Everything is in range or REALLY close. Are you even running anything right now?
Nothing for over 4 months now. My fasting glucose needs to go down and LH is high for some reason, but I'm happy with the results.
Since quitting smoking/drinking almost a year ago I do snack more so I'll slow that down and increase cardio and implement daily fasting and that should get my fasting bg down a lot better.
My ldl could go down a bit more as well and hdl could go up a few points as well.
Bumping this in hopes of more feedback. I can see the "Normal" ranges for everything, but I'm wondering what the optimal range is for the important stuff like hdl/ldl....is my cholesterol good or should It be better for longevity purposes?
I'm ashamed of having a Hba1c of 6 so I'm back on a strict 3 meal per day/minimal carb diet and getting back into the swing of daily cardio/weight training after being lazy the past couple months. I also have slow release metformin on the way and currently deciding if I'm going to use it right away or wait and see how my BG is after 3 months of clean diet.
Oh and I'm also very curious about my progesterone/prolactin/estradiol/estrogen levels, are they high or normal?
Thanks for any advice and info

Urinalysis: MUCUS: trace
So you just got a blowjob before the test?? Haha
The LH is weird? If your LH is that high why isnt your testosterone above reference range?
The last time i pulled bloods i had a similar LH and my total test was 1800, basically double the top end of the reference range.
I thought elevated LH went hand in hand with elevated testosterone??
Would high LH but unequivocally high testosterone be a potential indicator of testicular dysfunction? I.e.the signals there but the testicles are desensitized to it or simply unable to respond adequately?

Curious to know if you run a health stack of any kind?
Bergamot, Astragalus, Berberine, Curcumin, etc...

Nope nothing like that. Only thing I take daily is ibuprofen with my morning coffee.

Why? For pain or magical effects?
Also i thought word on the street was ibuprofen killed gainz.
Magical effects? What the hell you talking about lol? I take ibuprofen for sore joints and it doesn't hinder gains that I've noticed, not at all.
To be frank, the science behind either of these is FAR from settled.

You know what really hinders gains? Walking around with every joint aching.

Now this is purely anecdotal, but I remember listening to Chris Bell one time talk about how he used to live on ibuprofen because he always ached. He said one day he stopped taking it, and within a week or two, most of his aches and pains went away.
Now I never researched any of this so I cannot even say if there is a shred of clinical data to back any of it up. But I used to take about 1600mg/day of ibuprofen, and after hearing Chris Bell say that, I thought I would give it a try. I had the same experience, within a couple of weeks, most or all of my aches and pains went away. This was a few years ago now and I rarely take ibuprofen anymore.
So there you have it, anecdotal data with a sample size n=2. Take that for what it's worth. But I thought I would share.

I have heard this too, and I don't know the exact mechanism, but inflammation drives nutrients to areas of the body needing repair. So if you're hindering the effect of pushing nutrients to areas needing repair, they won't repair as well?
Maybe, just a thought.
This is largely why Chris Duffin has always preached against ice baths for workout recovery.

For 4 months off I'd say those are pretty good bloods.. there is some improvement that can be made..but nothing concerning or hard to fix I don't believe.. I'm far from an expert.. your test is a little low .. I may be wrong here since it's not ng/dl. But honestly I believe you had said before your not young but not old either.. 40s I think right? Whatever your doing it seems to be working..
Do you plan to go back on cycle or trt? I'd like to see your bloods then .. see how much or little they change.
I've gone weeks without ibuprofen before and the joint pain didn't go away, but that's just me and I think it's silly to believe ibuprofen kills gains lol. Of the thousands of bodybuilders who compete or just lift for pleasure how many of them you think use ibuprofen, probably a lot and a lot probably take other NSAIDS as well along with other stuff like aspirin and harsher painkillers too.
I've bulked up many times while taking ibuprofen and no gains were hindered for me.

I'm thinking of going on 50mgs prop EOD and pulling bloods at 30/60/90 days to see how everything changes and if all looks good switching to 20mgs test-e or cyp ED.
