RBC, hematocrit, and hemoglobin levels

2017-10-22 18:31:10
I'm on testosterone therapy and after my recent labs, I have levels of 50.5 hematocrit, 18.0 hemoglobin, and 5.89 rbc. Hemoglobin and RBC are a little above normal and the hematocrit is above normal. The doctor dropped my injections to every 2 weeks instead of every 10 days as well. If the testosterone therapy is causing it, how long does it take for levels to go up? What are considered dangerous levels? At what levels does blot start to clot? Will my levels rise before my next labs in 3 months

I can only reassure you that your doctor has done the right thing. You appear to be panicking. Please discuss with your doctor. Not easy to write an answer to your questions
