[QUOTE="madman, post: 274976, member: 13851"] Was your blood work done in the early am in a fasted state? You are hitting a dismal TT 271.1 ng/dL which would have your FT low/borderline low depending on where your SHBG sits. My T level was low 300s with low FT when I started. The FT level you posted was calculated using the linear law-of-mass action cFTV which is available free online. You could have figured it out on your own if you plugged in your TT, SHBG, and Albumin. Keep in mind that cFTV tends to overestimate when compared to a standardized Equilibrium Dialysis assay (most accurate) so your FT level may very well be somewhat lower. My advice given in one of your previous threads still stands. Yes, I would start TTh. T only protocol 100 mg T/week split (50mg every 3.5 days). Blood work is done at the 6-week mark. The use of hCG can be thrown in after 6 weeks if need be.
