[QUOTE="Nighthawk, post: 196161, member: 19215"] Nelson, from your experience and what you know from others....do men on TRT who currently live at sea level and have a stable Hematocrit/Hemoglobin that sits usually in the low 50's....If I were to relocate to a higher elevation location like 2,500-3,000 ft would my Hematocrit and Hemoglobin further increase because of the thinner oxygen or would they remain stable as I already have an increased RBC to counteract this increase in altitude due to the fact that I'm on testosterone? I have been on TRT 3 years and have had to employ all the tricks to maintain my H/H in decent levels, lowered my overall T dose, inject daily, drink a gallon of water per day and eat 2 whole grapefruit per day. Additionally is there any correlation to the difference in injecting Subq vs Intramuscular as it pertains to H/H? Basically wanting to relocate from Florida to Arizona, but don't want the headache of my H/H further increasing because I am now living at a much higher altitude. I would greatly appreciate any of the experts to chime in...Thanks! [/QUOTE]
