Title: First bloodwork back - 2 months
Post by: patrick1967 on January 10, 2017, 06:56:15 PM
Well i think even my doc was shocked by the quick response my body has had to T. My T levels went from <3 to 496 in 2 months, my glucose dropped out of the prediabetes range and my cholestorol is down. Think my body really likes this stuff lol

That's good; my cholesterol was problematic too - a result of low T and E levels just prior to starting T.

Having low levels of everything seemed to make the body immediately respond to T. Some of the feeling better might just be because being on low everything feels like slow death, lol.

Mine went the same way! Was pleasantly surprised to see the improvement in cholesterol. I was fairly bloated the first few months on T and felt like I was getting fatter, so it was a welcome surprise.
