*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.


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.
