Will 100 mg e5d on HRT bring me into the high end of normal?

31 yo; 225 lb; ~10% bf; 5'10"

I've had a few answers on this on other threads but wanted to see if anybody else had input.

Tested at 175 on a scale of 300 - 900. Was prescribed 200 mg TE/wk by doc (who is new to HRT); I think 200 will bring me in too high(?) Want to come in on the high end of normal on next blood test (this Wed; shot 100 mg today), but don't want to be too far over because I don't want her to adjust the script down. 100 mg e5d high enough to do this?

Also, she is very amennable to prescribing if I have a good argument; was thinking about asking her for growth, but don't really know how to approach the subject in conjunction with HRT... I know that growth is often a part of HRT, but don't really know how to broach the subject with her...

Karma for help.

When I was on 200mg/week of cyp I tested high 900's. My test level prior to the HRT was I think like 320.

 

[THeMaCHinE]

So I should maybe pop in another 50-75 mg tonight or tomorrow? Test is on Wed.

What were your stats when you tested and was the scale the same 300-900 scale?

 

[JG1]

scale was 300-1000ng

I was around 185lbs or so then...this was a few years back. The Dr lowered my test dose to 150mg/week then because he said upper 900's was too high, 150mg/week put me in the 700's

Cool, thanks.

I found 200 mgs to be way too high. I'd register between 1200 and 1500ngs, so all the heart benefits were lost. With 100 mgs every 5-7 days I'm around 800-900 which is perfect and my libido is better. But hey, if the doc is prescribing 200 a week, keep the extra on hand.

As far as asking for HGH, that might be pushing it. Remember, legit HGH is still expensive. Are you sure you want to spend that kind of money for the rest of your life? Constant HGH use may be something you'll wind up regreting 10 years from now.

Nelson,

Yeah, you might be right about the GH. My levels are good right now, so maybe I shouldn't push it. It's stupid, but I happened to see Scott Steiner last night and that got my mind on growth hormone...

Ancilliaries I don't need a prescription for (easily obtained) and proviron isn't prescribed in the US, so I was just looking for something else since the doc is probably willing...

I'm planning on saving the extra test, but didn't want to come in suspiciously low and have her question whether I'm taking the whole 200... If I did a 100 mg enan shot this AM and the blood test is at 11:00 a.m. on Wed, do you think I'll come in good?

 

[Nelson Montana]

Suspeciously low? Doubtful. They're just concerned with getting it in the healthy range. I think having it too high would be more of a concern. Then she'd knock the dose back down.

As far as ancilliaries, I'd just go with Chrysin and calcium d glucerate and maybe keep some proviron on hand for an extra kick. A-dex would be too suppressive (to a healthy e level) with that low of a dose.

No need for me to tell what I think about Clomid, right?

 

[THeMaCHinE]

Well, the thing about this doc is that she's a bb -- she also knows about my AS use -- so she is sympathetic and actually does want me to be in the upper range... basically as much as she can legally/ethically prescribe.

I often wonder about Gh hrt. The Dr. I see for hrt has alot of wealthy patients.Their typical dosage is 5 days on 2 days off
at 1iu a day and also 50-100 mg of test. when asked if I would like to try the gh I studied into it. It seems 1iu is about the same as my body makes. So it seems like your just trading. I think his clients keep coming back because that 50-100mg of test makes
them feel like their getting their moneys worth

 

[THeMaCHinE]

I imagine it's up to the particular doc; but yeah, 1 iu seems a waste (unless you're not making it on your own)...

Exactly!

And remember, bodybuilders tend to put out more GH than normal folks. (Part of the reason we stay younger, longer). Intense exercise secretes GH and that's better than getting it exogeneously. It seems a shame to give that up to become dependant on an outside source.
