[QUOTE="madman, post: 258480, member: 13851"] Again! [B]post #3[/B] [I][B]You need a thorough set of labs before even considering jumping on T! Blood work should be done for TT, FT, estradiol, SHBG, DHT, prolactin, Vit D DHEA-S, LH/FSH, PSA, full thyroid panel (TSH, Free T3, Free T4, Reverse T3, antibodies), salivary cortisol (Four Specimens), lipids, CMP, CBC, and CRP.[/B][/I] [B][I]I know it may seem overwhelming but blood work is critical in order to see if you truly have low or low/normal free testosterone.[/I][/B] Even then if it turns out that the OP is suffering from low T symptoms due to low/low-normal FT levels telling him or anyone in the same situation to start on 150 mg TC let alone 150 mg TP split into dailies is overkill. Start low and go slow we say as we want to see how the body reacts to testosterone and driving up someone's levels too high off the hop is a big mistake as this can easily lead to numerous issues. The standard starting dose is 100 mg TC or TE/week or better yet 50 mg T split twice weekly. Lots of time for someone to increase their dose/injection frequency if need be. TP is a piss poor choice off the hop as jumping right into daily injections is not needed. Do some men choose to jump on dailies from the get go sure but it is far and few. Seems like you are one of those men caught upon that more T is better mentality. [/QUOTE]
