[QUOTE="Cataceous, post: 155797, member: 38109"] The semantics seem to be an issue. "Steady state" just means that serum testosterone in each inter-injection period looks the same as the others. You could inject once a month and be in a steady state; every month testosterone would start high and go to nothing by the end. Personally I would define "stable" levels as having minimal variation, say less than +/-10% from the mean. This would be variation that we would not detect in any subjective sense. I think you're wanting to say that, for you, weekly injections keep serum testosterone in a physiological range. This isn't going to be true for everyone. Guys who absorb faster will go above-range early on and then below-range later in the cycle. And guys with low SHBG are more likely to have problems with larger and slower hormonal variations. This is because free estradiol can more easily become large relative to free testosterone. [/QUOTE]
