I'm with Vince...back off the AI a little bit. Your TE ratio is 59, which basically means that you have a shit ton of testosterone in your system, with hardly any E2. IMHO, you could double your E2, and still be absolutely fine. It all comes down to how you feel. Your so-so sex drive could...

Vince, the above quote is spot on. It sounds like your protocol has you dialed in nicely, with no E2 problems, or anything else for that matter. I would leave well enough alone. If I could get away with pinning Test twice a week, I would be happy as hell. Pinning yourself every day or EOD is...

Was this blood test drawn at your trough? Sorry for all the questions...just trying to put all the pieces of the puzzle together. What did Defy tell you when they saw that 100+ E2 level? No adjustments to your protocol? I was curious if you had any overt symptoms of your high E2, like...

It depends on your body composition, and the length of the needle. If you're lean and muscular, a 1/2" needle is more than likely going shallow IM. If you have a higher body fat content, it's probably going SubQ. For me personally, I don't use any needle longer than 1/2"...I don't need to...

Along with what some of the other guys have asked.... You meant 500 IUs of HCG, not 5000...correct? Also, like Torrential said, your Anastrozole dose is HUGE. What was your sensitive E2 level, and high E2 symptoms to warrant that kind of dosage? Please tell me that a doctor didn't prescribe...

Pellets are an outdated and horrible choice for TRT. You think you're in pain now? Just wait till they implant a half dozen of those pellets in your glute. You're going to love it. Have you been moving your injection sites around at all? If not, why not? The quad is a huge muscle, and...

Yeah, that's wonderful...what does he know about modern TRT protocols? Do you have any idea how many guys come to this forum while under the care of Primary Care Physicians, Endos, and Urologists that are completely clueless about TRT? The number is staggering. Sooner or later these very...

Test and HCG is very reasonably priced at Defy. A 10mL vial of Test Cyp costs about $129, and an 11,000 IU vial of HCG costs about $70. They will last you 2-3 months each, depending on your dosage.

Pellets?? Jesus...don't do that. It's an outdated, horrible protocol. How do you titrate down with pellets, if your Test levels go supra-physiological? Answer: you don't. You're stuck with whatever is implanted in your ass. If I went to a consult with a Doctor, and he even mentioned the...

Your protocol IS on the conservative side. I just think that it was a little too soon to check your serum levels. If after a good 6 weeks your total Test is still that high in the trough, then it might be time for some adjustments. I wouldn't worry about it right now...it's too early in your...

Hot Dog, When exactly did you draw that blood for the post-TRT results? Was it the day of your injections...before or after you pinned the Test? Other than that, concur with ERO and Coastie. You just started this protocol...it may take a bit longer than 3 weeks for your serum levels to...

Your next step is to call them, and set up a consultation. Your most recent blood work may be recent enough, but you will have to ask them to be sure. It will be worth every cent you spend just to get the consult with Dr. Saya or Dr. Crisler. They will set you up with a protocol for...

Bama, This is all I need to know about your "Doctor," to come to the conclusion that he is clueless when it comes to modern TRT protocols. At least YOU had the common sense to switch to a weekly protocol, but I would even take it one step further. Try pinning 50mg every 3.5 days...it will...

Age 59...PSA stayed the same at 1.1 (pre-TRT and now). PSA back in my late 40's and early 50's was 0.8.
