[QUOTE="cigpk, post: 153634, member: 34003"] I am hoping this will be the last post I make about my current set of side effects. My last dr. appt basically gave me the option of increasing T, increasing HCG or just keeping things to the same. I would prefer to keep my general dosage the same and maybe just change when I take it so that I can get more steady levels. I am hoping I can go to less frequent T injections (SHBG: 53) and EOD HCG injections as I have found I can lessen e2 spikes with more frequent doses) Current side effects: Insomnia, up/down energy levels, inconsistent results all around, acne, muscle aches/cramps Current protocol: 40 mg test-c every 3.5 days (Tues Night, Sat Morning) 360 iu hcg 3x per week (Tues, Thurs, Sat all in morning) No AI Results on this protocol on Sat morning before Test/HCG injection: [ATTACH=full]7857[/ATTACH] My plan (and tell me if you think this is illogical or not going to make a difference) was to go to Test-c every 4 days (i.e. Mon, Fri, Tues) and HCG EOD. So Monday: Test-c + HCG, Wed: HCG, Fri: Test-C + HCG I am looking to keep my overall dosages about the same. I believe this would mean I go to 50mg Test every 4 days, but what dosage of HCG for EOD schedule? I am 28, looking to have children in a few years so that is why I keep my HCG dosage around 1100 mg per week. Dr's over at Defy agree this is a good level to keep it at. So essentially, how do I switch from an every 3.5 test-c schedule to every 4 days and switch HCG from 3 days per week to EOD. May be simple math but I'm an occupational therapist, not a math guy. My hope is that more consistency with my schedule will help with the inconsistent results I'm having and maybe a less frequent T injection will drive down SHBG. [/QUOTE]
