[QUOTE="madman, post: 253532, member: 13851"] Read over my reply in[I][B] post #20[/B][/I] again. You were overmedicated (200 mg T/week split twice weekly) from the get-go. As you can see you are hitting a very high trough TT 1003 ng/dL and the shit kicker here is your FT will be through the roof seeing as your SHBG is low 12 nmol/L. Your trough TT, FT, and estradiol are all high. Peak TT, FT, and estradiol are going to be much higher. You went from an absurdly low TT of 248 ng/dL pre-trt to a high trough (lowest point before the next injection) TT of 1003 ng/dL. Have no clue exactly where your SHBG sat pre-trt as you never had it tested but you have low SHBG now and your absurd weekly dose of T 200 mg/week split twice-weekly most likely drove it down. Again with a very high trough TT 1003 ng/dL and low SHBG your trough FT is going to be very high! Could have told you off the hop that you would most likely run into issues with elevated hemoglobin/hematocrit as your levels were already at the high end/slightly over pre-trt and with that whopping weekly starting dose of T it is a given that it will drive up your levels even further. Although your hematocrit is not absurdly high 10 weeks in you need to keep in mind that it can take anywhere from 9-12 months to reach peak levels. Need to look at the bigger picture. Your doctor is an idiot for starting you on 200mg T/week! Would not have even wasted my time getting your FT tested as all labs in Canada use the calculated method (cFTV). You have free access to this online! Take a good look at where your trough FT level sits! [ATTACH type="full" alt="1684078403232.png"]31594[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
