[QUOTE="Cataceous, post: 209176, member: 38109"] I wouldn't characterize us as "hyper-responders". Normal daily testosterone production is in the range of 3-9 mg, with 6-7 being average. You and I would probably naturally be making around 3-5 mg daily at our best. In any case, I think cutting the dose in half is a good start. I assume your testosterone is 200 mg/mL, so you will be dropping to 80 mg per week. Depending on how long you've been on the higher dose you may need to expect some unpleasantness with the reduction. You may feel hypogonadal for weeks or more until your body adapts to the lower level. Have you measured SHBG? Your free testosterone suggests it may be on the low side. If free testosterone goes down in proportion to dose then it may still be high after the reduction. A further decrease in dose could be warranted, but cross that bridge when you get there. [/QUOTE]
