I just got my test results back for my Pregnenolone from Labcorp. The level was less than 16 ng/dl, the range is 33-248.
My doctor says its a bit low !!!!
Thoughts on a starting mg? level to shoot for mid 100's?
Thanks in advance!
Good Morning Vince,
I am a low SHBG guy being treated by Dr. Saya. And as I understand it your free T will tend to be over range and total within range. I'll use mine as an example. my total is around 983 but my free is 33.6 way above range (3.4%) This is the ration I was speaking about. It...

My wife just got back her Testosterone test.
she tested the morning before she applied the cream. she is currently on 4 clicks which it says 4mg per Gram and 4 clicks is 1 gram.
My question is how do you calculate the ratio of test to free test?
Wouldn't this give me an Idea what her SHBG is...

I will ask her to request those as she has not had been tested.
Her T3 just got updated and it has fallen out of the range, 73 on a scale of 80-200....
My wife has been on Armour since around 7/16 on 15mg. Some issues that has evolved is our insurance won't pay for armour, so she started on Naturethroid. She seemed to feel worse so we started paying out of pocket for Armour again but he increased it to 30mg stating her body might need to be...
Thanks for the reply Vince.
I had my levels checked and they are 314 on a 71-375 range. After searching excelmale I see optimal ranges fro 300-400 and some that say 500-600. I'm just trying to see if I can narrow it down a bit. Again I'm not chasing numbers, I'm just curious as to why the big...
I have been doing a lot of looking around this site for some time. I'm curious to find out, which I have used the search box to locate. Is there an OPTIMAL level sheet that list Vitamin D, DHEA etc and does it matter if you get blood work from LabCorp or Quest.
I have seen anything from 300 on...
I seemed to feel better a couple weeks after using .25 3x per week, then I felt like I was getting more fatigued and a lot less libido.
I will try dropping 1 pill a week until consult.
Yes Vince, went from 39 before adding AI. Ive been on AI for 8 weeks and it's down to 17. I was thinking the same thing as to taking the AI 2 times per week instead of 3. My blood draw was only an hour difference max. I also agree that the testosterone number are insignificant.
Thanks for your...
I'm currently a Defy patient with updated blood work and need some advise.
I called today to set up my follow up, but Dr Saya is 5 weeks out for phone consult YIKES!
My concern is that I'm currently doing testosterone 3x per week at .20ml, HCG 3x per week at .25ml and .25mg AI also 3 times per...
Oh crap...
HCG.
I took what I thought was the empty syringe and started to push air into the lipo c vial the noticed I picked up my hcg syringe😠. As I caught my mistake I looked at my hcg syringe and noted that I still had .1 of my original ..25.
I'm looking for suggestions on what to do with my nearly full 30ml vial.
I grabbed the wrong syringe and injected approximately .15ml into my lippo c vial that contained about 26ml.
Do you think I should throw it away or use it.
I have some 31gx5/16 syringes around. will these be long enough to inject Lipo-c?
I read it is preferred 1/2, but I have a bunch of these to use.
Thanks in advance.
Agree with it being too soon. It was suggested to test on this day from the urologist. This was prior to me finding this site and reading books.
Only test ran pre trt was total test which was 228, no Lh or FSH my PCP didn't run any of that.
In 2 weeks I'll see Dr. says.
I'm learning from my...
Yes unfortunately,never this high.
I inject Thursday evening and Friday morning, blood was Monday morning BEFORE INJECTION.
8weeks on trt at 1 injection per week.I took my urologist test was Monday morning after my previous Thursday evening injection, which should be on the down side of peak so...
I just reformatted and uploaded again also. I was fasting for about 13 hours. I am also taking Metformin 500mg 2x daily for pre diabetes, I forgot to mention that in my original post. Thanks for your reply!!
Hello everyone,
I just got my latest test results. First I would like to describe my situation starting a few months ago, which has led me to take many suggestions from this forum. I made an appointment with Dr. Saya in early December. I will be traveling to meet him in person.
I started TRT...

I'm guessing your asking why I tested on that day?
That's the day he sugested. I was wondering why also. I thought it was to see peak levels, but I would think you would want to see somewhere between peak and trough.
