Any Guys here use Test Prop. for TRT??????

That's what the docs said, they'd like to see me in the low 20's, and why they cut my Aromatase inhibitor (AI) from .05 ed to .05 3X per week. Test and adjust, right? I love the results.

Bloods are going to be my new hobby.

No hijack of your thread intended, APOLLON.

.05mg? Are you sure? Do you pulverize your pills to be able to get such a small dose?

Yes, a product of the compounding pharmacy that supplies my clinic.

To stay on topic, testosterone propionate does work for testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) however there is no benefit to using it as injection rate will be more frequent and cost.

Testosterone in the end is testosterone, the ester attached is cleaved off and the base hormone of testosterone is going to be the exact same regardless of the ester that is attached to it. The ester serves as a time-release function, that is all.

My docs switched me from Cyp to Prop when I experienced sustained bloat during Cyp treatment. My Estradiol level never tested higher than 29, so they concluded this was a reaction to the Cypionate ester.

I'm the client, not the professional that you are... All I know is that after a week and a half, all bloat disappeared, no more problems. In your experience, have you ever seen a reaction to a certain ester?

Personally, I don't mind pinning every day. The needles are small and painless compared to the ones I used for Cyp. As I mentioned earlier, of the docs I've met at my clinic, the ones who are on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) take Test Propionate and also pin daily. I'm aware that the cost of prop is higher, but my clinic provides mine at the same cost they quoted for Cyp.

I too get bloat on test cyp - and that is with my E2 (sensitive test) in the low 20s. When I switched to Test Prop, no more bloating. I also have low SHBG and that may have something to do with it. Just my 2-cents
