there are thousands of factors that can suppress or increase test production from diet to sunlight. so of course it will vary among individuals as it did for yourself. scientifically speaking from a physiological standpoint, they peak in the late 20s with variability as mentioned above. i have not seen any of the research you speak of.
if your referring to a blood test for why your test levels are higher or lower with age, there are many confounding factors as i stated above and that is not a valuable means for comparison. after all, your not 30 yet either so you havent seen the drop off yet.Last edited by michael3435; 04-17-2009 at 11:07 AM.

Never had T-levels taken, but I had blood test taken today out of curiosity for just that reason. Finished some t-bol about a month ago, so now I pretty good base for about what my normal test levels should be. When I run my next cycle in the fall (non PH and undecided at this point) I will report back with lab results, now that I have some sort of a base.

theres a lot of variation, day to day, week to week.
I was at exactly 320 myself, went back a few weeks later...600
don't worry too muchRealize that anyone with an affiliation to a supplement company in their signature has ulterior motives when making recommendations. They're primarily concerned with pushing their products. Not your safety or what's best for you.

I had a physical and had it checked because of energy and libido problems,it ws at 190,my general doctor sent me to a urologist and he started giving me injections of 1cc every other week for 10 shots,then checked it again and it brought my levels up to 450,in the middle of the range,then a month later of not taking injections from him,i had it checked again,it had dropped from 450 to 197,so i went to an Endocronologist,and my testicles are smaller than they are supposed to be and he ran some test,he uped my dose to 2cc's every other week,because of my size.He said i waited to long to get my levels checked in the first place when i was younger,so ive got to take injections from my doctor the rest of my life,because my body will not produce it anymore,when my levels were up,i felt gret,energy was high and libidio was high,when they were low,just the oppesite.Over the years my testicles shrank because my body was not producing it naturally,and i was 41 when i got it checked for the first time.

You should try ethanate not sure on the spelling, stays in you longer. Think cypionate starts to drop after 3 days. 2 cc, dont know how long you been on that but it should be higher. I was on 2cc for a few months and got to 700 or so but my liver enzymes were getting high so I had to back off to 1.5 every 2 weeksbig is bad!!
