I am a poorfag thirdie who wants to go on testosterone. The r/testosterone sub recommends to do blood work before going on testosterone. Pic related is what they recommend getting tested for. But being a poorfag on a tight budget, I don't have the money to test for everything. So what are the absolute essentials from pic I should get tested for?

Some of the tests and their price.

what's the point? I got tested before going on test and got a bunch of numbers that were fine and did absolutely nothing with them. If you're healthy just get on test and do a realistic amount and get tested later if you feel weird.

You're Indian, yes?
>>
>>77552619
Yeah. I am not gonna abuse steroids desu. I'll do the safest possible/realistic doses that'll help with recovery and gains. If you guys think it's okay, then I am happy to skip the tests.
>>
>>77552608
Are these prices in brownoid currency or something full labs cost like $200-300 uninsured in the states like not 9k bro
>>
>>77552623
Yes. Hope you don't give me bad advise because of it.
>>
>>77552625
If you want to be responsible it's good to know your healthy baseline but it's not like you're blasting 3 different AAs, just doing test shouldn't fuck anything up too bad. If I had to do it over again I wouldn't have bothered with pre-blast bloods. Save up to get them done when you're a few months into it so you can see what has gone out of range if anything.

I have a Sri Lankan friend (you're the same race btw, don't argue) and he escaped skinnyfat mode. If you already lift hard then what you need to do is just eat more meat, eggs and dairy. There's no way around this, you're gonna spin your wheels forever if you stay vegan. They say it's genetic but it's not, it's mostly dietary from starvation and buddhist veganism.
Once your diet is on track, then consider roids if the results are not to your satisfaction, just know that there's a very high chance of infertility as a result.

Hindu* not Buddhist

I am not vegetarian but meat and eggs used form a small portion of my diet due to culture and poverty. As a result, I have poor frame, small wrists, etc... I am 33 and want to turn it around. So I will be eating meat(chicken mostly as quality beef and pork are out of my budget) and eggs. I hate veganism/vegetarianism man, you don't have to tell me. I personally suffer the consequences of it

>>77552643
So, if am following test, are there specific procedures and dosages I should follow. I also don't want injections as I have to hide it from my family. Oral and gels are preferable.
>>
>>77552606
Bump.

>>77552606
I opposed your decision until I saw that you're a 33 year old Indian man. I bless your choice as long as you promise to be the best Indian you can be, use your powers for good and save your race. 100 sets of picking up garbage is mandatory.

>I am a poorfag thirdie who wants to go on testosterone.
I don't want to crush your dreams but if you're a poorfag this is probably a bad idea.

1. You will need to pay for expensive drugs
2. You have no health insurance it seems and have to pay for all health expenses out of pocket.
3. You will wreck your health with no health insurance
4. You will have to eat like twice what you are eating now which adds up quickly. Especially because protein is expensive and you will need to eat a lot of it.

I am a NEET. I already wasted much of my potential.
>>77553065
Well AFAIK testosterone is cheap here. I already secured some money for protein for the entire year. I wouldn't try this if I hadn't gotten at least some funds.
>>
>>77553095
So as a NEET you have a lot of time to pick up trash?
>>
>>77553096
Technically I help out at the shop of a friend of my dad all day. As for picking up trash, I already do that. Unfortunately people throw vomit inducing organic waste and shit near dustbins. So there's a limit to what I can do considering the public infrastructure here.

>>77553104
Thank you for the effort!
