Cholesterol and Hemoglobin Down during cycle?

[Butch_C]

I went in to donate blood Saturday as it is common for my Iron, Hemoglobin and Hematocrit levels to climb even on TRT doses of test. I do this every 8 weeks. The blood bank test a few basic parameters but doesn't break them down completely. I am on my first real cycle taking 575 per week of Test-c and 300Mg pw of NPP. I got results I was not expecting on the basic blood profile. I fully expected my hemoglobin to be higher than normal as well as my Cholesterol. Both were lower than normal before blood donation. I am on average about 18.5 on hemoglobin, Saturday I was 16.3 and Normally about 165 total cholesterol and Saturday I was 110 total. I have been taking 4 fish oil per day, Tudca and P5P. I can see the fish oil helping the Cholesterol some but I am starting to wonder if my UGL stuff is legit or my body works the opposite of most. Any opinions.

Check your hormone profile and see where test levels are at

I am going to get blood work. I am going to use privatemdlabs unless someone has a better option. Does the male hormone panel from quest at 181.49 do the uncapped testosterone and sensitive estrogen? From what I am reading it does but I just want to make sure I read it right.

Labs came back. I find it odd that My total cholesterol is now lower than what my LDL alone use to be. I assumed my HDL would drop, which it did but did not expect to drop LDL.
