In the interest of tidiness I've omitted my Free Testosterone and Percent Free Testosterone values. As my Total Testosterone and Prolactin came into line so did those items. In January of 2012 I added percentages to my table to show how close to the high end of the ranges I was -- this was due to the fact the scale would change and I needed some sort of connstant measure; the percentages appear in red.

299%		 I mentioned to my doctor that I had no sex drive. Bloodwork showed I had a testosterone deficiency.

118 (241-827)*
*Early on I had blood work done by a different lab. The total testosterone seems to scale pretty well between the early lab and later lab. The prolactin does not. These are the scaled values from 300-1000 to 241-827.

I had been on Androgel (a topical testosterone replacement therapy) and had discontinued it in November 2001.  This blood draw was taken 6 months later and it would seem that my testicles given up trying to produce  T at all.  

29 (241-827)*
Women typically have T levels less than 100 ng/dL (300-1000 scale). It is a fair bet that your average woman would have had more T than I at this point in time.

04/12/07
7.5 (2.1-17.7)
42%		 Weight is 232, so I'm up 8 pounds. I'm wearing smaller jeans than in December so I'm not concerned; it's probably a bit of water, maybe a bit of muscle.  Blood was drawn on Thursday before that day's meds. In January my meds were dropped to .75 mg twice a week.  Following this draw meds were dropped to .5 mg twice a week.
09/25/07
7.8 (2.1-17.7)
44%		 Weight is 237, so I'm up a bit more. I'm wearing the same clothes. Blood was taken on a Thursday before taking meds for the day.  I've been taking .5 mg of Cabergoline twice a week for the past several months.  (Following this blood draw my meds were dropped to .75 mg per week -- I can take 1/2 pill 3 times a week or a full pill one day and a half the next time that week.)
11/29/07
7.8 (2.1-17.7)
44%		 Weight is 236, so I'm holding steady.  Blood was drawn on a Thursday (meaning I should have been at a low point with respect to the amount of meds floating around inside me) . I was taking a full pill on Thursday and 1/2 pill on Mondays.  Following this draw my meds were dropped to 1/2 pill twice a week.  
2/7/08
8.0 (2.1-17.7)
45%		 Weight is 242, and while it was 239 last week (and this could be a fluid spike), it would seem I'm up 13 pounds in the last 18 months. Maybe this would be a good time to point out I lift weights every other day, and I have been for years. (However, I'm not saying the weight gain isn't caused by something else.)  Blood was drawn on a Thursday so I should have been at a low with respect to the amount of cabergoline in my system. I had been taking 1/2 pill on Sundays and 1/2 pill on Thursdays.  Following this draw my meds were dropped to 1/2 pill (.25 mg) once a week.
4/10/08
8.4 (2.1-17.7)
47%		 Weight is 245, so it seems I'm up 3 pounds. I am still wearing the same clothes though the shorts I wore on vacation in September 07 may be more snug.  My squats have increased 40 pounds (by sets) since the beginning of the year and all the other lifts are up as well. I'm not terribly concerend about the weight but will try to get a bit leaner this summer -- vacation and snow kept me off the bike after December.  I don't think the weight gain is the result of my increased prolactin, but I'll continue to monitor it.  Blood was drawn on a Thursday when I would have had the least bit of Cabergoline in me.
6/12/08
8.6 (2.1-17.7)
49%		 Weight is 242. Blood was drawn Thursday when I would have had the least bit of Cabergoline in me.  I see the doc again in 6 months. As long as my prolactin stays in range it is unlikely I'll have another MRI.  I will continue to take 1/2 pill once a week (.25 mg weekly).

 Weight is 234; I tried to drop some weight to make sure I could – I thought maybe the drop in meds would keep me from being able to do it.  Blood was drawn on Tuesday due to Thanksgiving … I still take .25 mg of Cabergoline on Thursday mornings.

 Blood was drawn on a Thursday morning prior to my weekly meds. I should have had the least bit of Cabergoline in me as possible. I weighed 260 pounds ... it's worth noting the winter was cold, I was not on the bike a lot, and I had a lot of Oatmeal Raisin cookies (that is, I'm not worried about the weight gain ... I'm still wearing the same pants, they're just snug.).  I continue to take .25 mg of Cabergoline on Thursday mornings.
12/3/2009Note: The lab scale has changed10.5 (4.0-15.2)
69%		Blood was drawn on a Thursday morning prior to my weekly meds so I should have had the least bit of Cabergoline in me as possible. My weight is 268. It's worth noting I got married this past June and spent more time with my wife than I did on my bicycle. LabCorp has changed the scale they use to measure Prolactin, though I seem to be at 69% of the high end whereas I was just 38% there using the old scale -- so, I'm guessing it's up, though still in the normal range.. FWIW, I feel good. I continue to take .25 mg of Cabergoline on Thursday mornings.

I weigh 295 pounds which comes as a result of sitting on my butt too much and eating like I'm still working out. Rather than gripe about the weight gain we (you and I) will use it to run an experiment. We'll see if I can lose it and then, if I do, what that does to my hormones.  You'll note, above (11/25/08), I was at 97% of the top end for T when I weighed 234... I was at 38% of the top end for prolactin at the same time.  I'm currently at 65% for T and 68% for prolactin. I find it hard to believe 60 pounds would cause such a swing, but we'll see.

Blood was drawn Thursday morning before I took my week's meds. Due to a medicaition goof, it had been 9 days since my last Cabergoline (which I continue to take at .25 mg weekly). I weigh 289; I've wanted to drop some weight but haven't been knocking myself out to do so -- the six pound drop feels about right. I started taking B vitamins as they may help keep prolactin in check.

Blood was drawn Thursday morning before I took my week's meds, so I'd have had the least bit of cabergoline in me possible. I've gained 10 pounds since last visit, but I'm certain it's due to inactivity -- I can't say I've been trying too hard to lose weight. (Weight 299.)

Weight is 296. Blood was drawn Thursday morning before I would have taken my weekly meds.  The doc has taken me off cabergoline -- I'll start to have blood drawn each month for a while.
