How to read your Hormone Panel Results
So with all of the amazing advice I have achieved here in just a few weeks one of the main suggestions by the guys/girls that know what they are doing, was so have blood work done. Upon further research and to cut this short privatemdlabs.com has a perfect panel called
Hormone Panel for Males. I already paid the 170 and plan on going either tomorrow or the next day depending on fasting etc. The description is below that shows everything that is tested for. The only thing i cant seem to find through some research is where our levels for each of these tests should be. Im a male so im speaking from my point of view on levels. Being that most of us on this forum are on some type of gear or supplement what are the highs and lows for each of these? Is there a site that can list everything? Or someone that knows suggested levels. I think I have already hit my weekly limit of mass messages to Tread (Thanks again buddy) plus I also feel that many others on here may benefit from knowing this info as well.
Since im currently cutting with Test, Var, HGH and PEPS, Im thinking the main ones for my purpose are....
Free test levels
Estradiol
Igf-1
T-4
Thanks again guys.

As far as I am aware you personal readings will be displayed along side the "normal" readings so you can compare.
AnonTestosterone -(2.86 - 15.10)
Free Testostrone (4.50 - 42.00)
Dehydrotestosterone -(250 - 990)
Prolactin -(2.1 - 17.7)
Estradiol -(19.0 - 56.0)
Progresterone ng/ml -(0.27 - 0.90)
SHBG -(13 - 71)
DHEA-S -(7.60 - 17.40)
These are the optimal levels for the hormone panel. The regular MHP panel measures seven hormones: DHEA, androstenedione, testosterone, dihydrotestosterone, estrone, estradiol and progesterone. The expanded panel measures these seven hormones plus FSH and LH. The hormone levels in saliva reflect the active tissue concentrations, while blood contains mostly protein- bound hormones, whose active levels can only be estimated at best. Urine contains both the active hormones and numerous metabolites and can only provide a gross estimate of hormone production over time.
Also any info on thyroid and igf levels?

Is this the same hormone panel from the website I mentioned or just a typical hormone panel?
AnonOh, I didn't check the website. But essentially, you will see your results-and then the range/value's next to it to let you know where you stand.
i dont know if the results show normal levels. That would be perfect and defeat the purpose for this thread haha. I didnt think about that one. Thanks again bud for your info.
Anonalmost 100% positive when saying that they do
Well thats good enough for me haha. J/K. I guess ill find out when i get the results back but i wanted to have a heads up just incase they didnt have normal levels posted. Well i have been on this site for 3 hours now so im off to bed. Night brother.
