Doc discontinued trt

[szshaver]

I do 250 2x a week as i am not doing it for TRT replacement. But one study i saw used 250 every other day and it mimicked normal production by something like 96%

What is your test according to bloods with that protocol?

 

[szshaver]

My test came back over 1500 and my doc said “looks great!”
He likes keeping test as high as possible. Find a new doc

I did...me hahah. I am currently injecting Test Cyp 75mg on Monday and Friday for a total of 150mg/week. I am also injecting HCG 250 on the same days. Will get bloods done to see where I am at.

I go to a men’s clinic, where they prescribe everything “off label”. A PCP will cut you off for being over 1000ng/dl, the past two places I’ve been completely honest with saying hey I’ve been on trt for 3 years now and I do cycle from time to time and want to do it in a responsible manner. Do I pay out of pocket, you bet. You can’t account for insurance to pay for your testosterone if it’s higher than a teenagers when you go in for blood work. If you want to stay going the insurance route, inject 5 or 6 days before going in, have a cheese pizza for dinner the night before and eat before you go in to tank your levels and keep that script running

How does this have an effect exogenous test? Are you tying to manipulate aromatase?

If you are talking about my testosterone levels. They are in the high normal between the HCG and the test i inject daily.

I don’t know about a cheese pizza, but eating a whole box of donuts the morning of severely lowered my levels before I got tested

Edit: my bad, this is when I was off all test and getting a script. I don’t know if it will effect anything if you’re injecting your test

Staying up all night and having a few drinks did the trick for me

Im or subq

Im or subq

All my injections have been sub-q for a few years.

 

[MackCoach]

Yep, I am just taking it on my own now at 100mg per week.

You made a good choice
These days we have easy access to pharmaceutical grade gear online with no prescription or Dr visits needed
Just make sure you get labs done and have them properly diagnosed

I'm glad to have read this bc at mid 50's my total T was over 1200 and I was only taking 100mg a week. Within that 3 mos I made a mistake and took a daily dose trt of 12.5mgs- don't ask me why- I guess my old ass did it habitually early one morning forgetting which protocol I was on- probably overwhelmed with shit to do that day and not thinking straight- so that week I took 100mgs + 12.5mgs the same.day...then one week I shot 125mgs but other than that it was 100mgs a week and when he told me like 1260something I was like no F'n way! And he lectured me I was like: Doc I'm not juicing up I swear! lol However, It worked out for me bc I had to move and I stopped TRT altogether and after 2-3 weeks of moving- all that heavy lifting trying to get out and I started back in the gym with gusto doing my "crazy walks" where I walk fast, shadow box a lil(former fighter), dance a little, Do some calesthenics, bounce a golf or tennis ball, throw up a football over the powerlines and catch it etc.. a lil over a mile to the gym and im all hyped from my 80's electro funk and I hit the gym at a rather fast work pace and go intense hit it and get out in 30 minutes or so before only fast walking half way back and then casually walking meditatively the last half- I don't need TRT. Boners every night and morning. Feel full and strong and days are bright. Bust my wife's old ass guts- your welcome. Hahaha So it worked out for me but I couldn't figure that one out. Like how 100mgs a week and a cheat of 12.5mgs extra and 25mgs extra during 3 months could send my T that high. At my age I don't want my T that high. I rather be around 700. I'm married with kids 1 of which is only 7 and autistic so I have to live long for her and that's priority numero uno. Idc how I look compared to that.
I'm taking a bunch of supps and 5mgs amlodipine but nothing I can think of to raise my T levels to feel like this. My nuts aren't exceptionally full but not raisins either but I feel great. I'm ornery in the way I used to be like I see some dude being inconsiderately selfish and I want to smack the shit out of him and I'm noticing women again but I don't creep on the young ones. Late 30's+ can send me into the mini fantasy though- lol But like 5 seconds before it involves my wife then I'm into her or get bored- either or- old age I guess. Haha But I thought I was crazy. 126something?! Off 100mgs a week? I'm glad it happened bc I want to get off All meds. I'm still 235ish with a 4 pack at 5'11.8" since I've lost a Lil height. Was 6'0.25" I'm more athlete than bodybuilder but I support the community first hand so it's just my personal preference for me. So still, Idk how my test was that high as I dont Remember how long before the test I took my last 100mg shot but it eases my mind I'm not the only one that happened to along with the op and other posters.
Anyways glad to have read this and also glad it freaked me out and got me off trt and doing good. It sucked at first but it got better.

No offense @Care1 that was an interesting rant!

You doc should have done a "peak" and "trough" blood draw. Most people do theirs once a week, two at best, which if doing daily, you wouldn't have a "trough". This is fine, your levels would just be pretty even all the way through the week.
That said, I'm a bit surprised at a 1200level ng/dL from 100mg/wk. I have to ask, are you sure you didn't pin a bit more than that? Or was your test pharma grade? If not USP grade, it could be overdosed.
I run 100mg a week, have been for decades. My levels run right about 625, which fits me right middle of the reference range. When I add a bit one a year at 250mg, I then jump to the 1000ng/dL range.

