Third week into TRT

Buy Lab Tests Online
Hey Guys-

I wanted to drop a quick update seeing how this site and Nelson were the deciding factor to start TRT.
Yesterday morning was my third T injection.

Here's my protocol:
Testosterone 200mg/mL
- Injecting 1mL weekly
HCG: 5000 IU Injectable
- 0.5mL twice weekly

As of today I have felt ZERO effects, good nor bad so I'm just playing the waiting game. I'm guessing I'll start feeling something within six weeks? Is there a normal time frame?

Thanks
:cool:

Could you post your pre TRT labs. You may be a low SHBG guy. Hopefully you only need to get dialed in.
 
Thanks Vince.

No offense but that's a terrible treatment protocol...too much T in one-shot = Estrogen problems from the excess Test, and wayyyyyy too much HCG. Who's prescribed this for you?
 
None taken. Thank you for your input.
Dr. Mcllhenny in Houston via Prime Body
Suggestions please?

She did mention my E2 was low to begin with?
 
tell us again your HCG usage, this isn't a dose:

HCG: 5000 IU Injectable
- 0.5mL twice weekly

...no one can tell how you mixed it so mL could mean anything.

Hey Lonestar 71.........I'm also with PrimeBody here in Houston.

Your e2 is pretty low.
That definitely needs to climb and probably is a big factor in why you're not feeling well yet.
200mg once a week isn't too bad though it is on the upper end for sure.
I did very well on that protocol but eventually did switch to twice a week injections.

I'm assuming you meant 500 IU's of hCG twice a week correct?
That's much more common.
 
I agree with Sean your E2 is previously rather low actually in a spot that most of us would consider it a bad place to be but on 200mg at one-time that will surely climb. Three weeks is pretty soon to tell.
 
Many thanks for the input! .5ml HCG. I just copied and pasted that protocol from PrimeBody when they emailed me the info. I do know that I use the super thin syringe to half.

Sean- How long until you truly felt the effects? How was your libido prior and post? I'm asking because that's my main issue. My libido has been on vacation for over two years.

Thanks again guys!

Primebody starts men at 200 mg per week and then adjusts down if needed. It's just a different approach than starting men at 100 mg per week and adjusting upwards.

5000 IU of HCG should be mixed with 5 mls of water. 0.5 cc means 500 IU twice per week.

It takes a while to "feel' benefits.
How long does testosterone take to show effects?
Add 5-10 mg per day of Cialis to bump up your benefits during the first week.

It would be good to test your SHBG as well. If its low that could explain why you are feeling nothing. 3 weeks is still early though.
 
No, I am currently not on AI but I hated the movie. Also, are my SHBG levels not in my labs above? Thanks again guys.
