I generally get blood work 2 times a year. If I'm running a cycle I like labs before the cycle and after to compare. Sometimes if I'm having issues during the cycle I'll get my bloods for checked various reasons.

Quarterly bloodwork is a responsible approach, especially considering the compounds and contest prep.Any specific concerns or experiences with bloodwork?"

Good strategy. Regular monitoring is important for managing health during cycles.

Monthly, but not the whole shebang every time. Just checking on different things depending on what I’m using and doing in life.

That's a proactive approach to monitoring your health. Getting bloodwork done monthly allows you to stay on top of things and make necessary adjustments based on your usage and lifestyle

Every three months at maximum. I like to keep on top of things and adjust whatever needs adjusting. If an adjustment is attempted, I'll test again 2-3 weeks afterwards to confirm the adjustment was a success (or failure).

That's a proactive and diligent approach to managing your health. Getting bloodwork done every three months allows you to stay on top of things and make necessary adjustments when needed.

Nothing other than my HDL LDL really, when pusing orals during prep, liver enzymes are scarily high... but only really push the last 4 weeks with orals.

Every three months unless theres an issue that needs dialed in.
Got it. Regular bloodwork every three months helps you proactively manage your health, with a focus on addressing any specific issues that may arise.

Does it matter much when you get bloods? I’m 9 weeks into a 12 week cycle of Cyp and was planning on getting bloods this Friday morning which would be 24 hours after my last pin (I am doing e3.5D).

Timing your bloodwork 24 hours after your last injection is a suitable approach to ensure accurate results. Monitoring your health during your cycle is commendable.

My primary use of the blood work is to make sure the markers are back to normal before I start another cycle and my annual physical. Not sure if I understand the reasoning to draw bloods during unless you are experiencing health issues or high/low estrogen.

The only think blood work is going to show during a cycle is how messed up all your values are. I guess some people want to see how high their testosterone is?
