[QUOTE="S1W, post: 211996, member: 16947"] I’ve settled on EOD injections. Generally between 34mg EOD (119/wk) to 38mg EOD (133/wk). Last labs were from 38mg EOD (trough before injection): SHBG: 16 TT: 875 TruT FT: 31.5 E2 (LC/MS): 72 This was a good protocol for me in terms of symptom resolution - which is something that sometimes gets lost in the weeds. What I mean by that is that with all of the trial and error, labs, etc that are part of TRT, it’s important for me to simply step back and say, “Why did I start TRT and does it seem like it’s helping with whatever issue I wanted it to help with?” For me, this is erectile function. The above protocols work for me. I’ve tried lower dose daily, EOD, E3.5D with less success in terms of system resolution. I also don’t like AIs. I just don’t feel right on them. I only tried them because my E2 was high on paper. But my E2 has been everywhere between mid 30s and as high as low 80s and I honestly never felt like it was causing me any issues. Cream (2 clicks AM 1 click PM) has also worked well for me and has been the only TRT method in which I have symptom resolution [I]and[/I] picture perfect labs. I just prefer injections for a number of reasons. Another point of clarification - I may not be a true low SHBG guy. When I started TRT my SHBG was high 20s. Either long-term TRT or running consistently high levels has pushed it down. [/QUOTE]
