Getting T levels tested next week

[EyeBRollin]

Clocked in at 595 total T.
the doc at the men’s clinic said he wouldn’t treat me since Im early 30s and my number is in normal range of the scale. I agreed to some extent.

Listen to the doc and don’t worry about this.

Im going to nut up start hitting the weights again and sleep earlier around 10pm.
Sometimes the depressive rut crawls up the skin and you just gotta shake it off, pick up your bundle and move the fvck on.

Oddly my estrogen was 40.3 a touch high. Doc is going to put me on a med to lower it.

I didn’t win the testosterone lottery. 800-1000 is where I want to be at tho.

I will get tested again next week just to get a baseline.
I haven’t worked out in 3 months. (Some lack of motivation)
Diet is homemade. I’m doing good on that.
drink only water and alot.
Sleep can be way better.
no real stressors in my life.
women are very rare in the moment and social life is ostracized and not where it once was.
I’m kind of rusting out touching grass reason I went to go get checked.

Any knowers of this know if I can bring that 595 up naturally?
some solid guidance would be appreciated take your shots

Damns that's no bueno, did you check the Free T levels? That's more important than the total. He will probably give you Arimidex

Not natural at those levels. I was feeling like $hit too before starting.

Same here, had my bloodwork done and while prolactine is on the lower side thankfully I have estrogens at 40 like you do which is within range but I believe given my far from optimal T levels (560) may be a problem...also shbg are on the higher range.

My biggest issue was vitamin D that was below the healthy range.

Jumping in here with my results.

Subjectively speaking I do not feel like I have high T at all.

My albumin, SHBG, and bioavailable T are not great. In my previous test, prolactin was high and E2 was just a bit above average.

Jumping in here with my results.

Subjectively speaking I do not feel like I have high T at all but I guess the #s don't lie. I did do the blood sample around 2pm so I don't know how much that skews things but these results are almost identical from my two tests from last year, one of which I took at 8am.

Either way, my albumin, SHBG, and bioavailable T are not great. I also know my prolactin levels are high. Maybe it all balances it out and maybe my low-t symptoms are indicative of something else. I did a full bloodwork panel as well and everything was optimal.

Your SHBG is high. Start taking liquid ionic boron to drop it. It's not allowing you to utilize your high T levels.

I take 12-24mg of boron per week. I even tried stinging nettle root. Maybe I could take more? The stuff is cheap at least.

Dr. Berg is not a doctor. He's a chiropractor.

He has a good appearance for his age. Better to be slim than fat but he talks too effeminate.

Most chiropractors I know are pretty jacked. I go see one once a month and it's helped me tremendously.

Also noticed something strange when I used to lift heavy weights...for a few days after I went to the Chiro I was able to lift heavier and in some cases easily set PRs if I was going for them that week whereas I had struggled to lift the same weight last time or sometimes even lighter weight.

I looked to see if this was all in my head but it turns out there was a study done that showed after Chiropractic treatment your body ends up being able to send signals down neurological pathways to your muscles more effectively and efficiently and it leads to greater strength output.

Stinging nettle and zinc are also very good for this as is DIM. DIM can be a little expensive so you can help increase levels by eating more broccoli.

just got tested 2 weeks ago. 670. Not terrible for a middle aged guy.

Not terrible?? These days that's good even for 18 year olds.

 

[Manure Spherian]

Clocked in at 595 total T.

You’re not hypogonadal and doing from near 600 to 800 isn’t going to do anything for you.

That's not bad. You should be able to increase this by at least 200 on your own, IMO.

Sleep is the one major overlooked factor that kills T levels. 7-8 hours a night is absolutely crucial as is creating a sleep routine and following it daily. They are equally important.

Refined sugar is a killer also...can drop circulating T levels by 25% almost immediately.

Does sugar lower testosterone?

Sugar's negative impact: health problems, weakness, aging, low motivation, fatigue. Surprisingly, sugar lowers testosterone levels. Beware the sweet tooth!

If you smoke, you should stop. Moderate levels of caffeine help increase T.

E is 23 now.

How did u decrease it?

Quality fat sources including both saturated fat and olive oil should be consumed regularly.

I assume you mean unsaturated fat, since there is no good reason to be increasing saturated fat intake. Saturated fat intake should be as low as possible, preferably less than 10% of total calories.

Sure there is, that's what cholesterol is made from and cholesterol is required for making testosterone.

Your crusade against saturated fats has been shown to be false for at least 15 years now in study after study. Time to give it up...doctors are even starting to realize it now and they usually take forever.
