TRT and potential side effects?

[titsu3]

I know I just started TRT at 140mg a dose with hcg. I'm never looking to go crazy then I need to and take more anabolic steroids. With under supervision, a lot of the risk can be mitigated? Even lets say I want to run TRT at least to change composition of how fat I look now to a bit fitted. From there maintain it without going overboard?

It sucks I have low testosterones, but literally struggle to do cardio and lose weight

A few quick thoughts - 140 mg a week will likely be slightly supraphysiological. 80-120 mg is more typical, with 100 mg being about average to get mid-high normal levels. 140 mg is not crazy though, I'd guess your nadir Total T level would be 900-1000 on that dose give or take, with peak values 24 hr after injection significantly higher. Risk at physiological doses is pretty low, but will include elevated hematocrit, and modest elevation in risk of clot and pulmonary embolism. PSA will rise slightly and it is possible that lower urinary tract symptoms/BPH could be made slightly worse over time, via DHT. If you are hypogonadal (sub-300 total T give or take), then I would expect a favorable change in body composition over time, with reduced body fat, reduced visceral fat, increased muscle mass (though not at body builder levels). On the other had, there is no guarantee that these things will happen, and lifestyle adjustments, diet, and resistance training will markedly improve the odds of favorable outcome.

Thank you! yea im at a 304 T Level. Again I want a nice body recomp, but nothing too extreme you know
