Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below I debated that, but was worried about aromatization sides from the large dose. There are several articles which look at 200 mg q 2 week dosing, and the test levels in the first several days at peak concentration are in the 1200 range. My guess is that at a q week dose, with the half life of cyp, you would probably be peaking in that 1600 range at a weekly dose. My whole argument for the q 5 day dosing was to try and mainatain peak plasma levels between 1200-800 and avoid alot of the aromitization sides. It's obviously still a work in progress.

hey bro no need to worry that much about the 200mg dose , remember we BB do doses of a gram and above when cycling and we're fine , u can use an AI if that much concerned about aromatization but i'm sure that the 200mg/w won't produce that much estro and it's just for a couple of weeks , as for cyp peak time is around 36 hours if u want maximum stability u need to calculate ur weekly dose and divided by 2 doses like monday morning and thursday evening (a 3.5 day split) that's what most of us r doing here on EF. and BTW reaching 1600 ng/dl for a few days in the beginning is not an issue here i live with a 1200-1300 ng/dl all year long, remember it's about the symptoms not the numbers, conventional numbers (300ng/dl - 800 ng/dl) don't work anymore some ppl stay around 1500 ng/dl with practically no sides or minimal.
Cool. Thanks for the tip man. The hardest part is simply waiting out the couple of months most people say it took them to start noticing the effects.

HRT = Hormone Replacement Therapy
means replacing endogenous hormones with exogenous analogues (synthetic)
it could be test , hgh , T3 , estro , prog , HCG (LH) , HMG (FSH)
the causes could be primary or secondary hypogonadism, andropause, menopause , anti-aging....
So after 5 or so weeks had my test rechecked for a trough level (day before next injection). At day 5 by total test. was on 330 with a free level around 19, which is pretty low. This is with 100 mg T.Cyp q 5 days plus 250 IU HCG sublingual on days 5 and day 1 regarding injection. I am going to increase to 200 mg q 5-7 days with my next injection, with the previous one being 140 mg. So I am hoping that somewhere between 140-200mg every 5 days hits the sweet spot. My estrone level was still decent in the 40s with the last check as well. Slow going, hopefully this dose increase will help me feel a bit better.
