[QUOTE="MegaTurd, post: 52748, member: 14271"] Your labs mirror mine pre-TRT, similar age when I started, same height... you got me on weight ;) If you and your doctor decide to pursue treatment via TRT - my advice since you asked... 1. [B]Never change but one variable at a time[/B]!!! I do not recommend jumping into TRT with T, HCG and an AI. Start first with T and with a modest dose (something like 50mg E3.5 days). This will establish a good baseline from which to make adjustments or add adjuncts. If at some point you add something... add it but don't tweak anything else and don't add anything else. What you don't want to do is muddy the waters and make it difficult to isolate the variable responsible for whatever symptoms your dealing with down the road. 2. [B]Pick a protocol and stick with it[/B] for at least 6-8 weeks!!! Some argue 4 to 6 is sufficient to reach steady state but there are a number of ways the body adapts to exogenous T in an effort to reach what your individual body considers homeostasis, it doesn't happen overnight. 3. Not sure where you are fitness/nutrition wise but this is a great time to clean up your diet and commit to regular exercise. Reducing your percent body fat will help to reduce conversion of T to E. Try to shoot for 15% or below. Getting off the soapbox now. Best of luck to you! If you go with Defy... I think you'll be very happy with Dr. Saya. He's very knowledgable and thorough! [/QUOTE]
