Prescrip Test

because aggression is one of the traits of testosterone just like increased muscle mass, bad breath, body odor, etc.

I guess if you think about it from an evolutionary stand point the male specie needs to be more aggressive to survive, hunt, etc.

Being bald does not necessitate high testosterone levels, it has to do with DHT.

However, the extent of male pattern baldness is not a direct indicator of testosterone levels. The extent of hair loss from pattern baldness is due to a complex interaction of several factors.

Haven't looked at the link yet, will check it out now. DHT supposedly though is a byproduct of test aromitization, is it not? This is why high test users with MPB in the family seem to lose thier hair prematurely, or supposedly anyway.

DHT seems to be considered pretty evil in other ways, so I wonder if its these waste/byproducts/whatever that are really responsible, anywho off to your link

Hey Prince...For replacement therapy, what do you consider a normal dose. My endo gave me a bottle of 200Mg CYP, and has me on one CC bi-weekly. Im thinking that once weekly would be better. My doc will up the dose for me as long as its within the "normal" thearapeutic range.

Thanks

The half life for cyp is 12.5 days I believe.

Joe, after running into a few HRT guys 200cc Upjohn cyp E2W is normal, I found one guy on 200mg a week though and everyone was supprised.

Is this something you will be cycling, or is this a permanent thing? I really can't see wanting to see the doctor even every 2 weeks, but unless your honestly past your prime I wouldn't want to be on permanent HRT either.

So I was just wondering if they were going to let you do this at home or what... you also have more flexibility that way. The guys I've ran into keep the script and run thier own, even if they buy from the local pharmacy, and generally will cycle it off/on 8-12 weeks or so, and just use double thier dose this way as well.

oh...I dont see the Dr every 2 weeks, I do it myself at home. I see the doc once every 4 months or so. I will be cycling, but I will keep my prescrips going so I can have some extra around the house "just in case".

I will be following a smiliar cycle as the guys you ran into, I will go 10 weeks on, probably 6-8 off

I finally got into see the endocrinologist and when I showed him my test results he said yeah that's very low. Now he's going to run a bunch of tests and hopefully we can find out what's really causing the low test.
