17-Hydroxyprogesterone Level - Has Anyone Here Actually Had Theirs Measured?

[bennettjc]

I'm going for my first blood testing since starting injectable testosterone. I am also taking HCG, at a low dose (the lowest?) 250iu twice a week.

I'm going to get a 17-Hydroxyprogesterone level given some of the work (posted in this forum) as it possibly being a reasonable gauge of intratesticular testosterone. I having been obsessing a bit on HCG dosage on TRT for the reasons other than fertility.

If anyone has had the test please share your thoughts, results, theories, etc.

Thanks,
Bennett

One person here but he used the wrong hCG dose:

Low 17-OH Progesterone a concern? - Excel Male TRT Forum

I was surprised 17-OH Progesterone was low <10 on LabCorp scale 27-199 ng/dl considering along with TRT I'was on HCG 125Iu daily 50mg Pregnelonone and 25mg of Hydrocotisone I actually thought because I'm on Hydrocortisone Progesterone would be high(er) Why would that be low?
