[QUOTE="Systemlord, post: 90376, member: 15832"] That's most likely too much testosterone, when did you start TRT? The problem with that large 200mg a week is your T will shoot up above the top of the ranges and so to will your estrogen, over time the estrogen will build up and before you know it you'll start to feel like pure hell. You say your doctor wants you in the 400-500 range expect the doses he's giving you is very likely putting you above 1200+ ng/dL, 100mg a week would easily put you well above 500 ng/dL if you were injecting once weekly. Your doctor is obviously so far outside his field of knowledge that you will end up suffering because he doesn't have a clue what he's doing, end game you're going to be looking for another doctor anyhow so you might as well start now. The problem is most endo's have no clue what their doing, mine struggles to and I can't afford a TRT specialist either. If you can't make the effort to spend the necessary time to find a competent doctor, then you will continue to suffer, it's as simple as that. You need to take charge, call your healthcare provider and get a list of doctors who specialise in male hormones. You might go through a few doctors before you find one who is at least knowledgeable or one who is willing to learn, it's sad that doctors know so little about TRT. Here's some resources that might help you. May I also recommend The Definitive Testosterone Replacement Therapy Manual.
