Edema on TRT

[Whereicomefrom]

I take 100 mg Test Cyp once a week. I seem to get edema around day 5 thru 7. Then when I take my next shot it goes away. I would have thought edema would be worse when test levels are higher but seems to be just the opposite for me.

Any ideas why or anyone else experience this? Thanks

How long have you been on test cyp? I had fairly good bit of edema when I first started but gradually went away after about 5-6 weeks and hasn't returned.

Testosterone increases water retention in hypogonadal men by affecting kidneys

The effects of growth hormone (GH) on sodium retention and extracellular fluid (ECF) are well established. The mechanisms are not clear but are thought to involve the GH/IGF-I (insulin-like growth factor I) axis. Men and women differ in their ECF and this contributes to men’s higher fat-free...

I been on it somewhere between 5 and 10 years. I've always had it just ignored it. I was just trying to figure out why it was worse at the end of the week when my test levels should be lower.

I'm fixing to read everything madman posted.

That’s weird. Always worst for me day after injection.
