Started getting migraines, over-stimulated @ anxious feelings after 10 weeks, so decided to lower dose to 175mg/week eod and see if I felt better. I’ll do another ‘blast’ again but limit to 8 weeks
No. It’s not high enough for any real issues.
Those are a bit old, but I struggled with it for few months, no AI. - Since i have a bad experience with them.
120mg/week, shot on monday(morning), blood on tuesday(also morning)
TT: 640ng/dl
E2: 57 pg/ml
SHGB: 12 nm/ol
Felt like absolute crap of course C: There is clearly something wrong with me, as I aromatise like crazy. I’ve recently split 120mg into two shots E3.5D, we’ll see where that gets me in 4 weeks.
Trough, yes.
It’s probably going to be 6-8 weeks total before you start feeling better. That’s my experience at least.
You were barely over range on prolactin, I wouldn’t stress about it, it will probably take care of itself with some time and decent levels of everything else.
Blood was taken on my trough day just prior to injection. I inject 70mg T-cyp every 3.5 days (140mg a week).
TT = 1137 (250 - 1100)
Free T = 295.6 (35 - 155)
E2 (Ultra Sens) = 65 (< = 29)
Vitamin D = 58
SHBG = 24
Crap, I think I misunderstood. Those (880-920 test, 38-51 E2) are the ranges of my last several labs. Pretty much where I run over the last few years.
Total T 1500+ [264 to 916] H
Free T 39 [9 to 25] H
E2 73 [8 to 35] H
Shbg 90 [17 to 56] H
Prolactin 22 [4 to 15] H
Hematocrit 44.1 [37 to 51]
Peak levels

150mg scrotal cream daily
Blood drawn on the day of my shot, not immediately before, but about 7 hours before. I take 42mg EOD test cyp.
@bcostigan41
What was your HCT before TRT? It’s crazy yours sits at only 45 while on. Mine before TRT was 37 and now is around 47.
44.0 pre TRT for me. 44.1 on.
@dextermorgan - I don’t have a pre-trt HTC number.
I normally get HTC tested at my urologist and it’s always been 45-46. I decided to get my own bloods and these are from Ulta labs and Quest.
I actually think could be incorrect. Not long after I got these myself, I had a Dr appointment. At the doctor, my TT was 1080 and HTC was 47.
But I wonder if I was crazy low in everything before TRT. Wish I had bloods from that time.
@bcostigan41 I had anemia before TRT which is why I asked because our numbers are similar now. My hemoglobin was under the range and now sits where yours is.
I wish I had pre numbers.
Did you have any symptoms of anemia or did you find out from blood tests for trt?
Skin was pale, low energy & that kind of thing. Found out through blood tests.
24mg t cyp daily 400iu HCG twice weekly no ai
Total t 1431 (249-836)
Free T 465 (48-250)
E2 sensitive 47.9 (8-35)
Hct 50.5 (42-52)
Shbg 18.6 (19.3-76.4)
What symptoms were you having that were alleviated by switching to every day injections?
Feeling like crap was a main one.
