[QUOTE="Cataceous, post: 244260, member: 38109"] The direct test is inaccurate and should be ignored. Vermeulen calculated free testosterone (cFTV) based on your first test is about 11 ng/dL, which is a healthy level. If SHBG and albumin are extrapolated to the second test then the cFTV value is about 8 ng/dL, which is borderline. I wouldn't consider conventional TRT with these numbers, but you could try testosterone nasal gel or troches to see if you get any benefits. With your hematocrit already a little high in range you'll want to keep an eye on it. [/QUOTE]
