Test in small doses.

**Hammersmashedface** · 04-16-2005, 09:19 AM

I vaguely recall hearing of guys that take 100mg test evey 7-10 days,and do this full time.I would like some more input on this.I am 35yo and have noticed a drop in test levels,would this amount be beneficial?Also would such a low dose shut down your natty levels?Thanks bro's.

**SwoleCat** · 04-16-2005, 09:21 AM

Yes it will shut you down, any exogenous supplementation will.

Wow, thanks for the quick reply,Swole.I find that very interesting.That being the case how do these guys continue full time with no PCT?I would think that they would eventually have to stop.

That's HRT, bro. I'd wait another 5 or so years until you're in your 40's.

if this guy has a test deficiency now- why should he wait 5 years to correct the problem?

i thought they did an HRT study showing that low doses of androgel had a very limited suppressive effect? your own body continued to produce almost the same amount of test, but you get a little boost.

BTW - i know many HRT routines are suppressive, but this study allegedly claimed this one was not.

**gooroo** · 04-16-2005, 12:45 PM

there is still a lot of users on dialup (thank goodness im not!) so be considerate.

**redmeat** · 04-16-2005, 12:58 PM

you should get your hormone levels checked to see how much test you're actually producing

what the hell is dialup?

**gooroo** · 04-16-2005, 04:18 PM

damiongage, if there is a better way show me, it was as polite as I get. I dont feel I have to dumb down anything or cater to wussified peeps, up your dose bro, you sound like a girl

**damiongage** · 04-16-2005, 04:28 PM

If that is polite as you get, then no one will miss you after your banning. Which, by the way, will be shortly if you continue to disrespect members on this board.

Now run along.... I do not have time to babysit any internet tough guys.

**gooroo** · 04-16-2005, 04:40 PM

You are taking this way outta perportion

One minute I think your estro is too high, then the next minute its like your ragin?

Anyways if text can get to someone thats pathetic.

I dont see where I disrepected anyone.

Im over it as you should be too. After all its the in-tar-net ??

If he has his test levels checked and they are in fact low for his age then HRT would be fine now. I just think 40 is about the right age to start, and to get your test levels to a good level for a 20 year old.

Here...let me point it out to you...

"cater to wussified peeps, up your dose bro, you sound like a girl"

now I feel bad...I am sorry, truley.....I would never, intentially pick on the mentally challanged

**Hammersmashedface** · 04-17-2005, 09:32 AM

Would 100mg of test/wk,be beneficial for putting on muscle?Or is such a low dose just a waste of gear.I am looking for a little "boost" until I cycle again(6 months from now).

**gooroo** · 04-17-2005, 12:45 PM

sorry damiongage, didnt realize you were so fragile.

A normal healthy young male produces about 70mg of test per week. So, if you shoot 100mg every 7-10 days as you mentioned and account for the ester weights you'll be basically shutting yourself down for nothing.

you should probably go to the doc to find out if your test levels are as high as they should be for your age. if you have a test deficiency your doc will probably prescribe some upjohn cyp. i use to work in a pharmacy- this is pretty common and your doc shouldnt have a problem doing it.
