A week on Test Cyp and HCG- want to get off

[charliebucket]

I was contemplating stopping a few weeks ago when I posted. I just wanted to be off everything, and didn't want to wait 3 weeks to start PCT. So I stopped

do you have hypogonadism?

test - not on TRT is in the 400's
within normal but below optimal
Looking to get that number in the 500's - DHEA has been a big help

Did you have any anxiousness with Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) mixed in with T ?
Although you were only on for a week and at low doses....
doubt this was a problem for you.

Well, I applaud you for trying to get yourself going. Problem is your LH is at a real decent level...the range goes up to 8 IU/L.
You're more than half way there.
I don't see your FSH level posted though.

 

[charliebucket]

I do not know my FSH. Looked over my labs and there are quite a few things they didn't test for, but FSH isn't listed anywhere.
Is their something synonymous with FSH ?

 

[Alpin]

Was this an Endo or G.P. that ran these tests ?
never tested FSH ?
I assume they either don't care or are incompetent to check the functioning of your primary fertility hormone.

Just a heads up....
500's is nothing special....
it's approx. the level of a 55 year old...
not terrible...but not the greatest.

yeah I know my test levels are not great. I'm going to give it 4-6 weeks test/hcg/clomid free and see what i can do naturally. If I'm still in the 400's I'll consider TRT
I went to an wellness/ageless doc specializing in TRT. Not and endo or gen. They are usually not Harvard grads

Yeah...careful of those ones bro...
I've seen them put guys on TRT with 600 ng/dl
