What is Free Androgen Index Test
The Free Androgen Index (FAI) test is a blood test that measures the amount of free testosterone and other androgens in the bloodstream. It is used to evaluate the level of androgens in the body, especially in cases of suspected hormonal imbalances such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) or hirsutism. The test is performed by measuring the total testosterone and sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) levels in the blood and calculating the ratio of testosterone to SHBG. The result is expressed as a percentage or a ratio, with higher values indicating higher levels of free testosterone.
