Trough and Peak TT levels...

[Spunkey71]

How long after a injection of Test C does it take to spike your T levels?

 

[3J]

peak levels are reached around week 5-6

 

[methos0123]

peak levels are reached around week 5-6

More like 24 hours

 

[3J]

is he talking about one single injection or a cycle??

if he is talking about 1 single injection you are correct.. about 48 hours in

I inject twice a week (every 3.5 days) and injected at 1:00 am before going to sleep, had a doctors appointment the next morning at 9:00 am and was not aware my doctor was going to want to take bloods. I am just curious if the TT results I got were at the top of a spike or more of a trough reading.

it will be higher than it would at 3.5 days out..

when injecting twice a week you always want to do bloods the morning of the day you inject next...

Thanks!

I went to see him about my pre-diabetes issue and was not expecting him to do blood work for TT since he had done them a month before.

You should have declined the blood work. Tell him you are declining to save money.

I will try that but in the year I have been on TRT I have never received a bill for blood work, my insurance is pretty good in that respect.

No one puts a gun to your head to report to the lab... Next time just wait lol

You can always say that something came up, and you didn't have time to wait on the draw...make something up.

Your doc doesn't need to know that.

Any chance you could just be honest with him and say I just injected "X" number of hours ago and I dont want the results tilted because of that ..... ?

I guess I am just lucky and seem to have a pretty decent relationship with my doc ....

It really isn't a big deal, I got results back yesterday morning and my TT was at 950, I was only asking because I wanted to know if my results would be considered a trough reading or a peak reading.
