Im going to get bloods done at my doc tomorrow. Im 2 months out of pct and want to check everything out before next cycle. Im planning on getting total and free test done, estrogen, progestin, fsh, lh, liver enzymes, prostate values, and kidney values. Anything else that would really help me know if im back to 100%?

j223 has a point. But, you're still at your doctor if the Private MD Lab panel shows something way out of whack that advice on this board is not gonna settle and u need a referral to an endo, etc. But, that said, under no circumstances admit to self administering AAS. You could end up without a doc and not be able to get health insurance at any premium level.

I wouldn't ask for anything or your doctor would wonder why.

go privatemdlabs.com and order the tests yourself anonymously

If using a testosterone cream please be sure you have not rubbed any into the antecubital area of your arm for the last 24 hours as it can give elevated results. For accurate test results, no ejaculation during the 24 hours preceding the test.
