[QUOTE="madman, post: 207903, member: 13851"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.excelmale.com/forum/threads/want-to-do-trt.24018/[/URL] Post your pre-trt labs? TT, FT, estradiol, SHBG.....CBC (which includes hemoglobin/hematocrit). I would rethink starting off on 180 mg T/week. Such dose will most likely have your TT/FT level too high let alone the downfall of injecting once weekly is that your peak TT/FT/estradiol levels will be sky-high post-injection (8-12 hrs)/elevated during the first few days only to be followed by much lower levels come weeks end . There will be a big difference in peak--->trough level and blood levels will not be as stable throughout the week which can have a negative impact on energy/mood/libido/erectile function. Top it off that use of exogenous T will increase your hemoglobin/hematocrit. More sensible to start low and go slow as you have absolutely no idea how your body will react to testosterone. 100mg T/week split (50 mg every 3.5 days) would be a good starting point. Most men can easily achieve a high-end let alone absurdly high FT on 100-150 mg T/week.....and yes even men with highish/high SHBG. [/QUOTE]
