Well...all endo's have a different tact and protocol, but most shoot for 200 pg/ml. 250 for T is still too high for most protocols. Around the <100 pg/ml range. This is definitely individual to the Doctor....but these numbers seem to be a good mean average for the MTF transitioner. Lisa

Leanne, my E level is at 160. That puts me in the low normal range for most women. It also means I feel great.
-
Heidi, My T level is 414 and my E is 241. I am on Spiro to lower my T but I am not taking anything to raise my E. I wish that my T was as low as yours. And I don't know why my E is as high as it is...............Leanne

You may have to up that Spiro to get Mr. T to get down. But, I was low T in the first place. Good luck!

Units, units, units, units. Measurements require units!!!!!
-
Ok Zooey, I got your Units: the E is in picograms per liter and the T is in nanograms per liter.
You sound like an old chemistry professor I had in college. And I'm an engineer and should know better.
For those not use to these small amounts, a picogram is 1/1000 a nanogram. So that 10 nanograms of T is still a lot compared to 0.16 nanograms of E.

Furlongs per fortnight.... bananograms... lol. I see the point though.... but Lisa's number were all in pg/ml right so it's all apples and apples?

In case it helps anyone, my levels have been very consistent for the last 1.5 years at around...
Estradiol : 211 pg/mL (Std. Mid-Cycle Peak Range 34-400)
Testosterone (Total): 20 ng/dL (Std Range 2-45)
Testosterone (Free); 1.3 pg/mL (Std Range 0.1-6.4)
Free testosterone is (effectively) the actual bio-available testosterone. All ranges are for females. For reference, the standard range for testosterone (total) for men my age would be 349-945 ng/dL, so even a man with "low T" has SIGNIFICANTLY more testosterone than a woman with relatively high T.
1 ng/dL = 10 pg/mL
