What all does a blood test show?

[AHOVA]

Can I get my T/E ratio levels checked with a blood test? I know you can get natty test checked right?

Yes and yes. Blood testing can reveal so much, it is almost too long to list here. I am due for mine tomorrow and 22 vials will be drawn.

If you go to this link, you'll see a paper the Dr. wrote for TRT blood testing that lists all you should be asking for. He also has a brief paragraph defining the samples.

never had more than 3 vials drawn, for a full blood panel.

 

[macrophage69alpha]

perhaps they may break your sample up into 22 units (though that seems very high)
