Blood testing error?

[Jaxxin]

I've been on 400mg a week for the last 8 weeks. Script and it's from a compounded pharmacy so it should be gtg.

Got my blood tested Friday which would be 3 days after a 1 ml injection and right before my next injection.

Testosterone serum: 233 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! what? (348-1197) LOW
LH 2.0 (1.7-8.6)
FSH 11.3 (1.5-12.4)
Estradiol 46.3 (7.6-42.6) HIGH

TSH 1.990 (.450-4.500)
T4 Free 1.51 (0.82-1.77)
T3 Free 3.6 (2.0-4.4)


Anything else look weird? I thought my thyroid was jacked but it seems ok? Of course how could I trust any of these numbers....my T can't be that low can it?

Weekly protocol
400mg Test Cyp (2 shots)
1000iu Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) (2 shots)
.5 mg anastrazole 3x per week

It appears if though your estrogen is high and you are converting a lot of testosterone to estrogen. This could be the reason why your ratios are out of balance.

Damn dude that sucks how's the gear have you used them before know anybody else who has used them just curious if you got some bunk gear

 

[Jaxxin]

I don't think that's it. It's prescription testosterone from an actual pharmacy.

Going to get a re test. I think LabCorp fucked up.

Well if its prescription grade I would say its not bunk however your E is high could b causing an issue also how many cycles have you ran it's possible your receptors need to be cleared.

Most of the time, the typical testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) doses work just fine without much complication. Those numbers look strange to me as well. I would typically be at 900-1000 3 days out from my last pin at half your test dosage - 100mg 2x per week and 500iu Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) 2x per week.

I would be tempted to run the labs again just to make sure it's not an error. There are some other levels that can effect total test, e.g. a high SHBG level would lower your total test level (I'm not sure this could explain what you are seeing). Hopefully someone with a bit more knowledge will chime in with some suggestions.

How do you FEEL?

You said you think it may be an error at the lab... does that mean you're not feeling that bad?

How do you FEEL?

This is great question. It takes a while to feel better after starting TRT. I know it took several weeks for me. It's been 8 weeks for you so hopefully you are feeling some improvement.

Yeah I'm not feeling that bad. I seem to have highs and lows throughout the week even though I'm injecting 2x per week. Overall though, I gained 15 lbs, libido is up most days, I can lift like a madman in the gym and all my lifts have gone up, wood in the mornings so I think they just botched the test.

Edit: during my lows I don't feel bad at all and still much better than before testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), I just don't have that crazy good energy feel that I have on the other days.
