The Basics of Ordering Bloodwork

[ktfarver]

awesome thread. glad i was able to locate it and get a plan for bloods to be done.

It comes up often, and I thought it would be helpful to have links all in one thread.

For best results, get bloods taken pre cycle, mid cycle, and a couple months after PCT.

Pre cycle and post cycle bloods can be done the cheapest, You can order the "female hormone panel" from privatemdlabs.com. This test will give you blood info, LH, FSH test and estro numbers that are correct if your not on a cycle. This test costs $62 and often has discount codes available.
Private MD - Buy Lab Tests Online

Labsmd.com also offers a female hormone panel and costs about $70.

Mid cycle bloods can not be done as cheaply. The testing method needs to be LC/MS.
The privateMD female panel cuts off at a test level of 1500.
You can use the female hormone panel from Labsmd.com

If your cycle does not include deca, tren, or similar 19-nors you can use a few different tests from privateMD. PrivateMD will often give false readings from blood containing tren or deca. The tren shows up as E2 and the deca shows up as grossly exagortated test level.


This hormone panel costs $99 and will give an accurate test number over 1500.

Labsmd.com uses Quest Diagnostics for there blood draws and lab work.
PrivateMDlabs.com uses LabCorp for blood draws and lab work.
The company you order from functions as your DR and orders the tests for you. There are labs all over the country, it should be easy to find one near you.

You went to your doctor for bloods? Tsk tsk. If they know you're doing steroids your insurance premiums might increase, because now you are at risk of health problems down the road. They'll blame it on the gear and have blood work to prove you took gear.

Ok ...im not sure how or why but 1 to 2 weeks after my last pin an onset of acne began and progressively got worse. I mean cycstic once on chest and back which never really had it there. Only my face during adolescent years. Im 37 now so 36 last year. It peaked at 2 month period and lasted about solid 4 months and disappeared. So during my tailed of pct I went to doc. Asked for full blood panel cause I thought my body's hormones/chemical was all outta whack. I still have my results n my personal medical file which I can obtain via internet but my numbers were nothing alarming though. But beyond puberty acne I never had serious acne issues so im still scratching my head what went on with my massive cycstic acne. As far as the gear....well it was truly powerful shit that came from the 24k and im sure uve heard how fire his shit was....lol....it was bowdy bowdy....no joke...lol hahaha

Yeah its freaking embarrassing to say but it was like my body was slowly secreting all the toxins....it was gross man...like nickel sized boils mix with smaller regular acne. Ran clomid and nolvadex for pct....always take multivitamin....fishoil...milk thistle. I try to drink plenty of water too...but it can b hit or miss 4 me.
Now my first try few years back I did oral cycle which definitely gave me facial acne but nothing compared to my last experience with injectables. Im hoping I don't get it again. Just started another cycle 4 weeks ago which its been pretty much a year since last cycle. But yeah I don't know what happened when gettn such severe cycstic acne. Can't put my finger on it.

Have some accutane around for next time

Yes I agree. Lol nervous though cause I went to dermatologists for that reason and the doc made it sound like a big deal using it. He said it will work but said Id have to get bloods on my liver every 2 weeks. Said it reeks havoc on ppls liver. Lol...it kinda scared me and it was super expensive too. I looked around and its said to say but n the black market it appeared to b a fraction of the cost than doing it through medical supervision which is the smartest way obviously but freaked me out that Id have to sign some papers saying Id follow blah blah blah. Said its def taxing on ur liver.

Atleast where I live very few docs are willing to prescribe it

That will work but I heard it's really really bad for you.

Do you think if you switch to a different brand gear it would help?

Yes actually. ... 24 is nolonger around so several months I been reading and watching the underground etc etc. So I went ahead and purchased from 3 different vendors. So I will experiment wisely. That is a possible variable to consider. After u mentioned this I leaning towards that could been the culprit. Cause I stocked up on 24 prior to his departure. I noticed that last batch I got did result n few issues like pip etc etc. Like they say there only as good as there last batch...lol. Which leads me to remember there was few complaints on his last batches.
Sofar im very pleased with 1 of the 3 vendors I rolled the dice on. ..haha. Anyway every1 knows its all a gamble and only spend what u can afford. Not bragging but I ordered around 200 to 300 hundred on each vendor. I will b posting bloods after 8-10 weeks. Need to let that test E buildup prior to blood n my opinion. Wanna let our members know which vendor im using along with results. Also im not to confident n the vendors I know of except for the 1 im using now. I think its a hit or miss with the other 2 vendors that i eventually get around to. Its great when ppl post panel results I think. Will keep our members informed when the time comes n near future

Brand of gear will not make any difference , and accutane at a low dose is what I consider a reasonable risk.
Do your own research on it, i found plenty of Dr s and dermatologists that use it on themselves

Thank you. ..great point. Im always willing to learn experiment and especially take advice...its always a learning curve. Definitely not experienced to give advice...only receive at this point

Why brand won't make a difference? What if you got a shit brand that was fake and had oil instead of test? What if you were just injecting some random oil into your body? Wouldn't that make you break out? The source where you get your gear matter I would think.


What would be considered low dose for accutane?

Just Example. I take .5mg of arimidex EOD and that is low for me. I read for some .5mg EOD is considerably high. Some even take .5mg Every 3 days and some take 1mg every 5 days.

Just saying it varies person to person. So how would you determine the low dose for accutane?

Nice thread this is really informative bro. I'm ready to get pre cycle bloodwork done and bein's its my first cycle I'm only using Test E @500mg/week. I went on Labmd and saw all the tests but the names are really confusing. I'll only need the basics for the pre bloods, but for my mid cycle I'm sure I'll be above 1500 so I'll need the right test to see how things are going. I read through all the tests and a Female deluxe Hormone test, but that sucker was like 270.00 bucks. What's the actual name on Labmd's site for the test where a guy can see testosterone levels above 1500?
