Six Month Blood Work/New Protocol

At the six month mark of treatment. Feeling dramatically better, libido, energy, mental focus - all improved. I certainly notice a drop in all of those things, however, 36-48 hours before the next weekly shot.

Injecting 100mg/test enth every week, no HCG (to my doctor's mild frustration).

Had a peak reading of 875...but a trough reading, day before next injection, of 310.

E2 reading: 19/Sensitive, 35/Standard (ran both since my doctor is an outspoken believer that too many trt patients over-treat estradiol due to inaccurate lab work).

Results for shbg, cbc, thyroid, cortisol will be in when I see my doctor next Tuesday. My shbg has always been in low-normal range prior to therapy beginning.

In an email, she is proposing a split-dose schedule, as so many here on the Forum are doing. Sixty milligrams of test enth every 3.5 days along with HCG (dose to be discussed when I meet with her).

What is a reasonable level to hope for/shoot for/expect on that size dose given the fact I seem to clear testosterone quickly?

Thoughts and comments are most welcome.

I would definitely go with the twice a week protocol for 6 weeks and see how you feel then. If you feel good up until 36 hours before your next shot, My guess is that you are going to see a big difference for the better with twice a week injections.

My 2 cents - Dont worry about the level as long as you feel good, have good libido, etc...

Thanks, ERO. I, too, understand the "treat the patient, don't treat the numbers" philosophy, but I - too frequently - get caught up in the quantitative side of the game.
