Why are you asking for advice AND assuming people don’t know what you’re talking about all in the one line?. Wait until someone makes a mistake before you correct them. If you’re so smart and we’re so thick, why are you asking questions here that you could google in 2 seconds.

The testosterone level is relatively low in comparison to males. If you ever see a lady with an unusual amount body/facial hair, this is due to an excess of testosterone.

there is no industry-wide standard for what levels are normal. Some labs consider up to 200 a normal level for men and 70 a normal level for women, while some labs consider up to 1200 nanograms per deciliters (ng/dl) normal for men. Needless to say from a bodybuilding or athletic standpoint the closer to the upper level you are the better.

50 to 100 ng./dl. in women….but it really depends on the age.
It also depends on the lab you get tested at…..some labs say you should be under 70 ng/dl so…?

One source I saw stated that 15 to 70 ng./dl. is considered normal for women, but note that “normal” levels are different from person to person depending on age and other factors. As always it is best to consult a medical professional about this information.

women do have testosterone, it really depends becuase there is pre and post menopause levels and levels can be different if a women is pregant. I could tell you my level right now, but the problem is every lab has a different range of what it normal and what it not, so theres not really just one number that is normal. are you asking becuase of a endocrine problem? if so please email me if you have any other questions.

Different labs have varying ranges of what they consider normal with values ranging from the low 200s to over 1200 ng./dl (nanograms per deciliter) considered normal for men and from 15 to 70 ng./dl. considered normal for women. Much of the recent research suggests that people living with HIV should be in the upper range of normal, with men at ranges of at least 500 ng./dl. or higher. Jon Kaiser, M.D., author of Healing HIV, suggests that for peak health we should be in optimal ranges of 500 to 1000 ng./dl. of total testosterone levels for men, and 50 to 100 ng./dl. of total testosterone levels for women.
A deficiency of testosterone has been associated with depression, mood disturbances, loss of appetite, inability to grow muscle, loss of libido, fatigue and reduced quality of life.
