[QUOTE="Cataceous, post: 171235, member: 38109"] If you have the test performed just prior to when you normally apply testosterone then you are measuring the low point, or trough, of your serum levels. If you measure two-to-four hours after applying testosterone then you are getting a number close to the maximum or peak value. Peak and trough serum levels are both useful to know, but doctors usually request one consistently to help with treatment decisions. Based on what you've said, it appears that the April test was at peak and the February one is a trough. Is this correct? [/QUOTE]
