• Hormone ranges are based upon pooled data.
• Usually a two standard deviations a randomized mean defines the range.
• Ranges may be narrow; i.e. – Post-menopausal Progesterone (0.1-0.8 ng/ml)
• Ranges may be broad; Total Testosterone: 264 to 916 ng/ml.
Hormone levels should be centered around the median level of its acceptable range. The ideal net effect is that the levels are close to the median of the range
