Hi everyone I'm 28 and have low t. I first went to doc and was tested and my total was 284. Doc gave me androgel I've been on it for 3 months and went back today and got my results. I'm down to 186 my doc said the gel is not working for me and wanted to switch me to testum gel I said no thanks I want the injections so he told me I would not like them but he will give them to me. He prescribed me 200 mg of test cyp every three weeks and will adjust from there. My main question is Is the injections better then the androgel I sure hope so tired of going backwards. Another question is when can I start working out again and really start to gain strength and see results. Thanks guys
 
Welcome Jackfisk, so you on the right track to recovery. Test injections are way better than gels. However, a shot every 3weeks is not gong to do much for you. Your doctor at this point has proved he does not have the knowledge to get you healthy. A shot every 5-7 days will give you more consistent hormone levels. Spend a few hours and read thru some posts in this forum... Trust me you'll learn a lot. Good luck bro!
 
I'm going to a urologist. I asked him about estrogen and he laughed at me. He said after my first injection we will take blood 2 weeks after and adjust from there. Any word on working out. I was doing p90 x went thru 2 months of it and found out about my low t finally and I quit working out. I was not getting stronger nor was is getting easier like I was progressing . When can I start to work out again and know I'm making a difference Thanks guys
 
I'll see what happens after the two weeks blood draw. I may switch docs. He said he wants me around 400 to 600 and that's good. He said 800 to 1000 is pointless
 
well, there should be about 1000 people that will tell you 800-1000 level is more then twice better then 500 test level.
I have been where you are. get copies of all your bloodwork and send it in to a reutable HRT clinic.
get started.

My test level dropped as well on the gel. weekly injections at the minimum. Estrogen control is just as important as test levels.
HCG, nothing better then natural test, protect it.
