    Private MD question

    That is probably asked all too often but -

    I was going through the list of tests and there are tons

    Which test should I do for TEST, E, RBC/HH and, LDL/HDL ?

    I'm only running test so I assume I wouldn't need to test progesterone

    cool

    so far so good but I want to back it up with numbers, my plan is low dose test, run it, check for sides check the numbers, next round up it a little bit and repeat using the previous numbers to help dial in things like AI dose etc.
