Deca for recovering from surgery

[07bobber]

I am having a calcium deposit scoped from my shoulder, Is taking deca a good idea while doing physical therapy? Should I start before I have the surgery?

It likely will, yes on both counts. You running anything else? Have you before?

 

[07bobber]

just t creamm yes but in the past

Cool. Stay on the cream, do the deca too if you like, before and after your surgery. You'll heal faster.

 

[07bobber]

Sounds good, is 8 weeks too long?

 

[Built]

Nope.

What dose is your cream, and how much deca will you run?

 

[07bobber]

The cream was just increased to 150mg ed, I was thinking between 200-300mg deca a week

 

[XYZ]

WOW! 1050mg of test a week? Is that a typo?

Bobber, how many grams of cream do you apply daily, and at what concentration?

 

[07bobber]

150mg per ml, i put on 1ml ed, its compounded bioidentical, I was doing 100mg a day and I went fromt 326 to 657 t levels

There we go, thanks. Your cream is 15% testosterone, so one gram of cream delivers 150mg to the skin. Published pharmacokinetic data for Androgel suggest 10% of the active is absorbed. This would be roughly consistent with your dosing, which delivers through the skin at most 15mg daily or 105mg per week. (Permeation is not linear, and decreases with the concentration of active in the delivery vehicle)

For reference, hubby injects test cyp at 75mg twice a week, for a total of 150mg test cyp, which provides 102mg testosterone, minus the ester. Hubby's levels on this are around 1100 - 1200ng/dL, just above the high end of normal.

You may find you have libido issues with the deca that much higher than your test.

I get it from my primary doctor and he didn't want to up me to 200mg daily, my friend tried androgel and it didn't work, maybe I will go with 200 mg deca for 8 weeks
