[QUOTE="madman, post: 189924, member: 13851"] If anything I would start off injecting twice weekly (50 mg every 3.5 days) than 6 weeks in when blood work is done you could look into injecting more frequently as in EOD or daily if need be. The first 6 weeks of trt can be very misleading when it comes down to how one truly feels regarding relief/improvement of low-t symptoms on such protocol (dose t/injection frequency) as there is a lot going on (hpta shutdown/hormones in flux). Patience is key and once healthy TT/FT levels are achieved and blood levels have stabilized on such protocol (4-6 weeks) it will take the body 2-3 months to adapt to those new levels and this is the critical time period when one should gauge how they truly feel overall regarding relief/improvement of low-T symptoms. Having SHBG in the low 20s does not mean one will need to inject more frequently mind you when injecting larger doses of T it can have a stronger impact on lowering SHBG but even then it is not a given. Depending on the protocol (dose T/injection frequency) some men will notice a large drop in SHBG whereas others may only notice a slight decrease. My SHBG pre-trt 34 nmol/L and injecting 150 mg (75 mg every 3.5 days) resulted in an SHBG 30-31 nmol/L. If you have no issue poking yourself EOD or daily then go nuts but seeing as you are just starting trt I would wait until the 6-week mark before jumping into it headfirst that is just me though.
