First of all, hello everyone. This site has been very informative as i have done much research. My question is on my recent blood test. I am 26, and did my last Test only cycle about a year ago. My results came back in Pg/mL instead of ng/dl. It was 10.7 Pg/ML. "Normal reference range" is 9.3-26.5 Pg/Ml. Should i be worried in that it is so "low normal"????

how do you feel? if you feel normal then I wouldn't worry about it. if it came back that low and you don't plan on going back on go to your doctor for options. you are kind of young but they still might be willing to do some sort of supplement program with you to get you back up or their are natural alternatives (i can't remember them off the top of my head).Originally posted by UshouldCmy View Post -
like stone said, it is a bit low but not so low that it would cause problems.
do you plan on going back on again?
something else to consider is your lifestyle and diet. that can have a huge roll in test levels. if you are under a bunch of stress at work, home etc, you can significantly lower your natural test levels.
by the way, welcome to the board. :)Comment

thanks guys. I feel ok, no sexual problems. The thing is, I talked with the PA over the phone and she said everything checked out ok, so i of course did not make another appt. I picked up the results today and reviewed them on my own and that's when i noticed the test values.
I have been under some stress, nothing major, but have noticed some decreased ms. mass. I weight train 3-4 days per wk and frankly don't want to con't to work out without gaining lean mass. I started a prescription of finasteride in Jan...i was under the impression that one side effect would actually be an increase in free test since the DHT conversion site is blocked. Makes me wonder, do you think my free test was even lower before i started this?Comment

if it was the difference was small i am sure. best bet may just be to run a cycle again.Originally posted by UshouldCmy View PostComment
