Why would total test be this high?

Hey All,

Everyone is different, different dosage and results etc.

My latest and last couple been getting up this way also.

> 1500 (they didnt print measurement because it was greater than this).

This is morning before next injection (7th day)

On 250mg Test E, every 7 days.

I almost never see anyone that high off that dosage.

Of course your high you're taking 250 every week. That's not testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), it's more like a light cycle.
 
250 e7d is NOT a light cycle..everyone is different. I'm taking 200 e5d which equals to the same amount over the course of a month. A lot go guys on HRT keep there test range between 1200-1500. Lower your dose if you don't feel comfortable where you test level is.

4weeks =28days @250 per shot e7days 4 shots =1000mgs
4weeks =28days @200 per shot e5day 5 shots= 1000mgs
 
Actually D77 some guys do run 250mg wk as a light cycle and make some "ok / mild" gains above normal. Not everyone is going to repond that well to 250mg though for others it's just enough for TRT. Everyone metabolizes diffrrently.

A cycle has a beginning and an end.. testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is for life.. People on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) do not CYCLE on and off ..
That aside, I wouldn't feel comfortable keeping my test level above 1500- and you don't even know how much higher than 1500!?.. That's a little scary..Try to Knock it down to 150-175 a week and see how you feel
 
I was consistently >1500 at 200mg E5D and 125mg E3D. My last blood test showed me in the 1200's taking 75mg every 84 hours.
 
Mopar you missed my point. Of course some guys use 250mgs as a cycle, hell some even start out at 100mgs... A guy with normal test ranges can put himself above the normal test ranges with a low dose. But were not talking about guys with healthy test levels.

Corvettels3 stated that because he was taking 250mgs e7d that he is not dong testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) but a light cycle ?! Half the guys on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) start out at 200mgs e5d and if you look at my math above e7d is pretty damn close to a standard protocol for someone with low t.
 
Just to correct one thing here: Natty shuts down to near zero healthy or not within a week or so of starting exo test so no difference between a healthy guys levels and non-healthy on the same dose (other then how each individual metabolizes). I won't discuss testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) dosing that's up to the individual and their DR. Ie the OP should lower the dose with Dr if it makes him feel better.

I agree the ol nuts do shut down but the stating test levels would be drastically different, thus making the overall difference. We don't even know what his test level is, just thats it's above 1500. I would have asked for a refund on the blood test! But yes I do think he should lower his dose. My overall point was that 250mgs for someone with low t might be perfect and too much for others like getalpha. He should be happy he can get away with less a lower dose.

Agreed!

I think you mean 100mg e5d. I really don't think 400mg every 10 days is testosterone replacement therapy (TRT). Hell I'm over 1000 with only 100mg every 10 days.

If you look at the OP results he is over 1500 on the 7th day. Can you imagine what his levels are at day 2 or 3..
 
No I ment 200e5d! Corvettels3, everyone is different! Just cause you can get you test up 1000 on 100mg e10d doesn't mean everyone else can. You sound like the doctor I fired when I signed up with Maximus.... trying lable everyone elses situation based on your own.

We all agree here 250mg for getalpha is too much but don't lable everyone else based on your results...don't we all wish we could get in test to a 1000 on just 100mg e10d

calm down mofo.. You are forgetting what the OP question was. I think we can both agree that he needs to lower his dose.
 
For lack of knowledge I have to ask would you still suggest lowering the dosage if there were no sides n feeling good? Is there any harmful damage being done if you were to sustain such high levels? Cycles I know but testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) is all new for me.
 
Most likley over time increased risk of cardiovascular issues for one. I've read a number if studies and that's one thing that's agreed upon. I'm sure there are others. Nothing is for sure IMO just increased risk of some things. We know below normal test increases risk for all sorts of things over time so in my mind it's logical to assume above normal (although who knows how far above) over time would also (others won't agree I am sure). But I think its just like very low or very high blood presure or very low or very high blood suger. Or very low or very high red blood cells. Everything has balance you don't want it in extreme IMO, not long term anyway.
