Blood Work Timing

[insertname]

KelKel,

Thanks for the reply.

I have blood work scheduled through my doctor next week. Its currently scheduled on the Friday the 18th.

Considering my current protocol, do you think this is a good day to get my blood drawn? If not, I was considering rescheduling that blood draw for Tuesday the 15th, to get my peak levels and then use privatemedlabs for a Saturday draw, for my trough.

Current Protocol:

Test-C, 100mg, once per week, Sunday morning
HCG, 500iu, once per week, Thursday morning
Currently no AI

I take all 500IU of the HCG on Thursday due to simplicity and to hopefully get a small boost in test. I'm very new to TRT but considering it is forever, I wanted to start with a protocol that is simple and minimal. If I have to adjust my current protocol to get better results, I certainly will but so far I havent felt much different...I suspect my dose is too low. I'm anxious to see the blood work results.

Your dose is not too low - unless your blood work indicates the contrary. If you want optimal results - feel like you're always tuned - I'd suggest you follow Kel's advice. Split your dose in two - 50mg every 3.5 days. Split your dose of hCG in two as well - 250iu twice a week. Many men on the forum do it this way....for a reason. If you do SQ with an insulin needle, you'll feel nothing. Many on this forum do this too...for a very good reason.
