[QUOTE="ryn996, post: 147488, member: 38485"] I'm in my sixth week of treatment and have gained ~12 lbs of water weight (6'3" and have gone from 185 to 197) and have slight nipple sensitivity. My initial protocol was: .43 Testosterone, twice a week = 1.72 every two weeks (Using two week intervals to smooth out the results) .50 HCG, twice a week = 2.0 every two weeks .125, AI, as needed I have been taking the AI every other day for a week due to the water retention, but have not lost any weight, but it has helped with the nipple sensitivity. I am thinking of lowering my dosages and increasing the frequency. Here is what I'm thinking: .20 Testosterone, every other day = 1.40 every two weeks .35 HCG, twice a week = 1.40 every two weeks .125 AI, every other day (day after Test.) My initial labs: T = 316 (264-916) Free T = [B]2.9[/B] (8.7-25.1) Estradiol, sensitive = 10.4 (8-35) SHBG = [B]76.1[/B] (16.5-55.9) I've had a vasectomy, so I'm not worried about fertility. Please let me know what you guys think of changing my protocol. I emailed Defy this morning, but have yet to hear back from them. [/QUOTE]
