I think your number is low, I use 160 cyp 1x a week and my tt is 800 on day 6.

That is crazy low. I would get your new bloods and see what happens. You either metabolize testosterone very fast or that shit is crazy underdosed.I was surprised to see my numbers from recent bloodwork. I've been injecting approx. 150mg/wk of Test E (UGL) for the past couple months. I inject Sunday morning, and had blood pulled Friday morning...wanting to get an idea of what my trough levels were. At 150mg/wk, I was expecting mid to high-normal numbers....nope.
Testosterone - 221 (last May I pulled a 477 after being off for 3 months!)
LH/FSH - 0.1/0.2 (last May I pulled 4.9/1.6)
Estradiol - 13.5 (last May I pulled 25.9)
I don't feel off, but these numbers are disappointing...no?
Hemoglobin - 18.9 high
Hematocrit - 53.6 high
My Hemo/Hema are typically in normal range, so that tells me maybe I'm dealing with some underdosed Test...is my logic sound?
for those interested, here's my plan...
I'm donating double red blood cells next week, and having bloods pulled the following week, approximately 48 hours after my 150mg injection on Sunday.
Should be interesting to see two things...#1 - test levels 48hrs vs. 5 days and #2 - any significant reduction in my Hematocrit levels.
You can go get them to take your blood and just dump it. I forget what it's called but you can have it done***FIRST FUCKING UPDATE***
Okay...first world problems here, but fuck my life. I hit the blood bank up last night to donate double reds, and come to find out my fucking iron was too high (19.1). They turned me away...
The phlebotomist got up from the pc, closed the door, then sat down to break the news...like i was fucking dying or something! The first thing he says (after advising me that my iron was too high to donate) was, "are you taking testosterone?"
Guys, i'm 6' 187lbs...i'm in good shape for a 40yr old, but i'll be damned if you were to see me in khakis and a fleece and infer that i'm taking testosterone!
Anyhow, i'm still getting bloods done 48hrs after my Sunday injection of 150mg (Test E), but i'm considering either dropping the test (cold turkey, like always) or possibly having my wife help me bleed myself.
That's all for today...be back with blood results later next week.

If you don't want your doc to know just get a script for it from an urgent care walkin. Your insurance will cover it. That's how I get my bloods done. I live in jersey so I need a script for bloodsYeah, he mentioned that, but said I would need my Dr to script that or something...I'm weighing my options and will report back after my labs taken this coming week.

Both, just go to a walkin clinic to get the prescription. Then you can go to blood bank and get a blood dump. I was just saying that's how I get a script for my bloodworkAre you talking about blood work or actually having the blood bank taking your blood to just dump for therapeutical purposes??

That's why you see the walkin clinic doctor for the prescription for blood letting. That way your doctor doesn't know anythingRight on, I get my own blood work script through private meds, but I'll need my Dr to script a blood letting for me. The problem is he doesn't know I'm self trt...I'll get this figured out, not too worried about it. Worst case scenario, I have nurse friends that may be able to help me out...
I've found that pinning every 5 days is the best way to keep my levels consistent without pinning too frequently. Once a week you will have a pretty good drop by the end of week. Some people do well even with the trough so you have to find what works best for you***Pre-Update***
Pulled bloods approximately 48hrs after 150mg injection of Test E, and was pleased to see >1500.
I have a theory on what happened with my 5 day bloods, I'll be back tomorrow and share the other info from the 48hr bloods.
How long have you been on Trt? It takes like 4 weeks to reach peak plasma concentrations. You metabolize testosterone crazy fast. Almost likes like you are doing prop not enanthate***48hr Post 150mg Injection Bloods***
Testosterone, Serum >1500
Estradiol 78.3
Hemoglobin 18.2
Hematocrit 51.6
***5 day Post 150mg Injection Bloods***
Testosterone, Serum 221
Estradiol 13.5
Hemoglobin 18.9
Hematocrit 53.6
Here's my theory on why my 5 day bloods were so much lower than my 48hr bloods...completely bro-science, so chime in if you have any other theories.
I think my injection prior to the 5 day bloods was a shallow injection. If I remember correctly, I had a weak jab and only got the needle maybe halfway in during injection...i was only pushing 0.5ml, so I didn't think much of it.
Could that have any influence on how much Testosterone was metabolized??
Also, I'm loving how my RBC's have lowered a good bit since my 5 day bloods...no idea how that would happen.

No, if it went into the muscle you are fine. Even if you really fucked up and somehow did subq people use that for Trt all the time. If anything a subq injection will take longer to disperse not faster. @Roger rabbit uses short ass needles for all his injections with no problems. I can't remember how short but I was very surprisedI've been on trt for the past few months...and I highly doubt this is prop. I'll pull more 5 day bloods sometime in the next couple months, and I think we will see improved numbers. You don't think a bad inject is possible?
I probably not prop but those bloods are very interesting. If you really metabolize enanthate that fast you may want to switch to a longer ester. Testosterone deconoate or undeconoate have a 15 day halflife. They may be a better option. If you inject them once weekly you won't get as much of a fluctuation. You don't really want tt levels above 1100 it is unhealthy. Or try 2x per week injectionsOkay, so if this is prop, then it would most likely be dosed at 100mg/ml. That would mean I've been dosing 50mg/wk...would that give me a >1500 48hrs post injection?
What brand of test e was it?Okay, so if this is prop, then it would most likely be dosed at 100mg/ml. That would mean I've been dosing 50mg/wk...would that give me a >1500 48hrs post injection?
