Great example that appears to conform to the requirements necessary to use the data.
Back pics , one no pump , other with. Blood work on Tuesday, will update

Congrats
@SirNipples . To make sure, you were using no hCG on the last test, correct? Any other AAS / orals in the mix? Do you have SHBG for later testing round?
You will be my first data point for MesoRx members. Great handle to have on the chart. Thank you.
I will write up the example on how the data gets charted soon. Any of you 1+ g users I would like to use your data if you are testing blood accurately and preferably running solo Test. But no worries just disclose what you are using and make sure you do LCMS for TT and FT by ED if possible. Then we can make this into a FT tool as well.
$39 for accurate TT/FT but you would need to order SHBG separately. Disclosure: no financial conflict of interest but DiscountedLabs has a great price. That is what I use (via Quest).
If I was thinking ahead I would be collecting E2 and DHT as well but dose response curves have already been done in the literature and I am doing this all for free so even I have limits. I will continue on work the TT tool and hopefully FT tool here.
Btw: Data from SirNips via Quest linked above
TT 2119 ng/dl
FT 63 ng/dl
Using prior SHBG of 23 nmol/l
CFTV calculates FT = 70.5 ng/dl
About 12% difference (positive bias) which is typical even with physiological data
@Type-IIx
CFTV is a great tool with well behaved bias across SHBG range.
TruT gives 81 ng/dl.
A comprehensive review here for more meager Test levels....
The idea of SHBG as a sponge that sucks up large amounts of testosterone and leaves your free T low doesn't seem to be how it really works. The way I understand it, high SHBG makes your meager production (revealed by the free T) look like it's normal or even high when it isn't. The SHBG is...
