Im pretty new to this TRT...I'm a 29yr old. I was very big into lifting up until i was about 26. Started a family and had a few injuries and fell off the wagon for a while.
About a yr ago i started working out again. I have lost ALOT of muscle and gain ALOT of fat. So i started out slow getting back in to it. I figured i was going to be sluggish in the gym for a while.
Well after about 6 months of working out i wasnt gaining anymore energy nore was I losing much fat. Went to the Dr and my Test levels were around 150ng/dl. Started me on a gel. it brought it up to 240ng/dl.
from reading and having younger kids i decided injections were better for me. to many times where kids would wake up right after i put my gel on in the morning and had to hold them away from me.
Dr put me on 200mg/ml every 2 weeks. I feel pretty good after it for about 3 or 4 days. she checked it again about being on shots for 2 months. she wanted it checked at 3 days before my next injections.
When i did that it was about 220ng/dl. she said she wants me to have a lvl over 250ng/dl but she is going to check it 3 days after my injections. Well to me, 3 days after i inject 200mg it will be that high.
Whats do you guys think a good value after 3 days would be? I get my blood drawn tomorrow. Should i talk to my Dr. about maybe uping my dosage to where my total is higher then 250 at the end of the injections to?
What are some suggestions from you guys since alot of you guys have been on it for a while. when i first started i hoping to maintain around 400-800 all the time. I thought about injecting 100mg every week instead.
