So just curious what a good practice is for regular bloodwork on when on trt. Every 3 months? Every 6? And what specifics to get and watch out for, RBC of course, anything else?

Once a year, once you find your proper HRT doses. Depending on how far off your hormones are; every 3 to 6 months while you are dialing in your treatment.
A full set of labs is best and watch for changes in all of them. The usual suspects would be RBC, E2, SHBG, free and total T. All of the indicators are important and the more meds you take the more they can effect other areas.

If money is no problem, this would be ideal.
e2 and TT can be done cheap,
Shbg tends to stay constant in majority of cases
t-4, Ft3 and ft4 is all that is needed for thyroid when on meds

for older guys I go after t and e2 stabilization then watch the thyroid function as HRT gets balanced because some time it may go down then return to normal over time. As long as symptoms are alleviate I suggest to ride it out, if symptoms come back after 4-5 months get e2 tested and ft3, ft4, t4 TT is pretty much constant.

In some (like myself) using T can raise hemocrate levels and may require regular blood letting. I donate to Red Cross regularly and that is enough to keep my levels at an acceptable range.

I think I will be ordering the following test soon. SHBG is not included and mine was elevated on last 2 tests. However, considering my extreme stress level this past yr and especially now, I feel ok. Not good, but ok.

If your RBC's are elevated BUT your hematocrit is within normal range, is that ok?

In some (like myself) using T can raise hemocrate levels and may require regular blood letting. I donate to Red Cross regularly and that is enough to keep my levels at an acceptable range.

What effect does a high red blood cell count have on the body?
In: Conditions and Diseases, Blood [Edit categories]



Answer
high red cells can increase the delivery of oxygen to your tissues, and can make you feel full of energy. However, past a point, the increased number of cells in your blood causes the blood to become thickened and kinda gluggy. This puts a HUGE strain on the heart, and can cause heart attacks and heart failure.

Do not consider taking hormones such as EPO (erythropoietin) to increase your red cells- it is a dangerous practice and is illegal in sports and in the courts (it is a prescription medicine only).

Altitude training provides enough stimulus for the body to increase blood cells to get the beneficial effects, but not enough to cause the adverse effects (provided it is done responsibly). Hope this helps!



Definition
By Mayo Clinic staff

A high red blood cell count indicates an excess of red blood cells circulating in your bloodstream. Red blood cells (erythrocytes, or RBCs) are produced in your bone marrow and transport oxygen from your lungs to tissues throughout your body. A high red blood cell count is also called erythrocytosis (uh-rith-roh-sie-TOH-sis).

The threshold for a high red blood cell count is somewhat different from one medical practice to another. A high red blood cell count is generally defined as more than 5.72 million red blood cells per microliter (mcL) of blood for men and 5.03 million per mcL for women. In children, the threshold for high red blood cell count varies with age and sex.


Causes
By Mayo Clinic staff

A high red blood cell count may occur because:

Red blood cell production increases to compensate for low oxygen levels due to poor heart or lung function The kidneys release too much of a protein (erythropoietin, or EPO) that enhances red blood cell production The bone marrow is producing too many red blood cells The oxygen-carrying capacity of red blood cells is impaired Red blood cell production increases to compensate for limited oxygen at higher altitudes The loss of blood plasma, the liquid component of blood, creates relatively high levels of red blood cells Specific causes of high red blood cell count may include:

Anabolic steroids, which stimulate red blood cell production Congenital heart disease COPD Dehydration EPO doping (injections of erythropoietin (EPO) to enhance athletic performance) Heart failure Hemoglobinopathies (conditions present at birth that impair the oxygen-carrying capacity of red blood cells) Kidney cancer Kidney transplant Living at a high altitude, where there's less oxygen in the air Other types of heart disease Other types of lung disease Polycythemia vera Pulmonary fibrosis Smoking, which may result in low blood oxygen levels

Dehydration is common with high RBC and hemocrit. I have dr's patients retest next blood work to rule it out drinking 16 oz water prior to blood test.

