[QUOTE="BUBearsFan, post: 258702, member: 41035"] You can add mine if you want. I wish I would have seen these posts top and center long ago. A couple other points. I started on Cypionate in the US and switched to Enanthate over 4 years ago when I moved back to Europe. Based on my experience, the difference is totally noticeable. It's also worth pointing out that, in general, Europeans take far fewer drugs than Americans. When I showed up at my current doctor in Europe to discuss a couple non test related drugs I was taking, he asked me to give lower doses a try. My more is better mentality had me questioning him but I did it. He told me he practiced medicine in Canada and then returned home to Europe. He said dosing in the US and Canada is much higher than Europe. Another thing I have noted myself after living in Europe for about 12 years is that people here are far more reluctant to take medicine unless totally necessary. In the US we have the drug companies advertising directly to the consumers on tv like it's ice cream or something. Talk to your doctor about this or that drug. It will solve your problems. This doesn't happen in Europe. It is totally stupid that this happens in the US. It should not. More is better. No it's not. But anyway, his comments about dosing in general also helped convince me to look more closely at my test dosage. In my opinion, it's totally irresponsible for a doctor to start a patient on such a high dose of test, like 150-200mg once per week. They should be started lower and gradually increased if necessary, and based on frequent blood tests. Not doing this cost me years of getting it sorted out. It's far easier to adjust up than down and up and down once you create multiple side effects (other hormones, hematocrit, hemoglobin, etc) from too high of a dose. [/QUOTE]
