Hey Guys,

This is my first time posting here are my stats:

25 Years old 6’3 240lbs I have been lifting natural for 4 years and did my first aas cycle 7 months ago.

I ran 15 weeks of test prop 100mg every other day and then for the last 3 weeks I ran Test Enth 500mg a week. I also ran Aromasin 12.5-25mg daily with 50mg of Proviron. I was on for a total of 18 weeks for my first cycle.

My PCT was Clomid 50mg daily, nolva 40mg daily and Aromasin daily 12.5mg for 7 weeks.

I got my blood test taken a week ago and got the results today. I'm a little concerned and was hoping anyone could help me decipher what it means.

I'm going to post what was indicated "out of range" on my blood test results.

FREE testosterone: 21.8 0.5--8.1 pmol/L

RBC: 5.33 3.80--4.80 tera/L

HEMOGLOBIN: 157 120--150 g/L

HEMATOCRIT: 0.46 0.35--0.43

AST: 128

ALT: 120

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
 
AST count is not an accurate measure of a problem with your liver. A lot of Dr's will try to say that it is. AST rises as a result of muscle damage, i.e working out or myocardial infarction (heart attack). I know this from research.

ALT counts being higher is more of a sign of liver damage. The liver is the body's most resilient organ though and can repair its self hundreds of times over. An ALT count of 120 isn't crazy high but there has to be a reason why it is higher than it should be. ALT counts can be high if you did some drinking recently, taken any orals, tylenol, or certain herbs. Wait like 2-3 more weeks and go back and get tested. This time try not working out 5 days prior.
 
Thanks for the response, I take Nyquil pills that contain acetaminophen in them, so a few nighs a week I'll be consuming 1.5 to 2 grams of acetaminophen in one sitting. I take these to help me sleep. Could that be enough to cause these high readings?

Also does my free test levels seems really low for a 25 year old?

thanks again reps.
 
Well according to the info you've given me, .5 would be the low end so .4, .3, .2, etc would be bad. 8 is the high end so 9,10,11,12, etc would be the high end. You said your is 21 so that would be way on the high end.

Just relax. Don't freak out about shit.
 
Take Sominex for sleep instead of Nyquil. Sominex is basically benedryl and has no acetaminophen. It works well. Some people might get a little amped from it, but it's worth a try. It knocks me out and I still get good sleep.
 
Maybe I missed it ..
How long were you off cycle befroe blood work ?
Did you fast ?
The liver is one tough motherfucker..so relax..
As indicated above..aceta. is harsh..FDA has been warning people about long term use of lortab and shit due to liver/kidney..
No alcohol..a week or so before..
And your values ain t that bad.
Benadryl rev s me up....sex..even with my hand..helps me doze off.
 
Thanks for your help guys, so I found out the shitty news, my test had me as a female and I'm a dude. So the ref ranges for test are way off.

My real ref ranges should be 26-95 pmol/L and I'm 21.8 pmol/L

Im under the lowest of the low for free test. I can't believe either because it's been over 3 months since I pinned, I ran a super aggressive post cycle therapy (pct) and I used HCG for almost the whole time. I'm at a complete loss, I don't know what to do.
 
OK your 25 and your test is 21 out of 28, that is low..but not the end of the world. I m at 110 out of 220 total test I believe.....but I m half dead...45 yr old fukker.
What are your plans ? Ask the doc for ideas..this was your only cycle ?
I know what i d do...another cycle..
But I dont want more kids and pray for sterilty every time I blow a load..

You know there are OTC sleeping pills if for some reason melatonin doesn't work for you. Those still put a stress on the liver, but you don't need to be taking Niquil as a sleep aid!!

You also don't mention, is this test 8 weeks (7 weeks post cycle therapy (pct) + 1 week 'rest') out from your cycle??? The body can take months to stabilize, but that Niquil is going to be messing with your liver values some. Regular sleep times will greatly aid in falling asleep, I have issues with that too. Kill the TV etc an hour before bed, and so on.
 
Nyquil will get you to sleep but it will not allow you to hit REM state.
it hurts the liver and the sleep you get is not restful.

dude you need total test levels done - not just free test. free test is test you have not absorbed. check your actual test level (range is 300-800). Since your free test is low, sounds like you are not producing which is either your nuts or LH/FSH. Clomid should help. T'll get your FSH,LH up and tell yuour nuts to produce test. If it doesn't work, ur nuts are broken. do post cycle therapy (pct) with clomid again for 20-30 days. the experts need to weigh in here.

Relax for one. I personally believe people need to relax when it comes to their blood panels. So you have low test, facts are your test begins to decline as you get older. Thats actually begins in you early 20's. Run a post cycle therapy (pct) again if you are that concerned. Otherwise try HCG, then clomid and nolva again. I can almost guarantee you though a DR will not put you on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) so I would get that thought out of your head.

Do you know what you panels were prior to your first cycle anyway?
