With TRT, LH/FSH should -->zero.
Please explain. Are you using a SERM or labs? And E2 tested at that same time? Why were you taking Clomid on TRT?
Thyroid is now your major problem.
fT3 is the only active thyroid hormone and it is well below mid-range.
rT3 may be high, we see some lab companies with much lower ranges. With your exercise program and thyroid problems we do expect to see rT3 elevated.
Please provide your history of using iodized salt.
What mcg of iodine and selenium in your multi-vits? - history
Low thyroid function drives fat gain.
With your thyroid issues most perceivable benefits of TRT will be lost.
You need AM Cortisol done at 8AM or one hour after waking.
Less progesterone please.
Post CBC blood data with ranges.
Dextroamphetamine can stress adrenals. Was cortisol low at that time?
Thyroid: You need medication. Do not take T4 only medication. Do not take T4+T3 medication. Get on 25mcg T3 sustained release and take in AM. When you do thyroid labs, do labs before taking T3. This T3 SR is a compounding pharmacy only item in USA. You need to depress TSH do there is less T4 production, then there is less fT3–>rT3. Your T4 is also low, if you take T4, rT3 will increase.

Evaluate your overall thyroid function by checking oral body temperatures as per the thyroid basics sticky. Thyroid hormone fT3 is what gets the job done and it regulates mitochondrial activity, the source of ATP which is the universal currency of cellular energy. This is part of the body’s temperature control loop. This can get messed up if you are iodine deficient. In many countries, you need to be using iodized salt. Other countries add iodine to dairy or bread.

I can be a bit abrupt in my replies and recommendations. I have a lot of ground to cover as this forum has become much more active in the last two years. I can’t follow threads that go deep over time. You need to respond to all of my points and requests as soon as possible before you fall off of my radar. The worse problems are guys who ignore issues re thyroid, body temperatures, history of iodized salt. Please do not piss people off saying that lab results are normal, we need lab number and ranges.
The value that you get out of this process and forum depends on your effort and performance. The bulk of your learning is reading/studying the suggested stickies.
