My Specific testosterone results

[CoolInverter]

Hello All,

I have spoken to a doctor, however I am curious of what you all think of my blood test results.

It would be interesting to hear.

Of course testosterone is only one variable of many, but these are healthy, above-average numbers, if natural.

No way, are these natural levels, not with this SHBG level. I at least now you can brag about these high levels.

Head on over to a thread we got going on detailing where our members feel their best.

At what Free T level do you feel optimal?

I did get many other things tested, this is only a snippet. This is however completely natural and I am also 43 years old. I am considering TRT, my doctor told me this is above average but i would benefit to get my free test to around 900-1200.

I am just curious what other people think.

I will check out your thread but this is natural.

Wow, what a surprise! I’m afraid TRT isn’t going to do anything for you, you’re wasting your time. If you’re wanting to start TRT for muscle gain, I suggest you start with your lifting technique and nutrition.

Does this "doctor" think you'll benefit from having a dozen or two other hormones disrupted? LH, FSH, GnRH, kisspeptin, DHEA and progesterone to name a few. Prescribing testosterone at these natural levels is malpractice. You'd be hard pressed to find any situation in which it's healthier to have a hormone outside of the normal range. With the exception of musculature, most everything else we need testosterone for will not improve at higher levels. Sometimes it's the opposite. Just look at all the guys around here who have lost libido on TRT. And then there are other common side effects, including loss of fertility, water retention, excessive emotionalism from high estradiol, and elevated hematocrit.

And people still bother to look at TRT with such natural levels? C'mon man get serious, if these are your natural levels, then exhaust all other boxes, optimise everything, crank up your training, diet, sleep, etc, and live your best life. Don't waste your time, like @Systemlord said.

I would add quite a few more common side effects to that list, including hair loss, acne, insomnia, anxiety, high blood pressure, erectile and cognitive dysfunction.
