With respect to dosage:Thanks for sharing this. I've been doing similar at 100-125mg/wk. And even thinking about dropping a little lower.
Did that study on trans men make you curious about how little weekly TRT dosage men need? Or was it @Type-IIx's suggestions about dosages with least risks?
It's all leading me to wonder about this - bodybuilding with the minimal needed TRT for same results.
I appreciate you going in this direction when it seems the trend is for TRT of 200-400mg/wk as therapeutically-justified since bodybuilders all happen to be extreme "outliers".
With respect to dosage:
annual physical, doc asked for blood tests
75 mg once a week (Juicepal testosterone cypionate)
Because I had blood tests scheduled for the day after injection, I skipped my injection on day seven (once a week). Bloods drawn on day 8.
431 ng/dL, range 250-1100 ng/dL Total
104.0 pg/ml, 35-155 pg/ml Free
I am pretty careful about measurement, but not too precise, since I have been using a 3cc syringe, but draw 3 ticks (250mg/ml x 0.3 = 75), so it can only be so far off.
I was a little surprised that it was still so high 8 days out.
On a positive note, my bloodwork looks good. The only exception is RBC and hematocrit. 17.1 is the cutoff, and I am at 17.2
LOL
Missed it by this much.
I donated double reds about a week before this, too.
38.5-50 is hematocrit range (that's just a percentage), and 51.4 here, again just out of range high
