1,027 ng/mL T Levels On Testosterone Gel + HCG!

[babyface58]

My doctor just changed up my prescription and put me on "Testosterone Slogel" and HCG.

The testosterone comes in a topical liquid formula. 50MG/ML. I apply 1ML per day to my skin each morning. I split it between my abdomen and shoulders.

I take the HCG 3x per week. 0.25ML injections...

The HCG is a 6,000iu vial and also contains 3mg of Vitamin B12. And I mix it with 3ml of diluent.

So with that said I don't know how you quantify the exact dose of HCG after mixing with the diluent.

But either way, here are my results:
(I have my results, and the reference ranges below)

Total Testosterone: 1,027
250 - 1100 ng/dL

Estrogen: 78
< OR = 39 pg/mL

SHBG: 41
10 - 50 mnol/L

Prolactin: 11.8
2 - 18 ng/mL

LH: <0.2
1.5 - 9.3 mIU/mL

FSH: <0.7
1.6 - 8.0 mIU/mL

My doc and I already talked about putting me on anastrozole if my Estrogen comes back too high, so that won't be a problem to get that fixed.

So anyone who hates sticking themselves in the ass with needles, or has side effects from the Testosterone spikes of injectable T (like I did) you might want to consider testing out the topical Testosterone gel + HCG for yourself.

To work it out you have 3ml split into 0.25ml injects = 12

6000iu/12 = 500iu per inject.

Your taking 1500iu (3x500iu) per week.

Out of curiosity, what happened on injects? How are you feeling at those levels, and with the higher E?

Don't expect you E2 to come down with HCG. Good luck..

Your test looks great , I don"t recall anyone getting it that high off gel before (I"d still go for injections) but its working for you ..... I would try to get the estrogen and SHBG down into the low/mid 20"s . ~Bo

Yeah absolutely, my doc put me on anastrozol tablets that dissolve under your tounge so my e2 will be down in no time.

Getting another blood test in 3 weeks.

awesome thanks for explaining!

On the injections I was getting terrible acne that I couldn't control. Other than that I felt great on the injections.

Were u pinning 1x/wk when u were getting acne. I ask cz it seems to me that the cause of the acne might have been fluctuating levels of the test. I know when I cycle I get less sides when i use prop e/d vs test e 2x/wk. But man, I would've never thought u could get the kjnda levels ur getting with a cream. Good for u. At the end its all about what works for u. Right?

That is a great T level for gel. I've been using Androgel and it won't get me near that high. Want to swtich to injections tho. Great results man!
Like others said your E is high which I've read ca happen while using gel instead of injections. I'm getting mine checked as I think is prob high.
