HRT and dosees needed to get results

[Steylios]

New here and love what I have read and learned allready,

What I need help with is dose amounts as I am on HRT for low "T" levels.
I take 200mg of test c every 2 1/2 weeks. I want to know if I will need to increase my dose dramatically as my levels are low allready? I have been a powerlifter for 10 years and want to make some major gains. Any help would be great, thanks

sorry I am on HRT due to testicular cancer 6 years ago

What was your starting Testosterone level? How often do you have bloodwork taken? What Test level does your doctor want you between?

[Steylios]

I get blood work done every 6 months, My count without help is around 110ng
He tries to keep me in the 300 to 600ng range. I hope that is what you asked for. thanks

I would split your current dose into 4 shots. It will make a HUGE difference in your energy levels.

This is the advice I was given:

I have seen absolutely NO difference in any way shape or form from administering testE once a week vs 2x a week when on a TRT dosing regiment since the dose is so low and the hormonal fluctuations are practically negligible. now if ur doing like 1g a week then yeah that 50% drop from the half life of the drug is going to be a drastic depletion in plasma levels since ur going from 1000mg to 500mg but when ur talking 50mg.. its really no big deal

I would split your current dose into 4 shots. It will make a HUGE difference in your energy levels.

Test C once a week much better than every 2 1/2 weeks. I wouldn't expect anything extraordinary with 600 test level. Some doctors do 200mgs every week.

This is the advice I was given:

Try to at least inject once a week. I guarantee you will feel better.

[Steylios]

Thanks for all the responses. I will try the once a week, and see how that goes. Also what should I increase to as I want to increase my over all mass? 200mg a week or more?

[NEMESIS RR]

I would find the dose that keeps you "normal" or "within range" for all of your bloodwork (estrogen, lipids, psa just to name a few) before you concern yourself with "over all mass."

did u tell ur doc that u are using for HRT. isn't he prescribing the dose based on ur bloodwork and not on ur bodybuilding/powerlifting goals. does he now ur want the gear to also improve ur sport? thanks.
