My test results

[silverstate]

So i have been an lifting since i was about 20 i am currently 48 and in what i think to be great shape 5'7'' 200# for the past 2 months i have felt moody/tired etc so i had my blood drawn. 1st time ever to check my test levels. Holy crap my test came back at 36.. yes 36 should be 250-1000 my question is has anyone ever heard of a test this low?

 

[IMT staff]

yes but only one other test I have seen.

 

[riprockwell]

That is the lowest I have seen. I had a buddy whose test level came back at 55. You definitely need to get some more tests done and consider getting with IMT and get on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT). You will feel like a million bucks compared to where you are right now.

 

[Mr P]

this ^^^ call IMT

Ok so my doc has me on test 100mg to start per week plus B12 plus anastrozole 1 pill per week. oh man she gave me a shot in the office 100mg of test 1 hour later i am a new man.

36 ng is exceptionally low - Have you ever had a bad head injury ? You might want to have your pituary gland checked out to see if its functional , guys coming back from the war with head injuries are showing these kinds of numbers ...the doc really should have done these tests before starting you on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) . ~Bo

 

[silverstate]

Never a head injury but i am scheduled to rule out a tumor and check pit. gland from what doc is saying a tumor can develope on block the Pit gland. I will post with results

Good luck - if its not your pituary gland maybe a HPTA restart with Clomid therapy might be considered , it helped me but in the end I ended up on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) anyway , which I"ve done well on..... ~Bo

I'm guessing that you're getting a placebo affect. Or maybe an adrenalin rush. I've never heard of someone feeling the results in 1 hour. I could be wrong though. At least it sounds as though your doc knows more about HRT than most. Anyone who can get anastrozole prescribed on day 1 is pretty lucky.

Well said

Definitely placebo. But hey, nothing wrong with that! Feeling good is feeling good!

 

[NateDEEzy]

Lol definitely placebo? Okay let's not discourage the guy.. I'd be willing to say there's a definite possibility it wasn't placebo, just because some of the commentors didn't have the same result/effect, doesn't mean it's not possible.

It is far more likely that having his pretty young doctor ask him to drop his pants to give him a shot in the ass is what made him feel like a new man.

I would have gotten one more lab test done to confirm the first before jumping onto testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) (perhaps your doctor did). Remember that labs can, and do Fu*k up every once in a while (or even if they don't make a mistake, sometimes results just don't come out correct) and that result is way low and thus suspicious. That being said, since you had all the symptoms of low T, you probably did.

I had a subdural hematoma to my occipital lobe when I was 18. My test levels stay
at 318 and have remained that low naturally for 10 years , this was low enough to get my doc on the phone with labs quick. He even side stepped the creams and patches and went right foe the injections. 36..??? That's jaw dropping.

Ok so sorry it has been a while "wow you guys know your stuff on here. Ok as a result of my really low test results 36 to be exact the doctor ordered a few more test. it also appears that i have an extremely high Iron count 1000 to be exact. several things can cause this one being herditary. may have to give blood once a week. Dr. sent me in to have my LH check which came back not very good. LH communicates to the pituatary to signal to the testies to make testosterone. so now i am heading to get an MRI to have my head checked for a Tumor. so we will see in most causes it is not cancerous.

ok my current dosage is 200 mg per week 1 armidex pill per week split in half. i can tell you my sexual desire is through the roof. what little fat i had on my body is diff coming off. again i would consider myself a gym rat so my strength gains are incredible as well as duration in the gym.

Just had blood drawn again this week to check test levels. i will keep you all in the loop.

No offence...but it is not possible with test cypionate...the ester does not release right away.....now if he had said sustanon or prop....I could believe that.....
