If I stick with Xyosted then the only options are:
1. Switch to 75mg auto-injector once weekly
2. Inject 1x 50mg 3 time in 2 weeks……what days would I inject?
Xyosted is available in 50, 75 & 100 injections.
So, would be injecting 75mg weekly be better instead of taking 2x 50mg weekly ......I was doing 2x weekly as from my research and questions it is better to keep T levels fluctuating too much?
I won't start the Letrozole for the moment and see what...
Hello again, after not being happy with my primary care Dr for trt I managed to see an endinocrologist and started trt again after a few months break in between. My endinocrologist started me on Xyosted 50mg twice a week (100mg total weekly) and it’s been just over 3 months now and I have my lab...
I think you skipped over the part that my PCP changed me to 100mg every 2 weeks from 100mg weekly as she was concerned about the T level being 941 and she wouldn't budge until after trying this. I only had about 250mg of cypionate and I would need her to refill.
At that point, by the time I...
I was originally doing 2x weekly 50mg for 7 weeks then had blood work done and T was at 941, my Dr then switched me to 100mg every 2 weeks (3 weeks ago) as she thought that was too high for a 58 year old.
Now my new Urologist has switched me back to 2x weekly 50mg with blood work in 5 weeks.
Update:
I saw another Urologist yesterday who agreed that 100mg every 2 weeks was not a good protocol. He put me back on 100mg weekly and taking 50mg twice a week is ok.
He also said a T level of 941 was ok for me and the risks are the same whether I am at 500 or 941.
He told me to get lab work...
I go for the T test on the morning before my next shot.
Before my last test I had 50mg on Monday morning and then 50mg on Thursday evening then went for the test on the following Monday morning fasting then came home and injected 50mg.....and my T was at 941.
I would assume that was my trough...
I injected 100mg on 1/30/23 and next 100mg will be 2/13/23.
So far I feel no different except a little more fatigue in the last few days.
I have to say even at 941 I didn't feel much different than before starting TRT, no extra energy, focus, foginess or concentration etc only the morning...
I totally agree with you and have listened to your advice and and I even got her to let me go with 100 mg every week versus every two week in the beginning, unfortunately with the high testosterone level of 941 she is concerned about my health. I said to her it would be better to do 80 mg a week...
I am surprised my T level was 941 ng/dl as I injected 0.5ml on Thursday morning and got the lab work done Monday at 10.30am.......shouldn't it have been lower?
Also, since my trough level was 941 ng/dl on 0.5ml twice a week what might it be if I did as she wanted and injected 1ml every 2 weeks...
Other results were:
RBC = 6.23 M/uL (Range:4.20 M/uL - 5.80 M/uL)
HGB = 17.5 gm/dL (Range:13.2 gm/dL - 17.1 gm/dL)
HCT = 53% (Range:38.5 % - 50.0 %)
She wasn't concerned with anything but 941 ng/dl & HCT 53%
With her ration of Cypionate 100mg every 2 weeks I only have the following options for...
I am 58 years old and my Dr wanted me to inject Cypionate 100mg 1x weekly, but with recommendations from this forum I injected Cypionate 50mg two times a week with 29g Insulin syringe into my delts.
After 7 weeks my Testosterone is 941 ng/dl (Reference Range: 250 ng/dL - 1100 ng/dL) and Free...
Hi al,
I started TRT almost a month ago on Dec 5 with 100mg Cypionate twice a week and have not seen any difference except for morning wood and jnr standing to attention more often.
I feel I will be needing a higher dose after my 1st T test.
I have a couple of questions:
1: Should I take the...
I have been using a 25g 1" 1ml syringe and needle but finding it hard to fill 50mg of Cypionate.
I want to use the 29g Insulin syringe but would like to fill the 1ml syringe with a 22g needle.
Is the needle on the 29g Insulin syringe swapable with a 22g or similar needle for filling, if so any...
All is good, my Dr will listen to me as long as it's FDA guidelines otherwise she said I should go to a private clinic. I also saw my Urologist and he said exactly the same thing as my Dr and agreed with her course of action for TRT.
Thank you Everyone for the responses, they have been very helpful. I am going to do 50mg Cypionate 2x weekly and just need the syringe/needle now.
Can anyone recommend a 29g 1/2" or 5/8" Insulin syringe & needle brand, I assume either size needle is long enough for shoulders, or should I use 27g...
Also, since I am going to be injecting 50mg Cypionate twice a week into quads for the moment and my body type is Endomorph (a little on the heavier side), should I use a 25g 1" or 27g 1/2" to make sure the T Cypionate get absorbed correctly for twice weekly shots?
