Very Strange Test Results

[mxman420]

So I have my bi-weekly injection increased from 35ml to 45ml, basically 70 to 90. (Testosterone Cypionate 200mg/mL, 10mL)
So just had my follow-up labs done, previously my labs were:
Testosterone, Serum 209 Low ng/dL
Free Testosterone(Direct) 5.7 Low pg/mL
Estradiol, Sensitive 13.0 pg/mL

These labs were:
Testosterone, Serum 1115 High ng/dL
Free Testosterone(Direct) 31.0 High pg/mL
Estradiol, Sensitive 55.4 High pg/mL

This makes no sense to me.
Maybe have to get new labs?

Previous labs can’t be right. You were on 140mg/wk and had a level of 209???

New labs look about right.

You probably tested at peak, not trough

 

[mxman420]

Previously have been 196 and 14.4, then 209 & 5.7, then 299 & 8.4. Now 1115 & 31.
Should I be worried?

Nope, Sunday mornings and Wednesday night is when I take my shots. I tested at 8:30am Wednesday morning.

I just never saw such changes so fast or so much and just a bit worried by such.
I did change from Empower pharmacy's compounded test to Westward Brand.
Don't know if that would make any difference.

I think your first lab test results, not your second, are more suspect.

 

[mxman420]

Is 1115 & 31 too high? And the Estradiol, Sensitive 55.4.
I'm 51.

It's hard to predict total testosterone values. You are at 90 mg per week, which makes you a great responder when it comes to blood levels. I have seen people reach that level at 100 mg per week

Is he at 90 per week or 90 twice per week?

Your lips aren't be too high. What level is your HCT at.

 

[mxman420]

(200mg/mL, 10mL) I take 45mL twice a week.

49.7

He is taking 180mg per week split in two doses. his second labs would be in line.

Just trying to make sure i get it correct, it's 200/10=20 per ml. If I'm taking 45ml each shot, its 20*4.5=90mg per shot or like you said 180mg a week?

Most people on this forum that get in to a situation like this just aren't as consistent with their dose and schedule as they purport to be. Then you're asking for help doing the math on dosing which makes it much more obvious answer in the disparity being user error.
We can point to lab error but not to this degree, I'd rule out lab error.

How long had you been on compounded test? I’d have been worried i was taking 140mg and still at ~200. What’s your shbg?

Also it’s .45ml. Your entire bottle is 10ml.

Thanks Vince. I appreciate the fact that I'm trying to verify and basically being told I'm a lying idiot.

Estrogen is too high that's for sure.

Thanks.
Compounding, I was on for a year, stopped for 6 months, then went back on again for 4. Then asked if I could try the other just to see. Same price basically but processing and shipping was quicker.

Just trying to get a handle on this. I'll be the first to tell you that at the start 2 years ago, I was anything but consistent. On, then off then on and off again. Since November, I haven't missed a dose and have been right on with what I was told to take.
