I’m a trans man, currently taking 1ml suston 250mg every 2 weeks, I also have the option to change to testosterone enanthate for the same dosage if I wanted to, I’m not to sure if there’s much of a difference to be honest,
My levels sit around 12nmol trough level, (which is apparently on the highest range for natural men, as for trans men when I inject test it has a peak and then drops to 12nmol at the end of the two weeks)
Wanted some advice, to put on more size should I start taking 250mg every week, or?
I dont think anyone here is qualified for your case. For “regular men” to gain noticable size, not only 250 test a week is a small dose, but also they/we use a lot of other steroids.
Im not sure if you should look at what men do for that, or what females do.
More will equal better results for muscle building in general (over time especially). But it is a trade-off between results and risk. It is tough for an internet stranger to tell you what to do here. I wouldn’t be comfortable having my dose be 250 mg/wk indefinitely. I would do it (or more) for a period of 4-6 months, then return to lower amounts.
Try your best to understand the risks involved before changing your protocol.
It would be helpful to know your age and how many years you have been taking testosterone. You need to understand that men are being exposed to large doses of testosterone at puberty. Their window starts around 13 where they are equipped to put on muscle (if they have the genetics to do in a noticeable amount). The window for adding muscle, I firmly believes it closes around 60 (if you have been building muscle within that window.)
Their window is 47 years. How many of those 47 years have you “wasted”? You can see that time is not on your side. @hankthetank89 indicated that the addition of different AAS might be the fastest route, or even the required route. @anon18050987 is giving the information to assess the risk.
It is up to you to manage the risk/benefit. It has always been my belief that anabolic steroids are better at building muscle mg for mg than testosterone. Do some more research and ask more questions. Weigh the risks with the benefits. This is on you and how bad you want it.
I’m 23, have been taking sustanon for 4 years and have been training for 6 years.
I’m trying to do some research and trying to get some Information from people who have done it in a similar situation as myself before I do anything that could cause myself harm. for example a great ftm bodybuilder Alex tilinca has came out as unnatural recently.
You are plenty young and haven’t lost too much time. You just need to determine how much risk you are willing to take to reach your desired goal.
Read some threads in the Pharma forum to get the feel of the goals many members are considering. Some are extremely cautious, and some are willing to risk it all. I wish you well in your journey.
