[QUOTE="madman, post: 194047, member: 13851"] I would prefer to have seen TT/FT done using the accurate assays and although your TT/SHBG stayed consistent over numerous labs you had your FT tested using the piss poor direct immunoassay which I would not rely upon. Although you did state that your TT (standard assay) dropped significantly when switching to sub-q. To get an accurate FT whether direct testing or calculated method TT would need to be done using the LC/MS-MS assay. I am more concerned with where your FT truly sat and unfortunately to know such you would need to use the most accurate assays such as the gold standard Equilibrium Dialysis or Ultrafiltration (next best). What jumps out is that your estradiol (LC/MS-MS) was significantly lower when on the sub-q protocol and you stated that: [B]I'd say the major differences were exhaustion during the day (falling asleep at work a few times), poor sleep and worsening of libido, joint pain, and losing a sense of well-being. All of which are low estradiol symptoms for me.[/B] [/QUOTE]
