200mg to 140mg: What Are the Notable Differences?

Valve has finally announced another HL, for VR only though (Half Life: Alyx or something)

I don’t play video games anymore, used to play a lot… I’ll get the last of us 2 when it comes out, and perhaps cyberpunk 2077, but other than that… nah

Tried to get back into it, brought the outer worlds… just not into it anymore… feels like a colossal waste of time… I’d rather go out with friends. Each to their own I suppose

The last video game I played through was RDR 2 when it came out

You can have a social life OR play video games. I got sucked back into gaming a few years ago and lost a whole year…

However, same with this board. You can be on here all day and night, or be on some chick (or guy, who am I to judge)

Difference is, I can pop in and out of this board… I can’t pop in and out of a video game, esp if it’s incredibly immersive

this is one of your problems. That game was boring as fuck despite being a masterpiece. But I do agree. Video games are distractions.

Dr. O’connor recommends 140mg per week no AI. Try it out. I think he’s called the metabolic doc or something

The Anabolic Doc. He used to have a “call in” radio show about testosterone a long time ago.

Does he comment on ED vs EOD for injection frequency? I am trying to get this is simple as possible once I get rid of this nipple sensitivity and lump.

I personally feel much better on daily vs EOD. It’s one of those things that if you want to know you have to try it. Everyone is going to have a different experience to some extent. Dr O’Conner is old school and I doubt he’s going to recommend more frequent injections than maybe twice a week. More frequent injections of long esters are still somewhat new.

I loved it, didn’t find it boring at all… the slow paced nature of the game appealed to me

I quit my AI cold turkey last week. i said fuck it. Been fine so far. Started EOD shots and so far Im cool. Crazy thing is I have been so chill with no AI that Im glad I dropped it. Music sounds great, women look gorgeous, I want a new watch, been working on my project car, and Im outgrowing pants at the thighs. Plus I feel like a high value man. Im at 46mgs EOD. Still too soon to say its the way to be but I think its better than larger doses which could spike things up too much too fast.

Just saw your video on 5 signs of high trt. I think I’m experiencing all of that since increasing test dose from 100mg…to 200mg and .5mg ai(both divided 2 doses per week) since late August.

This week I’m going to start 140mg and I guess .25mg anstrozole. I already did 100mg this morning before I made my decision so 40mg Thursday lol. It’ll be around maximum 3 months before I’ll know most changes right?

I’m doing 140mg because 100mg too low which is why I jumped to 200. 160mg was showing high trt according to your video when I was on that 5 months late 2018-early 2019.

I jumped high obviously cause I thought of lifting benefits first. This is an experiment and just what I think so far hopefully I’m heading in precise direction.

I tried everyday injections before using insulin syringe back in July / August . That gets tiring idk how people do that…just annoying to poke after a while and so many syringes being used…

Do you think I’ll need an ai if I do 20mg daily(140mg per week)?

No, you won’t need an AI. I don’t believe any man needs an AI. Even my bodybuilder friends have all stopped taking one and they do over a gram a week of anabolics.

What were your differences personally between your biggest TRT dose vs what you’re on now ? Estrogen symptoms is obvious esp if one didn’t take ai on higher doses.

But here’s another question …would I need ai on 140mg divided into 2 shots? I remember my e2 was 33 on 100mg once per week …34 is considered male max in the US.

There is no such thing as estrogen symptoms. You either get symptoms of too low T, too high T, or from fluctuations that occur from once weekly injections and sometimes twice weekly injections. Men who have found a dose that works for them doing a protocol that keeps levels stable never need an AI. Your E2 is almost half of what mine is. I know guys with E2 of 130 doing great. The main difference is their free T is optimized which is the only concern here.

I’m going to try 70mg twice per week without any ai. Do you think I’ll be okay jumping straight from 100mg twice per week and .25mg anstrozole twice per week? I’ve been on that protocol since late August…5 months.

What was your highest ever TRT dose and what is yours right now? What do you notice besides less muscle / strength gain opportunity lifting?

Why would you possibly want to take anastrazole?

Sigh

He’s saying he wants to stop taking the AI

Ie switching from 200mg/week + AI to 140mg/week no AI

Before:
100mg test 2x/week
.25mg anstrozole 2x/week

New:
70mg 2x/week

By the way this is my own fault but I’d like advice from anyone.

My doc prescribed 100mg test per week 13 months. On my own 5-6 months ago I bought UGL test so I can up my dose to 200mg because I think my doc mentioned once (he’s a PCP ) he wouldn’t raise my dose and idk if that’s permanent decision or not. And yes the ai was UGL as well. Only thing my pcp knows about TRT is to check total test once every 12 weeks … Only reason I know what ballpark my numbers are at is from when I was with Defy for 8 months.

How should I bring up that 100mg wasn’t enough and to raise it…preferrably 140mg? This would be cool since it means I wouldn’t have to buy UGL
