I’ve been in a caloric deficit since July and had bloodwork done in October and then again at the end of the year. For most of the year I was running 50mg x3 per week (150mg total), which kept my total testosterone in the 900–1015 range. During the last 6 weeks of the cut I bumped to 75mg x3 (225mg total) but from a different source.
I came down with flu-like symptoms on December 23rd (fever chills body aches), and had my blood drawn on the 31st. Despite the increase in dose my total T went from 942 in October to 879 and free T dropped from 204.5 to 175.4. Hematocrit also went from 51.9 down to 49.8.
I’m assuming this is from being in a prolonged deficit plus my body fighting off the virus?
