[QUOTE="madman, post: 218641, member: 13851"] Need to post labs. 200 mg T/week is a hefty dose let alone when split EOD or even daily would easily have trough FT level high/absurdly high. Most sides are due to running too high an FT level. Big swings in peak--->trough can have an impact. What is your SHBG and where does your RBCs/hemoglobin/hematocrit sit? Do you donate blood? High estradiol is not the main driver when it comes to acne. I would bet that on your previous protocol 200mg T split into EOD injections your trough FT let alone estradiol are very high. The dead giveaway is the back acne/bloat which you have been struggling with for months on end. A surefire way to improve things would be lowering your weekly dose and bringing down your FT. Although many may tend to jump on dailies thinking that it will lower estradiol let alone hematocrit or improve acne it is not a given as even though peak--->trough will be minimal many make the mistake of still running too high an FT. You are already injecting EOD so moving to dailies would not be drastic but I would try lowering your dose first (which you just did recently) then wait 6 weeks until blood levels have stabilized and get lab work done using the most accurate assays so you can see where your trough TT, FT, and estradiol sit let alone important blood markers such as RBCs/hemoglobin/hematocrit.
