Lab results 11 years on HRT
I am currently 61 and started on HRT when I was 50. My Doc proscribes 200mg CYP a week IM. I do 70mg subq every 3.5 days. I do full lab work at least twice a year and it seems over the past 5 years my RBC and RDW are High and MCV and MCH low. I try to give blood every 8 weeks to keep my hemoglobin in check. I typically do my injections on Sunday morning and Wednesday evening and do my labs on a Wednesday morning where I think they should be at their lowest levels. I have noticed that my test total and free seem to be a bit higher. My labs last week total was 1,015ng/dl (scale 280-1100). I wonder if I should cut back to say maybe 60 mg every 3.5 days or lower for HRT? Would this improve my other labs? I have been feeling pretty crappy lately fatigue always tired and my motivation to workout hard at the gym is lower. Is there nay other things I can do to improve my RBC, RDW, MCV and MCH?
