[QUOTE="madman, post: 156896, member: 13851"] You are in a bind here as seeing your ferritin is already 22 which is just above the bottom end of the reference range 16.....by donating you most definitely crashed it so eventually you will develop iron deficiency if you do not start supplementation to get your ferritin levels back into a healthy range above 100. You need to stop donating for at least 3-6 months now and start iron supplementation otherwise you will be causing more issues in the long run if you develop an iron deficiency. I honestly think your best move would be to lower your overall weekly dose slightly and start daily injections using lower doses of T. I think if you minimize your TT/FT peak--->trough levels which would be attainable using low doses of T injected daily and at the same time lower your overall weekly dosage slightly you may be able to find a TT/FT levels that is not too high/low.....as when injecting daily your T levels will be much more stable. You also may need to look into getting a referral to a hematologist. [/QUOTE]
