More Blood Work

[TryinToGetStrong]

I went and got more blood work done on my own to compare to my Dr.'s ranges, and get my E2.

Dr.'s #'s
1/23/12 Prolactin 10 2.5/17
1/23/12 Total test 190

2/09/12 FrTestn 7.25 4.25-30.37
2/09/12 FSH 2.52
2/09/12 LH 1.99
2/09/12 Total test 250

Now most recently, yesterday.

4/27/12
Testosterone 332 the range is 348-1197
LH 4.4 the range is 1.7-8.6
FSH 2.6 the range is 1.5-12.4
Estradiol 28.6 the range is 7.6-42.6

Now I have a couple questions

1. Why does my test seem to keep going up it is now over 140 higher than it was 3 months ago?

2. Whats the difference between free test and total test?

3. Are all of my levels in the normal range except total test?

4. Is my total test being low why I feel like shit when I work out, have low sex drive, and notice no gains?

Did you run a cycle?

Seems that your LH is really working properly telling your leydig cells more T. And seems that your leydig cells are starting to respond to the request. I'd give it a little longer and see what happens.

Thanks for the reply bud, people seem scarce around testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) forum lately.

The last cycle I ran was last summer and ended around late September.

You think it's just taking my body a while to recover?

I recently got my wife pregnant so the testis must be working, but I am getting a sperm count done tomorrow just to be sure, before I follow through with any kind of restart or cycle.

So all of my levels besides total test are good right?

 

[rowdybrad]

maybe try a clomid restart. I did 100mg for 10 days per my doc.

 

[Frustrated1]

Yea everything I see looks good. I just think that your body is just now getting restarted. And as rowdybrad says a little clomid would probably be a good idea, but that's not really my expertise.

Alright, thanks frustrated.
