The Free Testosterone Test is a blood test that measures the amount of testosterone that is not bound to proteins in the blood. Testosterone is a male sex hormone that is also present in smaller amounts in females. It is responsible for a wide range of functions, including the development of male sexual characteristics, muscle and bone mass, and red blood cell production.

During the Free Testosterone Test, a healthcare professional will draw blood from a vein in your arm and send the sample to a laboratory for analysis. You may be asked to fast for 9-12 hours before the test to ensure accurate results.

Normal free testosterone levels vary depending on age and sex. In adult males, normal levels range from 5.25-20.7 ng/dL, while in adult females, normal levels range from 0.06-6.4 ng/dL. Low levels of free testosterone in males can lead to decreased sex drive, erectile dysfunction, fatigue, and other symptoms, while high levels in females can cause acne, hair loss, and other symptoms.

If your Free Testosterone Test results indicate low levels of free testosterone, your healthcare provider may recommend testosterone replacement therapy or other treatments to help restore normal levels.
