[QUOTE="madman, post: 132951, member: 13851"] Do you have recent labs to post with ranges.....where exactly does your TT/FT and e2 (sensitive assay) levels sit? You may have room to lower your dose slightly as your FT may not need to be as high as you think? When one is starting trt or any time a trt protocol is tweaked ( increasing the dose of testosterone) hematocrit will increase within the first 3 months and can take up to 9-12 months to reach peak levels. The only true way to lower hematocrit is to lower ones testosterone dose or donate fairly frequently (which only leads to the vicious cycle of crashing ones ferritin) which as you know can cause many issues related to thyroid among other things. Some try various supplements or switching to injecting daily using lower doses with some luck but even than it not a given that one will benefit. If supplementation truly did make a significant difference than no one would ever donate.....which we know is not the case! [/QUOTE]
