Thanks, Systemlord, your response means a lot. Would you recommend I skip my second dose of test cyp this week (GP's recommendation) or just keep at it and let the ACE do their job (urologist's recommendation). Also, what do you think about donating blood when my ferritin is low? I've read the...

I started TRT several months back. Started 100mg once a week but after first follow up went to 120mg split into twice weekly doses. Everything has been great, with all my hypogonadal symptoms eliminated. But now I have elevated BP. For the first 10 weeks it was hovering at 140/100. (I’ve...

Would like to follow up on this because I get so many mixed messages and I’m just trying to do the right thing. I read a lot that a good doctor will treat the symptoms and the patient and not be obsessed with the numbers. But I’m reading here that when I go back with zero changes and the...

Not feeling any side effects. I know plenty of guys on 160/week, doesn’t seem that crazy.

Update: Doc upped me to 160mg/week, now divided into two doses.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll post an update after my Friday in-person.

I'm not stressed - just trying to figure out what the labs mean. I have feel no different than pre-TRT and my numbers don't appear to have moved much. I know it's early, but what does this lab result say?

Hi everyone. So, my urologist ordered the first follow-up blood tests four weeks into TRT. I took those tests yesterday, prior to my weekly injection of 100mg. I have a follow-up appointment with him at the end of this week where I intend to tell him that the only changes I've felt after four...

Please, I'm not looking for recommendations to switch to my delt or VG. Or to switch to SubQ. I may look into those in the future. For now, I'm just asking about IM in quads. My doc gave me an Rx for 18g needles for drawing and 21g/1-inch needles for IM injections into quads. Two questions...

Well I already got the first 10 weeks of test from the Rx my urologist gave me, and he's also more concerned with symptoms than numbers, so I'm probably good to go on the treatment. But my insurance... maybe not. I also just got my estradiol levels back from the two tests and they were 15.7 for...

Question for you all. Tested Total Testosterone 367 five years ago but wasn’t interested in TRT because I didn’t have any symptoms. Flash forward five years and my libido is gone, occasional ED is now chronic, taking lots of naps, and 8 weeks into jiu jitsu classes 4x a week, the weight is...
