TRT > 2 yrs
Started at 100mg EW & .5mg Anastrozole AI next day. Reduced to 80mg after Total serum T was 1,200 for too long and hematocrit was high too often. :)
56 yrs, back to lifting 4 yrs.

I totaled these because I don't know if this is weak or not. Are the up & down levels okay?
 
What are the reference ranges? I would compare against that.
Still so much controversy over ref. ranges... I was wondering what other body builders were seeing. It'shard to say, but:

Age # men TT dev. free dev. SHGB dev.
25-34 45 617 170 12.3 2.8 35.5 8.8
35-44 22 668 212 10.3 1.2 40.1 7.9
45-54 23 606 213 9.1 2.2 44.6 8.2
55-64 43 562 195 8.3 2.1 45.5 8.8
65-74 47 524 197 6.9 2.3 48.7 14.2
75-84 48 471 169 6.0 2.3 51.0 22.7
85-100 21 376 134 5.4 2.3 65.9 22.8

(can't format chart, sorry)
55-64 yrs 43 men 562 TT 195 deviation 8.3 free T 2.1 deviation 45.5 SHBG 8.8 deviation
So, by calculation;
free T 9.84 ng/dL = 1.75 %
bio-available 231 ng/dL = 41.1 %

Thanks for your help IMT.

My E2 recently; 24.6 , 31 , 27 , 13.1 , 22.6 , 10 , 31.6 , 28.2
Average = 23.5 recently over 8 labs about 3 months apart.

(FWIW: I wish you all the success in your biz. Restoring T is healing, not a damn crime)
