Forget about what is considered a common starting dose as everyone will respond differently to the said dose of T.


Sure most men on trt are injecting 100-200 mg/week in order to achieve a healthy TT/FT level which will result in relief/improvement of low-t symptoms and increased overall well-being.


Do understand that although your weekly starting dose may seem low that there are some men who do not need higher doses.


As I stated in your previous thread levels will be in FLUX leading up until they stabilize (4-6 weeks) and it in common to experience ups/downs along the way as your hpta is also going to get shut down.


Your blood work will be done soon and then you will see where said protocol (dose T/injection frequency) has your trough TT/FT/e2 levels and if by chance your TT/FT levels are still too low then you will need a slight dose increase/injection frequency.


If you need to bring up your FT levels than going from 75-100 mg/week would be a sensible jump unless your levels were very low (doubtful) than a bigger increase would be needed.


Keep in mind that going from 75-100 mg/week that an increase of 25 mg will have a big impact on increasing your TT/FT levels.


I have seen a 300 ng/dL jump in my TT when the dose is increased by 20 mg/week.


Keep in mind that you also want to see what impact your current protocol (75 mg/week) has on increasing your hemoglobin/hematocrit.


Any time T dose is increased it will result in driving up your RBCs/hemoglobin/hematocrit levels.


Just wait until labs and then decide if any adjustments are needed.
