Test results, should I take clomid?

What are the exact words I should use on the doctor tomorrow?
"can I get a full blood panel?"
"can you check my thyroid t3 and t4 levels?"

Something like that? Going to see him tomorrow

You want a FULL male hormone panel including FREE T3 & FREE T4. Specify FREE T3 & T4 as most only include TOTAL T3 & T4. And don't ask him to check, tell him what you want, he works for you.
 
Getting thyroid test done they taking blood
Going to take clomid for 4 weeks and see what happens
When I see the doctor next month we will review the thyroid levels and clomid results
Looks like the beginning of a long journey...

Dude... please tell me I misunderstand you. He's not running only thyroid and giving you clomid correct? Tell me he's running the full hormone panel.
 
what i meant was they didn't take the levels the first time we spoke about clomid they only did a regular blood test. prior to that they did the test with the results in the original post. those were before i came here for advice.

last week i saw him and got a prescription for clomid and on that day i asked him to measure the thyroid for total and free t3 and t4 and he said ok and they took the blood on the spot. i just won't speak to him until next month, although i guess i could call him. or i could have him mail me the results and post them on here.

i'm on day 5 of 25mg of clomid a day, starting to have acne on my neck and face.

i think i just asked for thyroid and forgot to ask for a full panel. i can do that next time i see him though.

Why do you ask for advice if you aren't going to follow it? Starting Clomid without knowing what your issues are can do more harm than good.

Well I asked for the total and free t3 and t4, and honestly don't remember if I aske for a full panel or not. If not I'll get the hormone panel in 3 weeks.

So far I feel more energy and better erections on 25mg clomid and am gettin acne.
 
Also, what are the normal ranges on t3 and t4?
How will I know if I am low or normal when I get the bloodwork back?
 
So far in 3 weeks 25mg of clomid has given me pimples and hot flashes. I also lost about 15lbs which seems to be mostly around my gut. Feels good but I did cry a few times.

Going to go over my last blood test next week, get another blood test with full hormone panel to see where I am at, and hopefully switch to androgel. I don't really like the emotional part of clomid or hot flashes
