My doctor ran several tests and here is all of my pre-T that he ran on me. Everything except for my: testosterone levels and Vitamin D were either in range, or close to range. My doctor started me on 100 mg weekly of cypionate, but no HCG. Please let me know if everything looks okay to y'all. (I know other tests were also recommend, but the place I go to is a clinic on a college campus and this is what they could run.)

It looks like the doctor did not check your E2 levels or Free T levels. Your SHBG is on the low side and that can present challenges as well.

How long have you been on TRT, or did you literally just get started?

Free T is 6.9/8.7-25.1. You should consider investing in an Estradiol sensitive test from Discountedlabs.com. You need a baseline and taht single test is reasonably priced. And your Vitamin D is low. Consider supplementing it.
 
Evo, after a long battle, yes, today was my first shot.

CoastWatcher, I'll definitely look into that and see when I can get that one ordered. EDIT: which looks like at 8:30 in the morning. ....although they did give me a shot today, it's the closest I can get right now.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
