[QUOTE="Antanas Dzukas, post: 16411, member: 959"] Hi, I am on SubQ 100mg testosterone per week. After 8 weeks i wanted to see where is my testosterone levels. On Day 3(48 hours after injection) i checked at closest lab to my place - "lab A" and was surprised that total T is only 19.5. I expected to see peak of T, which should be probably more then 19. Then on Day 5, i checked at big university "lab b" and was surprised again that Total T is now high - 25. I couldn't understand which lab is correct, so i checked at third different "lab C". Result was 15.2 If you look lab a and lab c, then you see that Total T is going from 19.5-15, which could be normal. In this case i should probably add more testosterone or switch from 1x shot per week to 2x shots to have more stable blood level. If you look at lab b only(day 5) and result 25, then you don't need any more testosterone. I know that sometimes lab do mistakes and etc, but the problem i don't feel any improvements on T shots and considering to increase T or switch to T-gel, but don't want because of "lab b" result. At the moment i switched to 40mg 2x per week schedule just to have more stable results. I am bit confused and would be interesting to hear others opinions? Day 1, injection Day 2, Day 3 (lab A) Total T 19.5 nmol/l, range 5.5-27 Day 4 Day 5 (lab B) Total T 25.07 nmol/l, range 5.6-30 SHBG 28.1 nmol/l, range 10-57 FSH <0.1 U/l 0.95-11.95 Day 6 (lab C) Total T 15.2 nmol/l, range 5.2 - 25 Day 7 [/QUOTE]
