What’s the difference between E2 sensitive by LabCorp and E2 ultrasensitive by Quest?

[Gman86]

Anyone know the difference between E2 sensitive, and E2 ultrasensitive? And which one should I get? They’re both the same price on discounted labs.com. Thanks.

Same thing. Different names by different companies

I am going to stop the sensitive as mine are usually about the same result! The sensitive seems to hold up my results anyway. I know you guys like it but for me it is not worth it. My last Labcorp they forgot 3 test that had been ordered so look forward to trying quest soon. I am getting my last LabCorp shortly.

So do you plan on using the non-sens E2 in the future, or doing the sensitive, just with quest?

For me I have just never see much of a difference between the two tests. I have also noticed it is the one that holds up the results and can be inaccurate. I am sure I will use LC some because that is who my doctor uses but will use DL with quest.

@Nelson Vergel how do I know which test uses labcorp, and which test uses quest? I checked all the info with each, and they both say to find the nearest labcorp in the “HOW DOES DISCOUNTEDLABS.COM WORK?”
