Blood Work
I have been out of the gym way to long and getting back into the swing. I also am looking into HRT and therefore would like to get test done prior to see if it is a good option for me. I have used the Private MD site in the past but cant find a history of what test I had done so was wondering if the following would be a good test:

That test looks solid (although for me I would also like to know "Free" testosterone.)
This one is good for the $59.99 - if cost is an issue

This panel will help diagnose the onset of menopause. Significant deviations from the normal range may require further evaluation by your physician.

-Luteinizing Hormone (LH);
-Testosterone, serum;
-Complete Blood Count (CBC): Hematocrit; hemoglobin; mean corpuscular volume (MCV); mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH); mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC); red cell distribution width (RDW); percentage and absolute differential counts; platelet count; red cell count; white blood cell count; immature granulocytes.
-Comprehensive Metabolic Profile (CMP): A:G ratio; albumin, serum; alkaline phosphatase, serum; ALT (SGPT); AST (SGOT); bilirubin, total; BUN; BUN:creatinine ratio; calcium, serum; carbon dioxide, total; chloride, serum; creatinine, serum; globulin, total; glucose, serum; potassium, serum; protein, total, serum; sodium, serum.
