was it from any Ph's or cell tech? or just you had low test to start out with?

[Bauger89]

they are starting me on that in september.. what is your dose/kind of test?



edit- hope this is okay post due to being medical purpose

[TRTbrah]

what dose?

Yep, for life. 150 mg of test cyp a week

Self medicated, or through doctor/pharmacy?

Self medicated. I live in a pretty small city and every doc I saw wanted to prescribe me ****ty androgel yet they put it into my head that shots were the devil. Also gel is hella expensive so I decided to go about it myself.

Meh, if I was to self medicate, I'd just pin 250mg once a week. Put myself well above the normal range. Brb females more attracted to me because they can smell the extra test.

[broshifstalin]

what were your levels before hand?
and what has you dosing 150 instead of 200 as Ive heard a lot of doc's prescribe that/ feeling better yet?

[Bodybreak]

You ever gonna grab some extra cyp under the table and blast at 500/week for 8 weeks here and there to get joocy?

[TRTbrah]

Nah naturally. I started off with hypothyroidism and after months on working on that and the rest of the hormones on my body, I barely got my test levels up to the high 3s. I now have a pretty good thyroid level and just about all my hormones in check. I saw a few doctors and one hormone doc in specific helped me try to find the underlying root. She is not authorized to prescribe shots and wanted me to get on gels but I said nah

150mg a week of test cyp. I also prefer to self medicate because most retard doctors have no idea on the half life of test and like to prescribe one shot every month or so

Notsureifsrs...he's already getting it under the table. Said he's self medicating.

[marcFE]

What was test level before? Cost out of pocket since I imagine insurance isn't covering anything? What was deciding factor in deciding to look into it?

[MarauderBB]

250 a week is a lot for TRT. 100 is probably a lot better.

Don't go getting bald by 24.

Learn how to take your own blood pressure, and make sure you don't have issues with it. At 250 a week you're going to be in the hypertension range almost for sure... you don't want to sustain that past a typical cycle length...

You mutt, Im asking if hes ever gonna bump it a few times a year to pack on size easier.

[Beauuu]

What were the symptoms of your low levels? (this may be a dumb as phuck question idk)

Were you one of those kids that stayed like 5'4" with a high voice? (i knew one on my cross country team)

[Bauger89]

yeah.. I have been to 2 specialist. neither recommended the gel and said they plan on going IM. Idk what kind/dose i'll be getting yet but they gave me cialis for the wait lolz don't need it but waking up every morning spearing my gf

[TRTbrah]

I started off at 210. After doing everything I could to get them up naturally, I was barely in the high 300's. I could have waited a few more years and possibly fixed myself but at 19 the future wasn't looking so bright and I wanted to enjoy the only early 20's I'll ever get to live. Strong logic many say, but you only live life once.

Hell yeah. But not now, right now my goal is to get a stablized dose and get all my blood work squared out. In the future yes I definitely plan to.

Meh, if I was to self medicate, I'd just pin 250mg once a week. Put myself well above the normal range. Brb females more attracted to me because they can smell the extra test.

lol. Well test isn't to expensive but when self medicated an extra 100 mg a week can really add up. Plus I'm only trying to get to normal levels not trying to have dangerously high levels for life. There is a lot of consequences with test levels that are too high

[Bauger89]

What were the symptoms of your low levels? (this may be a dumb as phuck question idk)

loss of hair/barely any body facil hair
depression
fatigue
muscle loss
fat gain
low libido
soft cawk

[gerbilz]

i haven't gotten a proper hard on since 2009

I work in Urology and they are right. Adrogel is decent and is more of a steady dosage. Injection will shoot your test up real high then taper down. Your balls will also shrink.

For short term i would take injections to build lean weight. FOr long term i would go androgen.

Edit: Like all threads like this if anyone has any personal questions feel free to PM ME. I always try to help out in these types of threads.

[asianasethetics]

I just got diagnosed with low test...I see an Endo on Tuesday to be prescribed TRT.

If he wants to put me on the androgel, I can say no just give me the shots right?

Androgel (abbott) or Axiron (Eli Lilly) are reputable brands.

Answered first question above. Cost is about 600 a year or about 50 a month including test, hcg, and an AI. a lot of people think its a big commitment for life, but think about it. You probably spend atleast 50 on supplements a month. And even for non lifters, everyone has one thing they spend on. This is like my own personal investment to make my life better.

250 a week is a lot for TRT. 100 is probably a lot better.

Don't go getting bald by 24.

Thanks for the advice. And yeah bro I plan to go no higher than 150mg a week on my trt dose until im blasing which like I said is still a while away

It's not a dumb question man, it's smart of you to be asking. I can't name them all, but do a quick google search you'll find tons of information on the first page alone.

yeah.. I have been to 2 specialist. neither recommended the gel and said they plan on going IM. Idk what kind/dose i'll be getting yet but they gave me cialis for the wait lolz don't need it but waking up every morning spearing my gf

Nice nice man. I've been criticized for jumping in so young, but you only live once and I don't want to waste the last years of child hood depressed and always worried about my natural test levels.
