[QUOTE="John O'Connor, post: 184727, member: 13064"] Rayrock1, dosing more frequently with smaller doses simply levels out your highs and lows. So for me dosing 100mg once per week had my peak at 1150+, and my trough in the 550 range. I noticed less frequent morning wood around the peak, 48-72 hour post injection time, but morning wood improved as I got closer to my trough day. I 1st tried increasing frequency but keeping weekly dose the same, so 50mg e3.5 days, but I probably only had morning wood twice per week on that regimen, with my trough level in the 900 range. My hematocrit was also getting into the 51-53 range despite donating blood it remained there. I then lowered dose to 80mg weekly, 40mg e3.5days, which brought my total T to 600 range, and brought hematocrit down too. Frequency of morning wood improved to about 5 days per week. After 6-9 months on the 80mg weekly dose, I decided to try bumping up to 90mg, 30mg 3x per week. I was able to maintain low hematocrit levels, maintain regular morning wood, and total T has been stable in the 700+ range since then. As much as I'd love to be on a higher dose for strength benefits, as I did have noticeably more power on the 100mg dose, every time I try to bump the 30mg dose up to 32 or 33mg I notice a decrease in morning wood frequency. So essentially its just been small adjustments to find the optimal dose for me. For reference, I began TRT in 2016, and as others frequently say the initial spike in hematocrit seemed to level off over the 1st 1-2 years on TRT.
