    Blood Work is easy to do.

    Went to PrivateMDLabs.com and Got the Hormone Panel for Females(way less than for males)
    They have an option for male use of this test btw.
    IT was 66.99, but I used a retailmenot coupon for 12% off.
    This is the results of my pre-cycle workup.
    So worth the money to see where your at. No excuse not to do this. Less than 60dollars gets you all of this.

    How old are you? I ask as your test level is very low and you should investigate this before you cycle.

    Then I'd look into that issue first. From what you've posted your LH/FSH levels are great but your test levels are still poor. What this probably indicates is that the failure is testicular related. Any trauma to your boys in your lifetime?

    Simply optimizing your hormones via TRT will do wonders for you without cycling. You'll be amazed.

    And welcome to the forum richie.

    thanks for the response bro. I am doing just that trt, not cycling. I am high bf as well, and I think that has alot to do with my test levels. I just ran 300mg test c. 48 hour after injection test went from 315 to 1373. estridoil shot right up too. I need at least .5mg adex eod. I think my gear is fine, and my level would be better if I was normal bf.

    Are you running 300mg a week at one injection? Maybe break that up into two injections a week at half the dosage, if it is just TRT 300 is a bit high

    Well, like goalinmind referenced twice weekly injections of a smaller amount would be prudent for you. Less injected at one time equals less conversion of T to E. 300 mgs is not really a TRT dose. High end TRT would be around 200 mgs but very few actually need this amount. Test peaks in 24 hrs or so and has a half-life of about 5 days, which again gives credence to twice weekly injections of smaller amounts. Consider maybe 75 mgs x 2 per week and retest hormones in 4 weeks or so. This will also minimize the amount of adex needed. Reducing body fat % will also help over time as you know.

    Thanks for the advice here guys. I will definitely do the twice a week schedule, I have even heard of a every 3 day for Test C which is 7 times over 3 weeks verses 6, but the math gets crazy. Read a good TRT book and the Doc set me straight. I suppose running 300/w is high. I might do 250/w see where that gets me at .5 adex eod. I think with my bf levels and size, 200 may not get me any anabolic results. Im going to convert a shit tone to e with my bf levels and im 6'3'' large frame. I am still young at 40 and I don't care about fertility anymore (3kids and done). I want to bulk a little lol. I will always take feedback, I never stop learning. Thanks Brothers

    You need to drop the dose substantially. It will lead to RBC issues down the road. Basically make your blood thick. Seriously consider what I recommended which was 75 x 2 or at the most 100 x 2 and check bloods in 4 weeks. The more frequent injections will keep your levels higher while using less T as well as less estrogen conversion. You simply will not have the trough levels that come with once weekly injections.

    Right now I wouldn't worry about "anabolic " results. Worry about dialing in a healthy protocol and losing weight. Bulking now is the last thing you need to do to be honest. I'd suggest visiting the Nutrition Forum and posting up some questions. Basically Nutritionists for free over there and they can help you. Once you achieve your goal weight then consider bulking/cycling etc.

    When it comes to an AI I'd still be very cautious with .5 adex eod. That's a dose most guys would run on about 750 mgs test per week.
