T results explained Plz

I requested My Testosterone level checked last week because for some strange reason I`m not into sex like I use to be.

I asked him to check it and he said he would check a certain type of testosterone in my that is the ones that would be responsible for that issue.

He wrote down the results for me telling me that the proper levels are between Reference ---> 5.76-30 and that I had 5.7 with the difference being 0.06.

Does this make sense to anyone?

I goggled this and all I see is that they should be 200 to 800 etc?

Thanks in advance

There are stickies at the top of this forum and sub forum that will answer that question.

Folks around here are incredibly knowledgeable and helpful but it's best you put in some self-directed effort first.

Good luck!

You need to include the measurement is it pmol/L?

If thats the range given to you then you have low testosterone .

200-800 is ng/dl

You need to get an actual copy of the blood work. It's yours. You paid for it. Call the lab and follow their protocols if you don't think the doc will help. There is much more to it than just one blood test. There are a variety of reasons you may feel like you do and you really should see the entire lab report, then post it with ranges here for review. Not all doc's are up to speed on these things, unfortunately.

And current serum T lab range is 348- - 1197 for most labs. But as stated, that is only one number and not as important as others we need to see if possible.
