Older males and HRT mg Question

[Hiphopharry]

I have a HRT question. In an older male (65 yo) who has been judged to have a very low test level ( under 280 ng/dl, I think the count was like 90) Will taking 100mg of Test Enan a week help at all, or would that only serve to shut off his remaining natural test production while not bringing his overall test levels up all that much anyway. I was thinking 1 ml of 200mg test enan a week minimum.

This is for my grandfather, and is doctor perscribed and all that good stuff. He's losing weight rapidly, fatigued, etc, for the past year, and his Dr. thought to test his test levels... Thanks

I think 100mg would be more than enough for someone his age to start to feel much better

OK first thing he needs to do is get a PSA test to make sure his Prostate is OK. Then he needs to also get his Estradiol levels checked as well, to much Estrogen can be even worse than not enough Testosterone. When he starts HRT he will be on for the rest of his life and yes, his natural Test production will be completely shutdown but who cares, it aint working properly anyway. I would suggest he starts on 100mg Test E a week and then get another Test about four weeks after he starts to see where that has taken his levels

Thanks for all the replies.
His Doc told him 100 mg a week, I'm more excited then he is!
