    Latest Test Results / Switching to Injectible Test

    Been on TRT for approximately 3 months. Haven't noticed any differences
    in the way I feel, physically, mentally etc. No libido at all.
    Started with test in the 500 range, went down into 300 range then started TRT
    with 1ml 10%, switched to 2ml 10% and 1/2 Arimidex EOD
    (went to .25 EOD after repeated suggestions to others on this forum)

    SHBG 25.7 (13.0 - 74.0)
    Test 1036 (262 - 1593)
    Free Test (calc)2.2 (1.6 - 23.0)
    Free Test % 0.2 (1.2 - 3.2)
    Bio Avail (calc) 51.0 (36.0 - 562.0)
    Bio Avail % 4.9 (28.0 - 75.0)

    Estradiol U/S 48 (<or= 29)

    My Estradiol went down from 105. When I initially got my bloodwork
    before TRT it had registered < 10.

    My free and bio avail went down on latest bloodwork.
    Doc thought that I had some odd changes this time and
    that I convert a lot of Test to Estr.

    I'm switching to injectible Test this week from the compounded
    creme to see where my results go.

    Any wisdom from experience and knowledge is appreciated.

    150 per week.(I may split that into twice weekly injects)
    My script(s) is for 40ml per month.
    I'm glad you saw results quickly and I'm hoping I
    do too.

    LOL Yup.
    He wrote me a script for 30ml (I said I wanted it) and then wrote me one for 10ml. Probably an oversight on his part.
    My insurance paid for the 10ml and I paid cash for the 30ml at a different lab.
    So I either have a good backup supply or I have temptation to adjust my
    dosage....
    I have 3 refills each for now.

    We'll see if he'll rewrite them both after I've exhausted the refills.

    Gave myself my first Test injection on Sunday, my quad is still a bit sore now a couple days later, not too bad just sore.
    I took the whole 150 and am considering front loading a little by injecting another 150 tomorrow and going to 75 twice weekly next week. Any input? Thanks.
    It's nice not feeling the compounded creme on my arms all day.

    Hello Gotta

    i ended up doing two per week just to cut back on the soreness...wife does the injections but 150 still left my butt a little too sore so we went to 2X and have not looked back...no pun intended.

    That makes sense as far as volume, but you still get poked 2 times.....
    I feel like such a noob.
