Comparing two results

A change under about 26.3% may be nothing at all

FSH varies within the same healthy person from day to day — for this value, by about 9.5%. So two results can differ without anything having changed. Below roughly 26.3%, a difference is as likely to be ordinary variation as anything else.

This figure is a lower bound, deliberately. The full calculation also includes the variation of the specific machine that ran your sample, which belongs to your laboratory and differs between them. Leaving it out makes the threshold smaller, so this flags changes that may turn out to be nothing — rather than missing ones that matter.

Biological variation figure from the EFLM BVD meta-analysis. Calculated as 2.77 × CVI.
