HRT Conversion¶

Warning

Consult with your doctor about the accuracy of this tool before using it. Ensure that you verified that the outputs are in fact correct before using.

This feature is designed to convert different serum measurements of Estradiol, Progesterone, Testosterone and Prolactin. Now, the measurements used may be confusing, and here is an breakdown of the different measurements and their name meaning

Unit of Measurement	Name Meaning	Reference Link
pmol/L	Picomoles Per Liter	https://www.nyp.org/healthlibrary/definitions/picomoles-per-liter-pmoll
pg/mL	Picograms Per Milliliter	https://www.nyp.org/healthlibrary/definitions/picograms-per-milliliter-pgml
nmol/L	Nanomoles Per Liter	https://www.nyp.org/healthlibrary/definitions/nanomoles-per-liter-nmoll
ng/dL	Nanograms per deciliter	https://www.nyp.org/healthlibrary/definitions/nanograms-per-deciliter-ngdl
mIU/L	Milli-international Units Per Liter	https://www.nyp.org/healthlibrary/definitions/milli-international-units-per-liter-miul

Now we know what these measurements means, we can start breaking down how to use the commmand. The command are divided into these subcommands:

/hrt-convert estradiol
/hrt-convert testosterone
/hrt-convert progesterone
/hrt-convert prolactin

These commands will always have these two inputs:

amount - A number form of the amount of suggested unit to convert to
unit - The unit to convert to.

For the input unit, there are two special cases:

If the command used is /hrt-convert estradiol, then the only units that will be accepted are pmol/L and pg/mL
For the command /hrt-convert progesterone, the unit ng/dL is internally converted to ng/mL. I’m actually unsure of why, but if you think this is a mistake, please let me know.

And here is an example of how the output looks like.
