Blood work 27yo Male 5 years post cycle

[Jsw0le]

Good morning gents, wondering if you all could take a look at blood work for interpreting if I need Trt or not. I am a 27 year old male, 6’2” compete in strongman a couple of times year, current body weight is at 285lbs. I am natty currently besides prescribed thyroid medication. Not sure on body fat but probably high. I lift 3 days a week for about 4 hours a session, training strongman events, along with accessories and bench squat and deadlift. Then 3 days a week riding my bike in high gear, hiking, or running hills all for about 30 minutes to 1.5 hours really just depends on energy levels and caffeine intake lol. I have messed around with AAS a bit in the past. One 6 week cycle at epistane, and ostarine when I was 18. And another at 22, where i blasted and cruised on test e 250-500 mg a week for about 8 months with some random mini oral cycles. My biggest weakness now is diet. I am currently implementing a plan for lowish carb on non lifting days, with intermittent fasting a few times a week. Mainly trying to avoid all wheat and gluten (dont laugh but it makes a difference for me) and maintain high protein, and vegetable and fruit intake along with potatoes and rice.
My diet over the past 3 years has not been great, sweets, fast food, etc. i am taking steps to clean it up, and improve my numbers. And possibly go on without trt. I also have 5-8 beers on the weekend. Blood pressure was 145/82. But my arms are also just over 20 inches, so not sure if that is the cuff or not lol. Resting pulse between 56-62bpm. Thanks for your input in advance.

Will also note I am cutting out alcohol completely. I drink a few cups of coffee in the am. Pre workout before lifting but plan to cut that out as well. Do you all think I can increase my test and free test while lowering estro i lose some weight? I am looking to knock off about 50lbs. Current supplement routine includes daily probiotic, vitamin B complex. Zyrtec every otherday for allergies, coq10 and a shitload of fishoil every day.

At 637 ng/dL you don't really need TRT unless you are feeling symptoms. It's not as good as let's say 900 ng/dL but if you lose some weight you can probably get those numbers up.
Also, get Free T3 checked next time for your thyroid. I noticed you only checked Free T4. It's useless without knowing if it converts to Free T3.
Liver looks good man.

Thanks brother, I ordered one of the pre made panels on private md. Male hormone #1 . The test with free t3 and lh and fsh was $500 vs $160 for the one I got. I take about 5 grains of armour a day. Is my IGF-1 anything to worry about? Glucose or lipids look ok? Thanks for weighing in. I hope i can get 900 ng/dl after losing 40-50 lbs lol. At that weight my strongman days will be done.

the reason I ask about trt is sometimes I feel like my libido is low. Only really interested in sex or orgasm about once or twice a day. 3 times is really pushing it lol. Just feel like I should be more “interested” for my age, but that is probably the cost of using aas I suppose. Thanks again.

Damn your T is higher than mine and we are the same age... I would say being near 700 you wouldn't even need to hop on. There is plenty of guys who are killing it just in that range. At the end of the day, it's your decision to make.

Lmao, I think you have a really fucked up perception of what low libido is. Trt ain’t gona make you fuck all day and night. Maybe 500/500 test/mast a
Week would have you capable of fucking 24/7 but sex can be just as mental as physical. Also training 4 hours is probably going to make you tired and I’ve been on a pretty damn good blast of test where I went from being able to fuck when ever to not being able to stay awake long enough to think about it. Overtraining is a bitch
