    TRT Dose question

    Something else I have I had a case that is really perplexed to me and doctors over the years is, if my levels are any bit over 800 ng, I have absolutely zero libido. I feel like a neutered dog when my levels are high and have absolutely no desire whatsoever for sex. I went to Dr. John Crisler a...

    TRT Dose question

    It’s good to see others like us that are finding more is definitely not better. My current doctor now and several I’ve had in the past will give you most any dose to relieve your symptoms. When my levels get anywhere near or over 1000ng, I feel absolutely awful. They’re just as no other way to...

    TRT Dose question

    Definitely sticking to once weekly for now and no I’m not feeling bad the day after. I normally use a 25 gauge 1” needle for glutes or 25guage 5/8 for delta and rotate through the 4 sites.

    TRT Dose question

    I was curious, so I went ahead and got labs on 50 mg per week. It has only been three weeks but I am feeling much better in all regards. I was surprised how high the levels still are and this is day seven in the morning of my shot before my shot. Definitely goes to show in someone like myself, a...

    TRT Dose question

    I decided to do 50mg this shot a few days ago and already feel much better. I think the statin decreased shbg causing my levels at 60mg to be higher. I hope it continues because until the statin, I felt fantastic for years on once weekly 60mg.

    TRT Dose question

    Yeah I was doing great until staring that statin and somehow it has raised my T levels verified with labs

    TRT Dose question

    I feel like the more frequent my injections in the past, the higher my levels climb.

    TRT Dose question

    I’ve been at 60mg per week for several years. All in all I do feel really well but still think it’s a bit too much and it has seemed to change since starting a low dose statin.

    TRT Dose question

    They were always normal but I’ll have to look back at some older labs to see exactly where they were.

    TRT Dose question

    Now that you mention low ferritin MCHC this last set of labs was at the bottom of the range which is related to iron. Could this be causing the fatigue?
  13. S

    TRT Dose question

    Yeah for some reason I thought ferritin was only necessary if donating blood? I can definitely get it and see where it is. I’ve never had iron checked either just normally cbc and cmp.
  14. S

    TRT Dose question

    I think even at 60 mg I’m still going too high for a few days or at least that’s the way it feels.
  15. S

    TRT Dose question

    So in your best guess would it be prudent to try a lower dose weekly in one shot or spilt a lower dose?

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
