[QUOTE="Buff56, post: 185035, member: 41149"] I experienced an elevated Hb level and my doc prescribed a therapeutic phlebotomy course of weekly donations until my Hb dropped to 15.5. Subsequent blood tests indicated a ferritin level of 12. Thus my trip to receive an endoscopy/colonoscopy for possible internal bleeding which was negative. My hematologist told me to quit the TRT. The middle finger was soon presented. I researched and found several articles and podcasts regarding iron and TRT By James Cambell. Here is the link to one of the articles: [URL="https://jayccampbell.com/blog/why-you-need-to-take-care-of-hemoglobin-and-hematocrit-levels-while-on-tot/"]Why You Need to Take Care of Hemoglobin and Hematocrit Levels While on TOT | Jay Campbell[/URL] If you use the search function and search ”phlebotomy” more articles were show up. I have decided to keep my TRT protocol and deal with the high Hb. There are indigenous people in Nepal that have Hb levels in the 20’s and don’t experience any blood-related complications. I also take low level iron supplements. Enjoy! [/QUOTE]
