I have removed my recent post due to its "inflammatory" nature (not your comments, basically my title which was not correct in hindsight). That wasn't my intent and I assure you, I am working on it. I seem to be having a lot of "foot in mouth moments." Sigh. I hope you all know that I really do mean well.
However, the information I gained from it was very useful and new to me, so I am including it here. In the words of the lovely Mrs. Blondies, "Dr. Hilgers uses a different scale (ng/dL) than what you often see in other labs (pg/mL) so the number from Dr. Hilgers are going to look like 1/10 of the numbers of what other labs will say. So estrogen that is 259 pg/mL from another lab is actually 25.9 ng/dL on the scale used by Dr. Hilgers. The progesterone scales seems to be the same across labs (ng/mL)"
