Thread: First blood work, Advice appreciated

3200 @ 500 is pretty damn good! It does depend on body weight as well. More body mass = more blood and it will take more testosterone to reach the same level in a larger volume of blood. I average around 230lb and know that I used to test higher when I was below 200lb.

The total test numbers are a little low from what I usually test at. At 500mg I am usually 2500+ but everyone is a bit different. Also people pin differently. If he draws up exactly 1mL at 250mg/mL then by the time the pin gets changed and injection completed it could be 0.9mL actually entering the body. I know I always draw strong or slightly overshoot my goal dose because of the small loss during pinning. I don't remember the exact W.H.O./C.D.C. numbers but they actually published a study on loss when the 1mL vials became standard in hospitals and medical offices.

Thank you very much for explaining that. I actually do try to draw exactly to the mL. Could definitely be contributing to the number on the lower side of things. And thank you very much for all of your other detailed comments and advice.

Which in turn makes it even. So I figure if you draw to 1mL there is some in the plastic and below.

And I see you did mention that and I agree with you either 12.5 ed or 25 eod. Personally I'd order the same exact shit different lab and run results. I always test around 32 or so at 500. Seems a grand lower seems way off but maybe I'm wrong.

Thanks for your comments. I really thought my total Test would be higher. I did get my gear from a reputable source on this board. So it's a very good chance it's something to do with my body or something I am doing wrong due to my inexperience. I did not get pre cycle bloods so I definitely wouldn't want to jump to conclusions and accuse a sponsor of underdosed gear. I am getting results so I am not pissed or unhappy. I will take your advice and try same dose from a new source next cycle though. Thanks again!
