I'm on daily subcutaneous testosterone cypionate injections and my doctor always has me do my labs in a 4-5 hour window post injection.
I know T levels are pretty stable on daily injections but does anyone know the timing of the peak and trough for daily subq cypionate injections?
I just want...
I cant find info online or if the info from my book is correct. Basically when we take X amount inject able testosterone our bodies only uses X amount as bio-available?
I.E from the "definitive TRT manual"
100mg Injectable Propionate yields 83mg
100mg Injectable enanthate yields 72mg...
Howdy all. I self-prescribed myself to T Gel 3 months ago, the results were amazing in getting rid of my symptoms (low energy, depression, bad sleep, poor recovery, etc - despite a healthy diet and all). Anyway fast forward 3 months, I realized I'll be doing this long term so I hooked up with...
I have posted a few times about my challenges with e2 management. Well, I gave up trying to dial in with Arimidex, and decided to reduce my dose. My first reduction was from 140 to around 120. It wasn’t fun, but I managed. After 6 weeks my e2 was still running hot, so I went down to about 100 a...
Hypothetically speaking I am injecting 70 mg of testosterone cypionate 100 mg/mL every 4 days. So that’s 7/10 of 1 mL syringe. Now let’s say you’re injecting 70 mg of testosterone cypionate 200 mg/mL which would be 3.5/10 of 1 ml syringe. Would the higher concentration of the 200mg/ml hit...
Random question, but I have testosterone and hcg (powder form, pre mixed) shipping to my place from empower pharmacy, through Defy.
I won’t be home from work until about 4-430 so the testosterone cypionate and hcg powder may be outside in ~85 degree heat, but not in direct sun for 5 or so...
As evidenced by my posts over the past several months - I simply can’t get my e2 dialed in. I’ve tried nearly everything; split dose, sub q, compounded Anastrozole, etc. I’m currently at 140mg Cypionate split between 2 doses, and this puts me in the 1200-1500 total / 3.4 - 3.0 free range. My...
I store my Test Cypionate in a bedroom cupboard which at night time maintains a temperature of about 66F
This week when I went to do my morning injection I noticed that half of the contents had crystallised at the bottom of the vial. I was in a hurry so just drew from the liquid that was left...
I'm somewhat confused. I had not been feeling great - as though my levels have been off. My cypionate schedule is 40mg (0.2 ml) on Sundays and Thursdays. So, I went in for a blood test on Thursday before my next injection:
Testosterone - 907 ng/dL
Estradiol (Sensitive) - 18.7 pg/mL...

Does anyone know the percentage of actual testosterone that's in each ester? I'm having a hard time finding any conclusive numbers. I'm switching over to propionate, from cypionate, and would just like to know how to do the conversion. I can figure that part out once I have the percentages of...
After reading a bunch of accounts, I think I'd like to try a combination of injectable and cream T. I am currently only on cream (applied trans-scrotally), and I work with a telemedicine provider.
But MA has some pretty strict restrictions on ordering T. I am only permitted to have 6 weeks'...
Hello Everybody,

I am currently on my 6 week on Cypionate
Having 200mg twice a week.
By the 3rd week I was feeling a great increase in vital Energy overall and sex Drive. After the 4th week I feel a drop in...
I’m wondering if anyone has any anecdotal experiences on different esters. I am currently trying a round of clomid mainly because I was getting really bad headaches on cypionate, with AI without, varying dosages. I was wondering if anyone out there has had similar experiences and tried different...
Hi Guys been on Nelson's forum for a good while but like too make a very important post.
I been on T.R.T for 3 months & half on the Injection protocol prior to that it was 2 Months on Transdermal Compounded TEST Cream, going for a Cholesterol test soon.
By how much did your HDL values drop on...
This may be a very dumb question...
Been doing TRT for about 9 months and am very happy with the improvements.
Just wondering, will injecting cypionate into the forearm instead of the normal glute / thigh area have any positive or negative impact on chronic tennis elbow / tendonosis pain?
Guys,
Labs below. I’m new to the cite but looking for some help. I am currently on week 2 of TRT. I battled with this decision for several years. 3 years ago I had a TT of 359 at age 33. Now 36, I had my labs done and I’m at 602 but my free test is at 13. My SHBG is also high and estradiol on...

I have been on 100 mg a week for 8 weeks now(started trt 6 months ago). My bloodwork came in and I'm a little concerned with my e2. My doc doesn't seem concerned and does not prescribe AIs. Should I be concerned with my bloodwork?

I'm using enanthate instead of cypionate mainly for convenience and price in Europe.
Just read the directions of use and 250mg /ml of enanthate has 180mg of testosterone.
Despite the release time difference. I wonder if cypionate has the same concentration and if we have an equivalence in...
I have been searching threads and thought I saw calculations on accumulation to stability on test cyp injections.
Other sites show BIW and TIW calculations to stability with troughs and peaks.
Does anyone have calculations of this?
I know based on SHBG it differs. I have read stability is...
About 4 weeks ago I went to 2x weekly split dose of Cyp. My doctor told me to always inject weekly so he can test at the trough. He does not know I am doing 2x weekly (50%). When I was on .75mls/150mg per week I was finding I would feel crummy by the 5th day. After splitting the dose I feel more...
Hello ExcelMale forums,
Since being diagnosed with Hypogonadism, I have been a regular lurker, on this forum and many others trying to better educate myself on my condition. Though at this point, I require the advice from those that have dealt with this struggle themselves.

In theory testosterone replacement should approximate the body's own natural production of the hormone. The average male produces 4 to 7 mg of testosterone a day with plasma levels in early morning and lower levels in the evening. Women produce around a 12th of those rates.

Hello Everyone,
I'm excited to be part of this forum.
A little history:
I had been using "steroids" in sports for many years. About six years ago I met someone and decided that I wanted to get off of everything, so I tampered off and went clean for a year. No PCT. Of course, I felt like crap...

I started TRTabout 6 weeks ago. I just had my first follow-up labs and am scheduled to see my endo again this week. I just wanted to post this here to get some feedback and hopefully some suggestions on what to go over with my doc. These are my labs from the past couple of years. I just started...
My Dr. changed me from androgel to an injectable which I explained in a previous thread. When she first ordered the meds she ordered 100mg of cyponate 0.5 bi-weekly. My insurance wouldn't cover cyponate so she ordered ethonate 200mg - 1ml bi-weekly. Is there a significant difference in the 2...
