Quite true that I can't anticipate my response to propionate and perhaps better off starting ultra low. However, with untreatable bipolar, my mood is constantly in flux, even when I sleep. And most days, I'm irritable and hypersexual. Trying lithium for the fifth time. So, I'm prepared for whatever negatives I might experience from propionate.I have tried daily doses of 6 to 12mg and have settled for the time being on 8.5mg (roughly equivalent to 10mg of Cypionate), which is quite a bit lower than what you are thinking, but more in line with normal physiological levels (at least I think so). Of course, I won't know for sure until I get off my ass and get tested again.
The tricky part with Prop is that the peaks are higher and troughs lower. If I try to bump up to even 12mg for example, I feel like I drank couple of Red Bulls. Everyone is different though so give it a shot.
This is where @Cataceous blended approach is more ideal.
Tips on how to blend propionate with enanthate (or cypionate)?
I have been having some success with low dose daily propionate for the last several months. Dose levels have ranged from 8-10 mg injected every morning after waking. Overall, it has been a far better experience than my previous cypionate protocol of 80-100 per week (split every 3.5 days)...www.excelmale.com
