Hi all,
So I have been on trt for about 1 whole year. Currently on 40 mg t cyp every 3.5 days with anywhere from 250 - 500 IU hcg twice a week and around .25 mg of arimidex a week.
Anyways even on a low dose I have experienced high hct which has made cardio almost impossible to perform and I just don't feel well. My urine is always somewhat yellow which indicates that my kidneys and or urine are being tax'd quite a bit or something along those line but my various blood panels indicate no issues.
The first few months of trt were great physically as soon as I dialed in the AI. But now I cannot control other factors. Giving blood controlled HCT initially but them my ferritin crashed and I felt like I was dying. I rather be off trt than have low ferritin from frequent blood donations.
Anyways, I took clomid prior to trt at 12.5 mg a day for a month and my total T went to +700 but that was prior to any exogenous test. Wondering what I should take to get myself back up to speed. I see some people indicate 50 mg for 2 weeks followed by 25 for 2 weeks but that is for heavy steroid users.
My dr prescribed 12.5 a day for 3 months but he is basically guessing. I'm overthinking this because I don't want to lose sexual functioning during this transition. was thinking about 50 mg a day for a week then 25 mg a day for a week followed by 12.5 eod for the remainder of the 3 months. I have some arimidex left over as well that I would dabble with incase I see signs of high E. I have experienced this previously using clomid as I assume some of that additional test is aromatizing into E.
Any ideas or proven protocols? There really isnt anything out there that is a solid guide which is quite frustrating.
Thanks!
