Test Levels When Taking 500mg of Test C per Week?

What test level (ng/dl) on blood work should someone expect to have from taking 500mg of test cyp per week?

It does depend a bit on how often you are pinning, when you are testing in relation to pinning, carrier oil, and individual differences, etc.

Here is a study on it.

Testosterone dose-response relationships in healthy young men | American Journal of Physiology-Endocrinology and Metabolism

IIRC, they were taking the test E shots once a week, and measuring in the trough. They were also taking a drug to completely suppress them (I mention this because it would be improper to conclude that the low doses completely shut down the test subjects, a mistake I made when first reading the study).

FWIW, I would expect my total T on 500 mg/wk of Test E pinned M, W, F and measured on Friday before my shot to be around 3050 ng/dL. I got that result by multiplying my TT result from 200 mg/wk pinned M, W, F, and collected Friday before my pin by 500/200.

The study also has some issues in regards to being misleading about muscle gain during a cycle. Perhaps it is misinterpreted a bit by readers too. I feel that it should mention that some of the lean tissue gained is likely water, and will drop quickly after cessation of Testosterone.

thank you

Pretty much spot on for me as well. Somewhere around 3000-3200ng/dL measuring right before an injection.
