Can medical tests for cycles be prioritised?

Hey guys

I've been looking into medical tests that I'd want to take before, during and after a cycle. The cycle would probably only consist of 500mg/wk of enan/cyp for 10-12 weeks, no orals.

Below are a few costs for various checks. You'll have to excuse my ignorance if they seem expensive, cheap or the norm as I don't have much experience with this sort of thing. I know you can't put a price on our health, but this will be expensive - especially if I'm planning on three of each.

This leads me onto my question: Is it necessary to get 'the full works' when testing ones body with cycles, or do we only need only a few specific tests to really tell us how things are going?

It would be good if any of you could have a look over what I was going to address check-up wise and see if all of it's needed etc.

Here's the list:

HDL/LDL and Total Cholesterol
Triglycerides
White blood cell / Red blood cell total
Blood Urea Nitrogen
Creatinine
Blood Urea Nitrogen / Creatinine ratio (done at a special request at no extra charge, please hand a copy of this email at the reception or to the nurse)

Bilirubin
Alkaline Phosphatase
AST
ALT

- £46 (approx $92)

Testosterone (Free and Total) - £238 ($476)
LH - £46 (approx $92)

Estradiol - £46 (approx $92)


Thyroid Hormone Panel (T3, T4 Total and Free, TSH)
Thyroid Profile 1, which includes T4 and TSH and add T3 and Free T4 as separate tests and this would cost £150 ( approx $300)

Thyroid Profile 2, which for as little as £10 (approx $20) extra will also include Free T3 and Thyroid Antibodies.

Cheers guys
 
Your T test seems pricey. Here is the place I use:

Direct Labs, discount prices

Top Priority: liver, lipids, Total T, LH
High Priority: Free T, Thryoid Panel, Estrodiol, DHEA, FSH
Others: SHBG...
 
So basically, everything on my list really needs to be checked then. That site you mentioned looks good and is a lot cheaper than mine, but I'm in London, in the UK.

I don't really wanna get arse-raped over the price, but I don't want to neglect my health either. I'll do a bit more digging and see what I can uncover price-wise.

Cheers.
 
Hey Mags. I'd check the testosterone before but its gonna be very high during. Im curious what 500mg of test is gonna do to level. I can tell you 100mg of cyp (which should have slightly less test then enan) took me from 280 total to 1300 7 days after inj. Range from lab used here is 300 - 1500. Id love to know if it hits 5000 doing 500mg.
