The relationship of free fatty acids with the binding of oestradiol to SHBG and to albumin in women.

Free fatty acid concentration, sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) concentration, % free oestradiol and % SHBG-bound oestradiol were measured in fasting and non-fasting serum samples from 48 women.
