Received my post cycle blood work results. Had some questions

[megatron_ed]

Good morning All:

Received my bloodwork. Here are some facts:

1. Finished my 500mg test-e cycle in late September. Added DBol for four weeks towards the end, but ended two weeks before test ended.

2. post cycle therapy (pct) of clomid/nolva ended mid December.

3. Did use HCG

4. 36yo, 6', currently 212lbs (down from 224 on cycle, but mostly by design), probably 17% BF.


Just got my results yesterday from a test on Thursday.

Most things seem fine. Here are some highlights.

RBW (Red bloos cell distribution width) - 14.9, which is on the high range of 11.7-15.0

Glucose - 96; on high end of range of 65-99

Total Cholesterol - 172

HDL - 44

LDL - 111 Registered as high

Testosterone, Serum - 674 pretty much in the middle

Estradiol - 27.9 pretty much in the middle

Now my questions:

1. Glucose has me a little worried. Could some of this been caused by my cycle? Anything I can do?

2. For my LDL - I know it was my cycle. Any tips?

I plan to start another cycle in late March/early April, so I want to make sure I am g2g.

Thanks

Get back to a regular diet and the glucose should go back to normal.

I have never had high LDL so I am unsure on that one.
I would wait till April and have your blood done again to make sure your ok.

Don't worry so much about your LDL as much as your ratio. Your HDL is above 40, which is good for a male. My thinking if that your ratio is good since your total is only 172. It should show you on your lab printout about the VLDL (I think it says something like that for ratio). If it's less than 5.0, you're ok. People worry too much about total cholesterol and high LDL, when in fact the ratio is what's important. If you have a super high HDL, it will compensate for a higher LDL. Anyway, not much you can do when you're on cycle. Using AI's, gear, etc. will generally make your cholesterol numbers shit. All in all, your numbers look decent so I wouldn't worry. The glucose I would keep an eye on. I never had my glucose elevate from using gear but that's just me. I'm not aware of gear causing it to go up. Anyway, best of luck.

Labs look fine just clean up your diet to nudge down that LDL.
