[QUOTE="madman, post: 97130, member: 13851"] 100mg-120mg (50mg or 60mg every 3.5 days) without the use of an aromatose inhibitor would have been a better starting protocol as 140mg/week (70mg every 3.5 days) is still a fairly high starting dose of testsosterone. Sure increasing your t will increase e2 but it is not a given that you will experience high e2 symptoms. Would have been much better to see how your body reacts without an a.i. and than decide after 6-8 weeks unless you started to experience high e2 symptoms. Your hpta is still not fully shutdown at 2 weeks on trt and your test levels are in flux which will take 6 weeks to stabilize. During the first 6 weeks it is hard to truly gauge how one feels at a specific dose of testosterone as even once your levels stabilize on a new protocol (dosage increase/decrease or injection frequency) it can take time for certain low t symptoms to improve. I feel it is always best to start low and go slow when using testosterone so one can see how it will effect their total/free t, estradiol, prolactin, dht, shbg and hematocrit/hemoglobin among other important health markers. Unless one has elevated e2 along with high e2 symptoms pre-trt than avoiding the use of an a.i. when first starting a protocol will let one see whether they truly need to add an a.i. Monday mornings and Thursday evening should be your injection frequency not Monday mornings/Friday evenings as you want to keep injections every 3.5 days. Before you jump to conclusions you need to let your levels stabilize. The first 6 weeks is usually considered the honeymoon period! [/QUOTE]
