Been trying to get on trt

[Bjuls08]

So I’ve been working with my doctor to try and get on trt for a few months now and it’s been extremely difficult. My levels came back at 302 and they were giving me. A hard time about proceeding and basically turned me down. Of course it would work out this way. I decided to get test E elsewhere and I had my first injection last Friday. My doctor called today and said they need one more round with of testing done and if my levels come back in the same range they would start TRT. I know test E can take up to 3 weeks for noticeable changes but does anyone know if it will show up in my blood work 1 week after injection?

Testosterone Enanthate (Test E) has a relatively long half-life, typically around 4-5 days, meaning it can take some time to show noticeable changes in blood levels. After one week, it’s likely that Test E will show up in your blood work, but it may not be at its peak levels yet. Blood tests after 7 days may still show slightly elevated levels, but it would be better to wait a couple of weeks for a more accurate reflection of the treatment's effect.


However, individual responses vary—some people might see a noticeable difference in their blood work earlier, depending on factors like metabolism and dosage.


If you’re concerned about this, you might want to discuss the timing of the test with your doctor to align it better with the expected peak levels of testosterone from your injection.
