+ 3 Blood work Question

ad

I have a couple blood work questions. More along the lines of what lab to take when.

I've taken the hormone panel for females which showed e2 total test and the other things I needed.

My question is the female panel maxes out at 1500 and the test that I was looking at that give you actual test over 1500 don't look like they show e2.

Vets what lab test do I need to take to show total and free test and e2. I use PrivateMdlabs

Thanks

This site uses Quest diagnostics for testing. The total test level is not capped in the Female hormone panel. You can check out my labs from them (2 posted) to see everything that's covered in the panel.

I want to go get a lab done tomorrow so I can pin Monday. Just didn't want to get the same test as last time that doesn't show free but I do want estrogen.

what compounds are you running?

Reddirtmuscle's picture

I haven't started but I'm going to Monday and I'm going to run test e and proviron.

Test E 500 week for 12 weeks
Provi 25mg morning 25mg night
Normal PCT
100/40 100/40 50/20 50/20

I really want to know my free test before cycle so I can really see how my body reacts to the Provi. But the test I see don't show free and estrogen. Unless you spend $200. I'm trying to avoid this. There is $90 test but it says it only shows total and free and Mc/ms but I was wondering if it will show e2?

To really assess the provi you will need to get a baseline while on cycle. Once you inject exogenous test your free test will rise so just doing that alone without any provi will show an increase in free T compared to your baseline off cycle.

it sounds like HORMONE PANEL WITH F&T TESTOSTERONE LC/MS-MS is the panel you're looking for. when you're on Cycle and get mid Cycle bloods pulled it's a good idea to choose the panel that will give your psa levels as well.

just out of curiosity,what is your body fat at?
