how long to bottom out test?

I know this has been gone over before but I could not find a thread.
I am looking for a new endo doctor because of being unhappy with the one I have now.
My test has to be below 300 to qualify at the new clinic not a problem on normal basis.

I was running test e at 600 a week when I ended my cycle. Half life is about 10 days if I figure this right it will take about 6 weeks for it to be completely out of my system and be back to natural levels?

Just wondering if I am figuring this correctly?

Nope it depends on how much and how long you have been injecting. The bigger the injection the longer it takes to dissipate. 125mg vs 250mg graph looks different, the peak isn't twice as high. Coming off a cycle it will take long for all the residual test to get used up.

From personal experience I was on cycle 250mg E3D for 12 weeks, then 100-120mg per week for a couple weeks, then no injection for 24 days and test level was 10nmol exactly 300ng/dL just enough to convince my doc. but I am a slow metabolizer - takes 6 weeks for test E to kick in.

In 6 weeks your HPTA might wake up...
