Blood Work - 500mg Test C & 300 Primo E - CCUSA

[deftmonk]

Hey guys just got 6 week labs on 500mg Test C and 300mg Primo E per week. I pin Sun/Tues/Thurs nights and I got blood drawn on Thursday morning appx. 36 hours after last pin. Blood work is attached.

Total T 2196 ng/dL
Free T 897.8 pg/mL
E2 33 pg/mL
SHBG 11 nmol/L (calculated)

Last year I ran 300mg Test C from same source and got the below results:

Total T 2055 ng/dL
Free T 465 pg/mL
E2 125 pg/mL
SHBG 54 nmol/L (calculated)

Shouldn't my Total T be a lot higher on 500mg Test? It's almost the same as it was on 300mg Test and I pinned at the same time on the same pinning schedule.

Hey!
Was the interval between pin and blood work the same? 36h?

Yes it was the same.

My guess would be that currently your SHBG is a lot lower than before. You're free T is WAY higher than the previous test. Unbound T clears your body much faster. My guess would be faster clearance pus the normal variability that occurs with testing. Did you use the same blood draw facility and laboratory for each test?

You're free T is WAY higher than the previous test. Unbound T clears your body much faster.

Only 2-4% of testosterone is free.
Less than 1% is converted to estradiol.
The difference within the margin of error cannot be explained by this.

It's almost the same as it was on 300mg Test

Was it Test Cyp or Test E?

Did you use the same blood draw facility and laboratory for each test?

Good question, too.

What I was thinking is that because shbg is so low there's a ton of free tests in his system which is being cleared more rapidly and not showing on this blood test at all. Maybe I'm way off in this thinking but just spitballing here.

Well, the Primo def seems to be helping your raise your free test. The total test result is odd. Since I don't know myself, the responses so far seem plausible to me.

Yes, same facility and lab.

It was test C and same lab/facility.

Primo lowered SHBG, free testosterone increased. It makes sense.

It was test C and same lab/facility.

Your weight hasn't changed since then?
If all conditions are equal... maybe the quality of the drug is worse ((

Maybe get a test vial from a different source and use that with the other compounds for 4 to 6 weeks and then test yourself again. If the test is similar then you'll know that that's just the way your body is on those doses.
