Just did my first injection last night. I'm on 100mg/week split into 2 doses of 50 every 3.5 days. Going for Blood Work in 4 weeks. When should I donate blood for the first time?

Donating anytime is great for humanity and will hopefully help save somebodies life.

Thinking you need to flush blood doing a legit TRT, nah...not needed. You start getting into crazy doses to baseline and aid other test beds in the rats, then it becomes mandatory...but for simple TRT, not required, but good for other's :)

Completely depends on the individual, there are some on TRt who still need to donate regularly. I've been on for 9 months and haven't had to donate yet, but my HCT is slowly creeping up so is something that I will have to do in the near future.
 
Thanks for the info guys. My hematocrit was right in the middle of the range before I started, and the training I do requires a lot of endurance, so I'll probably hold off for now, but keep an eye on it and donate if it starts creeping up.
 
I have a question regarding TRT and sleep apnea. My Dr sent me for a sleep study several months ago and my apnea episodes were not conclusive enough to merit a retest for the second night. But since then I have been falling asleep more at my desk after lunch and waking up at night. Does the apnea get progressively worse with time? And should I continue to discuss this with my Dr about retesting? Thanks for any information.

It can, especially if you continue to gain weight.

To you know what your total testosterone level is?
 
All of my blood work has came back in my through around the 900s. I have been careful to not come in to the Drs office too high on my labs as I don't really want my scrip reduced. I have felt great and made improvements in the gym, minus some restless nights not able to get in to full REM sleep. I am prescribed 200mg weekly with 1mg AI weekly.

What is your estradiol at? That is a hefty AI dosage.
 
Unfortunately I don't have any current blood work, I'm actually due for labs and scrip refills with my Dr appointment in a few weeks. I will ask about the estrogen levels. I don't remember exactly what it was running on my last visit and don't want to tell you wrong.
I would like to start a proper thread at some point, Including my total blood work to see if anything is off or catches someones eye and needs addressed. Thanks for the reply.
 
I am 40 years old and in good health. my cholesterol is and bloodwork is great. Doctor put me on 300mg depo-test shot every other week but no AI or HCG. my Test level was around 170 to start, which is that of an 80 year old man. I am not sure what the final dosage and inject schedule will be until my bloodwork is done a few times and he finds what is right for me. once he gets my dosage dialed in I won't have to see him for a year. I am liking how I feel and I am already thinking about enhancing my treatment or even running a cycle and then dropping back down to the therapeutic doses between doctor visits. Has anyone done this before? and Does anyone have an example cycle? I plan to do my homework and gain as much knowledge as I can. I figure if I'm on test anyway I may as well get something out of it.

You are on a really bad TRT protocol and estradiol problems will catch up with you quickly. Read the Basic TRT Overview sticky thread.

Cycling/Blasting should be discussed in the AAS section, not here is the TRT section. Please take those questions over there where guys can help you out.
 
Thanks. I am in a small town and there is not a doctor that specializes in TRT. I may have to add an AI later myself. I read the TRT overview it was very good.

As Megatron said you are on a bad TRT Cycle. I'm beginning TRT, and from what I read here and from other places you need to be injecting at a minimum weekly. Which means that your 300mg dose should be 150mg 1x a week. Some people promote splitting your weekly dose into two injections every 3.5 days to keep your blood levels more stable.

For now I'm going to be following a protocol created Dr. Crisler whom specializes in TRT Therapy. THe protocol is laid out as

Test injection 1x a week.

On day 5 and 6 after your injection you inject 250iu of hCG each day. Then you take your next scheduled test injection at the beginning of the next week. Most people will recommend not using an AI until you show symptoms of estradiol being elevated too high, or your bloods show that they estradiol is beginning to get too high. Dr. Crisler has some good documents posted on his TRT Protocol, HCG usage, and a PowerPoint covering what bloods should be done initially and what should be tracked ongoing.

His site appears to be having some issues at the moment, but it will be back at some point I'm sure. http://allthingsmale.com Look under the publications link

I finished my last cycle (test e 500 mg/w and deca 300 mg/w)a few years ago with a proper PCT (volva and clomid pharma grade), but since then i`m always sleepy, low motivation , low sexual apetite , tired all the time = feeling like a zombie. How can i get over this stage, i`m just 31 y, and i feel like a 65 y old man.And i must tell that i`m much angryer since then, for almost everything.Also i remarqued on my last 2 cycle that i`m not full of energy, i`m oposite to that, i`m much tired when on test.What`s the explanation

Have you gotten blood work to check your hormone levels? We could compare that to your pre-cycle baseline blood work assuming you were smart and did that.

See my signature below for how to get blood work without having to go through a doctor or ask you doc to get your the labs you need.
 
Hi I'm M 25 age 71 kg weigh 1.89 cm tall , single, normal diet
I've been working out more than half two years and for the last two months i started feel my body has no energy with exhaust and tried while working out, some friends advised me to do testo test, I've done it and these are the results below :

testosterone 3.2 pg/ml normal value(2.5-10)
FSH 21 mIU/ml normal value(1-14)
LH 16 mIU/ml normal value (0.7-7.4)
TSH 0.7 u/l(0.5-5.5)
T3 2.3 n.mol/l(1.2-2.85)
T4 135 n.mol/l(54-152)

Is that testo ratio causes the exhaust and tried ? and does it has a relation with my beard hair because its not completed and there is an empty spot between beard and chin hair...I'm thinking of 500 mg/wk test E .

What do u suggest for me to do plz ?
