    Have been lurking for a month or two - curious about TRT

    And here is some more updated labs… Testosterone came back at 256 this time and my estrogen at a whopping 5.

    I wonder if they have the option to do just HCG there. Would that be a temporary thing or something that would be continuous?

    Have been lurking for a month or two - curious about TRT

    Got another blood draw at a TRT clinic today which will include estrogen. The results will be in on Monday. My PCP rejected referring me to an endocrinologist after my last blood draw as everything is “within normal range.” Monday will be decision time. Do I not go on TRT and just remain low...

    I know it can be a little lower on a cut which is why I do refeed days as well and to protect my metabolism. I’m just unsure if a 500-calorie deficit could significantly impact levels enough to where I qualify for TRT at the age of 28. Also, wouldn’t explain the low levels throughout my teens...

    So basically, I will eventually be on TRT at a younger age when it starts to get even lower than it already is lol

    My doctor probably not, I still qualify for a TRT clinic though. I am currently eating 1800 calories a day on a cut. Breakfast is an egg sandwich, lunch is chicken breast, brown rice, and any veggie, and dinner I pack a meat sandwich to work with a yogurt and cheese. That is a daily thing with...

    I’m curious about this too. Doc said my labs were normal but we will see what the other labs aude mentioned to get done will say.

    Ah, makes sense. I don’t mind paying the $270, if that is the route that is decided. I can handle injections, but I think having someone do it for me for a while and getting me dialed in would be worth the cost until I would be ready to do it myself at a later time.

    Is it high because it’s not self-injections and you are doing it with them inside the clinic?

    Just saw the doctor. Said I was within normal range lol even though that range includes 80-year-old T levels. Anyways, he is ordering more blood work and is giving me a referral to an endocrinologist. The labs he did have pulled up for me showed my free T level at 64. is that bad? That lab work...

    Have been lurking for a month or two - curious about TRT

    I asked my doc for a lab order, and these are what I received. There is no estro or prolactin or testosterone or free testosterone. Is there a specific type of blood work I need to request? I go in today I could ask for it. When I talked to the doc at the clinic I asked if he could do bloods to...

    Have been lurking for a month or two - curious about TRT

    If HCG is used, does it have to be lifelong? Would that be able to recover me to the T levels I had before jumping on? I have also had low testosterone levels in my teenage years and throughout my 20s. I could be unaware to how it has affected my well being because it’s all I have known. Could...

    I do and I got what I believe to be comprehensive labs done two days ago. Waiting for the website to work again so I can put the results here. Was just a bunch of listed things I’ve never even heard of before lol. I also shopped around a little bit. I called this one clinic and they said that I...

    I will post the testosterone lab I had done. Just says testosterone on it. Is that something you have to ask for? I presumed a TRT clinic would preform blood work for anything related to testosterone. The other blood work I can’t get right now as the website is having issues. Personally, I...

    Maybe I can bring up Cialis at the appointment as well. Good idea on the apple watch, I was thinking of getting one at some point anyways. I can’t attach the screenshot of my testosterone lab result, but all it says is: Testosterone 368 ng/dl reference range 264-916
