I just started also at 200mg X 2 a month. I hear it is better to take once a week and even better yet every third day (E3D). So 400mg is good in my book maybe to much for just starting HRT. But like I said I am a newbie to also. My labs were

Total Testoserone 209 L REF (241-827) ng/dl
Free Testosterone 10.6 REF (6.8-21.5) pg/ml

Symptoms same as you and a few more. I am also 50 years old.

My doc has me on 1cc twice a week,(sypionate) I`m 43. I`m not sure what my testosterone level was. I have been on it for 8 weeks now. Big differerce, When i started i was at 177lbs. now I`m pushing 185lbs. The only thing that i have noticed is i get the night sweats about 3 times a week. Why does everybody use mg and not cc ??? is 100mg=to 1cc ?????

Because juice is dosed differently per cc. Read the bottle, some is 250mg/ml (or cc, same thing) some is 300mg/ml some is 50mg/ml

i took the page from Hale's book and went Friday morning and Monday afternoon....energy is much more stable...in fact i don't notice the up from the sticks anymore....more an even keel...as far as everyone is concerned i am still doing it once per week....go to any vet supply store and you can get pins to twist on, twist off.....so the count on syringe will not be beyond your script...

[Coach 44]

It's great that you found a doc that started you on injections. Most of us (I guess because of health insurance) start with the test gel and after becoming tired of the routine each day, took it upon ourselves to learn here our options. Keep us posted on your progress. Good Luck!

nice hrt dose...it's been 2 weeks....how's it going for you?

[barondumonde]

damn,

I have a lower testosterone level than dragonfly and I'm only 20...I am really looking into taking some but I don't feel comfortable with the idea that my nuts are going to shrink.

Why ? I can never understand what the issue is with shrinking nuts !!! You can do a couple of shots of HCG a week and they wont ever shrink anyway

Thanks Whiteowl. I have gotten a new doctor since my lat post here. I am currently on 200mg T-CYP weekly. this was helping then my Estrogen went high on me. I am taking Arimdex .50 EOD and will se if this helps. I will ask him if i can start 75mg E3D when I see him in 2 weeks. I am sure he will let me. Also Iam going to ask for HCG . He wants me to take HGH but i am not sure about this yet.

cc doesn't convert to mg. If you are using a 100mg/ml vial, 1 cc is 100mg. If you are using a 200mg/ml vial then 1 cc is 200mg. I believe the night sweats are a common side.

I like my more tidy nuts. They aren't all floppy anymore.

[whiteowl]

your business has to be in action before anyone might note the size of your boys....without the test, JR will not be out and about and no one will have a chance to note how the twins are doing.....so you gotta ask yourself......personally...ill go with the shrinkage as long as JR is still pokin' fun at the missus
