What to do when entering TRT?

[Too-$mall]

I'm ending my cycle in a few weeks. it's just test at 500mg / week. getting the following bloods done

- Total and free testosterone (LC/MS assay. No upper limit restriction)
- Sex hormone binding globulin
- Estradiol (sensitive- LC/MS assay)
- CBC (includes glucose, hematocrit and immune cells)
- CMP (includes liver and kidney function)
- Lipids (LDL and HDL cholesterol and triglycerides)

i will go to a low dose of test after the cycle. gotta check out the TRT stickies on here and start learning all i can. i'll post the results of my bloods and follow up with more posts if i have questions. thanks

What's the reason for self medicating trt? Why not cycle? Just curious

Why? I'm not judging, but I am curious. I've been on trt for years, but I'd give anything to not have to be.

You may want to wait a bit post cycle to allow your body to adjust to the upcoming TRT levels before you pull BW. Unless you're just curios how things look now.

thanks for the thoughts,

just curious right now about how my blood work looks while i'm on cycle. i'll do a check while going low dose. i want to see how high my test is. the test i'm on doesn't seem as potent. i think it's because i let it stay in powder form for a year before brewing the entire load. i kept the powder air sealed in a fridge with desiccants and in tin foil.

i don't like the crash, GREXMOORE. done with that stuff. i have to be alert at all times. my energy is very important to me. so are my hard ons.

I was just checking that you aren't intending on getting bloodwork done while your test was crashed to be put on trt because that would be foolish. I know a few that went that route and its not a good idea.

im not sure what you just said.

getting blood work done, so i could get TRT script from a doc? no, not going to do that. that's what you meant right? i would like to get a script one day. not sure how to do that.
