[QUOTE="Vettester Chris, post: 30501, member: 696"] Yes, going by your earlier labs, pretty suffice to say you were "Secondary". If "Primary", you'd see those LH & FSH numbers elevated, and "usually" (not always) it's pretty common to see the baseline testosterone serum to be much lower, like < 100ng/dl type lower. As far as protocols go, test is test, once you introduce exogenous testosterone to the system (and you have), it will raise the serum levels to the level appropriate to the medication amount (xxmg/week), and that will be the new serum level regardless of being primary or secondary. The only other variable to that would be HCG, which would have an impact on endogenous production of testosterone "if" you were/are "secondary" (and you are), and testicular function of the leydig cells is functional. That last part will be different with everyone, so it's just important to gauge how HCG impacts the testosterone serum levels after being introduced. [/QUOTE]
