[patmowery]

Been on solberg labs test e 25 mg eod sub q for 6 weeks. Started out only on test to see how I handled this setup. Had my blood done before I started my level was 407. Now it's 100 points lower? Think my test is bad or any Suggestions please?

You need a higher dose. This is enough to shut down your natural endogenous production but it is not a sufficient exogenous dose. Seems low so I wonder about the testosterone and lab. No need to dose more than 2x weekly. Why don't you try 100 mon and thurs and re test in a month. This is only slight increase but gives chance to make sure this is not a spurious result

Did you get E2 tested? High E2 will result in lower Test numbers. I'd go to 50mg EOD and retest since the blood levels resulting from therapy aren't linear. 25mg EOD got you to 300's but 50mg EOD may put you over range.

I didn't get a e2 test this time but did originally and it was good. Didn't think with such a low dose it would spike enough to warrant a e2 test 6 weeks in but that was just my thoughts? Think I should have another test done with both before I change my dosage?

It would be helpful to know your E2 levels. If its low also then your dose needs to be raised to get it in range, assuming no AI are being taken.

You are correct no AI.

Yeah i mean you need 150 mg a week if you want to be above 500mg. Do a search online and most people are in the range of 500-700 on 150 mg a week. You are only doing half that.
