Male produces 4-7 miligrams of testosterone daily?

[thompson1975]

Is it true that male produces 4-7 miligrams of testosterone daily? So it's only around 28-49 miligrams of testosterone a week. But most of bodybuilders inject themselves with 400-600 miligrams of testosterone, by using testosterone enanthate,proprionate or cypionate.

Isn't it like 20 times of normal testosterone production? And isn't it too much for your body to handle?

Thankyou.

I thought healthy males produce around 10mg/d.

Thankyou GangstaDogg

In my opinion, I think 10mg/d is no where near natural production. Since it is 70mgs/week. But why some people say that you shouldn't inject yourself with anything lower than 200 mgs of testosterone a week, wouldn't lower dose of testosterone injection make minimal side effects on human body? 200 mgs/week is like 3 to 5 times of natural testosterone production.

good questions. and I think the best way to answer it is this. UA iron was obviously being facetious with what he said... a lot of extra hormones injected over a long period of time is NOT good for you. you would end up with tremendous lipid strain.. the first signs would be side effects like insomnia, high bp, high heart rate, etc. your blood would thicken... just do a lipid panel next time you are deep in a cycle and you will understand what kind of trauma your body goes through.

if you want to go the HRT route you probably want to be injecting around 100-150mg a week of T give or take a bit. to get you in line to the average levels. and then guys on HRT will blast with cycles. thats the way its done.

hope that helps.

^^^ True responsible HRT is about 100-125mg per week of test.
