I recently saw a nurse practitioner (haven't been able to see the dr. yet) and was prescribed 200 mg/week of testosterone cypionate, my testosterone level was about 290. I'm 51, 6'1", 180lbs, energy levels/concentration have been pretty bad the last few years and stress pretty high.
CVS gave me Sun Pharma 200mg/ml, it's in cottonseed oil. I've tried to inject .5ml (100mg) every 3.5 days (not the most accurate guy yet), but here are my first 5 injections,
Tues 8/30 .5ml 100mg 8:45 am
Fri 9/2 .5ml 100mg 9:20 pm
Tues 9/6 .47ml 94mg 8:40 am
Fri 9/9 .45ml 90mg 7:10 pm
Tues 9/13 .47ml 94mg 8:40 am
Now in week 3 I've started to notice one thing that has me a little concerned that I've never experienced, hard sensitive nipples. I guess estrogen could be high and I'm kind of worried about getting gyno.
I'm wondering if it might be smart to either skip this coming Fri injection or drop it to around .25ml. Also wondering if I should go to .25ml (50mg) twice a week until I can see the doctor. What would you guys do?
Also, with this injection history when would you do your first bloodwork and get in to see the doctor? I've found Nelson's link to discounted labs, but a little confused how many tests would be best to start with to have available at the first doctor visit. Would really appreciate any test recommendations.
