[QUOTE="madman, post: 220023, member: 13851"] [B][I]*My last lab came back 702 TT, 14.9 FT, 425 DHEA, 4.6 Prolactin, 24.5 Estradiol Sensitive, 64 DHT, although my SHBG is on the higher end, usually in the high 40s.[/I][/B] Would not even consider jumping on trt without knowing where your FT level truly sits. Critical that you are using accurate assays TT (LC/MS-MS) and Free testosterone (Equilibrium Dialysis or Ultrafiltration), especially in cases of altered SHBG! Blood work needs to be done in the morning between 7-10 am in a fasted state. Even then would be better to test around 8 am as we always want to test at the peak. If you lift weights take a week off before getting blood work done.
