Is my Test E underdosed or am i expecting too much?

[Trainforyourself123]

6 weeks into my cycle of testosterone enanthate. running 500mg per week in 2 injections, monday and thursday.

Sex drive increase, weight increase - however nothing more than i would have expected from just eating more?

Am i expecting too much from this or do you think my testosterone is underdosed, training and diet are perfect also.

What does everyone else notice at 6/7 weeks of test e 500mg a week?

Thanks

A 50 dollar blood test is better than any speculation by us. You've definitely been on long enough, I'd hit up one of the places in Megatron28's signature and KNOW if it is a matter of expectation, or underdosed gear.

I'm in the UK and it's a nightmare to get blood tests here.

The latest you should notice it so to speak is around now... Although, it sounds like it's legit to me.

Has your strength increased? Pumps? Vascularity? Fullness? Ultimately, do you look different? Are people abnormally commenting that your looking bigger? Are clothes getting tighter?

I don't know exactly what you expected, I know some people expect too much and some people are blown away and in all honesty it correlates with how well they are diet and training (which will determine results). I went from 70kg to 82kg on 250mg of Test E by the end of the 12 week.

Firstly, though if I was you I would go get blood tests. Check for Testosterone, Estradiol, SHBG, Hematocrit... If you can only test for Test and E2 then great still. At 500mg per week, your test levels will not be within and even at the top of the range, they should be well and truly atleast 2x the upper limit on 500mg of Test. Post back the results once you get them... Also, e2 may be elevated and could be blocking some of the mental effects that you were expecting. This will tell us where you're at and ultimately whether your Test is real, to a less extent how real but put it this way... Even if it's underdosed, 300mg of Test provided the condition to build yourself more than what you can achieve naturally... This isn't BS, this is fact.

Post your diet up too.

Post a pic up of the Test as well maybe.

Yeah, i don't think its bunk, however i think it doesn't have 250mg/ml, maybe 150mg or something - there is definite increase in sex drive, yes im bigger, however this could just be due to diet and training - im sure i could have got the results without the gear im saying i guess.. ill try get bloodwork done.

E2 could be elevated, taking 0.5 adex every 3 days, also not sure if i can post photos of the test, but its Orbis Labs Test E 250mg test per ml, im switching labs tomorrow as ive ran out, so i guess this may also tell me if the gear was weak or not.

Thanks

Still say it is 150mg... 300mg of Test per week is FAR more than what the body will ever naturally produce and you should still see results from that if your diet and training is on point.

Have never heard of the lab, maybe someone else can chime in. However, this is really a moot question, we can only confirm so much by what you tell us...Bloodwork is the straight answer to tell what you want to know my friend.

expecting too much IMO...

around 5-6 weeks i START to notice fullness and pump, libido, slightly better recovery.. weeks 8-16 are my sweet spot

you get increased sex drive from eating more?? that's a new one

remember the results are almost entirely diet determined... if you think you are eating enough, you're probably not

 

[JimiThing]

Exactly what I was going to say.....

 

[Southernfish]

I think it might be an issue of expecting too much. A lot of guys, and im not putting you in that category, im just sayin, expect when they get on a cycle theyre gonna blow up and explode in size. This is not the case usually, especially if the right foods arent eaten at the right time and the right amount of them.

I have to wonder how long some of these dudes been lifting. I was in my mid 40's before I made the plunge. For years my natural test had slowly been dwindling as I worked out. Pumps were way harder to come by and I basically looked the same for a decade.
44 then and doctor prescribed 100 mg test c/week. After 3 weeks go by, and found my first morning wood in years. Weeks later I hit the gym again after an extended layoff. The pumps were back, and the sore legs after squats stopped after just a few days instead of 8.
My point is with all this rambling is I didn't have to wonder if the testosterone was the cause. It made a HUGE difference in libido, recovery, body comp( after a few months).

My point is most of the guys I read about on a lot of these sites are nowhere near their genetic potential if they have to wonder if their gear has any hormone in it. It should make such a difference that it should be blaringly fukin obvious.

is your skin more oily? that is usually the one thing for me that really proves it's the gear and not my diet...

also the sex drive thing too

Hell yeah, when I blast my skin goes super oily, yet the acne isn't that bad... Just have that juice pimples on my upper back lol.

But like I said, if you want real confirmation get bloods.

 

[Mad- scientist]

Its not uncommon for testosterone to be under dosed its happen to me before. Only way to tell is to find a place that will give you the full value of your test levels not a place that stops at 1500ng/dl. Because with 500mgs a week your levels should be above 1500 from the blood tests ive seen. Everybodys body responds different though.

thank jeebus I'm not the only one that goes super oily and gets back pimples, not bad but there are some....

now if only I didn't have a receding hairline!
