"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.

I’m going to schedule my yearly physical and will have blood work done.
What bloodwork tests should I ask for for my hormone levels to be evaluated?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Sorry just saw this.

Off the top of my head, IDEALLY, you’re going to want:

CMP
CBC
total testosterone
Free testosterone
Estradiol
DHT
PSA
Lipid panel
C-reactive protein (total body inflammation)
Fasted glucose levels
Fasted insulin
IGF-1
Cortisol
Vitamin D3 levels (25-hydroxy vitamin D blood test)

This is pretty much everything.


If you’re trying to save some cash, and just want to know your hormones, then just check:

Total testosterone
Free testosterone
Estradiol
DHT
PSA

But I highly recommend you include everything I suggested in the first panel. The body is a complicated thing. And everything’s related. Hope this helps.

P.S. a lot of doctors have a god complex and will try to argue with you. Don’t waste your breath. Either find another doctor, or go thru one of those private online blood panel sites. U pay, pick what u want tested, they email u the order, and then u take it to labcorp. They’ll email you the results. Then you can take those to a COMPETENT endo.

Feel free to bring them to me as well if u wish. But I am NOT a doctor. Just a guy that knows stuff.

Run a complete panel. Just make sure they use a lab that is in your network. It can be quite costly if they use an out of network lab.

make sure you check with your insurance about the free test check. That is one that is not covered by a lot of insurance and can be very costly.
