Understanding Testosterone Test Results: pg/ml to ng/dl Conversion

Question
Please, could you help me to convert pg/ml into ng/dl? I am trying to determine what the results of my testosterone test mean.

Thanks.

Answer
Hi Anne,
Sorry for the delay in responding - I've been away for a couple of days and have only just got round to checking my emails.
The figures do not convert easily as pg to ng is different by 10 to the power of 3 (1000), whilst ml to dl is different by 10 to the power of 2 (100). As such you have to work to the lowest common number - in this case, multiply pg/ml by 100 to convert to ng/dl. The ml will now be in dl, whereas what was pg will now be to the nearest 0.1ng.
I hope that makes sense - if you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact me again.
Best wishes,
Sam
