Introduction: Scientific community is still discussing the issue of minimal free testosterone (Tfr) level required to maintain erectile function and spermatogenesis in men. The goal of the present study was to compare the values obtained by direct Tfr assay in ultrafiltered serum to calculated Tfr ...
2. Mean±SEM of plasma free testosterone with increasing age in normotensive (NT), systolic/diastolic hypertensive (HT) and isolated systolic hypertensive (ISH) men. was rounded to the nearest 1 cm; these values were measured while the subjects were barefoot and wearing light clothing. The BMI...
Hence, free testosterone (FT) is generally regarded as bioactive. It is unclear if albumin-bound T is also bioactive [21,22]. In our analyses, we used FT and non-SHBG- bound T (albumin-bound and free) as measures of bioactive T, in addition to the total T (TT)/SHBG ratio and TT...
Abstract. Context: Little is known about testosterone (T) levels and their determinants in women of late postmenopausal age.Objective: We describe levels o
For the latter group, the calculated free testosterone (cFT) was determined by a formula using serum level of albumin, TT and SHBG. Results The mean ± 2 SD of TT, FT and cFT were 513 ± 326 ng/dL (187–839 ng/dL), 13.2 ± 7.8) pg/mL (5.4–21.0 pg/mL) and 77.0 ± 43.4 ...
Anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) and testosterone (T) both play distinct roles in the early stages of folliculogenesis. However, the relationship between serum T and AMH levels is poorly understood. This study aimed to investigate the association between ser
Mean free testosterone was 2.6±1.8 pg/ml and mean DHEAS was 5.5±3.8 mg/l. Conclusion: The ovary is the main source of excess androgen in PCOS (50% of studied women) and excess adrenal androgen found in 30% of studied PCOS women, further large studies recommended to confirm this ...

Background: Testosterone (T) and estradiol (E2) play a critical role in male sexual function being essential for modulating libido and erectile function. We hypothesized that an imbalance of T/E2 ratio may be an important factor leading to the development of low sexual desire in ageing men. ...
