    How long did it take you to dial in?

    I know that Madman preaches patience and that it can take up to four months from the time a protocol change occurs to dial in. I whole heartedly support that. I am just curious what other's experiences are. How long did it take you from the time you changed your protocol to feel dialed in?

Everything else came back good (Estradiol, liver, kidney, shbg etc) My concern is the starting dose of 250mg...
