    Dr. Lowered by dose

    Went back to the doc a few weeks ago to get BW done after 6 weeks of TRT and my test came back at almost 1200 TT and 268 FT. These were based on Quest values. I had been taking 150mg per week with 500 IU HCG and .5mg Arimidex . I admit that I was probably taking a little more than that, but the syringes the pharmacy gave me suck and I can't get all of the oil out when injecting. I always load a little extra for that reason. Plus, I have run cycles in the past and can't help the urge to up the dosage a little. I know the dosage was a little high but my natural test levels are pretty low. I started TRT with TT level of 268 and FT level of 62. When the Dr. weighed me, I had put on 8 pounds in 6 weeks. When he got my blood tests back he called and told me to lower my dosage down to 120mg per week and come back in 30 days.

    I lowered the Test dosage but I don't feel as good. Could all be mental but we'll see what the blood work says when I go back. Still trying to figure out a good dose on the Arimidex. E2 levels pre-TRT were 28. At the time of last blood work they were still in the low 20's. That was on .75mg Arimidex a week. Now i'm down to taking .5mg per week but still cry like a little girl while watching TV. Might just cut out the AI altogether and see what happens.

    As you mentioned...really consider cuttin that AI out now & check in a month to see what that 120 does for ya along with the 500 weekly HCG . Will make your next adjustment much more simple if needed.

    This ^^. Stick to your prescribed dose until securely dialed in via blood work. Then if you're going to cycle you'll know exactly where to fall back to.
