TRT boosting newbie needs a little help

[joedogg9999]

Ok so im on TRT, 100mg t cyp a week with no arimidex. I would like to boost with 500mg for 10-12weeks. I know I will need to add arimidex but my question is how much? My e2 levels are perfectly fine on 100mg a week and no ai. Would 1mg liquidex suffice on 500mg test? Obviously ill have to trial and error but is thaf a good starting point?

Also, since im on trt, is it really as easy as just upping my dosage to 500 a week (250x2) and then going right back to 100mg a week after week 10? Is one 10-12week cycle per year sufficient for moderate gains? (Not trting to be ronnie coleman here).

Will I experience any side effects I havnt already with my current regimen? For example, is hairloss determined by the amount of synthetic testosterone or just by the fact its synthetic and not natural? Ive been on trt for about 8 months now and my hair is fine.

When I first started trt I had a few week period of slight "rage" moments. Will I succomb to this again?

Will sex drive increase or decrease?

I guess the MAIN point of this thread is to see if im on trt, is it really as easy as upping the dosage for 10-12 weeks. Thanks guys.

I am on TRT and am looking to do the same thing after my Dr appt. All the info I have gotten is yes, it is just a matter of upping the Test to 500mg week. I currently do 100mg but pin twice a week. I also take liquidex e3d at .25mg as my E2 went up when I went on TRT. I would suggest that you have a SERM on hand if you start getting some gyno.
Nice thing about TRT is no PCT needed. Just back the dosage down to 100mg again after the cycle. I have heard it takes about a month to level back down though, so make sure you have that much time before the next Dr bloodworm.

A common starting AI dose for 500mg of test/week is .25mg of Arimidex every other day. Get blood work about 4-6 weeks in or sooner If you run into issues to see where your E2 is at. Adjust based on blood work results.

Whether or not you gain muscle will depend on your diet, sleep and training.

Test just speeds up hair loss IF you are going to lose your hair. It is just hair. Get over it.

Rage is typically due to estrogen and low T. Makes for a grumpy male. High test levels generally make one very happy and very horny! My wife thinks I am the happiest and nicest guy in the world when I am blasting test.

Sex drive usually increases. Make sure your girl/boy friend or spouse know what is coming in several weeks and that you will need them to be ready. Seriously -- have the conversation about your blast and what he/she should expect.

Make sure you end your cycle in time to get your levels back to normal before your next doc appt. Get blood work done before that to confirm you are all set. You dont want to have high numbers pop up for your doc.

Thanks for all the help. How do I go about getting bloodwork without a doctors prescription?

Am I allowed to ask for arimidex sources here?

And about the hair, when I first got on trt I never had noticable hairloss, I would just see more strands on my desk/pillow and such than I remember before trt. I dont know if I was just noticing more because my hair was longer and It was always on my concious due to worrying about it. But I havnt noticed it in a long time. Do you think im fine?

Also, I do train, and have been for a few years. Obviously my natural levels of 242 t had me plateauing pretty early in my muscle building potential. Ive had noticeable size gains since starting trt (about 12lbs worth, some fat maybe but mostly muscle).

No acne issues, although im not OVERLY worried about that. Some more facial hair growth would be nice.


Edit: I forgot to add, im assuming there will be some size lost after going back to 100mg. Is this correct?

Get blood work at Private MD - Buy Lab Tests Online. most guys here get the Hormone Panel for Females (for men too). Costs about $50 and you get results in about 24 hours.

You can get adex at RUI. Look for the ad with the red lion at the top of your screen.

It is just hair. Stop worrying about it. Cut it short. Move on with life.

You won't lose size unless you have exceeded your genetic potential. I am guessing you are a long ways away from that.

I clicked the red lion for RUI Products in an attempt to source some Arimidex and it goes nowhere? Anybody else able to get to their website?

I had hair loss to begin with so would not have noticed anymore going away when I started TRT. Short hair is nice, no shampoo or conditioner, just wash with soap, quick towel dry and go. Wouldn't want hair again even if I could. LOL
I've done the PrivateMD labs and they are great, quick turnaround and easy to do.

Raloxifene

Raloxifene

Hmm never heard of that one. Its better than nolva/chlomid?

 

[Megatron28]

It is for gyno.

It is for gyno.

Ok, cool. So when I begin the blast and liquidex, should I start taking the arimidex the week prior to prepare for the 500mg t cyp? Or should I begin it after the blast has begun? And on what days is it best to take the liquidex in relation to my actual t shots?

Just start the adex when you start your blast - same time. And then take it EOD after that.

awsome. So something like this:

250mg t cyp on tuesday and saturday
.25mg liquidex on tuesday, thursday, saturday, monday ect
HCG 250iu monday and friday (or thursday and friday)