I wish I could afford more tests Janz but let me explain

I know haven't posted for a few months and my excuse is I have been very busy.

A year and a half ago my doctor told me to eliminate as many stressors as I could. Well some things can't be explained rationally.
It could be Karma, but if I believed that I would have to of been a real SOB at some time in my past. So I'm going with the old antaige;"you'll never be given more than you can handle" and "when one door closes another opens".

Its hard to lead a stress free life when. ( in order of occurrences)

Wife has surgery to remove cancerous breast growth.
Wife wreaks motorcycle (drifter) No comp ins.
Wife wreaks motorcycle (Harley)
Company truck wreaked when opposing traffic crosses lane and causes a near head on.
Investigator filled out paperwork wrong so having to sue to get compensated. (no comp ins)
Wife kills suicidal pedestrian in traffic accident, then suffers massive heart attack.
Had to repair work truck w/o comp insurance.
Wife started have seizures and is on massive doses of Dilantin for control.
Step daughter wreaks motorcycle (Harley)
Mother in law moves in and has Alzhiemers.
After 40 yrs of service the Post Office contacted me a month ago and canceled my contract with 60 days notice.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As I was writing this the P.O. contacted me and modified my route with a new contract. Whew......
Lets see what these tests show and maybe I will be able to get more in a couple of months.

Jansz I do not know how medicare or your insurance have not declined our tests because they are medical unnecessary according to standards of many insurances. It just going to be a matter of time. We are getting hammered with insurance companies rejecting claims even with the proper diagnosis codes with nedical neccessity.

I've been on TRT for over 5 years and I still do it twice a year.
First couple years may be ok but after a while there is a good chance that
pregnenolone and progesterone will tank.

Pregnenolone is made from cholesterol.
Cholesterol is carried by HDL and LDL LipoProteins, but only cholesterol that is in LDL is being converted.
To convert cholesterol--->pregnenolone
we need
ACTH, LH & FSH

Being on TRT, specially for prolonged time reduces LH and FSH to zero.

That is one reason why production of pregnenolone tanks.

Lack of pregnenolone have a dire consequences.
Most often we talk about Adrenal Fatigue, which is not Fatigue at all.
But it results in Low FreeCortisol.
That is a cortisol which can be measured by saliva testing.

There is many people on Adrenal Fatigue for their own reasons, but we are creating it to ourselves by using Testosterone.

When we need testosterone we do not have much choice,
but
we have to know what we are doing by taking testosterone
and
take preventive measures.

If low, Pregnenolone can be supplemented.

Some people are already doing it.
99% that supplementation is worthless.
Pregnenolone must be supplemented
very frequently
using only excellent product

The only pregnenolone that works is very high density in Lipoderm base.

Many compounding pharmacies can do what we need.
I have found best deal (below).
If someone finds better deal, please let me know, I am always short of $$.

Important note, it must be loaded into Topi-Click.
That is a tool to dispense accurate dose and to spread it on skin without loosing any even smallest amount of cream.
================================
I spread pregnenolone on my neck, progesterone on my thigh.
Always same location, no need for additional washing other than usual.
Keep skin clean, Lipoderm transports any junk better than DMSO does.

Guys working in dust, welders, (painters?), chemical lab technicians,
probably should not use this.
================================
Last dose, bedtime, is better when instead of pregnenolone
progesterone is used, unless you newer had any prostate issue.
Divide any thyroid hormones into equal portions per each preg dose,

For christ sakes, I have better things to do then to set my alarm clock to take meds, people at work think you are fkn nuts !!

I be stressed out trying to fit this on top of seeing, training, phone consults,working out myself, returning emails, time on forum.

Why do not you take thyroid hormones and testosterone once a month.
It would be much less intrusive.

I am in the process of working on taking none of it to tell you the truth...
I am already off hcg and adex, cortef,
waiting for nutraeval results then I will recalibrate from there.

Already pulled several people off HRT and are doing fine..

Being a human sponge and pin cushion is not my idea of fun :blink:

i am sure the vast majority will agree ...
