    I didnt do blood work at his office. I did it at my family dr.
    He didnt say when I would have to do blood work.I thought it was crazy. He said he does not write out scipts. So he gave me a shot of 400mg cyp and 3 loaded syringes. Told me to come back every 4 weeks for more test. For the test and visit it will be $116 every 4 weeks. Hell I was so excited I didnt even ask about an AI or a SERM.

    Are you going to take an AI or wait until a follow up visit? I would think 400mgs/week might get your estrogen up there.

    Do you guys think 400 should be a long term thing for TRT? Will there be any long term sides from this dose Or just the normal sides?

    yea thats a cycle, not TRT

    make sure you get ancillaries, like and AI and blood work to check estrogen and other functions

    oh, and give me your doctor's name and location, I want a doctor like that !!!












    J/K DO NOT give out the name of the doc on the open forum

    I was hoping you would jump in here T .

    So do you think It is going to be o.k. For ne to run this as my TRT?

    He put me on it I didnt even say anything. He just told me this is the max dose I can put you on. I said ALRIGHTY THEN.

    I though he wouldnt even give me TRT cuz of my age. My test level was 276 .

    I like the guy but I swear he has got to be close t 70

    Didnt read all the posts... My doc gives me 200mg depo-testosterone (test cyp) once a month because of my low free test level(57) cant imagine a doc giving out 400mg a week unless its one of those HT clinics in FL or wherever else they are...

    It depends on your goals

    IF you truly want TRT, then I would stock up on the test he is giving you and just shoot 200/week then you will have plenty when you want to run a cycle. Tell him you want to just shoot it at home so you don't have to come in for office visits every week

    400 is twice what the HIGH end of TRT. Will you be OK, YES you will be fine as long as you monitor your estrogen and prolactin and organ functions

    I just started the treatment. My doc said he will check the test in my serum a few weeks after my second injection. I know I could go through a clinic that specializes in HT, but Id rather pay black market prices for powder and convert my own.... I know 200mg test cyp a month is a joke. It was when I found out my levels were so low that I decided to start cycling again. Im 33 years old.

    I would say your doc is trying to jack you up fast at which point he will dial back the dose. Personally I would order some sterile vials and inject the extra in to to that leaving me with 100-150mg per week.
    That would allow me to stock pile test for rainy days and all that cause I am greedy!

    You need to tell your dr that 50mg of test a week is lower that a health man produces naturally in a week and he is waisting you money . Not to mention your time.

    Same dosage that my co-workers husband was put on! I feel for him because he is going to crash in a few weeks and go from that first HRT high we all get to crashing.
    I warned him though and he doesn't want to switch to my doc so

    I have 3 syringes I could take them down to 200mg each and save the rests. I just dont like the idea Of bouncing around on dosages

    Plus I have been so messed up for so long. Ill run this shit like it is and enjoy the shit out of it.

    its going to be what 6 weeks before he retest? Hell treat it like a mini cutting cycles I guess.
    I say that because rite now I am on 400mg a week of test as well granted not per my script mind you.
    Going from low to the way I feel now I will say be careful you do not try to strap on a cap and jump off your roof superman style because it feels awesome!!!

    Money isnt an issue at all because of my insurance, but I do plan on asking the doc to up it to at least two 200mg inj EO week, but like i said, ive got a good source so im not too worried about it, ill just need to make sure i dont have a lot of test in my system when I go in for the screening...

    Like people have already said - at 400gm a week I would seriously watch your estrogen - If your doc is gonna be generous like that you may as well make the best of it and not let something little screw it up.

    I feel you 100%. This is a subject that can get a dr in trouble. I just got lucky. And he didnt mess around. He said injectable is the only eay to go.Told me he was not going to put me on a rollercoster. He said he was going to get me back to where I need to be.

    Honestly......I would be suspicious of your Doc's credentials. 400mg a week is way too much for TRT! That would push your Test above 1000 and I don't believe a reputable Doc would recommend such high levels for an extended period. Most Doc's would have you come to them for EVERY injection just to control the injection process.
    If this were me, I would inject 200mg per week for the next few weeks and have my levels checked at that point. If 200mg doesn't get you where you want to be on TRT, you can always adjust up. If it does, save the excess for a real cycle.

    I'm on 200mg EOW to start - I don't have anything yet. First bloodwork will tell the tale. At 400mg EW I would be shocked if you didn't have some kind of problem with your levels that would drag you down.

    Sorry

    At 400mg a week I am pretty certain your estrogen levels are going to drag you down. I would be very surprised if it didn't. At 200mg a week I have to take arimidex . Now since my new doc took me off cream I'm on 200mg every other week. Not really enough to worry about it.

    It wouldn't shock me that when you get your levels re-checked you're sitting in the neighborhood of 1000. Also, with that, it wouldn't shock me if you estrogen levels were out of whack also. I think what your doctor is doing is starting you high an dthen will settle you down on a lower dose based on your body and how it responds.

    Right now I'm on one shot every other week. Right now I'm not on anything. If I get bumped to every week like I'm hoping I'll be able to tell you more.
