Testosterone and T4 Test

Hey yall, I posted on here about wanting to try TRT a while back and folks told me to stop drinking alcohol and start eating clean. So I have done that.

I just had my doctor test my Test Total and T4, because hypothyroidism runs in the family. I did, and they called me and told me my Total Test is 526 ng/l and T4 is 1.2.
I'm 32. I work out regularly and do alot of cardio.

With the range considered normal on test at my age considered like 425-865 it says, and T4 being 0.4-4.0. The T4 seems super low. There is a men's health clinic in town that advertises TRT and HGH, but would a doctor give me TRT with 526? Should I even get on TRT at 526? Should I supplement T4?

Currently i'm taking 5iu Meditrope daily, low dose igf lr3 20mg IM bilaterally into worked out muscle group, and of course whey and casein protein, PMD Insanity pre-workout. No prohormones of any kind.

P.S. I asked my doctor to test my levels and I assumed he would test for prolactin and estro profiles, but he did not.

You probably will not get a script with any of those levels. What is your goal in trying to get on?

I have already hit all the limits of my body in terms of moving up weight. Now that I have added significant cardio workouts on my off days, my lifts have gone down and I it just seems like im maintaining what I have. Maybe as my BF % gets lower, my natural T will go up and I'll make progress?

Large amounts of aerobics will more likely drive your natural T levels down.

Why do you want to be on TRT. Your natural levels are good.

Beside the gentetics of Thyroid problems in your family...Your T4 ( Thyroxine) can be low due to the use of HGH ...Legit HGH will convert T4 to T3 showing low in Blood work
