Well I'm 42 years old and have never done a full blood test until recently and I am very happy with my natural numbers. I used my HSA which I need to spend before the calendar year is up to run these tests and get an idea of where I am at. Currently the TRT doctor is recommending a Clomid, DHEA/Pregnenolone and injectable B vitamin protocol to bring me up into the higher end of the normal range. I honestly need to lose about 40lbs of fat as I am definitely over 20% body fat. So I hope with this protocol I can bring my numbers in the upper end of the normal range. Combine with the weight lose I need to and will be making I should see numbers in the higher range. I will be retesting in 6 weeks to see how things are going with this protocol. My only concern is pushing my estradiol above the normal range because of my high body fat but I will most likely be incorporating DIM into this protocol to assist with minimizing conversion. I'd say I really don't need to do anything other then continue to diet (lose the body fat) and exercise but I am more then happy to try this protocol and see if and how things improve. What are your guys thoughts about someone in my ranges following such a protocol simply to combat the aging process etc?
