief is what truly matters. We also need to keep in mind that many get caught up in the more T is better mentality and end up running absurdly high trough TT/FT levels thinking they need to achieve such to experience the beneficial effects of testosterone. Many of these same individuals end up struggling on a protocol especially when trying to chase that so-called optimal. Too many ends up having unrealistic expectations when it comes to trt and gets caught up in searching for that raging libido let alone expect that being on trt or running absurdly high T levels will have them running around with tons of energy, stellar mood, raging libido, titanium erections 24/7! Pipe dreams. [/QUOTE]
