    Yes ceelo, as you can see that is low.
    Testosterone within the circulation is principally bound to proteins,
    the most important of which is sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG).
    Only about 2 percent of testosterone is unbound (bio-available) and
    therefore free to enter cells in order to effect its biological
    actions by binding to androgen receptors.
    Hypotestosteronaemia levels [that is, low levels] quoted in papers
    vary between around 300 ng/dl (10.4 nmol/L) and 400 ng/dl (13.9
    nmol/L).

    Wow Lats, thanks for the informative post. I am going to start a new post, because I don't want to hi-jack this thread. But it will deal with why my low libido and if its related to the sex hormone you speak of.

    See if you can help me out.
