1 year on blood work
Hey everyone,
February will be my 1 year anniversary of starting TRT. I’m currently administering Wednesday, Friday, Sunday. My total weekly dosage is 160mg. Additionally, I use HCG at 500iu twice a week on Wednesday/sunday. I do my blood work on Wednesday mornings before my injections.
I’ve been on this protocol for nearly 12 months with blood work every 3 months. My blood work has always come back with my total test (950-1200) and my free test (155-250). My estrogen is generally (35-39).
However, this time around my total and free test have skyrocketed from any of my previous test. My estrogen went up too as expected with the other results.
CBC/CMP mostly looked good. The only other elevation I had was my hemoglobin went up to 17.3 (ref range: 13.2-17.1).
I don’t meet with my doctor until early March. Thinking I’m going to decrease my dosage some, but would love to hear your thoughts.
Additional information: Little to no changes in diet, no changes in medication, I have increased my amount of sleep from 6 hours to 8 hour every night. Work/life stress is low. I do take min/fin for hair, but I’ve been on that for 18 months. My libido has been good/decent until early/mid December.
