I've got a call in with my endo, but I figured I'd pick some brains here as well.
About a month into TRT (100mg Test Enanthate per week), I started itching. No rash. No specific location. Just general itching. It'll be my earlobe one moment, my butt cheek the next. When it's bad, it's hard to sleep and I rely on knocking myself out with Benadryl.
The thing is, I went in for labs last week and my kidneys/liver look fine.
eGFR NON-AFR. AMERICAN
84 mL/min/1.73m2
BILIRUBIN, TOTAL
0.6 mg/dL
BILIRUBIN, DIRECT
0.1 mg/dL
BILIRUBIN, INDIRECT
0.5 mg/dL
ALT
31 U/L
HEMATOCRIT
43.7%
HEMOGLOBIN
14.5 g/dL
Is there anything else we should be testing? These numbers look pretty normal to me. I suppose it's possible I'm allergic to the sesame oil in the enanthate, but I've never had a problem with sesame seeds and I've eaten plenty.
It's also possible this has nothing to do with the TRT.
Thanks, guys.
