Dosing study or something to give to prescribing Dr that shows a weekly or more dosage vice monthly

[Jackflak]

I have a friend that's on trt but at 200mg a month. So he goes through a wild roller coaster through the month.
I know that a weekly if not more dosage schedule is better for him, but I'm not sure what to give to him that he can take to his Dr and say "Here. This is why I should be on a more frequent dosage schedule." asides from him saying "I feel great two days after my shot and for the first week, but after that I slowly start to feel like crap"

Are there any studies that would show this?

Thought about showing something with a half life schedule but wasn't sure if this would help.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

SHBG is measured and a protocol is designed, it doesn't sounds like your friends doctor doesn't have any idea what he's doing and has no business prescribing testosterone. A 12 year old study below proves that injecting every 2 weeks doesn't work when the half life of the hormone you're injecting is on average 8 days depending on your SHBG. Your friend is going even longer than 2 weeks.

You should tell you friend there aren't many doctors inside insurance networks who know how to replace a man's hormones, going private is the only sane route. Most of the members who found this forum have gone private which is the only place hormone specialists practice.

Endocrinologists and urologists are the worst at TRT, it's not usually their specialty as most don't know the first thing about TRT. We have a lot of members who have gone with Defy Medical who offers telemedicine and mails everything to you and staffs doctors who have been doing TRT for decades.

Have him simply ask his doctor about the half-life of Test Cyp. (Its 8 days.) Then ask the doc how a dose every 14 days - or every 30 days if he gets one shot a month - is supposed to work well when the drug has an 8 day half life? I mean, if that stumps the doc, don't walk but RUN away from that guy. My brain hurts just thinking about it...

To be honest, a doctor that wants to use that protocol is probably not going to be swayed by anything you could show him.
Your friend deserves better.
