What's your HRT Dose?

[sunnycali]

Hi,
Sure this has been asked before, and no I didn't do a search, but I figured with how much Test has became so much more advertised, it seems that docs are now starting to prescribe more or atlest become more educated (at least some...)

Anyway, I have been on HRT Test Cyp 200mg/ml, and dose 1 once a week at 100mg, for a total of 400mg. The doc first had me on 200mg every other week, but from being around test for a while, I know it's better dosed at a minimum once per week for HRT.

My levels were very low when tested (98ng/dl.. The minimum for this lab was 300 and that was for someone that was much older than I.

So just curious what dose you all are on, and if you split injections, like twice a week (maybe 50MG 2x week)?? Or is the 100MG every week of Cyp a good way to go? I have gained weight and my energy is much improved, just wondering if I should split the dose each week?

Thanks in advace!

I have been on hrt for about 5month, the first 4, I was on 100mg a week.

I was feeling too up and down so my doc increased my dose to 125mg a week.
a
I feel a lot better at this dose but I feel there is still some fine tuning left to make.

200 mg every other week, my endo just put me on this and i have blood test in three months. I have a question for you guys, how long do i have to be on test cyp to kick in, what i mean by that is: If i take a shot today and go get tested in 14 days is that shot that i took 14 days ago going to affect my LH, FSH, and total testosterone?

Hey Tony, I think it's kind of odd your endo has you on a 200mg shot once every 2 weeks.

Considering that the half life of the test, are you feeling big ups in downs in your mood or energy?

seems like a 100mg shot a week would produce a more stable levels of testosterone in your body.

I just started it so i can not tell anything yet. If I experience anything like that I will definitely do 100mg per week. My previous doc put me at 1 cc every month lol. That was just nuts!

Im on 200 mg a week of cypionate and just took my 7th shot and dont feel a big difference....I do feel a little better overall. My test level was only 170 at the startb and I will do bloods in 1 more week, I have a feeling test levels are still low....

 

[TraceMYD]

Leebigdaddy. It took about 4 months before I actually "felt" the effects....I think with these low dosages, we just have to be patient and give time for your body to adjust.....remember we are in it for the long haul....not just for 4-6 week cycles.

keep up updated if you would! Are you on test only or did ur doc put u on arimidex and hcg also?

 

[sunnycali]

Thanks for the replies!

So those of you that have been on it for a while, or have previous AAS experience, do you think that it would be better dosed twice a week (regardless the dose). So 50mg Monday, and 50mg Thursday, or something similar?

Years ago, I was on AAS at a much larger dose, but it's been years, and things have changed. I was also on test 400, Fina, enathate. I'm not looking for "Serious Gains", just good energy, and when I do work out, I want to recover faster, etc.

I believe Cyp is about a 5-7 day half life, so I was thinking spliting the dose per week. Any experienced users either way, would be much appreciated!

Thanks!

I'm on test cyp 50mg twice per week plus HCG 250-500IU twice /week and arimidex .25 twice/ week. Seems about pretty good for me. I do blast but don't want my cruising test levels too high as don't want to walk around daily with the increased blood pressure that a higer dosage would bring.

 

[leebigdaddy]

I personally don't think splitting up the Cypionate 2 times a week will make a difference would work better for enthanate , I am on .25 mg armidex mon wend fri and 125 iu HCG on mon and tues, I do my 200 mg cyp on Thur

you guys have to remember you had to go on TRT cause there was something wrong with you to begin with. the TRT doesn't fix that root problem, it merely covers it up.

so if your problem was libido for example.. going on TRT may or may not help that. cause it isn't a cure for it.

cyp is best injected 2X per week... once a week is okay.. but your levels will fluctuate less at 2X per week. half life is about 2 weeks meaning after 2 weeks half of what you injected 2 weeks ago will be left in the body. and if you injected again a week later then a % of that will be left.

there are sites that will guestimate how much is in your system but you should feel a good bump within weeks with legit cyp. and your levels will stay peaking after weeks 4 or 5.

Agree!...Cyp peaks after 1 to 2 days and is best inj 2x/week. I've tried the 200mg/every 2 weeks and felt the fall-off after the first week. I don't like it. Some Docs are dedicated to old-school methods in fear of sides. Steer away from them and find a Doc who's more concerned with your wellness and the benefits.

 

[lincolnsvo]

BTW...I'm jealous of these guys that find Docs who agree to HCG, etc.. I've asked for it and been denied.
All I seem to find are the paranoid Doctors who don't want to risk anything to help their patient beyond the minimum. :\

F*ckin Hell!
This is why the self-help program begins. (I don't think HCG is a controlled substance)

I get my injection at my docs office - 450mgs every 14 days - covered by my insurance - just a $15 co-pay

 

[KappaRaider]

CYP 100mg per week, HCG (250iu twice a week) and Arimadex .25 twice a week.

Just got bloodwork done at end of 8 th week went from 170 to 1455

 

[lifter 808]

I'm on Agel 1%@ 8 pumps/day, but its not working as good as inj. Had inj, but new endo put me on this; I want inj back; bw is still in very low normal range; hoping to get back on other program tho...any advice? I normally have super low bp & strong heart at 52bpm resting.

 

[Raylor]

That's a big jump from 170 to 1455!!! Do you feel better? Libido, mood, etc??

should feel like superman

I have 6 years experience with hrt and 67 years of getting older.

HRT: 10 mgs a day topical. 1 iu of hgh eod. 0.25 mg of a-dex.

Cycles: For me ... 125 mg twice a week. (like a stack of test p and deca) 1 iu of hgh eod. 0.50 a-dex.

Diet, exercise, and recovery just as important.

Does anyone have any experience using injectable pellets? I just had 12 testopel pellets placed on Monday--a literal pain in the @ss!

I'm curious to how results and T levels are on these. I was on 100mgs of test c a week--did that for a month, but don't feel much different. Doc wanted to give these a go.

Any insight/ feedback would be appreciated!

 

[layddually]

100mg cyp on mon, thurs. so 200mg ew. I'm 33 and found out I never had enough test even as a teen. Sucks because even though I told dr when I was younger that I felt like ass they wouldn't check test because no one thinks a young kid would be low.

3 years on hrt , 250mg test e /w split into 2 doses of 125mg each (shot IM) , hcg 500 iu/w also split into two 250 iu's (shot sub-q) same days as test. AI's been changing from adex to aromasin and letro, but nowadays i'm having 25mg aromasin per week and also split into two halves of 12.5mg each time same day too as test.
