I am 29 yrs old, 225 lbs, and hit the gym 5 times a week. I was diagnosed with low test about 1.5 years ago. The doc has had me try quite a few things and some have worked and some haven't. It has been a roller coaster ride to say the least. I am currently using 150mg/ml test, 1 ml per day, rubbed on my stomach. I also taske 20 mg HC everyday, 10mg am, 5mg at noon, and 5mg at 3pm. The doc has me on 15mcg of T3 that doesn't seem to be doing much. He recently gave me a script for HCG and after pricing it locally, I purchased some Hucog from ADC and have been running 400IU E3D. I recntly had labs done and I was pretty dissapointed. I feel pretty damn good but just a occasional ED. These labs were done by labcorp. I will post my last 3 recent labs.

This was after starting HCG for 6 weeks. This is the lowest test value I have ever had. Vitamin D is up from last test which is good. Supplimenting 18000 IU daily. TSH is up from previous test. DHT dropped drastically.
This was my baseline test before starting HCG. The only thing that changed was I added 1 5% androgel packet to bring me up to 200mg per day. I was also supplimenting with 7-keto DHEA 50 mg per day. These labs are not as detailed as the most recent test.

Albumin 4.2 ref 3.5-5.5
These labs were from 11/25/09. The only difference was I was using tribulus 3g per day. I am convinced that trib raises LH levels. I have multiple lab test that have shown this. This was before the doc gave me HC.

At the suggestion of some of the guys on here I also had some random test done on 1/4/10.

Zinc Serum 109 ref 70-150
Ferritin 211 ref 22-322

I am kind of at a loss as to what to do about the HCG. If anyone has some suggestions as to how to tweak my dose, I would appreciate the input. I would like to get on injectable test, I am going to ask the doctor about this soon. I need to get my RT3 down. I am thinking I will get some from ADC and start taking a larger dose. Any suggestions on dosage? I also had a pituitary MRI done and it came back clean. If anyone has some suggestions on any of this it would be appreciated.
