Hi Folks…
Havent posted in quite a while. Been running a low dose twst now for 9 months initially at 210 mg test enantate a week and last 3 months dropped it to 180mg. Feeling great and have strength and energy. However got my bloods done rhis week and show some elevations the dr kinda brushed this off says not at a dangerous level and test levels and estrogen and coming down from what they were when i was on 210mg a week. Getting a second opinion tomorrow on this but wonder what ye guys think… btw i am make aged 49 .
You’re still a fair bit above the “normal” range.
Things like estrogen and rbc will follow test levels.
This is your primary doc who says all good?
If you want your bloods to be normal you’ll need to drop test a bit more.
Are these numbers concerning? Not super concerning IMO.
Thanks for comment. Going to drop dose again after this consult. Interstingly my rbc was in normal range when i was on a slightly higher dose.
I think RBC takes time to build. Donate blood and get it in check.
This is likely double what you need.
Thats for replying @BrickHead i either going to drop that further or come off for several months and get bloods done then to see of levels have normalised. Appointment tomorroe to dicuss but thinking the later might be best.
I agree with the other responses you’ve received.
For most men, 140mg a week of testosterone cypionate or enanthate will be the maximum effective dose that will provide good symptom relief with causing negative side effects. For many men 100mg a week will be adequate. The majority of men on TRT will be prescribed between 100-140mg a week.
200-250mg a week is often referred to as a “Sports TRT” dose, and is considered a mini-cycle by those who are more educated on AAS, as it exceeds replacement levels.
