Blood Work Questions DHEA etc

[matt3383]

Hey guys,

So i got my bloods done and went to talk to the doctor about the results.

Free Test was around 450
DHEA was 140, range was i think 80-1600 something
My vitamin D was very low

Everything else was decent.
The doctor said they could prescribe TRT for me but im not 100% sure i am ready to start that at 33 years old lol. They do shots of Test-C and would start me off at 200mg per week.

Is there any real reason for me to take a DHEA supplement? Ive been trying my google kung fu on DHEA and it all seems to be bro science and any real testing results ive found seem to conclude its not worth it. But since my bloods show mine as low maybe this is something i should take?

Vitamin D is easy, i already have some 5000iu pills i will start taking daily per the doctors suggestion.

Also I am on LGD atm, I am on week 2 and the bloods were taken back in March while i was not on anything.

Your still in normal range, free test is not a solid number like you said. Free range will be like 5-20 something small like that.. So what you were looking at was total testosterone and most normal range goes from 348-1197 for lab corp. Depends on who did the bloodwork. If your doctor is already willing to put you on trt, then consider it.

If not, get more blood work and get another panel but look at free, total, Lh, fsh, and estrogen just for the hell of it.

Then make your decision.

AH yes your right, that was total not free. Is free Test the important number everyone building muscle is looking for or is it total?
