[QUOTE="madman, post: 268648, member: 13851"] No. If you are not taking in enough fluids/electrolytes when supplementing with creatine then this can have an impact on hematocrit. The key here is staying well hydrated! I have been using creatine since phosphagen hit the market back in the 90s. Been on trt for almost 7 years. If you are running around with a hematocrit of 54% then you need to look at your TRT protocol (dose T/injection frequency) and how high of a trough FT level you are running. Keep in mind that other factors such as sleep apnea, smoking, asthma, and COPD can have a negative impact on hematocrit. Most on TRT that are struggling with elevated RBCs, H/H are running too high a trough FT level. If you are not struggling with any sides then I see no issue with running slightly above the top-end. You are hitting a high-end 54%. Most doctors in the know would prefer to keep hematocrit <54%. Whether through phlebotomies or in many cases lowering your weekly T dose and bringing down your trough FT. Some will even address this once you hit 52%. [/QUOTE]
