Help lower before blood draw
ad
Of course these level are off due to my testosterone levels being high...next test is in 2 months...Any thing else I can do besides what I've stated below that can help regulate the number so my doc can lay off my a**
Pre lab draw I could have been dehydrated maybe ...and I wasn't taking aspirin at that time.
Total test- 1351 NG/NL
RBC- 5.86
hemoglobin- 17.1
hematocrit- 51.6
ferritin- iron saturation 14.4L
What I do now
Drink water. 1-1.5 gallons a day
81mg aspirin per day.

Your #s aren't that bad. Your trt doc.may lower your dose but your blood levels aren't bad enough for them to do anything. The plasma donation and blood.donation places allow up to 55 usually so your good even there I wouldn't even worry at these levels
Ranger3252Get a therapeutic phlebotomy, stop taking test 30 days before testing (going to suck) and pound the H2o. Asprin will not lower HCT NO MATTER WHAT ANYONE TELLS YOU. This is a fairy tale. The only benefit In PV and PT, aspirin has been shown to specifically eliminate the micro-circulatory and vasomotor manifestations and there is some evidence of a reduction in larger vessel occlusion. Low-dose aspirin has been shown to substantially reduce the raised thromboxane A2 production of platelets in PV and PT patients.
The most common treatment for polycythemia vera is having frequent blood withdrawals, using a needle in a vein (phlebotomy). It's the same procedure used for donating blood. This decreases your blood volume.
Ranger3252Here is a decent article, also if you have medical experience at home phlets can be accomplished safely. I have given many to myself, This is not something anyone should do without medical experience.https://www.discountedlabs.com/blog/testosterone-induced-high-red-blood-...
1351 is way over and go to red cross to donate. Hydrate. Quit overusing test.
Over donating will boost rbc etc. Whys your test so high? Recent cycle or ?
That was a recent cycle on cycle at 400mg a week on cyp
I thought you just got a delivery of Test, Tren and Anadrol mate? Have you not started those yet?
This is an old post... nothing to do with what I got now...
Your trying to lower RBC? If so, go donate but it's really not that high. Add electrolytes to your water.
Just trying to lower RBC, HCT, HGB
The numbers are just at the top of the "DOC" scales...so he's "super" concerned...that's why I posted to get the number lower even if I drops 1.5...I realize the numbers are not overly high but to the PC it is...so to get him off me in a lack of better terms that's why I made the post.
I'll try adding electrolytes to my water..
It's a yearly physical with my PC which once I get this lower and he's happy...I won't be doing any labs with the doc I'll just go to lab corp.
Donate then or lower your test
Could I donate a day prior or day off
Even two weeks prior is fine
Ok...thanks...and on that note I should donate more often in general
But @Jockstrap is right so remember, too often can higher it. Just because the redcross app says its time to donate, you judge your own timing
The body always knows and pushes to be balance.
