I have been on HRT (test only) for 4-5 years now. I have dialed in the amount of test 100mg/week IM to be administered weekly to reach middle of the road numbers. A recent blood test showed my free testosterone to be above normal at 176.3 while my total test was in normal range of 712. My current doctor recommended that I change the frequency in which I administer 100mg IM to once every two weeks. I feel that this is extremely drastic and really opened my eyes to the lack of understanding he had regarding HRT. I would like to schedule an appointment to discuss numbers/options/etc. with someone who specializes in this area.
Estradiol levels were at 37 which is definitely higher than optimal. I just have issues with him wanting to cut my dose in half.
At my most recent physical all he could do is talk about the study that was done recently that could not be completed because too many subjects were having heart issues.
I am in need of some guidance if some of you would share your thoughts with me regarding this concern I have.
