Blood quality and supplements that keep it in line

Maybe it will catch on as a spa treatment. Seems like just about everything else is these days. I do remember that for a long time it was a cure all.

Sounds like a good business opportunity.. We already have trt clinics,, just néed phlebotomy clinics, offering services for general health and well being

Interesting, that's not among the standard FDA questions. The one most people have to lie about is "have you ever used needles to inject anything (drugs, steroids) not prescribed by your doctor?"

Ok well perhaps that's how it read and I was mistaken. I just remember that I had to make a decision to lie about a question or two or be disqualified then come to find out my iron levels is what disqualified me.

The question you're probably thinking of is regarding an injection, which includes steroids. It's tricky if you don't pay attention as one you do say yes to (injections), while non-prescribed you say no to.

Getting injections is not a deferral; admitting to using drugs not prescribed by a doctor is. Whether or not you choose to be honest or not is entirely up to you as that's an ethical question.

Unfortunately, you may never be able to donate again. Once you are prescribed a therapeutic phlebotomy, you are deferred for life - which is silly since they should want guys with tons of RBC's, but the FDA often doesn't make sense.

Side note to this topic:

I'm going in to donate blood tomorrow.. Will be doing so around my normal work out time ,, late afternoon.
I currently take 3 Dbol pills a day, morning, lunch, and an hour pre workout.. Should I just not take my third pill tomorrow,, or maybe just take two in am.

Just asking cause of the quick acting short half life of Dbol,at 5 hours.

It's really a matter of blood pressure. If your bp spikes beyond 100mm/hg diastolic, I'd hold off.
