Hey there, I’m a Trt newbie. I’m on week 4 of my Trt journey. I’m on 100mg test cyp a week split into two injections. No AI and no HCG. I’m 20 years old 6”2 193lbs now. I know 20 years old is very young to be on Trt but it’s with good reason. Last year and a half been walking around with little to no test (6rounds of bloods under 200ngdl). Been in out of the hospitals doing bloodwork and MRI’s with no known cause given by my doctor or endo. I believe it’s from concussions and rapid weight loss (70lbs in 7months). Anyways I’m concerned with the rapid weight I’ve gained on my initial weeks of trt (10lbs) because I used to be fat. I’m wondering how much more weight to expect and when I will begin to get rid of it? I know it’s just water weight as my diet is tracked daily on MFP and has remained the same. Besides that my life has already changed for the better since starting. Beginning to feel like I should as a 20 year old.
Then you know not to worry too much about it. I gain 8-10lbs every time I used to start test (on TRT now). I just reset my base point knowing it’s not fat I’ve gained

So you don’t lose the water weight ?
Your body does an excellent job of leveling itself out. Right now you haven’t reached that point. It takes a little time to reach a “new” homeostasis. Just be patient and enjoy the ride.
