I had this idea, see if it sounds logical.
If I buy a home test with 50 ng cut off and pass it normally, no dilution, but what I really need is to pass a 20 ng test, then what I need is to pee 49/19 , (49 being the ng level I might be at now dived by 19 the level I want to be at), or 2.45 times more than I have been peeing normally.
They say a normal person pees around 8 times a day, lets use 10.

10x2.45 = 24.5

So peeing 24 times a day or once an hour should bring a person at 49 down to right at 20.

Normal creatinine excretion per day is 14 -26 (we'll say 18 for an average) mg per kilogram of weight so a 200 pound guy (90 kilo's) should excrete 90x18=1620 mg a day.

1620/24 (divided by 24 pees a day) = 67.5 mg per pee , they look for 20 ng per deciliter so 67.5/4 (divided by 4 deciliters of pee, that's 12 oz of pee I'm assuming) = 16.8. If they look for 20 that will be a little low, but you could probably beat that by eating a lot of red meat, fish and or supplements before the test.

Does this math, "add up"?

If so, I figure a person could estimate the ng level they think they may be at or test to see, and the formula depending on weight and see if dilution looks practical.
I also think if you are over 120 ng naturally then dilution probably won't work, without lots of creatine supplements.
