i got them done in the Philippines. and my test is high on the range just the estrogen im worried about. i only got these results and no other
So if your testosterone is in range on the test at 13 ng/dl it's not in conventional units it's in SI which is 13.0 nmol/Liter which means your estradiol is in range at 70 pmol/L not pg/ml. Merck Manuel has it at 37-110 pmol/L which is 10-30pg/ml in conventional units.
Your testosterone is at 374.63 ng/dl
I'm mostly familiar with the ng/dl format for testosterone readings. As far as your estrogen some studies say 10-30pg/ml are considered normal reference ranges, while others say 10-80pg/ml are normal. Either way you're floating on the upper limits of estrogen and might want to consider running some aromasin for a month or so.
eryximachusYou're on an America forum. No one is going to understand that stuff. If you're in the UK, if my memory serves me correctly, your test is low, but not low enough to get on TRT with the NHS. The estrogen is high, and from my recollection, endos in the UK don't treat this.
Theres plenty of people from UK to understand UK blood tests but i dont think this is correct measurements unless its measurements of another country, uk measurements for test and i think estradiol is mnol
If u wanna know just times it by 29.2 to get the ng/dl (american) translation
When you post numbers you need to include the reference range. The whole set of labs would also be helpful along with some sort of personal history. Otherwise this is useless information and nobody will be able to help you. The more information you give the more you will be able to get back.
Are you sure you posted that correctly? Where did you get your labs done? Can you post your labs?
