    first cyp injection

    I recieved my first cyp inj. on the 2/19 200mg. OMG!!! what a feeling of bliss,strength,happy,wellness,no aches or pains for 5 days.Day six I crashed on the couch and slept for a few hrs.Days following I feel a tad bit better than before inj.Is this normal?Is the cyp still in me or is it gone?I called Dr. officeto ask and my doc wasn`t there but was told I may need a different kind of test for HRT.Nex app. with doc is 3/16 from what I have read here seems I should be getting inj. once a week.T/F? Am I jumping the gun?

    Normal startin TRT is 100mg a week, then dosed up accordingly. Need to post your stats and labs results with ranges.

    Heres a good primer to read and/or take with to Dr.http://www.allthingsmale.com/word_docs/TRT.doc

    Smaller weekly injections will keep you much more stable. You won't likely get the big highs but you also won't crash either. The goal of TRT is stabilize your T levels. Work with your doc and see if he will split your shots. If you are self administering cut the dose and do weekly injections.

    I am doing 100mg of Test-E once a week. Day 6 I start to feel just a little low but nothing like pre-TRT. I do my shot the morning of day 7 and by late morning I feel great.

    When you first start with trt most mds will give an initial higher dose. But you need a the very least 200 every other week, but 100mg once a week is best. When your follow up labs are done then you can adjust your dosage to levels best for you.

    my doc started me at 200mgs once a month too. I crashed and took more. I told him when I went back in a month later and he put me on weekly injections. After a week you should have about have of your dose still working for you. You will probably feel like sh*t until you take another shot. Is he running another blood test in a month?

    Ins should cover it. I hate to tell you but you only get this feeling the first time. Soon you will return to feeling normal. But normal to those of us who need trt is a fantastic way to be.

    The first time is the best and then you get use to it. It is still great though.

    You know, It`s nothing compaired to the first 5 days but I do feel better than pre inj.I`m a good bit more sensative down below so I know it`s working and the thoughts of sex are coming around.Before I would go for 2 weeks and not even think about sex.If any other new guys are reading this it`s TRULY AMAZING what trt will do for you!!!!!!! Just get over the pain of telling your DR. you have a limpy and do it!!

    Smaller more frequent injections should take away the big highs and bad crashes. Try to time your shots a day before the weekend. That way you are fully charged all weekend.
