***MESO Blood Work Testing Protocol***

[trying to get big]

Those are terrible numbers for 750 a week.

 

[Burrr]

I just had my bloodwork done 6 weeks in on Darius' Test E. Although the bloods were drawn 26hrs from pin. Doing 750/week split between 2 injections. Also taking 30mg dbol per day. TT came back 1187? Any comments?

Damn that is really low. I get that number on 175 a week.

Great. I was hoping someone would do that. You might want to do this test on one of them to save you some cash. Probably don't need the full work up 2 days in a row.

is this is the only recommended blood test to take before, mid, and post cycle?

no, there are other things to check. this is just for seeing if your gear is good.

Will be getting bloods done soon. I am running test P and Anavar. I am assuming I will want to run just the test P alone for at least 14 days...get bloods...then start Anaver for the remainder of the cycle? I want to provide accurate results.

Is there a canadian version of those privatemdlabs guys.

There have been many questions regarding blood work and testing protocols. This thread will outline the protocols that we will use to better judge quality of gear. The protocols will be set for the most commonly used esters of Testosterone, TE/TC/TP.

For this to work, there must be uniformity across the board. If you are testing gear for potency, these protocols MUST be followed. Obviously everyone is entitled to do blood work whenever and however they want but if you want it to be accepted on the board for these purposes, simply follow the protocol. This will allow us to collect data with consistency.

Using the following protocol, we will be testing for PEAK TT values.


-Protocol for Testosterone Enanthate/Cypionate-

Duration: At least 6 weeks into cycle (I realize these esters can stabilize sooner than 6 weeks but this will leave no doubt. It’s pretty close to most members mid-cycle labs also.

Blood Draw: Blood should be drawn at 48hr +/- 12hrs post pin. The goal is to be as close to 48hrs as possible.


-Protocol for Testosterone Propionate-

Duration: At least 14 days into cycle

Blood Draw: Blood should be drawn at 24hrs +/- 8hrs post pin. The goal is to be as close to 24hrs as possible.


*If there are any questions or suggestions to improve upon this and you have sources of data to back it up, by all means post it up and it will be reviewed and implemented if need be.

Here is a link for privatemdlabs. This test will give TT values without being capped at 1500 ng/dl.

There are other testing services, so use whichever you like but please ensure it gives total values.

Thank you to all who decide to follow this and post blood work for the good of the board. Your contributions are greatly appreciated.

Great post. Question for you - if I have a doctor/PA who will order my bloods, I won't need to buy these other things right? I can just let Quest draw and run the tests?

 

[Burrr]

It's hard to say what blood testing protocol your Dr uses, sometimes they draw their own blood and have a local hospital run tests.
Also, are you cool with explaining to your Dr that you need a blood test to see if your steroids are good and that your on cycle estrogen is dialed in?
sometimes it's just easier to do your own with labsmd.com
also, I suggest 24hrs after the pin.... that's when I usually catch a peak level

 

[T-Bagger]

Ok, so I am clear here - would I do the same test all three times - Pre, during and post?

 

[Burrr]

I'd do the female hormone panel, all 3 times

Thanks bro!

350mg ew bloods 4 days later 41nmol/l.

Low or to long after injection for correct value?

What's the reference range?

What's the reference range?

Natural range?

8-29.

It all depends on how you respond really. It seems fairly close for 96 hours post injection though.

Thanx man, any websites or formula you can use to calculate how much injected test drops every 24hrs?

Blood work order asks for 12 hours of fasting prior to the test. Is fasting important or is that a generic directive on all orders?

You should be fine testing your basic female hormone panel. As long as you're not testing your lipids. Even then not fasting would only impact your triglycerides.

Just make sure your hydrated.

Is there anyway LE would be caught up in getting blood tests done? Or I'm I going to said place giving some red stuff to then then that facility ships it to somewhere else? How does it work
