Test-E

**Firestorm#1** · 07-07-2010, 01:30 PM

My doctor put me on Test-E due to low test levels. I have been working out for over a year. The doctor has me on 500mg every 4 days. I feel great and have some great gains. Do I need to cycle on and off test-e? I have heard several things about receptors and I am not sure if I will need to cycle this or can I stay on this amount for now on? Also, I was thinking of adding a prohormone to the cycle. I am 41 at 215 lbs. I work out 5 days a week at a local gym. Thanks

Who the hell is your doc? That seems a bit high for a "therapeutic" dose!

Don't believe you!

**Firestorm#1** · 07-07-2010, 01:39 PM

I told him what I was taking and that I did not have any effect on a low dosage. He set me up with this from the start. I was already use to taking 1200mg every 8 days.

Don't belive what? This is what the doc put me on. I came clean and told him that I did not want to use underground anymore and my test levels were 125. He wrote me for what I was responding too.

I went to a urg and he wanted to put me an the cream. I ask my doctor and he said he could treat me for low test levels. I told him that I could not feel any differance in 200mg a week. I increased the amount until I could feel a differance.

That Doctor shall be losing his license soon

**Firestorm#1** · 07-07-2010, 03:56 PM

I came here for advise. All I got was judged.

**Dizz28** · 07-07-2010, 04:06 PM

Sorry, "Do I need to cycle on and off test-e?"

If you are taking it for TRT, no you don't need to cycle on and off of it because all you are supposed to be doing in that case is replacing your natural testosterone levels . You would maintain that level for most of the rest of your life. The levels your Doc has you at are not TRT levels... hence my comment. That's more like 10x the average male's test levels

It would still be up to him whether he cycles you off or cycles you down to lower levels... not any of use

**Firestorm#1** · 07-07-2010, 04:21 PM

Thanks. My test levels were 125 and he said he can put me in the 8 to 900 range. I just did not feel any different when I was taking 600mg per 8 days. I went to 1000mg every 8 days and felt a differenace. One good issue is that my insuarnace pays for 3 5ml viles. It only cost me $10 per script. Should I also take a prohormone? Thanks

Now you know why your natural levels are so low!

If you are on test for TRT you do not need to cycle. Having said that, the dosage is WAY high for TRT... i'm not judging you or knocking you, but i'd go see another doctor for a second opinion.

Thanks for your comments. I do not want a second opinion. I want my test levels high as I can get them. I have had great results in the gym with my test levels in the higher range. If I went to another doctor and he put me on a low dosage, what benifit would that have? This doctor is a local family doctor and he told me that he treats this for alot of people. I am not only wanting treatment for TRT, I want a little extra help in the gym. Great results so far.

So you plan on running 1 gram of test/week for the rest of your life? Do you realize how pointless and unhealthy that is?

**Noles12** · 07-07-2010, 11:35 PM

I would never run test that high for life. Your doctor is in for a short career if he feels a gram of test will put you in the 800 range.

Man, you cant feel like superman forever, you should know this unnatural feeling will became also unhealthy at the long run
I DOUBT your libido werent fine at 600mg/week and you could also have great gains with that too, you just need to EAT properly

**awms** · 07-08-2010, 08:06 AM

theres no way this is true...you felt nothing form 600mg a week? HOW!????? now your doc puts you one almost 1000mg a week? No doc in their right mind would do that...do you realize how much test that is? I know guys who are 250-300lb bodybuilders who have done many cycles and still hardly ever reach doses of 1000mg a week.

If it is true that you didnt feel anything on 600mg a week then it was one of two things or both.

1. Since its test E it has a half life of 10 days and will take atleast 2-4 weeks to feel "it".

2. You diet and training are poor and you didnt notice anything.

**awms** · 07-08-2010, 08:08 AM

Im on 375mg of test a week now and my libido is sky high! and I have put on 10lbs....you were taking almost double and now triple.

**bmit** · 07-08-2010, 11:40 AM

I am on HRT of 340mg test week. Noticed huge improvement in first months but since being on for almost two years it is like not being "on" anymore. Point being, you and your body get attenuated and adapted to dosages (ex. the heroin addict who can shoot enough junk to kill a horse but is for him now a daily dose.). So this extreme dose may be what is necessary for this guy to feel normal. However, i would suggest he taper down to a more reasonable dose for long range concerns.

What I am doing is true. I am not writing this for my enjoyment. I want some genuine advise. I may have not given the 600mg enought time to take effect. You must remember that everybody responds different to meds. You can not compare one to the other and expect the same results. These bodybuilders you know, what are their test levels?

Your responce makes sense. I may try to lower the dosage. I would like to add in some prohormones if they woruld help. Thanks

I dont understand why you ask what are there test levels?
when you inject synthetic test your own natty test productions stops
so stating what your levels are or there levels are have nothing to do with how high your levels are when injecting synthetic test

**scotty51312** · 07-08-2010, 07:24 PM

from a newbie if I couldn't trust my doc's judgment on low t treatment I'd find a new doc.

**Myalansky** · 07-09-2010, 11:30 AM

Maybe your doc is running some kind of experiment on you.

**awms** · 07-09-2010, 05:44 PM

I know top level bodybuilders who dont go over 1000mg of test a week and there big guys! Mind you yes they are stacking other things with test but these are guys who are 240lbs at 4-5% bf and have run cycles for years...Im not douting what you are saying but I would question your doctor! Have you ever thought that perhaps its not your test levels that are causing those problems? mabey you have some other medical problem that you arnt aware of?

the avg male male make 30-70mg of test a week (70mg being extremely)...so we will say on avg most men make around 50mg of test a week.

In test cyp or enth there is around 70mg of actual test per 100mg so If your doc had you on 200mg ever 2 weeks that would put most men in the "high range" of test...your doc put you on about 6 times that! you at the moment have what about 6-10 times the test of the acg man!!! If you cant feel anything with in 2-5 weeks then there has to be somthing eles going on? or you have fake gear...but I highly dout that.

Get some more test done bro doctors can and have been wrong before. Good luck!
