I did some blood tests yesterday at 11 AM (so even a bit later than recommended), and I am confused because my T levels seems to be really high. I had expected them to be low. I am not on TRT but was interested in getting on it.
Results:
Total Testosterone: 36.3 nmol/L (1047 ng/dl)
Free Testosterone: 565 pmol/L (44 ng/dl) - range: 180-739 pmol/L
Estradiol 2 (E2): 62 pmol/L (16.9 pg/ml) - range: 40-161 pmol/L
SHBG: 63.9 nmol/L - range: 11.1 - 78.1
FSH: 1.8 U/L - range 1.0 - 12.0
LH: 2.9 U/L - range 1.8 - 8.2
Prolactin: 15.7 ng/mL - range 3.6 - 18.1
Symptoms:
Depression, anxiety, low sex drive, fatigue, inability to focus.
Other thoughts:
Had not been sleeping very well leading up to the test, and as mentioned, also took it at 11AM. Do you think the lab could have made a mistake and read my levels at 1047 where as it really should've been 104.7? Or do I simply have high T?
