Free Testosterone, Percent (Female)

Optimal Result: 1.6 - 2.9 %.

Free Testosterone, Direct (Female) is a crucial marker for women's health. It represents the unbound fraction of testosterone, a hormone typically associated with males but also vital for women. In women, optimal levels of free testosterone are necessary for various body functions, including muscle strength, energy, libido, and overall well-being. Low levels can cause symptoms like fatigue, muscle weakness, sleep disturbances, and reduced sex drive. On the other hand, high levels may indicate conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), leading to symptoms such as infertility, irregular menstruation, and acne. This marker is essential for understanding hormonal balance in women.

What does it mean if your Free Testosterone, Percent (Female) result is too low?

 

Low free testosterone percentage in females can be indicative of hypogonadism or androgen deficiency. Scientifically, testosterone, although predominantly a male hormone, plays a crucial role in female health, influencing muscle strength, bone density, libido, and overall well-being. In women, testosterone is produced in the ovaries and adrenal glands. Low levels can disrupt normal physiological functions, leading to symptoms like decreased muscle mass, fatigue, reduced sexual desire, and osteoporosis. Treatment strategies often involve addressing lifestyle factors, hormonal therapies, or managing underlying conditions that might contribute to the hormonal imbalance. However, it's essential to approach treatment under medical guidance, as the hormonal needs and responses in women are complex and unique to each individual.
