Physiological Reference Ranges

The ranges below represent standard adult physiological values. Your laboratory's printed reference range always takes precedence.

Adults (general)

0 – 35 UI/mL

Adult females

0 – 35 UI/mL

Adult males

0 – 35 UI/mL

Common alternative units:
kUI/L(×1 UI/mL)

What does a low result mean?

A value below 35 UI/mL is the expected, reassuring benchmark.

What does a high result mean?

A modest increase is very frequent and benign during menstruation, ovulation, endometriosis, or benign ovarian cysts.

Questions ready for your doctor

Bring these questions to your next consultation to discuss with your healthcare practitioner:

  • Could cycle timing, ovulation, or menses account for this result?
  • Would a routine pelvic ultrasound provide helpful anatomical reassurance?
  • Should this be rechecked outside of menstrual bleeding?
