    1 CC test = 200 mg?

    My TRT doctor is old and a little senile I think. Everyy time I see him he contradicts himself and gives me different info, so I just wanted to be sure. I am injecting 1 cc of test cyp a week. Is this equal to 200mg?

    He also has me on 1 mg of Arimidex to take 3 x's a week - Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Is this a little high?

    yes...like plzr8 said...if the vial says 200mg per ml then yes 1 cc is 200mg
    because 1ml =1cc
    arimidex once again is not dosed the same for EVERYBODY as is any dose...to be sure you have to keep your test and estrogen tested during your therapy
    .25mg every other day is a very common dose but it is not gospel

    Adex is way to high IMO. Is this turkey testing your Estradiol levels to see what the adex is doing ?

    I just got my blood drawn Friday so I am waiting for results. I have to go through Quest, so it take a little longer than normal. I'll check it out when I get results back.

    I run my Adex at .5mg twice a week. I got a little nipple tenderness after I started with test-cyp and the Adex wiped it all out. Great stuff!!!!!

    I was getting some tenderness but it went away a long time ago. I have had nothing since. At 200mgs cyp do you think I need any adex? Under what circumstances would you demand Estradiol blood work?


    Sorry if I hijacked.

    My estradiol came back at 22 out of a range of 13-54. How does that sound? My test was high, which is cool. Total was 1934 and free was 576.3 out of a range of 35-155. Obviously my doctor wants me to take it down a dose. He recommends going from 200 mg a week to 200 mgs every 10 days.

    My last total test was in the 1500's and I am dosing at 200mgs every two weeks. I would try the 10 day plan according to your doctor and see what happens. Estro looks good.
    Good luck,
    CR

    When your doctor saw that it was 1500, did he tell you to go down?

    No, Since I am using his protocol for injections, there's nothing he could say other than just continue with what you are doing. I'm using the Arimidex without him knowing. I asked for it and he just blew me off, I knew what I needed and what to do, so I got some Arimidex and use it twice weekly at
    a .5mg twice a week.

    Estradiol is perfect !!! I think you should drop the Test to 100mg per week

    Are we talking cycle doses or is this a forever dose?

    The reason that I ask is because everything that I have read says that 500 mgs per week is about normal dosing.

    Just curious about the context here. Thanks

    My doctor prescribed me 3mg of Arimidex a week (3 doses) for my cycle:

    400mg Test Cypionate ew
    300mg Nandralone Decanoate ew

    At the advise of PerfectBeast I decided not to touch the arimidex unless I got some signs of sides. I'm on week 10 and my nipples were only a little sore for about a day on week 6. I held off on the arimidex and the soreness went away on its own.

    Beast also recommented that if I did start to get sides to do .25mg every day.

    It was deffinately good advise.

    HRT dose, although I am thinking about cycling off and back on; not sure yet and have not been on long enough. I am where I want to be right now as far as test level. I wanted it up a little higher than the high range for recovery purposes. I have been training twice a day 6 days a week.