All that said, if you don't need it now.. all the better! I have damaged kids, so no chance I'll ever get back to "normal".

that's a good doctor!

 

[fredmac82]

My Dr. stopped prescribing trt bc he says my levels are too high (>1500). I have loads of test cyp and am continuing 100mg of test cypoinate @ 1 injection/week. I can't believe they just stopped it after being on prescribed trt for 4 months. I'll still get bloods done ever 2 months to see where I'm at. Has this happened to anyone else?

With levels that high most doctors will stop your prescription. They know you must be double dipping and to protect themselves professionally they will stop your prescription. Samething happened to a buddy of mine. He had two test come back over the test levels the doctor was looking for and he told him why he stopped the prescription.

It was my experience and I shared it. If I have something to say I say it. I'm too old and too within love to gaf what anybody thinks about it/me. I'm sorry to hear that you have damaged huevos bro. I certainly didn't mean to rub it in anyone's face I was doing well off TRT. I'm surprised myself hell. I have a long in time cycle history. 1992 organon sust redijects with an 18G needle was my first. Gained 22 lbs off 1 shot a week. Haha Still didn't necessarily think my sporadic light cycles should cause me to need TRT nor did I think my old 90's party days were the reason. Honestly I didn't know why- I just felt like shit and had raisins. lol So I tested at 400-something and was like.fuck this I'm jumping on TRT. Low as possible and overtime I felt I was feeling good enough in the 600's and I knew what the norm for starting TRT dose was and it just so happens if I split that into weekly instead of bi weekly shots I felt good enough on 100mgs a week and I was glad that was at 600 something test in my mid 50's happily married with a young autistic daughter.

I wouldn't come on a board full of roid discussion and lie about how little I took TRT I took. Haha I been on boards sporadically since 2000 Heavily at times. The only reason I responded, as I don't post much, is bc the thread helped me see I wasn't the only one that got a high reading from a small dosage. Hence why it might have excited me a lil bit lol bc I was kinda freaked out by it and I like figuring shit out and couldn't quite figure that one out(why my test was so high off so little). So to see a cpl more have similar experiences relieved me a little. Made me excited bc I could let go of some of the worry as to why. I'm no expert on blood tests so this is my first odd occurrence besides non related issues that showed in my blood work a cpl years ago and why I get bloodwork every 3 months. It's always ibeen an alternating 1 thing in my bw is off but the one constant has been my test at 600-something. lol...Until last time. That and my blood sugar was up which was the other constant good. lol

As far as it being the test itself; it was the same bottle as previous blood draw. An overfilled 10ml bottle of 250mg test ÷ .4ml(100mg) weekly shots is 25 shots/weeks and I draw blood every 3 mos bc its not just to test my test levels. So the easy way of showing it's not the test is: I had 3 bottles of test from same batch in my med cabinet. I used one for previous tests that came back 600 something like always. Idk exactly 650-670 When it's 600 something I never give it another thought. lol I used the 2nd bottle for 1 previous test and the 1200 something one and still have another one in there unopened bc I quit. So there's no need to go into a thorough and anal discussion here about the test itself- where it came from, processes and janoshik testing- etc....all things I understand. I know UG gear's batch number can mean nothing also. Still not necessary in this situation.

So I have no reason to lie & It wasnt the testo itself regardless of UG or legit pharma company. Maybe I took my shot too close to the blood draw bc I never even thought about it. Had no reason to bc my test levels were so consistent and like I said I'm no expert on bloodwork but I'm learning quick. lol I might should have known not to take the shot close to the test but I didn't and had no reason to learn bc hell it's only 100mg test! lol And my test levels were the one thing I never had be off until the last time it was 1200something. I know now though if I get back on TRT.

I'm praying to baby Jesus in a tortilla diaper that my test is at least in the high 500's this next test if not 600's without TRT.

And I should say this: I'm in a very Joyful time in my life with my less than 10 to late teen kids at home and a wife that I love and that clips my toenails- lmao So with all this love flowing in and out or through me- maybe that's why I feel so great? Hell, my test levels might come back 200! Haha We shall see in a month I guess. lol again Mid 50's- not a jacked up youngster. Even in my 40's I was different so I realize I seem way out of place here hence why I don't post much. That doesn't mean I'm not in the know- hence why not knowing why it happened drives me nuts. Haha So, I came here and saw other posters have similar experiences and I'm done with it til my next bloods. It'll be 4 months this time as I'm also trying to come off 10mg artorvastatin so I gave it an extra month. I did lie to reschedule another month away for that. lol

This is my experience that's all it is.
