*** 23 year old Bloodwork help***

[Redrum123]

Have had huge issues puting on muscle over the last dedicated couple years and so i went in and decided to get bloodwork done * have never cycled* and the doctor said for my age my testosterone levels are low, but to you guys how " low " are they really?

Testosterone Total: 387 (300-1080)
Testosterone Free% 2.2 (1.6-2.9)
Testosterone Free 85 (47-244)
Binding gobulin 23 (11-80)

Any insight would be great!

I would try to raise it naturally through exercise (not overtraining), eating properly (not calorie restricting), and minimizing anything that raises E2.

Your levels don't seem low enough for HRT for life. Also, you must get retested before anything, levels can vary a lot.

Thanks, I have now been tested twice, these were the highest levels.

Not talking about TRT and never mentioned it, asking for your interpretations and how low this is? How hard is it to build muscle at these levels, and how I would build muscles with a " average " level of testosterone.

Phil, how effective would something like this be? What kind of results should I expect?

Your results will vary... but the blood work I saw from someone from this board his levels just about doubled from approximately 400 to 800 ng/dl. If you do go that route I'm interested to see all the actual blood work I can.

TP is doing a big promotion for the next week to get 100 grams of DAA(about a months supply) if you purchase 100 dollars of product.

Id get my Estrogen levels tested also.

what all was he doing? and can you send a link to the daa.

**broken link removed**


I believe he was doing a normal dosing of DAA for about 4 weeks, some other supps as well but nothing that should have much impact on test levels.

It wasn't a double blind placebo study but these things never are.

1.) Have you ever done any pro-hormones?

2.) If not, then that is your true natty levels which are normal for someone in their 50's. You guys who recommened stuff like dasparic acid, humanofort,etc... that could help but wouldnt he need to stay on it forever? If so would a simple shot of 150mg cyp per week be way easier, cheaper and give him a far better quality of life.
