[QUOTE="madman, post: 257197, member: 13851"] You are injecting 90 mg T split (M/W/F) so your true trough would be Monday morning before your next injection. What day did you have labs done? You tested your FT using the known to be inaccurate direct immunoassay. Need to have it tested using what would be considered the most accurate assays such as the gold standard Equilibrium Dialysis or Ultrafiltration. Otherwise for the time being you will need to use/rely upon the linear law-of-mass action cFTV. Keep in mind the calculated methods have their flaws. Using the cFTV with a robust TT 552ng/dL, normal SHBG 30.4 nmol/L, and Albumin 4.3g/dL (default) as we have no idea where it sits since you never had it tested or did not post the results your FT would be 12.4 ng/dL. Definitely not really low but keep in mind as of now cFTV tends to overestimate FT. If you had it tested using and accurate assay such as Quest Diagnostics ED your FT would most likely be lower. When it comes to oily skin/acne high estradiol is not the culprit! If the lab results you posted are true trough (Monday morning) then your peak TT, FT, and estradiol are going to be higher! You are missing critical blood markers RBCs, hemoglobin, and hematocrit. [/QUOTE]
