Can a particular testosterone dose be compared to our normal levels?

[DKZ]

I was just wondering if a particular testosterone dose (any particular ester) can be compared to a humans natural testosterone production? I know this would differ between different males seeing as though our testosterone levels differ but is there are generally accepted dose? Guys familiar with TRT might be able to help me with this one

Thanks

Ester attachment are the release of the hormone, not the amount which is released. the common esters used in trt are entanate and cyponate but I think that's more for the little frequency of administering.

About 125-200mgs a week depending on age and sleep

About half this^ 35-175 mg. High levels of albumin and SHBG may require higher doses to get appropriate "free" levels.

As far as mg per mg Test suspension I believe is supposed to be the "purest" because it has no esther. so if you inject 37mg of suspen then you get 37mg of test.

i thought that the average male produced 70mg per week and that meant that if you shot 100mg of test cyp with its esther being around 30 this will leave you with that same 70mg..

this is just based on reading posts here for years and i thought thats what i heard...i know the 100mg test cyp part yielding the 70 is within 1 or 2

i retain only info that is used mostly and since i shoot anywhere from 100-300 every week of the year i figure it irrelevant to me anyway

this is more along what i heard too.. except younger twenties/teens are like 150mg or something like that.

the avg male make 30-70mg a week 30 being the low end and 70 very high.

100mg test cyp is more like 75mg because of the ester (give or take I think its about 75mg) and since the half life is 12 days most docs will prescribe 200mg every two weeks.

p.s if your 18 and only producing 30 mg you are still considered normal which is sad really because at that age it should be double that....but in the medical world and in your doctors eyes that is "normal".

pretty sure i said that...

and about the 30-70...thats news...but we're here to learn...maybe healthy male makes a difference?

Its a general out dated range that most doctors use...its like saying from the age of 18-50 you test should be 30-70mg which is completely ridiculous because of course an 18 year olds test levels should be much higher then a 50 year olds. That why you cant always trust your doctor to read your blood tests properly...personally if I was a doctor and I came across an 18-25 year old with the testoserone that you would typically see in somone 40-50 I would be concerned...always ask for your test results.

Thanks guys...so if you shot 100mg of test cyp a week you should see no real change in terms of bodybuilding and relative side effects? Assuming your natural test was around 70mg

correct u just confirmed that 100mg of test cyp is equal to roughly 70mg...

and if you are producing 70mg on your own i might add...u would be doing an injustice to yourself by doing so...you would be telling your body to stop producing said 70mg by shooting it into your muscles and if done long enough you likely wont be making those 70mg anymore...is this going somewhere?

I am not sure what the OP was trying to ask, but from what I know. Naturally each individuals metabolism/physiology will affect how much free test is seen in the bloodstream as a result of the injection of X amount of test.

As far as 100mg being a waste? It all depends on what you wish to achieve. If you are trying to add 15 lbs of muscle in 8 wks then yeah 100mg will not result in a level of free test sufficient to promote these kind of gains. If on the other hand you seek to use achieve test levels that place you in the upper 25% of most 25 yr olds and your natural levels are at half of what a 25yr old should be then 100mg may be sufficient to achieve these goals.

Yeah, I think it depends on the person it seems like some ppl need bigger doses to bring them into normal levels. 100 mg of test cyp = 70mg of testosterone hormone and that is supposed to be a full replacement dose compairable to a young (early 20's) healthy male. Im gonna go after my next comp in about 7 wks and try and get a script Im sure they will give me one when they take a gander at my test levels LOL prolly single digits
