Oh and there was a doctors note attached to the test.
Doctor's Comments
A significant rise in testosterone level is noted. Although the laboratory reference range is quoted as 0-1.8 nmol/l, levels of greater than 2 are seen in 5% or more of the female population, and would be considered in many cases to be healthy. As the laboratory have indicated on the report, occasional false elevations are seen when measuring testosterone in serum. Elevations can occur as a result of testosterone supplementation which is sometimes offered to women alongside HRT therapy. Higher (but not excessively high levels) of testosterone are associated with increased libido, athleticism, and other favourable characteristics. Repeat testing may be advisable (along with SHBG, as advised by the laboratory) unless this is an expected result, for example from supplementation. If the level remained high, further investigation may be indicated.
