200ml cyp weekly..been doing it for 3 years..6 months ago my levels were in the 1300 range...this past test they dropped to 927...curious as to why such a dramatic decrease...
 
Test at the same time relative to your last injection?

What did E2 come in at?

Change brands?

Changes in body fat ***8453;?

Recently start a new vial?

Tested at the same lab? Same assay?
 
doc refuses to test for E2 or anything else...hes very basic with TRT...previous visit was 6 months so cant recall how close to injection earlier time was...no BF change....same brand....it was a different lab though...

The lab can make a difference, I've noticed big swings using my doctors office versus LabCorp, must be in the assay and mega mentioned... I am not sure how they doc orders it.

It's probably the injection timing, if you can't remember how you had it done (how far your pin was from labs) then you likely didn't do it within the exact thing time frame. Peak is 36-48 hours post injection then everyday thereafter it decreases so just a day or two in timing between labs will make it different.

Surprised he's so basic if he's willing to let you have a total T of 1300, Christ my doc has a stroke at a TT of 900 because she thinks anything above is unhealthy... this is why I left her last week after our argument.

You need to check your E2. Read the FAQs thread in my signature for info on running private blood work

I can tell you mine can be in the 400's if taken too late and in the 1100's if to early. I mean 2 days difference even.

So to illustrate. I Inject Mon/Thurs. If I inject Mon morning and go in Friday morning and skip the Thursday injection till after my draw on Friday, I can be 400. If I inject Mon evening and go in Thursday morning before my injection I could be 1100.

You need to be very accurate on the timing of the draw.
 
yea, my dr has always been a bit stiff on branching out...wont test for E2...gets mad if i bring up concepts ive seen here (hcg,etc.)i guess the reason i stick around is ive never had an issue with refills or questioing my sometimes high levels....but id sure like to expand and get a doc more deeply involved and open to other ideas

you might want to remind him that he works for you. if it wasn't for patients/customers needing his services then he would not have a job.
