I was diagnosed with low-T awhile back and long story short, a few years later I have self medicated and am making the most of it while being cautious. I have been taking test e for 10 weeks. I started at 500 mg for 2 weeks, and decided every 3rd day was easier, so it comes out to 583mg/wk. I feel great. My sex drive did spike for about 2 weeks, but right now I just feel like myself again. I don’t feel like a horny 16 year old and I don’t feel low T anymore, it has been life-changing. I am a bit heavier and stronger than I used to be at this point and recovery is great.
I am going to try tren-e. I don’t know shit really but I don’t want a crazy high dose or to add more than one thing at a time and take it slow. I am guessing I will probably need to get adex nolva or clomid to be on the safe side with the enanthate since if I see sides it may be awhile for them to subside and I might need to help balance myself back.
I was thinking I would lower test-e to half and just run half test-e (or maybe sustanon) with half tren-e. so about 290 test-e/wk with 290 tren-e/wk. Should I make this a gradual transition over a couple of weeks or does the tren just jump right in and kick ass as normal? Is that a poor ratio?
And I’m not sure when/how to get my bloodwork done without fucking up my insurance… I need to get on that pretty soon. Right now my only sign of getting out of balance would be puffy nipples as an indicator which I don’t have or just how I feel… beyond that, I have no idea where I’m at on my bloodwork, but I’ve been trying to have a pretty foolproof low dose around 500. I don’t want to get massive as fuck anyway, I just want to go with the minimal effective dosages until I’m the size I have pictured in my mind and blast/cruise there. I just think Tren sounds like something I’d enjoy and see great results with if I kept the dose 300 or lower.

Sorry for the long post guys… I have never had a chance to ask anyone anywhere with real knowledge on the topic. Thank you for your time.
586 mg is not a low dose of test by any means. You need to get bloods to see where your markers are. I’m not sure about insurance as I’m from Canada and our health care system is quite different. I’m glad you want to start with a lowish dose of tren. Since your using tren e, not a, it will take a little longer to kick in. The ratios most experts or “gurus” go with are 2:1. Some believe in keeping test high and running lower on the anabolics, and others like the opposite. It’s up to you man, but I like lower test higher on the anabolics personally.
I just got my labs in… looks like my E2 is pretty fucking high… I’ve noticed a little drop in sex drive over the last couple of weeks, but nothing else… I don’t know what I’m looking at yet on labs and not sure the best avenue for balancing myself out.
These labs are 3rd day after last pin of test e 250 so I guess peak levels. I’m kinda nervous about that E2…
Yes I am donating this week after seeing that hematocrit. Blood pressure I’m not 100 on, my heart rate is fine though. I have had one headache day but it was from neck muscle getting wacked out from a pillow.
The reading I did all said 500 and under doesn’t even need any AI and barely any PCT other than HCG because there are no sides… plus I read somewhere that AI’s are a last resort and not to use them unless absolutely necessary. That only makes sense… introduce one thing at a time and see how it goes, right? The KISS method and then if anything gets wonky, you know what the hell did it. I didn’t want to fire up a buffet/grocery list of chemicals that are “approved cycles” because it just felt like a bad idea. Well I now found Tnation and learned a bit more about estradiol and would like to keep it in check so I’m introducing ingredient number two. I now need to know the best AI, and how to introduce it mid-cycle like this, then get blood work in 2 weeks, and plan a PCT to get on cruise without anything going haywire. And I’ll probably revisit one of those good cycles with tren e and just buy all the fucking ingredients and do it by the book… I don’t want to reinvent the fucking wheel here… Man I feel like a jackass coming in here and asking all of this shit. I have read and read for 10 years and never got straight talk answers so I was trying to keep it simple.
I apologize if I came off like an asshole. Not my intention. I am still fairly new at this also, I just don’t like to see people jump into life changing events without having a plan in place and researched the whole event prior to the plunge. I spent 6 months lurking and reading these forums before I even created an account. Then with that knowledge I got appts with an Edno, bloodwork and finally TrT.
500 mg test per week has no sides and doesnt require an aromatase inhibitor? Not sure where you did your reading man, but damn it’s a good thing you found Tnation. For many guys, side effects pop up on 200 mg per week and they need an AI.
