Been on many protocols, low and high dose, but noticed no perceivable changes mentally (i.e. libido, energy) - basically was just like injecting water. I do have low Vit D (19 ng/ml, range is 25-100). Does anyone know if having abysmally low Vit D would reduce the effectiveness of TRT?

Your choosing of ignoring my Q gives me my answer. Your boys took a hit. No one is safe unsurprisingly.

You made a claim but then later contradicted it. I assume you agree it's natural to have fluctuating highs and lows throughout the day. So what exactly is your argument here? From that quote, you're saying having lows in the hypogonadol range is normal only in men with normal hpta functions...

I'd agree with this as a general statement. The difference between us is, I acknowledge that this may also be the most optimal protocol for certain others. I don't use blanket statements because I acknowledge everyone's biochemistry is different and thus even the most farfetched protocols may...

Are you a doctor? You have the mindset of one, where literature triumphs everything. Refusal to acknowledge the exceptions to the rule due to pride. Your comment implies spiking T temporarily once daily is bad, ineffective, useless, etc. Maybe for some, not for others. Clearly you've dismissed...

Yet things don't always play out how science and theory suggests. Stating absolutes like 'it's pointless' is ignorant when it clearly worked for some. Had those fellas dismissed this piss poor protocol like you suggest, they wouldn't have found a hidden gem.

These guys would argue otherwise. https://www.excelmale.com/forum/threads/testosterone-no-ester.19870/#post-162158 https://www.excelmale.com/forum/threads/testosterone-suspension-for-trt.3246/

I was planning on doing 10mg/day, once daily. From the few anecdotes I've seen here they ran that protocol and felt good. Given they did 3x a day and still remained functioning, if I only do 1x a day I would assume that's more than enough time in between doses for continued hpta function. That...

How much mg testosterone base/day do you think would be safe to not cause suppression? I could be the guinea pig and test your theory out. Was planning on running low dose test base daily anyway once I get it.

Speaking about testosterone no ester in oil, not testosterone suspension which is water based. I've only seen a few users here post about it, but they all mentioned they felt better on it compared to estered testosterone. Apparently you can get by injecting it once daily, due to the oil...

Care to update? You mentioned you haven't experienced any testicle atrophy back then. Been some years since. How are your testicle size now with no hcg?

Daily administration. Interesting that you guys said a few weeks. Everywhere else I've read people say as soon as the body senses exogenous T, shutdown occurs immediately.

Say you injected Test Prop for the first time. 1) How long after the first injection will the body stop producing it's own T? 2) How long after the first injection will the body be fully cleared of it's own endogenous T?

I'm wondering if an injection schedule of test propionate every other day would suffice, instead of daily. Would it still work given its short half life? Does anyone have any experiences with using prop eod?

Also this doesn't make any sense. As I said earlier, the more water you drink, the lower your hct will show up on the test. If anything, you don't want to be hydrated during the test if you want to see accurate hct values.
