Switching from cream to cyp injections

Hello. I am new to the site. I am 59yr old male and have been taking 50mg of TRTCompound cream daily on the shoulders for about 1 year. I feel pretty good but don’t like daily cream for obvious reasons.



I want to switch to injections and want to know how many mg per week based on (two injections a week) would be a good dose to start with. I am pretty sensitive to TRT. I tried 100mg cream a day and felt like I wanted to jump off a bridge. So I came back to 50mg

I don’t want to ever have that feeling again and dont know where to start with injections?

Here is where I am at currently and feel decent but still feeling like I need to go higher with T

So I want to start cyp injections

And don’t want to over shoot!



DHEA 117

Estrodial 15

Total T. 400

SHBG. 40.4



Thanks very much

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
