Sex hormone binding globulin - SHBG
In seconds
The average time range for blood to clot is about 10 to 14 seconds. A number
higher than that range means it takes blood longer than usual to clot. A
number lower than that range means blood clots more quickly than normal
(mayoclinic, 2015a).
As INR
This ratio - which allows for easier comparisons of test results from different
laboratories - is used if you take blood-thinning medications (mayoclinic,
2015a).
