[QUOTE="S1W, post: 107184, member: 16947"] I figured I would update my own post. I have now been on the T only protocol for about 8 weeks. And for the first time since I started my TRT journey about 8 months ago, I'm starting to feel like this is all worth it. The T. Cyp. only protocol has been my best so far. My current protocol is 120mg/week - 60mg E3.5D. Cautiously optimistic - hoping this could be a turning point and that I'm getting close to being dialed in - and really hoping I can continue to feel as well as I have been lately. But what is really interesting to me that I wanted to share with you guys are my recent lab results, in particular hematocrit as it relates to T levels. I inject Monday mornings and Thursday evenings - labs are drawn on Thursday afternoons a few hours before Thursday evening injection. On my current protocol (60mg T. Cyp. E3.5D) I had the following numbers: TT: 879 (264-916) FT: 24.7 (8.7-25.1) E2: 47.5 (8.0-35.0) HCT: 48.4 This is the highest TT/FT have been on any protocol and also the [B]lowest[/B] hematocrit has been on any protocol. Anyway, I had always assumed that HCT would go up as T levels went up. At least this time around, that was not the case for me. Whether it's a case of HCT simply starting to level out on it's own or a result of something that changed with the new T-only protocol, I can't say, but I still find the whole thing kinda interesting.
