Note

Morning sample (ideally 07:00 -10:00 h), circadian rhythm with peak values in the morning. | We advise against the direct determination of free testosterone as these measurements are considered unreliable. This is especially true for samples in which low values are to be expected (women and children). Instead, we recommend the calculation based on testosterone total, SHBG and albumin. Therefore select the status Testosterone free and bioavailable (calculated).
