1. CBC with Differential/Platelets
2. Complete Metabolic Panel
3. Cholesterol (Lipid) Panel
4. PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen)
5. Testosterone (Free and Total)
6. TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone)
7. HbA1C (Hemoglobin A1C)
8. DHEA-S (Helps in the evaluation of your adrenal gland function)

Depends on the purpose of the labs. I'd at least add sensitive E2.

This, and I would add that it depends on your age, too.

I like to see DHT and LH + FSH, maybe shbg.... but some of those depend on the goal and whether or not you are on cycle / trt, etc

To add: I have yet to find a comprehensive panel that has everything we need and no extra. I always end up having to build mine.

Edit: but the one in the OP does seem like a good start.

There used to be a male bodybuilder panel on privatemd labs ...male bodybuilder or something. It had almost everything except DHT and either IGF-1 or SHBG. Last time I checked everything LabCorp was as high as camel vagina.

But like mentioned, the purpose drives the choice of necessary panels.

Thanks for the reply. I am 48 years old and I am cruising on Test:200mg/week, IPamorelin:1500mcg/week and CJC-1295:830mcg/week thanks to my anti-aging doctor. I’m currently at week 5 of a blast, TrenAce:400mg/week, dbol :40mg/ed week 1-3. I am considering drol:100mg ed for weeks 6-8.
