Was super stoked and getting ready to order and run my first SARMS cycle. Looking at running MK-677 and RAD-140. Decided to take a blood test to see where everything was sitting. Currently 40, 186lbs and roughly 16% bf, training for almost 5 years now. It was impossible to get my Doctor to agree to do any testing. Ended up sending away a finger prick sample to letsgetchecked. Waited eagerly for the results and they are as follows. Testosterone 17.50 nmol/L (Normal range 7.6 - 31.4 nmol/L) Sex Hormone Binding Globulin 47.00 nmol/L (Normal range16 - 55 nmol/L) Free Androgen Index 37.20 (Normal range 24 - 104) Prolactin 902.00 mlu/L (Normal range 86 - 324 mIU/L) Oestradiol 83.00 pmol/L (Normal range 0 - 192 pmol/L) Apparently my prolactin is through the roof and I have no idea why. Spoke to a nurse from where I got tested regarding my results. I learned that apparently levels are at their highest during sleep and I took the test at 4:30AM upon waking which cans skew the results. I also was told that strenuous exercise and stress can raise levels as well and I train 5 days a week and have been on an emotional roller coaster lately . The side effects of high levels can be enlarged breast tissue and low testosterone levels, both of which I don't have. Not sure how to interpret the results. Now I don't know what to do, I basically have no support from my doctor and will be read the riot act if I go to him. Feeling really defeated. What should I do? I am totally new to all of this so don't know what next steps might be. Am I correct in assuming that running a SARMS cycle with these results is a bad idea? I appreciate all of your input, great community here, thanks in advance guys!
