KSman is Here

No questions, currently, but just as an FYI injecting into my quads using a 1mL syringe scored me positive on a preggo test. It’s also a different brand of syringe. Maybe the .5mLs could work but I’ve tried injecting very slowly with the brand that I have (Aimsco) and that method couldn’t get me a positive on the preggo.

Hi KSman, I would appreciate your opinion here:

Thanks for your help KSman

KSman if you have time I have updated this thread.

thank you,

Hey KSman

Have new labs and need your opinion, because I have no idea what to make of them.

Hi KSman,

I have updated my thread with labwork and would like to know your opinion.

Thank you

Hey,

If you’re sick of the consistent questions please let me know. I don’t really have any other source of information. I don’t know a doctor who can answer these questions and I haven’t been able to find the answers searching on the forum.

For whatever reason the HCG, although scoring me positive on a pregnancy test twice, is still not recovering my testes. I’m also wondering if TRT is really what I should be doing in the context of adrenal fatigue. I don’t want permanent HPTA damage and I’m considering going off right now or going on an alternative therapy which would cause less damage (if a SERM is actually that).

Questions in the thread, though: http://tnation.T-Nation.com/free_online_forum/sports_training_performance_bodybuilding_trt/24_yo_tt_264_ft_152_range_43_304_pgl_?id=6251735&pageNo=2.

KSman,

I got my most recent blood work back and I have no clue what is going on? Please take a look at it again when you get a moment…

Thanks in advance.

KSman,

Have tried my best to answer your questions. Have a proposed plan of action, would like your opinion.

Many thanks,

KSman,

I updated the fT3 labs, if you would take a look.

Thanks in advance again.

KSman,

Could you please check the new test results, that don’t make much sense to me? Thread is here, thanks!

KSman,

I added responses to what you asked about.

Hi KSman, I would like to ask your opinion on the labs concerning phase 1 of my HPTA restart, here:

http://tnation.T-Nation.com/free_online_forum/sports_training_performance_bodybuilding_trt/day_1_of_restart_attempt?id=6321229&pageNo=1

I think, if it is possible, that I am an extreme aromatizer…

Thanks, see you there.

Ksman, could you take a look at my thread when you have a chance?

Bump, sorry if I come across as needy, but I am sort of in limbo here :wink:

Hi KSMan, if you could respond to my latest reply, that would be great!

Hi KSman!

I wanted to see what you thought about my recent labs here:

https://tnation.T-Nation.com/free_online_forum/sports_training_performance_bodybuilding_trt/estradiol_levels_and_free_t_

It may have been premature to get labs after only 2 doses of eod T after switching from IM to SQ, and I missed a shot right before the transition. I noticed at the gym this morning that I could barely bench press a weight that I normally have no problem with-- just ran out of steam completely. I have a feeling that might be more the result of e2 being too low than low T. I have really dialed back the anastrazole to only .06ml/mg.

I’m really curious if the SQ test might take longer to get to steady state… When I was doing IM I had a really clear idea of how my body “took” the T, thanks to being a bit OCD with blood work. I am hoping that SQ is just a very different slope… I’ve now had 5 doses (last fri, sun, tue, wed, fri) I skipped my off day on wednesday since I had my results from tuesday and was eager to get a boost…

I have been on 30mg eod for a couple of months now.

thanks!
Graham

Hi KSman, when you have an opportunity, can I ask your advice in the above thread please?

Okay i requested the results and got them today, although looking at these it seems hard to translate and i dont think they have given me everything you asked for but ill go ahead and copy what i have

Serum testosterone: 17.1 nmol/L
Serum Prolactin: 10mu/L
CBC: White cell count: 5.6 10*9/L
Haemoglobin estimation: 152 g/L
Serum ALT level: 16 u/L
Alp?: 61 u/L
Serum TSH: 3.38 miu/L
9am Cortisol: 523 nmol/L
SHBG: 38nmol/L
T4: 16.5 pmol/L
Free androgen index: 45.0 “low”

As i noted earlier i couldnt fill everything you mention and added a few other
stuff, im not sure what androgen index is but its noted as low and i also know
that my prolactin levels are low but this was because i took cabergolin last month
hoping it would give me my libido and morning woods… but clearly but prolactin
levels were normal and i made them low, i was limp before the cabergolin just to
clear it up.

EDIT: I just researched and found that the free androgen index is the free testosterone level.
