Hi all,
I just received my lab results taken one month after switching to my new sub-Q protocol:
62.5mg sub-Q T enanthate 2 X week (total 125mg EW) + 250IU sub-Q HCG 2X week (total 500IU EW).
both injected at the same evening, each of them in a different place in the abdomen.
I’m 23, healthy and trying eating healthy - low carbs/high protein/moderate good fats.
eating 200 grams of cruciferous vegetables every day (broccoli/cleavage).
supplementing daily with fish oil, vit C, multivitamin (no iron), zinc, magnesium, TMG, creatine, MSM, & 5000IU vit-d.
training regularly in the gym.
blood was taken on 10/02/2014, the morning of my scheduled day for the first weekly evening injection:

a few questions came up:
-
ESTRADIOL -it is way above normal range! what should i do? i thought that SC injection should lower it.
is Arimidex/anastrozole the only solution? what exactly should I ask my doc, and what is the recommended dosage? -
I currently have no place to get an AI, would taking dim(diindolylmethane) or Indole-3-carbinol may help?
-
should I consider changing my protocol (HCG dosage/frequency)?
-
HEMATOCRIT - very high. with androgel I never got those high numbers.
does it mean I must donate blood? is it a regular donation or RBC only donation? I never done this before.
are there other ways of decreasing it? -
HEMOGLOBIN -very high too. is it correlated with HEMATOCRIT? same questions for it.
-
DHEA SO4 - it is almost bellow range, what does that indicate? should I look into it?
-
how are my T / FREE ANDROGEN INDEX / SHBG values?
-
lastly - what do my TSH/T3/T4 indicate about my thyroid?
from measurements I took for a week I’m getting 36.0 celsius (96.8 fahrenheit) every morning in bed before getting up.
am I iodine deficient? noting again that I’m eating 200 grams of cruciferous vegetables each day (which may interfere with iodine intake).
sorry I have so many questions,
I appreciate any help.
