Hello there,
Yes, another thread asking for the typical bloodwork advice.
31M
175 cm / 5 7' or 5 8' i don't really know
75 kg / 165 lbs
Been on 4 iu HGH for a year. Glucose is 84.
I just did my bloods and needed a second opinion.
Everything looks fine except LDL which is a bit high at 118, but it's always been like that since I was a kid.
AST is also a bit high at 38 (14-35) but I had a few drinks the day before (dumb I know).
Now when looking at hormones I've got:
LH: 3.04
FSH: 2.45
SHBG: 22.4 nmol/L (13.5 - 71.4)
Test: 552 ng/dl (129 - 768)
Free Test: 11 pg/ml (5.4 - 40.1)
E2: 39 pg/ml (<43)
Prolactin: 5.82 ng/ml (4.04 - 15.20)
IGF-1: 316 (63 - 234)
The way I see it, my test is completely average, SHBG is low but free test isn't high as should be expected. Instead, I've got E2 pretty high.
I'm taking Fin, so I guess DHT is nowhere to be found and that leads to an increase in E2. But I didn't expect it to be that high.
With estradiol being almost out of the range I don't think I can manage even 300mg of test without an AI.
My plan was to run a 16week 300-500 mg cycle. I don't want to mix other substances yet as it's my first one. And I'm a bit sceptical about AIs and hair.
What do you guys think about estradiol being at 39 off-cycle? Will it skyrocket?
What can be done, from a natty point of view, to lower E2? (That doesn't involve wrecking my hair with AIs)
Regards
