Not to be a dick but how would this help being this is your first cycle and first labs? No doubt, your numbers don't look good for 400mg a week but you have nothing to compare them to. As you’ve read, some just don’t respond well where others do. There is a source here who has been tested more than any. If you order from them your gear will be a few years old and I believe they have yet to have bad labs on their test or they surely wouldn’t still be around.
I’m currently using a bottle of ugl test from 2017. I take 100mg and it puts me in the 800s. I also take perrigo from Walgreens and it also puts my levels in the same range.
I have read about gear breaking down and degrading but I believe that’s around year 5ish or more and I don’t think it’s degrading. I think that’s when the rubber stopper starts to dissolve.
Now this is interesting. I also aromatize more than most. Not near the level you do but I can’t run a cycle without the tools to do so. I’m sure this may be why we respond well. Actually, Dr Scally used to rant and rave about how every one should test in the 10x range. Hell, back a few years ago if a ugl gear didn’t put us close to 10x we would call that source’s gear bunk. We’ve come along way since then but I do believe most should process around the 7x - 10x range even though some will speak out and say they don’t respond as well they are not the majority. There are to many factors. Like I mentioned Perrigo from Walgreens puts me in the 8x range but if I take the pharmaceutical Westward brand I barley hit the 6x range.
