test e halflife?

exidous

New member
well it was all going so good for me. i was up 22 pounds and starting my 7th week. got sick. bad. didnt eat anything for 2 days. lost 8 pounds. i think most of that was water because i had the stomach flu and while i was sick i knew most of it was water because i was getting ripped. well all is good now lasted 3 days and im back on my diet. to make a long story short i missed a shot day because i was sick and i just shot today after 7 days. is this going to completely mess me up? will i jump back in weight? seems like just after 7 days my test levels were at a all time low, starting feeling depressed, crap like that. could test levels drop so bad after 7 days? should i continue the cycle out until 10 weeks? i was feeling like king of the world until life threw me a nasty virus. my luck.

500mgs/week test-e
 
i believe the half life is 14-16 days. i've done enan before and i waited 7 days between shoots so i think you'll be ok.
 
Everything I've read says Testosterone Enanthate's half life is 10.5 Days.Propioate on the other hand is 4.5 Days maybe your thinking of that hope that helps Peace. ;)

Guvna, you must have meant PROP. Test PROP's half live is 4.5 days.

Test ENANT's half life is 10.5 days.

you should forget everything you read on that link..sorry bro.


Test E is 4.5 days.

Test Cyp is 6.5 -7 days



Someone with a vivid imagination made up those figures, and it seems as though everyone relies on them.

It also depends on how big the guy is, what muscle it's injected into, etc. For the average guy its probably 5-6 days from what I've read.

A bigger guy probably has a shorter half-life.

Half-life of a substance, hormone or otherwise, has aboslutely NOTHING to do with any of those variables.

The 2,3,& 4 links are'nt working for me but the first link did however I could'nt find anything stating 4.5days for Test E. In fact that site verified that Test E & C half lives are quite long Quote"One study stated that 140 mg. of testosterone cypionate and testosterone enanthate produced similar blood levels after injection, and stated that heightened blood levels decreased to basal levels by day ten.1 With higher doses the duration appears to increase a little as another study stated that with an injection of 200 mg. of testosterone cypionate blood levels reached basal levels by days 13 to 14.2 ".To reach base line levels by day 13 to 14.2 is quite a bit longer than the 4.5 days you quoted above.Here is a quick link for half lives http://www.basskilleronline.com/active_halflife.html I dont think anyone on this board take less than 200mgs Hope this helps Bro

A larger body (lean mass) = faster metabolism and probably a shorter half life

The muscle choice wouldn't technically change half-life, but would probably affect oil dispersion in this case

Just my thoughts - what variables did you have in mind? Liver function would probably be another for just about any drug....
 
i wish there was some hard evidence on this, it seems like everybody has a different opinion about this, it would be nice to settle this once and for all, i was in the beleif that enanthate was 7-10 days.

That being said, you should be fine, lots of people do there shots only once a week, not saying its the greatest idea but to shoot once a week but you should be okay, definetely don't don't cut the cyclel short because of that, worse things happen to people and they keep trucking.

The amount of mgs taken has nothing to do with half-life (except maybe bolus size from the amount of oil injected but that is irrelevant for this discussion). It can impact how long exo test stays in the system, but it does not impact half-life.



Basal exo test is zero.

4.5 day halflife

13-14 days to basal (zero) levels.


200 mgs injected.

100mgs day 4.5

50mgs day 9

25 mgs day 13.5




(see working links)
 
BTW, these are SCHERING'S and PFIZER'S numbers.

all those "steroid half life" sheets and links are NOT correct.

Bro this looks great,and if the info is correct I'll be the first to eat crow and definitely apologize to all,but there seems to be diferent info in the sites here http://www.medsafe.govt.nz/profs/Datasheet/p/Primotestondepotinj.htm this one states the 4.5 day half life of Test E but this http://www.medsafe.govt.nz/profs/Datasheet/d/Depotestosteroneinj.htm site states that Test C has a half life of eight days.And not to throw a wrench into the engine but this site that you quoted in your other tread http://web.mit.edu/hudson/www/ttypes.html#enanthate states that both Test E,and Test C are slow-acting esters with a release time between 10-14 days so which one is right?
 
