Regarding the labs above I should have been more clear. They reflect my previous protocol with nandrolone, which was: 25 mg test cyp, 10mg nandrolone x 3 times a week. 450 HCG IU x 2 week.


Most recent labs 1.5 days after injection (LabCorp)

Total T: 1323 NG/dL

Free T Direct: 33 pg/ML

Estradiol sensitive (LC/MS/MS) 18.3 pg/mL

Shbg: 21 nmol/L





These labs were from this protocol (25 mg test cyp, 10mg nandrolone x 3 times a week. 450 HCG IU x 2 week)?


Was your TT tested using the most accurate assay (LC/MS-MS)?


Which panel did your doctor give you?

Now I'm curious how do you get equilibrium dialysis ft test?


I have been stressing this on the forum for years, numerous threads/posts on here!


Most are using Quest Diagnostics or Labcorp.


Both labs offer the gold standard ED assay.





Your best bet as it is more cost effective would be through Nelson's discounted labs!

Are you saying that you have not had blood work done since dropping the ND and adding the oxandrolone to your protocol?
