[QUOTE="madman, post: 156945, member: 13851"] Supplementing iron let alone when on trt will speed up the process but regardless seeing as your ferritin will be crashed it could take 3-6 months to get your levels into a healthy range.....most likely 6 months to get in the 100 range but we have no idea where it will put your ferritin until you have bloodwork done at 3 months. Downfall is you have to stop donating until you get your ferritin fairly high again.....otherwise in 3 months if your ferritin is still sub-par than donating again will just lower it. The only other way to lower your rbc's/hemoglobin/hematocrit is to lower your T dose and if anything trying daily injections using lower doses as again your peak--->trough levels will be minimal and blood levels will be very stable.....you just need to find the lowest TT/FT level you can run where you still benefit from replacement. I know you stated that you did not like daily but it would be the most sensible protocol to try as in your case constantly battling the high rbc's/hemoglobin/hematocrit since you persist to keep running the protocols you are using than you may very well be stuck chasing your tail.....high rbc's/hemoglobin/hematocrit.....donate.....crashed ferritin.....so on and so forth!
