Found this old post by Dr. Marianco on a different forum and I thought it was interesting enough to share. Ideas? Personal experiences? --------------------------------------- The following is fairly speculative. High levels of testosterone for long periods of time, can, I think, result in...

Hi everybody, I was just wondering... Statistically speaking, do high responders (those TRT patients who don't need very much exogenous Test to elevate their blood T levels) generally show higher aromatase activity? I know there are other factors at play (SHBG the first that comes to mind)...

Hi everybody, What's the lowest weekly Test dosage you've tried/seen/read about/prescribed (in case you're a doctor) to get the full benefits of TRT? I've seen people mentioning some doctors prescribing Test as low as 75mg a week and getting good results (TT in the 800s and above). PS. I...

Hi, I've been using Dostinex (cabergoline) for a couple weeks. My most recent blood test showed insanely high FT (32.30 pg/ml on a 3.64-19.30 range). Total T top of the range (1000), as expected. No changes in dosage recently. Just FT that skyrocketed. Lab error?

Hi everybody, Has anyone ever quantified the magnitude of peaks and valleys in TT and FT levels when injecting E3.5 days? I always do my blood testing on injection day, right before my shot. Wondering if there's a way to aproximately calculate my peak, based on those values. Thanks!

Hi everybody, Just a quick question. I'm on TRT using Testex Prolongatum 100mg in a 2ml vial. I've noticed though that the vial always contains more than just 2ml, actually almost 2.5ml of fluid. Any idea on how that affects my dosing? Does the vial actually contains more than just 100mg of...

We all know that gyno is the most evident/worst manifestation of high E2. But from what I've experienced personally and learned from others on diff forums, gradual increase of E2 in the body can have a wide range of symptoms, from very subtle to more pronounced. Trying to compile a list here...

Hi everybody, Just thinking out loud. During the past few months of TRT, the moments I've felt the best (as far as energy, mood and libido goes) have always been transitioning moments, from one protocol to the next, or when I've slightly gone up/down with my weekly dosage. Once stable on the...

Hi everybody, Long story short: physically active, very lean, healthy 43yo man who's 7 months into TRT. Started out with plenty of wrong advice by unqualified professionals until I found a not so bad endo who at least is willing to experiment with multiple self administered test injections per...

Hi everybody, What's the most common Tamoxifen dosage to lower Estradiol in men? My latest blood results, on my lowest day, on a 50mg test cyp x 3 injections a week (150 mg total): Free T: 18.60 pg/mL (3.64-19.30) 17 Beta Estradiol: 55 pg/mL (<56) Prolactine: 8.1 ng/mL (3.5-19.4) SHBG: 39.3...

Hi guys, here you have a follow up on my TRT journey. 43 y/o. Lean and active/healthy lifestyle. Started in March due to deep fatigue, focus, low mood and ED symptoms that had been going on for several years already (ED since my mid 20s). Blood test confirmed very low T, probably due to...

Hi there, Seeing the wide range of Test dosages people on TRT use, I was wondering what are the main determining factors influencing the amount of Test a person needs to stay in the upper end range. I guess it's a tricky questions to answer, seeing how many variables are in play, but I guess...

SubQ or shallow IM: Any real difference? Using insulin syringe/needle (30g/12mm) on a 2 x week 50mg Test Cypionate protocol. I've been rotating injection sites between left/right thighs (shallow IM) and left/right side of belly area (subQ). Third week on this protocol and I haven't really...

Hi everybody, Despite having read plenty of threads about TRT all over this excellent website (thanks Nelson!), I'm still trying to understand how TRT is working for me (if at all). A little background: Almost 43 y/o. Active lifestyle and healthy diet (I work in fitness/training), very lean...
