Made a homebrew transdermal and did an at home hormone test

So my endocrinologist lowered my transdermal dose when my blood levels got to the 900s. She said that was outside the reference range.

So I started researching transdermal delivery and with a little help from ChatGDP came up with a recipe that is about 150mg/2ml (per dose).

I wanted an at home test so it didn’t show up in Labcorps database and my endocrinologist coming across it. So I did a saliva test for free T.

For some reason transdermal application can spike it significantly to indicate a 10-100x higher value than the blood levels. Not sure of the science behind it but 2000ng/dl would have been pretty impressive even though the reference range maxes out at about 150ng/dl.

I was not prepared for a homebrew to work this well though. I really want to get my blood checked now. It is probably similar to a high dose injection. My levels came in about 210k.
