Honest question on my reasoning...

[Kk570h]

I was recently diagnosed with low test for those that dont know,..my diet is good my bf% is about 18% .... I've been athletic my whole life , last past 2 years have been really serious lifting on high protein diet ... I'm not by far out of shape ....if my testosterone levels are LOW what's the whole point in waiting to get them right on a low dose patch if I plan on hitting a cycle anyway ... I'm already on medication for the rest of my life why not boost it do my cycle get off of it then maintain low dose patches or any other HRT afterwards ??.? If the patch does get my levels correct and THEN I go on a cycle it's just going to mess wit all up again anyway, no? Only 24 btw and NO past roid use!

no because when you go on the patch you will need to know if its working properly or not for you. and you wont be able to tell if your one cycle. Also you will probably need bloodwork again and it will be off because of the cycle

it isn't working , at least in my head it's not doing anything yet at such low doses he changed me to gel already I jus didn't pick it up yet ..It's going to take what? 5-6 months to get something that works and tests to make sure it's right .. And then boost it up again having to go back to the doctor ..I can simply tell him I'm waiting low on cash... Getting more blood work and getting it stable can be done afterwards its already fukked ..

It's wasting money getting it right to waste more money on the gear then more money getting it right again ... I think it's very logical what I'm saying

[gixxerboy1]

no cause if you get it right now. Then you go on cycle and go back to what you are taking before for trt

It's not wasting money. What Gixxer is saying is you get it right now so that your levels are stable, then you cycle and when you come off, you go back to your TRT dose and your levels will return to what they are on your TRT dose. If you do it afterwards, you're going to end up spending even more money trying to hone in on the right dose and treatment strategy because you had fvcked with your hormone levels already. But it's your life, do what you want.

All the test going in my body with the cycle might lower my natural level even more most likely will I doubt what I'm using now will be the same dosage I'll use after the cycle it's a possibility but either way I need to get tested now or after the cycle because these patches are shit .. Right dose and treatment strategy isn't found now yet its already ****ed up that makes no sense ... Because I ****ed up my hormone levels already im going to spend more money? They're already ****ed up lmao

No you are thinking about it the wrong way. You wont have to double your levels after a cycle because of messing up your natural test more. The patches, gel or TRT injections do not ADD to what your body is producing, it replaces it and brings you up to a normal level. When you cycle you typically take 2x + what your trt dose is and after your cycle you go back to your prescribed trt dose and your body will resume a normal level in a few weeks once the excess is out of your system.

As said, it's best to forget about doing a cycle until you have everything under control. Your levels are good and your doctor says no need for blood work for at least 6 months. You dont want to be caught mid cycle having to do a blood test and have HIGH test levels confusing everything. You have plenty of time to get things right. Be patient. I had to go through the same thing and although it seems like forever it's not. Also since you are low T now just getting to normal, higher range you will notice a difference with muscle gain and overall well being.
