What would happen if you would inject 40 mg of test a week

[proteinshake1992]

My dear friends,

What would happen if you would inject 40 mg of test weekly.

1. Would your body compensate for the amount that you're not giving it. Let's say your normal production would be 70mg a week.
OR
2. Would your body shut down and run only on the little amount of test you provide it with?

Thanks

^^^ x2

the only thing it could change is the rate a which you get shutdown...

maybe it will takes few months to reach 0 insted of few weeks.

but one thing is sure you wont get any benefit from it.

I vote for suppression.

If you were to normally produce 70mg/week and start to inject 40mg/week... My guess is your body would produce around 15mg/week, leaving you with less than being natural.
However, I don't think you would be completely shut down.

However, this is just a guess.

#2 something exogeniuses=no natty production...someone should test this

Any answer to this would be a guess.

Do your blood work...see where you are at. Try and test again in 4-6 weeks.

#3 Why would you even want to do this?

If you are thinking your test levels are lower than what it should be then trying to supplement it and using 40mg a week then at best your body would stop producing that amount and you are still going to be low.

You should test it, anyways the whole shut down thing is a guess, I mean, I have mates they don’t even feel shutdown after a normal cycle (they never do PCT).
Others like me gets shutdown after days.

Do not try it.
Run a cycle correctly or don't bother.
We are not lab rats that just try crap and see how it works out

why would anyone run 40mgs of test per week?
what on earth do you think this will achieve?

[proteinshake1992]

Guys the only reason to do this would be to make it more obviously to the doc that you need trt. Not all of us live in the US where trt is super populair.

why do you want to go on trt when you don't need to!!!

+40mg test could be interresting indeed if you don't shut down. you can have very high test levels year round, you will see difference for shure. but the most probable thing will happen, your body will adapt to the exogenous test by suppressing FSH and LH....
But if you still want to have more test without touching your HPTA, you could still try to dose exemestane. maybe you won't get 40mg surplus, but you might get something.

Please don't listen to the above guy, he really doesn't know what he is doing.

You cannot add exogenous test and expect your test levels to raise for more than a day or 2. It's just part of the natural feedback loop. Even if 40 mg is less then your body produces your body will see that test and reduce it's output to compensate for what your body or Brian thinks your level should be. This will put you right back to either we're you started at or lower. More than likely it will put you lower. Not worth it

Ok that make sense now. It's a stupid idea 100% but makes sense.

Go ask anyone in the HRT section (myself included) who are on HRT and everyone will tell you the would 100% rather have normal T levels and not be on HRT.

That's more or less it.

At best, your body will adapt to only decrease production to compensate the exogenous T. At worst it will fiddle with normal fluctuations and shut you down.
Please keep in mind that the negative feedback loop is not that straight-forward, other factors affect it too, with the most pronounced being the diurnal cycle (high T in the morning, low on evening).

Although, I can think offhand of a case that a low dose of exogenous T will not hamper LH secretion: oral undecanoate (Andriol) is not suppressive for LH. So, we can be definite on our answer "we don't know"..

I'll bet my money on shutdown though due to messing with GnRH pulses.
