[QUOTE="madman, post: 199731, member: 13851"] Your TT 9.6 nmol/L (276.8 ng/dL) is absurdly low and even with a lowish SHBG 19.2 nmol/L your FT would be in the gutter. Although TT is important to know FT is what truly matters as it is the active unbound fraction of testosterone responsible for the positive effects. The only way to know where your FT truly sits is to have it tested using the most accurate assays such as the gold standard Equilibrium Dialysis or Ultrafiltration (next best). Your FT was most likely done using the calculated method (cFTV) as the piss poor direct analog immunoassay is no longer used/relied upon. Definitely not done using the most accurate assays such as ED or UF as not many have access to such. Looking over your labs/reference ranges I can tell you are a fellow Canadian as these are the reference ranges/units used at one of our major labs Lifelabs. You can definitely give the hCG mono a go but will most likely end up going on trt. 250IU EOD would be too low a dose for mono. I would look into Natesto or Enclomiphene.....mind you Clomid is only available in Canada. There are ways to still maintain fertility when using exogenous testosterone.
