[QUOTE="madman, post: 184957, member: 13851"] Seriously! Coming from a guy who had been struggling with elevated RBCs/hemoglobin/hematocrit and crashed ferritin. Your TT/FT levels were already high on much lower doses of T. How do you go from 100- <100mg/week to an absurd 210mg/week (30mg daily)? Your FT levels must be through the roof. The majority of men on trt would lower the overall weekly T does injecting lower doses (12-20 mg/day) when switching to daily and can maintain healthy T levels. You are injecting a whopping 30 mg/day (210 mg/week). Very rare anyone would ever need such a dose to hit a TT/FT in the upper end. Most men do well with FT level in the 20-30 ng/dL range. You need to understand that a FT 5-9 ng/dL would be considered low and 16-31 ng/dL would be the healthy range with 31 ng/dL being on the high end. Most healthy young men have FT level of around 20 ng/dL.
