Starting Over on TRT

@jtm87 , clomid 50mg twice each day? That’s highly questionable.

@Gman86 Did you ever post your bloodwork on creams? I saw you mention it a week ago but must have missed your labs.

Was doing my own labs through discounted labs most of the time. Then I ran my usual labs at the end through Defy. I also did my total and free through discounted labs at the end as well just to see what the difference would be between labcorp and quest. Also, since quest and labcorp use a different way to measure the results, I wanted to see what the the equivalent labcorp result to the quest result.

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.
