    What should levels be for 55 year old?

    My buddy just got tested at 450. Does anyone know what the free test range is for someone who is 55?

    that is your total test, the range given by my lab is 241-827
    free test is given as a small number, as a % of total mine is 0.38% or 1.58, the range for 50+ is 0.80-3.50

    for 55...that level isnt super low but symptoms are more a factor....maybe the guy used to have levels around 1,000 and now 450 feels like kryptonite
