[QUOTE="madman, post: 209430, member: 13851"] Ridiculous to suggest front-loading on trt. Even then starting on 200 mg T/week is too high a dose from the get-go as you found out! Again you need to find a protocol dose (T/injection frequency) that suits you best let alone achieve a healthy trough FT. SHBG is critical as not only will it have a significant impact on TT/FT but can also dictate what injection frequency may suit you best. Seeing as you have high SHBG you are going to need to hit a high-end TT to achieve a healthy FT. The goal of trt is to achieve healthy hormones which will result in relief/improvement of low-t symptoms (energy/mood/libido/erectile function/recovery/body composition)/ overall well-being let alone prevent/minimize any possible side-effects and keeping blood markers healthy long-term. You have high SHBG and would most likely do well splitting your dose twice weekly. Again you made a drastic cut to your dose and your trough FT level is low. If anything I would have at least tried 150 mg T split twice-weekly (75 mg every 3.5 days). [B][I]. I start with sub q this week and libido has come back .... I don't get how now doing subq can do that ..[/I][/B] Again this means nothing when looking at the bigger picture as you just recently switched to sub-q. Could be numerous reasons. Only time will tell if you maintain such [/QUOTE]
