my experience with HCT so far, started trt was checked at 6 weeks ( 150mg once a week ) told doc i wanted to inject twice a week, dose increased to 80mg twice a week, was checked at 6 weeks HCT 53, dose decreased to 60mg twice a week, 1st blood donation, went back for another donation 2 months later, hct back to 53, went back in approx. 2 months 51, went back in 9-10 weeks 49, next time i waited 3 months, had hct checked and is at 47, so seems to be stabilizing now.
