[QUOTE="TransitPoloce, post: 57050, member: 14550"] Hi Guys, My intro thread is [URL="https://www.excelmale.com/forum/showthread.php?8952-Hi-from-Thailand-33yo-4-weeks-into-TRT-250mg-Test-E-every-2-weeks-Very-Low-E2-levels"]here[/URL] for some more background. I'm 31 years old, 5'11, 175lbs, Fairly healthy lifestyle, Gym 3-4 times a week, I eat a Ketogenic diet (very low carb, moderate protein, high in fat), very rarely drink alcohol. Besides the gym I am fairly sedentary though. Anyway - I've had my first set of blood results after 4 weeks on TRT - and am a bit baffled by my Cholesterol. It was already high but seems to have gotten worse. My Triglycerides have increased significantly too. Dr's advice has been to eat more carbs and grains, vegetables and avoid meat and all saturated fat - which is very outdated advice in my opinion. My current diet is basically good quality meat - Salmon / Steak / Sardines, some bacon, lots of healthy fats like avocado, coconut oil, coconut milk. I eat close to zero sugar unless it's from veggies and the occasional bit of milk in my coffee. I do eat cheese, butter and cream as part of a ketogenic diet. I eat just below maintenance calories at ~2000/day. I was taking 250mg Test E once every 2 weeks. Which has now been switched to 125mg/week. I can now self administer and will likely split this into twice weekly doses. Labs were done exactly 4 weeks after first dose, before getting my 3rd injection. One thing worth mentioning - I'm currently tapering off anti-anxiety meds - benzodiazepines that I've been dependent on for 3 years. Not sure how this effects everything, but I'm sure it doesn't help. Pre TRT: [URL]http://imgur.com/a/cTS4J[/URL] Post 4 week TRT: [URL]http://imgur.com/a/MHfFV[/URL] If someone could post these in the thread I would be very grateful - I've spent 30 minutes trying to get them formatted correctly but they keep ending up sideways or upside down. Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
