Testosterone Cypionate

[GymLift]

Are you still on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT). If so, what is your dosage like.

For most men on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) using testosterone cypionate, 100mg/week brings their serum testosterone into the upper 1/4 of the normal range. Some guys need more, some guys need less.

Also, I have a question. I have noticed that my stool is darker than before I was on this stuff. It is really dark brown. What does this mean.

It probably means that you are dehydrated. It is very possible that your body is holding onto water because you received a 400mg testosterone cypionate injection. This is for two reasons:

1) The body tends to hold onto water during hormonal shifts
2) Increased testosterone means increased estrogen. Increased estrogen means you will hold more water.

Thanks bro, I guess that the dark stool is not something to be stressed out about. I get really worried about stuff, so I kind of freaked out.

Hey guys, I was wondering if it is common for the doc to allow you to bring your test injections home with you. I start work on the 25th and I won't be able to make it to the doc's office for my shot. So, will he think I am stupid if I ask him to take it home.

Historically, nurses couldn't even give injections. But things changed and nurses eventually were giving more injections than the physicians. But the patients didn't do injections. And that's changing now. Increasingly, physicians are allowing patients to do their own injections.

Tell your physicians that you've been chatting with other guys on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) and all of them do their injections at home. Tell him that this is likely going to be a long-term thing for you and you would like to do them at home as well. Hopefully, your physician isn't so old fashioned that he won't let you do it.

I hope he will let me, becasue if not, I can not go get them anymore after the 25th. I work Monday-Friday 8-4:30. He closes at 5. I am an hour or more away. So, we will have to work something out.
