Just received results for my latest Test/Free Test blood draw. I found it kind of interesting.
I have been under the assumption that after cycling, natural test production is likely going to return at a lower level than previously existed. I haven't found lower to necessarily be true, but having always been genetically inferior, I've found that I certainly didn't get a boost. For some reason, my current result was significantly improved a year after last running a cycle.
My original Serum T prior to ever cycling was 288 and Free T was 10.1.
After first cycle years ago, 276 and 9.8.
After second cycle, a year post-PCT, 270 and 9.9.
After third cycle, a year post-PCT, 472 and 13.4.
Getting older and natural T increased somehow after a couple of cycles.
I don't know that this means anything, but I liked it. Just thought I'd share.

Has your diet/lifestyle/sleep etc changed to cause the better testosterone readings?
I would say all of the above have worsened. I'm heavier now, drink more beer now, work a more stressful job now, have kids now, sleep less now. It's very strange. I expected this test would be worse than the previous by large margins. Basically, I figured I'd have the T of a 12 year old girl.

to be honest there are a number of variables that can cause total test levels to change by a few hundred points. So in reality, the VERY FIRST time you got blood drawn more then likely you were closer to 400, you just caught the blood test at a bad time and it registered lower making you think you were lower. I think you just happen to recover back to normal after each PCT.
I've gotten bloodwork done by my doc multiple times in a matter of a month and I've seen my natural levels go all over the place. Most of the time a doctor will take a few readings to get an average of where you're at and not always go just off the first reading.
just some thoughts to consider..

Even if that's the case, I'm glad they're still roughly even 10 years later and that they come back after cycling
