    i have been on test cyp 200mg every 10 days for about 3 weeks, and i still have low libido. My doctor precribed this for me cause of my past pro-hormone use that messed up my system.But the problem is that 2 days ago i checked my level : test 1860<250-830>, estogen 23, with these numbers i would think sex drive should be at the roof. i'm so confused cause i got on it because of my low testosterone i have had for about a year, thinking that this would solve the problem of low test. i will be going back to my doctor for a full panel hormone test. But can somebody help me understand what's going on this situation.

    Some people respond better to lower test than high which yours is very high for HRT. You may try cutting your dose in half and see how you feel after a month.

    read the exact hormone name off the bloodwork test..especially for the estrogen...is that total estrogen and include ranges...that looks like a good number for estradiol but maybe not for total estrogen...are you ONLY on test...are you on ANYTHING else...anti d's? pain meds? ANYTHING?
    u gettin sleep?
    is it your drive/desire or ed issues?

    sorry to hear bro...maybe the full panel will shed some light..

    how old are u bro...other stats? diet?

    high T doesn't equal high libido and great gains at the gym. if that were the case we'd all be doing 500mg/week. you'd probably do alot better on half your dose.

    is it your drive/desire or ed issues? it's the desire and drive. i had a constant errcetion just for abt 2 weeks i got on it and after that it's been down hill, or maybe i just need to give a little time.

    i'm 28yrs old, yea that was the total estradol and to my suprise it wasn't the estrogen problem.i don't take any other thing except for my hrt test cyp. i will try cutting my dose into half(100mg every 10 days) and see where it takes me and mean while i will go back to my doctor for more bloodwork and see what he says.

    It will be interesting to see what your free t and the rest of your numbers look like.

    Say you took your shot on day 1, on what day did you get testing?

    very important, my father in law tested 1650 he shot up the day before, then lied to the doc and told him it was a week earlier... he is on 200 mgs of test c eoweek... the doc cut his dose in half and same issue with you felt like crap. the point is when did you shoot to before the blood test?

    very true!!! that high test doesnt equal high sex drive... i get a huge labito when my hormones are ramping up and coming down... but,during the cycle my labito def slows down... ronnie rowland - auther of sling shot training recommends taking 8 weeks at full dose and 2 weeks at half dose lowering protine intake and that seems to keep my labito jumping thru the roof!!!! just a suggestion.

    also, i get a higher sex drive from test e than test c -no clue why?

    ok i got good news from my doctor, he finally found the problem with my system. He found out that my adrenal gland is not producing enough dhea which he later put me on a DHT prescription with conjunction of my Hrt. I feel alot better so far and i have started working out again to burn my stubborn fat i accumulated during low testosterone period. Now i really can tell why it's called the fountain of youth because i can really see the difference, and the spontaneous errection is greatI just wanna say thanks to the people on this forum that shaded some light to this path for me
