What is Decaliter and Nanogram in my Blood Panel Test Mean. HRT TRT
Decaliters and Nanograms
Nanogram is the chosen unit for measurement in the United States of America when measuring various hormones on blood tests, including testosterone. The range is from 250-350 nanograms per deciliter (ng/dl) on most labs, and up to 1000-1200 nanograms per deciliter (ng/dl) on most labs.
These ranges are what many Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) doctors use to determine if you are a candidate for replacement therapy.
A nanogram is 1, 1 billionth of a gram or 1/1,000,000,000 of a gram. 454 grams make 1 pound, so that tells you a bit of reference for how truly small a nanogram is. A deciliter is 1, 1 tenth of a liter, or 100 milliliters. Your Poland spring water bottle in your average vending machine is 1/2 a liter or 500 milliliters (ml). So, testosterone in men is measured in billionths of a gram per 100 milliliters (1/10th of a liter).
