Smile Blood Work results in, need help

I was given a link to this site and have been reading threads for hours. Very good info from very knowledgeable people!

I just got my test results back and there were a few items I am concerned about. Below are the results of concern and then the normal range provided in parentheses.

DHEA-Sulfate 104 (120-520)
Estradiol 60 (0-53)
Lymphs 60 (14-46)
Neutrophils 29 (40-74)

My free testosterone is 22 (8.7-25.1) and testosterone serum is 708 (241-827).

My last cycle (test and GH) was 3 months ago. My nuts are definitely back and all seems pretty normal. BTW, I am 35.

I am really baffled as to how my test levels seem on the higher end yet my DHEA levels are very low. I thought DHEA is a precursor to Test.

I have just purchased Indolplex per my reading and it's on the way. I started to take 7-Keto DHEA (100mg/day) yesterday in hopes that it will bring my DHEA levels up w/o affecting my test and estrogen levels.

I would be grateful for any opinions on my results. If you need more results I'll be glad to provide it.

The absolute counts would be more useful. Because these are relative values, the neutrophils probably appear low because the lymphocytes are high.

Your lymphocytes might be mildly elevated because of a viral infection, or you might have some sort of low-level inflammatory process going on.

Lymphocytes are fine, neutrophils actually borderline low. Probably not low enough for any ill effect. I had mild neutropenia like you have for a couple of years after a serious illness. The doc told me not to worry about it, which I tried not to do. Eventually it went away; never had any problems as a result of it.

I haven't been sick with a cold/flu or anything else (knocks on wood) for about a year.

I am taking a probiotic for healthy bacteria twice a day I wonder if that can be it? Other than that I take a multi vitamin everyday.

PCT from last cycle was over and done 3 months ago. I took HCG during the cycle at low doses starting week 5 and then Nolv. and IGF-1 for PCT.

I am not take anything after PCT, no HCG or Clomid. Only a Multi Vitamin, Glutamine and a Probiotic.

Which is better to normalize my DHEA levels, 7-Keto or DHEA? From reading various posts, seems like DHEA < 50mg/day is the recommended dose.

I tryed 7-Keto did it for a yr. it was the same thinking you had to keep my T and E2 levels good but this did not work. I am not doing this.

My Dr. said to take it just before you eat. Doing this brought my levels up in the middle of the range in 4 weeks. Did it make me feel any different no but keeping everthing in range can't hurt.

Phil,

I read some of your posts in other threads, very informative. Are you still taking DHEA at 25mg/day? I just ordered a bottle from that link.

I also purchased Indolplex/DIM from Rite Care. It should arrive any day. I will follow what you recommended in another thread until I can find what dosage is good for me.

I also started GH at 2iu/day for anti-aging purposes. Do you see this hurting anything?
