TRT discussion

[MG0h3]

Any side effects you’ve had? Bad tempter etc

When you first start, your skin will produce more oil called sebum. Similar to when your T is accelerating through puberty.

Noticed it mainly on shoulder and back.

It will normalize and dissipate for the most part after a year.

I started using a body wash with salicylic acid (anti acne) just in my back. I wear body armor semi regularly though so that def doesn’t help.

@ArabianOak just from my personal experience, you won’t want to hop off once you are on a properly dialed in TRT protocol. Initially it may be a little bumpy as your body adjust to the sudden influx of testosterone, this will pass. FWIW I never experienced this, but some guys do have trouble initially. Based on the responses here, most of us seem fairly happy with the outcome.

However if you did want to stop, your natural production should restart after a couple of months, it take some time for the exogenous test to clear your system. To aid in that you could kickstart it back up with HCG and clomid 3x a week for two months. That should get you going again.

So my initial levels before I started was 320. I was put on 160cc/week They did blood work a month after and my levels were 1100. At this point they dropped me down to 120cc/week. I’m due for bloodwork with them this week, 5 months after I started. I had bloodwork done with my primary 2 weeks ago for my annual physical. I got the results today and my levels are 1754. Should I be concerned? Does this place not know what they’re doing?

I usually will pin Thursday about lunchtime and do my bloodwork Monday so there has been time to let the levels drop. If you get your bloodwork then next day after you inject your numbers will be high and they will want to lower your dose so they don’t get in trouble by insurance and whatnot. At least this has been my experience.

Are you testing right after pinning? You should be testing on the day of your next injection, but before you inject that day. If you are testing a couple days after pinning you will be peaked AF.

I tested 4 days after injection

Also don’t worry about time as it also took a few months for my doctor to get me dialed in to the numbers that we both were happy with. He started me low and would go up .5ml at a time after bloodwork.
I don’t say you should, but you can also cheat and not give yourself the whole dose your supposed to take starting 3-4 weeks before bloodwork so they will up your dose lol.

That’s about the same time I do for bloodwork. But my doctor started me at .2ml 1x a week and after a few months I’m at .8ml 2x a week. Not all doctors are knowledgeable when it comes to trt and some are idiots. You might have an idiot doctor. ‍

Also I hope you mean mg and not cc. 1 ml vial is 200mg and I believe 1ml is 1cc.

Are you pinning the whole dose 1x a week? If you are doing 1x a week I would consider splitting that dose, 120mg a week is .6 ml on the syringe if dosed at 200mg per ml, so maybe try .3 monday and .3 again on friday
