Hi
I am learning / thinking about getting on TRT as my natural production is shockingly low - why is he asking you to take hcg?
Is adex worth it as well at such a low test dosage?
About that other post, TYPO! That's should read have 1,000mg/5ml vial. I stand corrected. Strange tale here, I had no intentions on getting TRT. I'm doing fine without it. It was actually a fluke on behalf of the doctor. He was looking up my PSA level then he stopped and blurted out, "You're taking steroids"! "Calm down doc, yeah I'm taking steroids" Then he gives me a lecture about the dangers and the "locker room and sharing of needles" crap. He told me stop with the steroids and he would put me on TRT for life.
The doctors and nurses all fail at reading my blood tests, except Doctor Ahlert. whom I haven't seen in four years. I have to monitor FSH, LH, PSA, Hemacrit etc,etc. It appears they could give a good God damn about my tests, to them I'm just another vet going through their turn stiles.
200mg a week should be plenty for TRT unless you are blasting. If its not enough the gear is most likely under dosed.
your dr wants your levels at 700-800, and you want else and more 200mg T is high. so first try to discover the your dr's guidance and then start any steroid cycles ( http://www.steroidshop.eu/steroid-cycles-c-20.html).
I use 250 mg cyp and 200 mg mast and feel great blood work was great.
Using 200 cyp a week
Feel great
Libido is insane
Did you get SHBG labs as well? When you say 400-500 I assume you mean total Test versus Free? Total is important however I always focus on free as E2 as well as SHBG (E is a precursor to SHBG) can bind up your total T. BTW, HCG also stimulates aromatization in the lydig cells.
I am running 180 Mg per week and 500 IU's of HCG twice. I am at 950 total and 380-95 Free at my low point.
