My wife is doing awesome with 10mg once per week. She's 40.Just 2.5mg 2X per week of cypionate has been a game changer for my 59 year old wife.
She's been struggling with exercise motivation, oversleeping, low libido, muscle development and fat loss for a long time. Levels were low normal (including thyroid levels) and addressing both testosterone and thyroid has helped dramatically. She's still struggling with weight loss a little but the rest are great now. Other things like prog, preg and e2 were all good.Glad to hear. Is she on a full HRT program? Why did she start? What have been the results?
