Great post doc. I have never got my levels tested but would like to do it in the near future. I will probably get burned by asking this but on these tests do they post what your normal ranges are for comparison? What is a normal test range?
In the back
So I need to go in for blood tests and wanted to hear what PrivatemdLabs had to say about the tests - Below is my email to them
Hello,
I am looking to order blood tests and I am primarily concerned with two results: Testosterone and Estradiol. My only concern is that I want to make sure my testosterone reading will not be capped at 1500ng/ml. I know there are many tests that include testosterone (below I posted a couple that I found). The female hormone panel seems to be the most cost effective, but I have heard it only reads testosterone levels up to 1500ng/dl. What tests are available to get an accurate reading with no upper limit - Again I’m primarily worried about testosterone and estradiol, although a complete blood count profile wouldn’t hurt either.
Test Name Price
Hormone Panel for Males Test Details $172.49 Remove
Testosterone, Total, Serum Test Details $47.49 Remove
Estradiol Test Details $50.99 Remove
Hormone Panel for Females Test Details $62.99 Remove
Thank you,
Lupinator
Lup, any panel for total testosterone that says LC/MS is considered a sensitive assay and will not be capped at 1500ng/dL. Privatemdlabs has a few different options for this.
***Thanks to Assassin32 for bringing the following to my attention:
Labsmd.com has a female hormone panel that includes a sensitive assay total testosterone panel (LC/MS), LH, FSH, E2 (Roche Eclia methodology NOT a sensitive assay E2 test), CBC w/ differential platelet count, and a metabolic panel all for $72.99. Labsmd uses Quest Diagnostics as their lab not labcorp but give them a look.
That's perfect too - the test in privatemdlab's response does have free test added - either are good values
I started typing my response to you before I saw privatemd's response haha. That's actually not a bad deal if it includes free test also. Thanks for updating us brother. I need to update this thread as many things have changed. You plan on going soon to pull labs?
Yessir, the next couple of weeks - I've been itching to add stuff to my cruise. Plus I'm switching my AI source soon, and switching my test source soon after that - wanted to make sure everything is copacetic with the new shit. And as soon as I post this I'm leaving to donate blood - prolly just platelets - so I can see where my lipids are
That test from privatemd is the one I got done on Friday. Results should be back this week sometime. I want to add a compound to my cruise also. I'll be hitting you up for help Doc
