    If you were doing 15mg/day of prop, switching to 175mg of prop once per week is really going to make things worse and possibly give you an even bigger conversion rate.


    When you were injecting 62.5mg 2x/week what ester of test were you using? What was your free T on that protocol? Also, you mentioned low/no sex drive. Did you check DHT levels?

    This isn't a Dr. prescribed protocol is it? I've seen cyp/prop blends done by a compounding pharmacy, but never seen prop used solo and it looks like you are from the US.

    I was gonna do 25 mg Ed and lower adex to .5 eod to bring estrogen up just to mid 20s!

    One thing I do notice is when I take Dhea supplements I get super aggressive and energized!

    And I was using test e twice a week! Felt like i still had low t!

    You need to work off of labwork, not exclusively how you feel.

    Do you have any free T values, SHBG values, DHT values, and sensitive E2 values for your time while on enanthate? You posted an ultrasensitive earlier.


    You would be better off to stick with a longer ester such as cyp or enanthate, get dialed in on your dosage, adjust dosage if necessary based on relevant labwork, stick with one type of E2 assay, and work things in line.

    It's not like driving a car and if you suddenly want to hang a left so you just turn the steering wheel to the left for immediate results.

    It takes time to get everything dialed in. Pull in-depth labs like posted in the Finding a TRT physician:

    As far as sex drive, DHT is a significant contributor to sex drive. There are plenty of studies online.

    Also, now you say your prop dosage will be 25 mg/day, earlier you said 175mg once/ week. You really need to get things in line( preferably with the aid of a competent physician), and don't take a shotgun approach.

    Adding too many variables at once makes things very difficult.

    DHEA can cause aggression in people. If it gives you problems, drop it. It's that simple.
