Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), Free, LC/MS/Dialysis

Free Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), LC/MS/Dialysis is a specialized blood test that measures the concentration of free (unbound) dihydrotestosterone, a potent androgen hormone crucial for male development and reproductive health. This test uses liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) combined with dialysis to provide precise and accurate measurements of free DHT levels, which are often more clinically relevant than total DHT levels. Free DHT levels are important in evaluating conditions related to androgen excess or deficiency, such as androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness), hirsutism (excessive hair growth), and prostate disorders.
