What would you do?

[bobofet]

I am 35, soon to be 36, I qualify for HRT/TRT, and have been on cycle for 9 wks at 500 mg/wk. I don't plan on having anymore children and don't care about requiring a wkly shot. So the question is, would you end the cycle as planned or drop the dose to an HRT 100mg/wk and cruise for a couple of mos. untill next cycle and then repeat? Seriously considering the latter. Thoughts for both sides appreciated.

There are proper ways of going on trt/hrt. If you plan on getting blood work done a few times threw out the year I see no problem with it.

How do you know you qualify for TRT?

Did you have low test before your cycle?

[ninesecz]

that nis whats known as cruising and blasting... if you qualified for trt why arent you on it? did your doc tell you they wanted to put you on it and you said no? or our you just figuring

I dont understand both sides? of what!! if your going on HRT you simpley drop down to the HRT dose inbetween the cycles your considering. When you ask for both sides whats the alternative your thinking of?

[c-Z]

I dont understand the dropping it too 100mg/wk and cruising for a couple months. thats not trt.

Thats just cruising.and stopping. trt is more permanent?

He says HRT and cycle then repeat, but whats his alternative he is asking about? there isnt one is there!! if your on HRT your on HRT end off! dont understand what he wants to know

[c-Z]

Oh i'm screwing myself up.....

he will be finishing his cycle shortly... And wants to drop to a dose of 100mgs ew. for a few months and then blast... So bascially a cruise and blast....

Don't most trt/hrt patients get a higher dose the 100mgs?

I guess he wants to know if that is ok... SINCE he has already qualified for it.

[marcus300]

I think this is all guess work until we here from the OP, HRT dose is different in different countries, the average starting HRT dose where I am from is 125mgs per wk or 250mgs every 14 days

Actually 100mg a week is the most common trt dose prescribed! it is what i am prescribed! Some get a higher dose but as my doctor explained, most do not really need anything higher than that!

hummm intersting... i hear a lot around the 200 mark. ive heard as high as 250mg.

[gymnerd]

OP I would just come off. Get tested if you need it you need it.

[bobofet]

Well I guess my biggest concern is whether it is worth the hassles and expense of going thru pct when my natty test isn't to good anyhow. Are there any serious dangers with cruising and blasting that I am not considering?

[bobofet]

And it don't have to be 100 a week, I just thought that was what most peeps do when they cruise.

i was put on 100mg a week to start. My blood levels on that were above normal. I'm just happy they didn't cut it down.

If your natural test levels are that low you need HRT, so you wont need to do any PCT.