Im a pharm rep for pfizer... In his literature it says that the half life of test cyp injected IM is around 8 days. so test E I would say is around 6.5 or 7 days.. Just inject twice per week and all is well

I think thats something all of us can agree to twice a week seems jjjuuusssttt rrriiiggghhhttt :qt:

As in all studies, minor differences occur from case to case. Also, cyp is a bit longer than enth, as it has one more carbon-the half life is extended by a day or two. However, these are the numbers generated by studies done by the largest American distributer of test (pfizer, upjohn), and one of the world's largest pharm companies (Schering). These are the numbers I will trust. If someone else would like to believe the ancient steroid half life charts on internet boards, fine. But, I simply want to present the facts that I have found.



I would trust the numbers for mainly cyp, enth, and deconate, for these are the most (if not the only, besides sust) esters used in hormone therapy. The rest are basically guesses, with no solid medical backing. However, one can make educated guesses based on cabon lengths and half lives of known (enth, cyp, deconate) esters to figure out others such as prop, and undeconate.
(As an aside, phynlprop is a ring compound and does not adhere to this, it has many carbons but its half-life is somewhere inbetween enth and prop)



As, for that link, Dial Tone posted that. I quoted it saying "there is not a single medical referrence on the page" ...And there isn't. I can't find a single thing to back up those claims.
 
A quote from someone else on that thread...



read: http://www.jenapharm.de/de/fachkrei...teron_depot.pdf

a paper for docs about a testosteron enanthate 250mg/ml from the German co. Jenapharm; on page 3, a chart is shown where blood plasma levels are recorded (y-axis) for every hour after a single injection (x-axis).
it shows that:
- before injection, the subjects had testosterone concentrations of around 4.5 ng/ml = baseline
- maximum blood levels are reached 54.25 hours after injection at 14.31 nanograms/mililiter (page 2), this is 300% of baseline or 200% = 10ng/ml above baseline
- blood plasma levels increase very rapidly for the first 24h and stay highest for around the first 2.5 days (chart at page 3)
- half life is reached when blood levels reach around 9.5 ng/ml at 144h, 6d after injection
- baseline levels are reached after 12-13 days, this means that after 13 days the product is completely metabolized and out of the system

bioavailability and half life differ greatly between subjects (page 2): peaks have been recorded as being between 9 and 19 ng/ml; this means, that one person gets 200% baseline levels from one injection of TE 250mg while another person might get 400% = double the results.
there are also huge differences how fast the steroid is metabolized; one extreme reaches its peak at hour 16, the other extreme has to wait up to hour 92 (!) after injection to reach its (probably lower) peak.
the whole bioavailabilty (ng multiplied by hours) differs between 2000 and 3000, which means that some people get 50% more out the same injection, for the compared TE it was even 100%.

if we factor in that the number of androgen receptors also varies greatly among people one can imagine that the results of a steroid cylce do vary in huge numbers; there must be bodybuilders out there who gain close to nothing off a 250mg TE cycle while others pack on serious pounds with the exact same product.

btw., the bioavialability has an even greater variance for orals, in clinical trials plasma concentration vary up to 1000% (10 times) between subjects. If you only grow on 100mg of dbol ed while your buddy grows on only 10mg, nothing is wrong, its all within normal range.

6 days half life for TE is average, but 4 or 8 days can also be true for you, it depends on the individual.
 
I think that based on the information that you have supplied it would be safe to assume that Test E HL to be around 6 days,it looks like base levels to be reached in 10-13 days.If this is correct it would be nice to find out where the 10.5 day HL came from?I've always used this as a guide I'd hate to think that every board has been lied to all this time but I guess stranger things have happened before.By the way K to you for all the research Bro
