Hi all -
I know testosterone raises hematocrit (and doctors like Crisler have said it levels off after starting TRT), but what most influences the degree to which it rises?
For example:
- Injections vs. non-injections
- Injection frequency
- Dose
How much do these factors matter or is just...
Before TRT I only have TT and FT results. I just recently had my E2 (sensitive) and SHBG checked as well.

Nice study showing that consumption of cooked meat really increases creatinine during a 24h period. For those getting blood work done that includes creatinine might be a good idea to stay away from cooked meat 24h prior blood being drawn.

Thoughts on my thyroid labs? Doc said they're fine but I can try 12.5mg iodine per week to see if I notice any difference (have had low body temp, tired, hard to lose weight etc. But could be due to other reasons I guess). I think 12.5mg per week is pretty low so have been having it every 2...
All, sorry for the long post and appreciate all the advise but here is my story. I am a 40 yr old male. Work has been stressful the last few years with long hours, bad food, lots of travel and shitty work. About 4 years ago, I noticed that I was having issues maintaining erections, then I...
Hi all,
First time poster. I'm hoping to get some thoughts on my recent blood tests asap as I have an appointment with my doc tomorrow morning so want to be informed and prepared. Blood test results are attached in photos.
I've been on trt 6 weeks, had the bloods done on Monday before HCG, T...
I think I have crashed my estrogen. I stopped trt about 10 days ago due to bad side-effects from high testoterone and high estrogen. I also had high hematocrit.
I took some extra anastrazole (listed below) after I stopped trt to lower my estrogen. I think I overdid it. I feel like death! I...
Hey guys,
I've been on TRT and feel like its really made some changes in my life. Well, my wife (fit 39 yrs) noticing symptoms of her own is interested in looking into HRT/Thyroid for herself. She got a blood test and will be going in for her first visit. After looking at her results I am...

Brief history - found a tumor in my pituitary gland, and was prescribed HRT almost 12 months ago, namely HGH and TRT. I've also had several spinal surgeries and some nagging pains, so decided to try out a therapeutic Nandrolone Decanoate (Deca) dose recently.
My protocol for the past 6 months...
Just got my lab results. Paid for a little extra after reading a bunch on this forum (thank you all for that). I really don't know enough to decipher this stuff. I don't know what to be concerned about or what it all means... but I know how I feel & it's not great after my testosterone is back...
Hi and thanks for looking. I'd really appreciate any help I can get here, as unfortunately, I don't have a trusted doctor here (I'm in a 3rd world country). I've put the results outside of normal range in red for easy reference, though some of the values are different to the TRT Targets from...
Hey guys
Firstly please note: I'm having this blood work done in Thailand so the unit of measurement might be different than in the states. And I did not have access to a "sensitive" e2 test. Only regular :). I do not have access to any type of men's health clinic here in Thailand, but I have...
Anything stand out to you guys in this bloodwork? The one from August 2013 was ordered by my primary physician. The rest were done by my endocrinologist. I'm going to my urologist next week to see where to go from here.
:cool:
