    Can you guys tell if test is underdosed by bloodwork at 4 weeks?

    Im going to do 500mg of test E per week to start. After the 4th week is completed Ill get bloodwork. Would you guys know at this point what the test level should be? I suspect Ive been using underdosed test and want to know for sure.

    Yes. But you should wait a little longer so that you can gauge your E2 levels and make any protocol adjustments needed. Wait another few weeks and your total test level should be just over 3000 ng/dl around week 8.

    Question is too broad. Normal range by Quest Diagnostics is 250-1100, the younger you are the higher it should be. Some folks have conditions that case Low T. Everyone is different.

    I understand what your saying but reason I said end of week 4 was I wanted to know where I stand before I add tren ace. I was going to do exemestane at 12.5mg everyday from day 1. So your saying estro protocol wont be accurate at end of week 4?

    4 weeks is too soon for a 12 week cycle (unless you plan on BW again in week 8). Not sure what you mean about "Where I stand before I add tren ace", this would be something you plan prior to cycling.

    Ok. but that's not how you plan a cycle. If your wait till week 8 to run tren , you won't have enough time with it.
