Heart Palpitations - Testosterone Injection Day

Anyone else get these damn things? It seems every injection day (later that day) I get an odd heartbeat and palpatations/anxiety. (50mg test cyp twice a week)

Ive been to a cardiologist and had ekg and echocardiagrams done and all look fine. I take a small dose of a blood pressure med to keep me around 130/85 (family history of hypertension) I even have been taking magnesium glycentate as well..
 
I get these palpitations the day of an injection when on a new protocol. If you are stable and these condition still persists, it may be that TRT is triggering your hypertension.

How long have you been on this protocol?

Coming up on month 4, however i did mess up a couple weeks back and missed two shots (one week worth) and this is the first week im back to a full 50mg twice a week.

Man i cant imagine having to come off test permanently I felt horrific the last week

These missed injections explain everything that's going on with you. I purposely missed a week of injections months back and restarted TRT and I experienced what you are experiencing now.

Your levels are in flux.

I noticed this happened when i first started too, just dont want to have a stroke or anything. Freaks you out when your heart does weird shit.

Weird thing is a did 30min of cardio today and nothing, boom get home heart palps hours later

These palpitations I experience after changing doses are a picnic compared to the erratic heart rates and palpitations I experienced coming off Klonopin, I truly felt like I was going to die, my whole body was tensed up.

You're not going to have a stroke.

Funny thing is I have a Klonopin RX for anxiety but dont use it much.
 
I have been on trt n hcg from past 2 months and i have elevated estrogen. I think estrogen is the culprit here. Looks like test will not increase ur heart rate. Decrease ur dosage. I use 20mg test EOD.

I get them when I take too much at once...try 3x a week dosing.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
