    Questions about Testosterone Replacement Therapy

    This is me.Im 57.Finished my first cycle.On PCT.Ran test for 10 wks.last pin Wed.Started Aromasin 4wks ago.Hcg now too.In a week, clomid.

    This post is about my friend.

    This is about my friend who doesnt have a computor right now.He asked me to post for him because of how much I have learned from this Forum and the amount of knowledge and information here that people are willing to share.

    So this is my friends history.He has done Anabolic steriods off and on for 10 yrs.He is 41.Never did a PCT.Was feeling a little low.Wasnt on anything.Got some bloodwork done.Test was low but still within the range.Has been on TRT for 6 mos.Started of with gel patches and Dr put him on cyp 200 a month.One pin.Then brought him down to 150 a mo.He also has a hernia in his lower ab that is causing him some pain.His Dr is a Urologist(probably spelled that wrong)and has told him to go for second opinion.(on which I am not sure because there is the (1) low test and the (2) hernia but she is treating both).Second Dr just ordered more bloodwork.
    He still isnt feeling great and is accually thinking about pain management till they do something with the hernia.So for him thats serious.He doesnt like taking pain meds.
    So,on the TRT he is losing the kids and is wondering about using Aromasin or HCG.Its freaking him out a little bit.
    So ,what do you guys think?

    Where to start? I gotta say that doc fucked him by once a month injects. He'll get much better results from once a week, twice a week, or e3d injects. Most guys will land between 100-150 mgs a week for true TRT and up to 400 week on a cruise.

    For lower doses of test I prefer Anastrozole in lieu of Aromasin, easier to dial in and keep from going to low on E2. Lots of good info in the research chem section.

    HCG - yeah, I like it. Keeps the balls full. Again lots of info on this in research chem section.

    I don't like the doctors being in control of my TRT program; here's an overview of my protocol. Like to keep test levels around 1200.

    60 mgs Test E e3d
    500 iu HCG e3d (day before Test)
    .25 mg Anastrozole eod

    Everyone is different, so gotta do blood work to dial in the program. Once you have a solid base and know how you react RBCs, E2, etc, then you can do some blasts and add in other compounds.

    *DISCLAIMER* this is just what works for me, this is not advice. consult your physician.

    100-150 ml per week is standard and as Tony said divide this to pin twice a week, so he will avoid mood changes and feeling like sh.. He has to use HCG because this will help keep his testicles alive. Arimidex or generic Anastrozole is also must have during TRT because it helps keep estrogen in control.

    my friend's protocol looks like this:
    monday and thursday 60 mgs of testosterone cypionate
    sunday and wednesday 250-300iu hcg
    .50mg of Anastrozole eod

    He has to also remember to do blood work just to check his estrogen level and his free and total testsosterone

    Standard of care for TRT is to start with 200mg every 2nd week. Every month is a waste.

    I was originally given 150mg per week then increased to 200mg per week. I use 100mg every 4th day and it seems to work fine.

    My co worker was on 200 every other week and was just changed to 200 every week because his levels were dropping in the second week and he was feeling shitty from about day 9 or 10 until about 4 days after his next inject. He's doing better now that he's on each week.

    His doc did tell him to stop injects 10 days before blood work.

    HCG at 250 units two or three times a week is medically acceptable to prevent testicular atrophy. I've been prescribed this for a couple of years and it worked fine while I was using it. When i stopped, the boys shrank to the point that I'm sure my 10 year old son probably has bigger nuts than me by now. But other than aesthetics, this really isn't an issue.

    Right on.Thanks for all the feedback.We were thinking that maybe the Dr had him on 1 pin a month of the cyp so that when the ester was finished in 14 days his own body would have to produce and eventually it would bring his own up.Thats what we were thinking(guessing) but we really dont know shit.
    My own Dr told me if I wanted to for myself to run cyp 200 every 2 wks TRT.
    Im going to get him over to read your posts. Thanks alot

    There is anecdotal evidence if you pin twice a week that your E2 will not elevate.
