[QUOTE="Donovan P, post: 130164, member: 19305"] I have just received the results of my 90 day follow up labs and I am seeking advice on how to interpret them. Some of the highlights: [LIST] [*]Testosterone, Serum: 334 -> 1174 ng/dL [*]Free Testosterone (Direct): 7.8 -> 32.2 pg/mL [*]Estradiol, Sensitive: 11.5 -> 25.4 pg/mL [*]SHBG, Serum: 46.7 -> 33.6 nmol/L [*]DHEA-Sulfate: 572.9 -> 543.8 ug/dL [*]TSH: 2.070 -> 1.840 uIU/mL [/LIST] Despite huge increases in my testosterone levels, thus far, there have not been any noticeable improvements in my subjective symptoms (depressive mood, general lethargy, low libido, mediocre erectile quality, difficulty concentrating). In addition, I have not gained any strength in the gym, and my body weight and body composition are unchanged. Similarly, I have not experienced any negative side effects. I just don't feel any different. I have attached my actual 90 day follow up lab results; TRT intake labs back in August; as well as an initial set of labs I did with another Physician in July (which lead to me looking further into Testosterone Deficiency, due to 342 ng/dl Total T). Unlike my previous sets of labs, I intentionally stayed out of the gym for over 4 days before my 90 day follow up labs (11/23). That likely explains the huge decreases in BUN, Creatinine, and liver enzymes. Some high level data about me: [LIST] [*]Just turned 28 [*]Height: 5'9 [*]Weight: 165 lbs. [*]Body fat % - 15.0%, per a July 2018 DEXA Scan [*]Current TRT protocol: 70mg TestCyp IM every 3.5 days; 400IU HCG SQ every 3.5 days. [/LIST] Like I said, thus far, it honestly doesn't feel like anything is different at all. I would really appreciate your guys' thoughts, and any advice you can offer to help me prepare for my appointment next week. [/QUOTE]
