[QUOTE="Janosch, post: 108006, member: 18149"] I am getting ready to have some labs drawn (12 weeks since starting TRT). I am trying to find out what would be helpful. My first labs were drawn 6 weeks after starting TRT. I was on 100mg Cypionate once a week. Labs were drawn 18 hours after my last injection. My results were as follows: Total T=812.6 Free T=22.02 SHBG=22.05 Albumin=4.5 Estradiol=49.41 (not sensitive) TSH=1.34 FreeT4=1.38 Vitamin D 25-OH=12 The lab my bloodworm was send to was InterPath. I am planning to go to DiscountLabs for my follow up. I am thinking Total T, Free T, Estradiol (sensitive test), SHBG. As a side note, I have not experienced any improvement in libido, which has been zero since I started TRT and still is zero (it was very low already prior to TRT). Following my labs, I started on an AI. I initially took 0.5mg twice a week. Due to information I read on this discussion group I decreased my AI to 0.25 twice a week to prevent crashing. I also got advice to split my injections to at least twice a week. I have been injecting 75mg twice a week (with my AI). I am 6'6 and currently weigh 282. I dropped down from 297 12 weeks ago. I would tremendously appreciate any advice you might have pertaining to what tests I should have run. [/QUOTE]
