Shooting in the dark here!


All we know is that you were clearly started on a high dose of T 200 mg split into daily injections and four months in yes you are hitting a high TT but this means nothing without knowing where the most important blood marker which would be free testosterone sits.


Top it off that you are also missing SHBG and critical blood markers RBCs, hemoglobin and hematocrit which will be driven up when using exogenous T.


We always want to test at the true trough (lowest point) before your next injection which would be 24 hrs post-injection seeing as you are injecting daily.


Even then there will not be  a big difference between peak--->trough since you are injecting TC daily.


Although TT is important to know FT is what truly matters as it is the active unbound fraction of T responsible for the positive effects.


Most men on TTh are injecting 100-200 mg T/week whether once weekly or split into more frequent injections as in twice-weekly (every 3.5 days, M/W/F, EOD or daily.


Most men can easily hit a healthy let alone high trough FT injecting 100-150 mg T/week especially when split into more frequent injections


Yes there are outliers who may need the higher-end dose of 200 mg but is far from common as in RARE!


Those dime a dozen run of the mill T-clinics let alone bros/blast n cruisers stinking up those bum ass so called men's health forums littered on the internet are the ones pushing that more T is better mentality bullS**T!


Many men are overmedicated let alone from the get go!


Start low and slow we say!


Patience is key.


Always time to slowly increase the dose if need be!


Much harder coming down then going up, trust me on this one!


Will put it to you like this if you have low let alone normal SHBG with a high TT 1000 ng/dL your FT will be high/absurdly high and even if it turns out that you have higher SHBG then your FT could still be high with a high TT 1000 ng/dL but if you truly feel great overall are not experiencing any sides and blood markers are healthy then I would see no reason to change anything.


Need to let us know where your FT, SHBG, RBCs, hemoglobin and hematocrit sit!


Are you taking an AI?
