[QUOTE="Giantsrus, post: 118132, member: 18913"] This is a relatively old post; however I will throw in my two cents. I've done a tremendous amount of research on this subject....tremendous. I started taking T replacement not because I was clinically low, but experiencing symptoms and have extremely high SHBG (56nmol). The last 3 TT tests (pre TRT) were 775,812, with the last one being 471 (late in the day during a week I was drinking a lot...july 4th week). However, depending on your SHBG numbers and estrogen, a high T number is not all that's at play. However, with that being said, don't do yourself the disfavor of jumping on 250-300MG of test...that is WAY WAY high. Largely considered the Max dose for TRT is 200MG/Week. I've only been on 3 weeks but EVERYTHING I have read shows that your total T numbers should be in excess, maybe significantly so, of normal T levels for really high producers, shortly after your shot, and high normal (800 or so) before your next shot. You could end up with much higher numbers. The protocol I am on has the Test infused with Anastrozole (Arimidex) @.5mg, and HCG twice per week at 250IU.
