[QUOTE="Systemlord, post: 103784, member: 15832"] Been on TRT for 11.5 months and when I was doing either 50mg twice weekly or 25mg EOD, my HCT stabilized at 46% up until the tenth month up until the point where I attempted 70mg twice weekly and 60mg twice weekly. I still have 3 weeks to go for a stable state coming down to 50mg twice weekly from the previous 60-70mg twice weekly which both failed do to high E2. I had three different labs indicating stable HCT in the 10 month period. No supplements of any kind other than protein shakes sometimes twice daily. I've been laying off steak for a while, I do not crave steak in the middle of a protocol change only after once I reach a stable state. My free T has been in the middle ranges mostly except for when I was doing 25mg EOD which put me high normal FT which is why I had such a problem with estrogen, even then HCT was super stable for 4 months at which time I had 2 labs showing a stable 46% HCT. Wondering if I should donate blood anyhow or wait to see if it stabilizes on its own. Knowing this would put me at ease, but then again if it doesn't stabilize to its previous level things could get complicated real fast. Having my treatment stopped and or lowering my dose is not an option at this point. [/QUOTE]
