[QUOTE="Cataceous, post: 198668, member: 38109"] You're averaging 12 mg per day—cypionate?—, which is ok. The injection pattern is the problem. The simplest thing to try is increasing the dose frequency, ideally to at least twice a week. This would be 42 mg every 3.5 days. The problem with injecting every 10 days is that it is two full half-lives, assuming cypionate and typical absorption. This means that peak serum testosterone after injections can be four times higher than pre-injection troughs. Rough estimates from your lab work put the peak at 1,400 ng/dL and the trough at 350. There is some evidence that this kind of variation in levels contributes to hemoglobin and hematocrit problems. With twice-weekly injections the variation in serum levels would be more subdued, possibly with peaks in the 800s and troughs in the 500s. This is much closer to normal physiology. [/QUOTE]
