What the engine reports

Detected clinical pattern

Criteria for Testosterone Deficiency Met

Symptoms with low total testosterone on two samples (205 and 190 ng/dL). Primary pattern. The cause still has to be found.

  • Axis: Primary (hypergonadotropic) pattern

Why this pattern was identified

  • Low testosterone on two samples. 205 and 190 ng/dL are both below 300 ng/dL (AUA). With compatible symptoms, the criteria for testosterone deficiency are met.
  • Primary pattern. LH 22 and FSH 31 IU/L are above the upper limit with low testosterone: the testes are the likely site.

Calculations

Calculated free testosterone (Vermeulen)
3.5 ng/dL

No threshold is applied: cutoffs are assay-specific.

Evidence and rule trace · 3 rules

HG-CALC-01Calculated free testosterone

Inputs: total testosterone 205 ng/dL · SHBG 40 nmol/L · albumin 4.3 g/dL

Calculated free testosterone 3.5 ng/dL.

HG-03Low testosterone confirmed on two samples

Inputs: 205 ng/dL · 190 ng/dL

Biochemically low testosterone on two samples.

HG-05Primary (hypergonadotropic) pattern

Inputs: LH 22 IU/L · FSH 31 IU/L · total testosterone 205 ng/dL

Pattern of primary testicular failure.
