1400 test level at 125mg t cyp/week?

[DeusMalo]

So, I happened to be talking to someone today who asked if I've heard of HRT... blah blah - he ended up saying that he's taking 125mg t cyp a week, nothing else and said he has 1400 test rating in his latest blood tests... I grilled "are you sure" - he swore by it. Then offered he was 600-700 at 100mg and just recently went to 125mg a few weeks ago and just got blood tested to see where he is.

I don't know all the variables, but it seems to me this reading is askew. Is it even possible to hit 1400 at 125mg? Are there things that can throw the reading off? How do you go from 600 to 1400 w/only an additional 25mg?

I think it's great if possible, but I know I didn't get close to 1400 at 400mg.

I think the first question is when did he have his labs done in relation to his last injection in each case?

Definitely possible. But remember, a number is just a number.

It is possible and as you mentioned there are a lot of variables in the equation.

As I've posted a few times, I use 200 mgs a week of test cyp with and Aromatase inhibitor (AI) and fina @ 1.25 mgs daily and I never have a total test level of less than 1000 ng/dl.

I have had blood drawn multiple times in the course of a week to check my ebbs and it looks like this...

Monday prior to injection - (lowest point between injections) 1000+ ng/dl

Wednesday (Highest point of the week) - 1600+ ng/dl

Friday - 1200 ng/dl.

Now, 200 mgs might not produce the same effect in others. For me using an Aromatase inhibitor (AI) daily and fina daily make a big difference. Very little of my Test is being converted to E2 or DHT.

Tide - blood was taken 6-days after his last injection to test the levels. He said he only takes t cyp - no Aromatase inhibitor (AI), no HCG. Said his estrogen was in the 20s.

cashout - I do recall one of your postings now. Very helpful.

Wish I had the type of results he does... Or even cashout has!

ive been tested at 2200 with only 250mg of delatestryl a week. nothing like good old us of a hg gear

I'd agree here, the ebb and flow of it all depends on timing, and did he mention anything else he was taking that might affect it?

The amount taken effects everyone diff, some guys take 300 a week and end up at 500-600 and others 100-125mg and like this dude and end up sky high. That's why you want a good specialist like Chip here helping you setup a dose/protocol that will be good for you long term as Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) and also make you "feel" right.
