Did you know they ran the wrong Estradiol test on you? It is obviously for women on HRT.

swale, I did not know that.........which is the right one?

on the lab report it says (for men <50 is normal range)

0-50 is a very wide range for men. You wouldn't know if you are low or border line hi.

You can ask the lab Tech. to send the blood to Quest and have the E2 tested using "The Nichols Estradiol ASSAY (Extraction/Chromatography/RIA Method) Order Code 30289. But make sure that the ask this to be done only on your E2. The did my Total and Free T and my BCBS does not pay for that.
