Played the game with a reluctant and partially educated dr to end up taking 120mg a week in split doses. I worked up to this dose after 100mg every 2 weeks, 80mg, and 100mg a week. 120mg a week ended up being a good max dosage for me as I need no AI and push upper boundaries in all T labs and keep my E2 in check. My dr. Has me do labs 2x a year and for the last year or so I’ve been seeing my T values go up. When I was working my way up to my max dose 80mg had always put my total T around 520, 100mg put me at 720mg and 120 put me around 940 range for these 250-1100. Within the last year I’ve been seeing these values go up on the same dosages. Just this week i did labs and my dr. Only wanted to test total T for some reason. Roughly 100mg a week had me at 1042 TT 300-890. I should have mentioned all previous tests were by the lc ms/ms method. Range 250-1100. I’m confused what could be changing in my body that these values are increasing on the same amount of T. I do supplement with a multivitamin, grapeseed, turmeric, co q10, DIM with calcium d-glucate, rez-v, l-Theanine, 7-keto and ZMA at night. I’m wondering if the zinc supplemention through the multi and ZMA could be causing the increase in T values. Thought one of the prominent TRT Dr’s used zinc on low with low doses of TRT for this reason. If anyone has any input, I’d like to hear it. Thanks in advance.</span></span></p></blockquote><p></p>
