when you inject test e, your levels build slowly over 6 weeks.
after this point there is still some small fluctuations in TT levels.
this is because test e will make your levels as high as their gonna get within 48 hours of administration. so that is the peak, then over the next 5 days they fall, slowly, then you do another shot and they peak again.
so if i do 1 shot a week of test e, the timing of my blood test will be crucial in determining where at in the peak/trough im getting a reading.
so, if i draw blood on day 7 after test e shot (once TT has stabilized after 6 weeks) i will be measuring the trough, not the peak. the peak happened about 6 days prior.
so if test e has a rough half-life of 7 days, then i know levels will be half of what they were 7 days after shot.
in the study i showed you, TT was measured at 22-2800 in numerous individuals. the blood draw was 7 days after the shot though, so what were the levels of the subject day after shot? 6 days prior to blood test? we can only guess but because of half-life its fair to say double. blood draws are always done in the trough, clinically.
all this is just an estimation, the problem is there are too many factors that go into determining the half-life, all the way down to the time of day of the shot, BF%, age of subject I could go on and on and on.
here is another thing, if you do 2x a week shots, your levels will never get as high, or drop as low........following me?
