You guys were right ! Yesterday I got my first shot of
Testosterone cyp for hormone replacement therapy. I barely felt
the syringe go in and when it was all done I could not believe it.
I got all nervous for nothing. I hope I get to feeling better from
this therapy. Thanks for all your advice! I'm not gonna be a baby
any more.

Michael T, :)
 
Hey I am on Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) also. I started at 200mg of test cyp per week then bumped up to 300mg per week. I was just enough to get better pumps. My test levels were already 800. What were your test levels? How much test cyp are you taking. I know the feeling about your first shot. I was kinda nervious also, I had my wife give it to me. Now I am doing them myself, no problem. Anyways good luck.
 
Levels

Hey thunderdman,

My first shot was 200mg and the next one will be 100mg. After
5 weeks I'll have my labs run to see about dosage changes if any.
My levels were 363 before starting Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). First I was on androgel 10 g
for 2 months with ending T levels of 151. Then I switched to testim for 3 months with an ending level of 423. Still felt like crap but I did get some
morning erections back. When my levels are low I struggle with severe back and joint pain. Also, My wife will be doing the injections for me. They are not a big deal.

thunderdman: michael T is doing actual and legitimate Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). 200mg was a front-load, then 100mg a week to start. That does the trick for most people.
 
Not for front-loading. Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) docs often front-load with 2x the usual dosage. This makes sense on paper.
 
To be honest mranak the only reason I am on Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) online doc is bescause I do not have a source. That was the only way I knew how to get Anabolic Androgenic Steroids (AAS) Does this make since? Ya I could tell he was a much more serious Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). I have sourced check with some MOD's with out much luck so far. I live in a small town and have somewhat of a high profile job so its not like I can ask around. Oh Ya and why does front loading not make since on paper?

Nice, but if you don't want to be a baby learn to shoot yourself. Don't most clinics charge about $50 for a nurse-administered injection, PLUS the price of the drug?

For the record......You are NOT on Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), you are just getting your testosterone from a Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) clinic.

It _does_ make sense on paper, and it is probably a good thing to do for Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) patients. It just doesn't give much benefit to Anabolic Androgenic Steroids (AAS) users.

I thought I made that point in this thread, but I guess I wasn't clear enough.

If your total test levels were at 800 before you started 'hrt', I can't imagine any doctor would prescribe you testosterone. What were your free test levels?

They're charltons that happen to have a medical license. They sell Anabolic Androgenic Steroids (AAS) under the guise of Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), but they aren't fooling very many people.

If he's doing 100mg/week, if it's not HRT then what is it? It's certainly not a cycle...
 
I think the point is, that he is using the HRT clinic as a source. Ture HRT has a very definite protocol for the individual....
 
I don't see anything wrong with using an HRT clinic as a source. Other than paying too much, but from a legal standpoint you are better off than most of us.
 
I just don't like people using HRT to describe AAS. It is really hard for a lot of hypogonadal men to get the HRT that they need because of the stigma.
