Abstract

Clarifying what are normal testosterone (T) levels is not an easy task. Normal levels should always be determined using laboratory-specific reference range. Data derived from the literature are conflicting since, different Scientific Societies have proposed several different thresholds for normality, according to a consensus of experts or by analysis of normal distribution of T levels across different age bands, based on harmonized epidemiological studies. For instance, the Endocrine Society proposed in healthy, non-obese, young men, as a limit of low total T, 264 ng/dL (9.2 nmol/L).
