Starting dosage for TRT?

[frawnz]

I just got my RX for Test C. Dr. wants me to do 200mg, every 2 weeks. I plan on doing 100mg/week for a more balanced level, but I'm unsure of what dosage to start at. Should I do the full 200mg injection and then a week later start the 100mg, or wait 2 weeks for the 100 mg... or just start at 100mg from the get go?

Also, what is the best time of day for injection? I get up at 245 AM during the week. I work out around 3 PM most days.


Thanks for the input.

100 mg per week is a pretty standard dose. after about a month you will start to level out the time of day you do your inject doesnt matter as long as you do it every 7 days at close to the same time.

I'm on a fixed prescription, so that isn't an option.

From what I've read, most people are on the same dosage as I am. (either 100mg/week or 200mg every 2 weeks). This is my first time ever injecting steroids , so no point in going straight to a high dosage when I may not need it.

where was ur test at when you got tested? I dont even know if i would notcice a differance at 100mg a week.

295 when I started TRT.

I started at 150mgs every 6 days and was bumped to 200 after 3 months. I take hcg every other month now along with the test.

[TRT2010]

hearing this makes me hope again i get to stay at 250. i dont knwo when he will be giving me HCG though. time will tell. did they give you any AI?

FYI- Weekly is *much* better than every two weeks. You wont get that roller coaster effect if you go weekly.

When I started, my Total T was 174 and I began with a 200 mg shot my first day, then 3 days later I began the Testim 5% gel and continued the 200mg shots once a month. After 4 months, my T was up to 465 so I then upped the shots to every two weeks. After 6 months, it was up to 735. Eventually, after about 9 months, I went to straight Test Cyp injections and got off the gel. At that time I was doing 200mg weekly. Afte 11 months total, my T was at 1132 so I back it down to 180mg weekly and that brought my Total T to 923 as of a couple weeks ago. I'm now injecting 150 weekly and I also started injecting twice a week, [.75mg each time about 6 weeks ago] and I feels the most even now.

wow glad to hear it

100 mg per week will probably keep most at normal levels. If you do 200 eow and have your blood drawn right before your next injection your levels will be low and you may be able to have them up your dose. Depends on what you want to do. I prefer just to do 100 ew and then just cycle when i want. You stay much more stable this way and 100 ew keeps my levels in the high 800 all the time.

Yes, 3 times a week. 200mg put me around 700 total t.

probably to late but i would pin 200 then go to 100 per week

Like most are saying, stick with 100mg/wk, at least for the first 6 weeks. Run BW at 6 weeks, review your levels, and make the incremental adjustments to your program thereafter.

I went with just 100mg in my quad. Just ordered better syringes online cuz using their pharmacy supplied 22g was not fun.
