No, I am not working out at all and my diet isn't great either. I still expected to feel some difference from the T though. I don't want to make a bunch of excuses, but I have no energy. I work 2nd shift, 3pm-2am, in a machine shop. I also have 2 young kids and am putting my girlfriend through...

I know that is likely an option I will have to look in to. My concern is the cost. As of now my insurance company covers everything except for HCG. I guess that doesn't matter much though, if I don't feel any different.

My T injection is only 50mg every 3.5 days. Also, I think the E2 test was a standard instead of the ultra sensitive.

I think it may be time to find a new doc, again... I had my appointment on the 22nd. Maybe she was in a bad mood, but she didn't seem open to anything. She had blood drawn in the office. She also seems to now think that a trough in the 500's of T is great and the ultra sensitive E2 test is not...

Yes, she is open. I was waiting for my next blood work to see what HCG does before taking that step.

I hope so as well. I don't see my Uro until March, but I can get blood drawn whenever. Labs I will need then are TT, FT, E2, Prolactin, SHBG, DHT, fT3, fT4, rT3. Am I missing anything? Should I have CBC checked again? I had a CMP last year. Should that be done again? What about DHEA-S? I'm...

Looking back through my Patient Portal for Chesapeake Urology, I see that Prolactin was checked in 2013. It does not list a specific value though, only "in normal range." I have never had thyroid labs in addition to TSH. The 597 TT trough is higher than usual. I'm usually in the 475-550 range...

I am not sure about prolactin or DHT. Is it still something I should have checked, along with SHBG, next blood draw?

I don't have any current SHBG values. It was tested by my first Uro 2 1/2 years ago. I can dig that up if it would be relevant. I plan on adding it to my next blood work at the end of the month too. I do inject 2 shots of 50mg per week already. Looking back at my post, I could have said it more...

Hi, I've been on T replacement for 3 years with little improvement. I started on Androgel for 6 months, but it did nothing. I've been on Test C @100mg/week for the past 2 1/2 years. Initially I started out injecting weekly, but I am now at every 3.5 days for the past 1 1/2 years. My Uro also...
