[QUOTE="madman, post: 200050, member: 13851"] Sounds like a T-mill and if they prescribe an aromatase inhibitor of the hop then they will most likely be starting you on a high dose of T 200 mg/week. I would be cautious here and first off avoid the A.I. and regarding T dose the best piece of advice is to start low and go slow. Chances are they will be starting you on a high-dosed T from the get-go and throwing in an AI is standard practice as they very well know such a dose of T will skyrocket your TT/FT/e2 levels. Having healthy estradiol levels is critical as it plays a significant role when it comes to libido/erections, brain/cardiovascular/bone/immune system health. AIs are potent and can easily result in crashing estradiol even when running absurdly high T levels! Most in the know on trt + AI are using micro-doses to manage elevated e2. The most sensible piece of advice is to start low and go slow to see how your body reacts to a T only protocol and where said protocol (dose T/injection frequency) has your trough TT/FT/e2 levels let alone other blood markers such as RBCs/hemoglobin/hematocrit. Also, keep in mind that although TT is important to know FT is what truly matters as it is the active unbound fraction of testosterone responsible for the positive effects. The only way to know where your FT truly sits is to have it tested using the most accurate assays such as the gold standard Equilibrium Dialysis or Ultrafiltration. Critical to know where your SHBG sits as not only will it have a significant impact on TT/FT but can also dictate what injection frequency may suit you best. [/QUOTE]
