160mg. Test with 120mg. Nandralone

I read in another thread,
Nandrolone will show up on the TOTAL testosterone measurement (which is universally elevated for T + nandrolone), but will not show on the free testosterone measurement (aside from some possible indirect influence by way of SHBG as Nelson stated).

Going for lab work in 6 weeks and don't want my Total T elevated. My Dr. will most likely lower my dose if my t is elevated. At this dosage, any idea what percentage the T be elevated?
Would stopping the Nandralone 1 week prior give me a more accurate reading on the Total T?
 
Is the nandrolone self prescribed and what benefits are you hoping to attain from it? No stopping the nandrolone a week before will not help as the decanoate ester is even longer acting than the cypionate/enanthate esters. Stopping 3-4 weeks before bloods would more than likely be okay. Decas metabolites are also know for showing up on blood work up to 12 months after stopping as its metabolites have been known to lurk in adipose tissue albeit in trace amounts. If your blood work is in 6 weeks I would stop the nandrolone now.

Would that low of a dose elevate the total T more than 25% ?
TRT thru dr.
Nandralone, Self prescribed for nagging joint pain.
Also been doing this for 4 weeks now, when would I start to see improvement with joint pain?
Thanks for the help.
 
Contrary to what all the experts on here say, Deca will not not significantly elevate your t levels. At 200 mg of T and 180 mg of Deca per week my T levels never exceeded 1250. My T level at just 200 mg per week were about 1100. Relax.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
