[QUOTE="madman, post: 196528, member: 13851"] Your first set of labs that tested FT using an accurate assay (Equilibrium Ultrafiltration) is the one you want to rely on. The only way to know where your FT level truly sits is to have it tested using an accurate assay such as the gold standard Equilibrium Dialysis or Ultrafiltration (next best). Forget using/relying on the piss poor direct immunoassay. Even if you would have only tested TT and SHBG I would have guessed that with a TT 900s and lowish SHBG 20 nmol/L that your FT level would have been high. As you can clearly see with a TT 914ng/dL and SHBG 20 nmol/L that your FT is very high roughly 45 ng/dL and if these are your trough levels then keep in mind that levels 8-12 hrs post-injection will be higher. Regardless as ERO stated if you feel well overall and blood markers are healthy then I would not change a thing. If you are struggling on such protocol let alone dealing with any sides whether cosmetic/blood markers then you easily have room to lower your dose slightly and bring down your FT. Next time save your $$$ and forget using piss-poor assays when testing hormones! [/QUOTE]
