Hi all, I am new to TRT, and I am starting injections next week, I am starting as I've low T level and can no longer live the way I have been for such a long time from low T symptoms....
Any advice welcomed
Thanks all :)
 
Best advice without knowing any of your details...Split your weekly dose and inject every 3.5 days.

If your Doc has you on one injection every 2 weeks or even one every 4 weeks, fire that Doc immediately.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
