Title: Testosterone
Post by: Trixiebell on April 25, 2024, 05:42:51 PM

Hi , I’ve just had bloods done and my testosterone is 1.5 the Dr has marked it as abnormal my last blood test was 1.5
Does this mean is way too high ?

1.5 is fine I believe - assuming this is total testosterone? (if they testing Shbg/fai they’re out of date).

Is there a typo - they are both 1.5?

Thanks for your reply I don’t think the bloods were for Shbg/fai

I've just had mine done and they are 1.6 (my meno dr says 1.8 or under is fine).  I'm on 0.5 androfemme per day (level was 0.7 before using the cream) xxxx

The range at my hosp test is up to 2 and my meno consultant relaxed about a bit higher.
