I don’t know about withdrawal, but I’ve gone from 400-500mg back down to 200-175mg before. Usually I still feel great for the first 3 weeks of the dose change, then I just kinda notice I’m feeling less pumped, maybe lower libido, just not as amped up, for another couple-3 weeks, then I’m used to the dose and just feel ‘normal’.
I’m sure there’s no harm is tapering down, it just may not be needed. And after 9 months of 400mg, getting your dose down quickly may be a priority
Yah i think it is my priority for sure.
I’m learning you can’t just trust your trainer to give you good info lol.
It’s nice there are forums like this to talk to folks.
Ha! Yeah can’t always trust your trainer
Is dropping my dose to 200 mg a week a safe amount to not cycle? Like I said, I want to be on it non stop.
Yes - many guys have TRT doses in the 150-200mg per week range and are very happy with the results.
I feel good at 200 mg/wk. Didn’t really feel better at high levels. Maybe better at 200 mg.
You could do 2 weeks at 300 before going down to smooth out the transition.
You need blood work to determine if you need arimidex. 1mg EOD is likely to much. I got to low of e2 levels off of .125 mg 2x a week on 150 mg/wk. At 200 mg/wk I don’t take any.
I realize that i’m not exactly on TRT since my current dosage is high and i’m not prescribed by a doctor but i figured this was the relevant category. Ive been on a high dose 400 mg a week for 9months and i’m learning this isn’t safe or even necessary
With that being said i’m going to drop my dosage from 400mg a week to 200mg a week. I currently have been administering 200mg twice a week of test. Cypionate. I’m now going to start administering 100mg twice a week.
My question is…Is it better to administer once a week or twice a week. Meaning I would do 200mg once a week instead of 100Mg twice per week? Any thoughts or feed back would be awesome.
Personally I pin twice a week but my sick mind enjoys the whole ritual. Comes from being brought up as a teen in the SF Bay Area drug culture of the 60’s I think…ha ha. You could achieve more consistent blood levels with twice a week and some report feeling better overall doing twice/week but I guess it comes down to whatever is most convenient also.
I like QOD injections, after 3 years of trying every single protocol, that’s been the most consistent for me. For you I would do 100mg x2 weekly, 8 weeks, see how you feel. If you don’t feel good, you can try 3x a week or QOD
What’s “QOD”?
Quevery Other Day?
Haha yes
