Is 911 ng/dL enough or should i consider HRT ?

[RealMfknG]

Hey guys, i just got my bloodwork results today and it says i have 911 ng/dL testosterone (27 y.o M). I'm still natty for the moment, i just supplement with tongkat ali.

So i was wondering if my testosterone levels are good enough for building muscle or if i should consider supplementing with external testosterone or anything else to increase my test (they say in the bloodwork results that normal range is between 270 and 1700).

You’re fine

Your levels would make most guys envious. You're good. Don't take testosterone.

Jesus Christ, don't change a fucking thing. Shutting down test levels like that would be a shame.

Yup, you're good and many guys would be extremely happy to have that level without giving themselves shots twice a week and shutting down their natural production. You don't want TRT if you can avoid it; it's a lifetime commitment.

 

[FearThaGear]

That is higher than I have on TRT.

1100 ng/dl is the upper limit before your bloodwork starts getting an automatic "HIGH" flag. You're just fine.

 

[RealMfknG]

Thanks for the advice guys, guess i will stay natty for now.
i was about to buy some test online last year but i guess it's good that i gave up on that idea from what u guys just said.
I will try to keep my current test levels with proper sleep and not going too extreme on the calorie deficit. Will do bloodwork again in a few weeks.

His lab has a different range then what everyone else has. He is only middle of the normal range. The normal range at his lab goes up to 1700. I have used different labs over the years that the top of the range was any where from 600-1100. The number is only as good as the range it is being compared to.

911 is pretty low.

Do you find yourself craving plant-based meat substitutes and joining male feminist groups?

The range may be different but 911 ng/dL is still 911ng/dL which is extremely good naturally.

It says between 270 and 1734 for males between 20 and 49.

Not really. The labs calibrate their machines different and the standard that they calibrate them to can reflect differently. The same sample sent to a different lab will come back with a different number.

Getting different results from the same test? It might be more common — and less problematic — than you think. Here are some common reasons for variations.

Yup so you are in about the middle of what most men test at.
