Hey all,
Would like to hear some suggestions on what companies/clinics you all use for bloodwork?
I've been looking around online but all Im finding is $350 -$400 per test type of thing. Is there a go to clinic you all suggest for either walk in or mail in tests?

Thanks!

For what it's worth, I used directlabs. I didn't shop around so much by price, my main goal was finding someone willing to draw labs out of state, because my state sucks. Quest, through directlabs, worked for me.

Most of these places have discount codes, so look around for one, or ask if anybody here has one.
Thank you, I'm gonna figure out which is best for me and will do that. Thanks again

Hope you don't live in NY/NJ. Apparently it's a mutha'fukker to get bloodwork done if you live there.

Cost depends on what bloodwork you want done. A full comprehensive panel can be expensive but you can also get specific panels and/or individual tests that are pretty reasonable.

If you have problems, I believe @Bobbyloads is in Illinois, maybe he could help you out.
I don't think it should be an issue, I was on trt therapy from getpeak online for about 2 years and was able to do mail in bloodwork, so I'm assuming this should be about the same I hope.

For a 3 month Test Cyp cycle only what are the specifics I should be asking for? Just trying to get everything in line before actually starting the cycle.

Most of these places....

1. Order and pay online.
2. They email you a Dr order for bloodwork
3. You make appt at Quest or wherever they're affiliated with, go in and get your blood drawn.
4. Your results will be available to you online in a few days.

i have to do mine out of state because my state also sucks. i just use a fake PA address and go to a quest location over state lines.

Getpeak was using Labcorp which I liked, but it seems like they are awfully expensive if you try to use their services by yourself.

This is a common purchase among the guys here... https://www.privatemdlabs.com/lp/female-hormone-testing.php

Yes, it says FEMALE panel, but no worries, it's the one you want. It says it's for both Men and Women.

I also like to do a Lipid/Cholesterol panel as well, in addition to the CBC, CMP, and hormone panel that's in the link.

Keep ALL your bloodwork, compare it over time, looking for trends. Try to catch any potential problems.

Don't forget to get bloodwork BEFORE your cycle also, so you have baseline numbers from which to compare.
