First even blood test

[Janet_Girl]

I finally had my blood tested with my new doctor.  Estrogen is <50.  And my T is 5.  All in all, pretty good.  But she is checking with another doctor as I am her first Transpatient.  And she might be changing my regime once she looks into it.

However my cholesterol is 175, so it is back onto the Lipitor.  I figure it would happen.

If my T was only at 5 my doc would yank my spiro script.

that is one of the blessings of an Orchidectomy.

well mine is only 0.7 so you have a healthy level.

Strangely enough I don't have any noticable loss of libido with it being that low

Is common knowledge to only use one set of units on Susans for blood tests

[Janet_Girl]

Generally they are measured as nanograms per milliliter or nano-moles per liter, depending on what your country uses.

In either case a Testosterone level of 5 nmol/L is a bit past the upper limits for females, and 5 ng/d is quite a bit below the lower limit.

I am operating under the asumtion you are talking ng/dl Janet?

[Janet_Girl]

I am assuming so because she said everything was good although she was a little concerned about the E.  She is looking at it as she would any woman, even though she knows that I am TS.
