    Question Advice for 1st timer

    Hey guys I have been researching this site for a couple of months now,gained lots of info and was preparing for a 1st cycle of test only with proper pct,was about to purchase pct,but went to my doctor for blood work first.Well I got the results I'm 34 worked out for many years,have decent size everything came out fine except my test levels were low(don't know why never done steroids ),but last few years my energy levels have been low,doc said sometimes body does this naturally(even at my age-sucks)so he prescibed me with test cyp 200mg a month,then do blood work in 3 months.What do you suggest,wait and see how treatment goes,or do I add some more test myself if so how much more?Now I don't know what to do as my original plan is thrown off by my blood work test.By the way free testoeterone was 29.6 (normal=37-81).Any Info would be very appreciated.Love this site,great learning here.
    Thanks

    Good chance to learn how your body will react, before you jump all the way in. Eventhough thats a lite doseage.

    nice post ili - good 2 see that u are reading and enjoying the site and you come with a good question. for starters 200mg a month isnt going to do squat. having said it does not surprise me that you doc recommended that to you as he's not going to tell u to do 500mg a week.

    for starters - how old are u and what are your stats?

    i know an old guy at my gym that is on prescribed test therapy he said he shoots 500 mg a wk until 2 wks before his dr appointment(may even be longer) then he backs off on it or his dr will freak. either way ur test levels are suppressed so u can follow the drs orders or do a cycle with proper pct then get a second opinion its up to u!

    Ok cool thanks for replies,so I could bump up the dosage,stop 3 weeks before the bloodwork,do pct,let doctor keep injecting me with his dosage of 200 mgs per month or maybe wait a month after prescribed shot to see how my body reacts?
