    Just started HRT - questions, any advise appreciated.

    Thanks to everyone for all the great info on this forum. My doctor started me on testoterone depot(hope spelling is correct). It has been 4 weeks and I have added 1/2 to my arms and 2 inches to my chest. Every day I go to the gym it seems like I add more weight to the bar. Every morning I wake up with a rock hard rod like I am 17 again. Is this the fountian of youth?

    I have changed my diet and get about 150 grams of protein per day. I am 40 years old, 5'9" tall, 208 lbs. I have been lifting since I was 20.

    I am taking 300mg every three weeks injected in the buttock. The doctor said I can continue at this dose indefenitely. Will I eventually level off? Is this sufficient to continue growth? Should I stack with any other gear? Is there anything I should be doing differently? Should I push my Doc for a higher dose? Any and all opinions are welcome.

    Bro,
    change your injection schedule to 100 mg per week. Your levels will stay much much better! Test Depot is Test Cyp.

    Based on my limited experience and from what I've read here and on other sites re: HRT -- 100mg per week is a very good way to implement a TRT program. With 300mg every 3rd week, you're still getting 100mg per week, but you're getting a huge spike the first few days and then a progressive drop off toward the next injection date. 100mg per week keeps your levels much more stable, and that's what I'm on.

    1/2" on your arms and 2" on your chest in 4 weeks? hmmmm ok well at that rate you will be bigger than Arnold in no time. Considering that test usually takes 4 weeks to even kick in it's a pretty good trick.
