HRT dosage

[Wallace]

I read of unusually high dosages for TRT in many "non medical" forum and sites ...
200mg / wk cyp, for example ...

I have some experience in treating people on TRT, and I have never seen one man who needed 200mg per week ... of course one would feel himself well ... but I have noticed that after about a year the hematocrit starts raising, some people start having minor pissing problems and the BT might be affected as well ...

Any comments, suggestions ...

On 150mg cypionate, my total test came back at 1,112 and the range is between 220-850. My estrogen was like 60 and range was 10-50 I believe. I think 125mg cypionate 1x per week or split in two shots per week is a good hrt dose, with maybe 10mg nolva ed or eod with hcg at 250-500iu 2x per week

The HRT clinic I used 200mg cyp EW was the recommeded for patients. There is more HRT threads if you do a search and a fairly recent thread with the same question.

what day after your shot did you get your blood test? 150 mgs a week isn't going to keep you elevated ar 1,000 ng/dl level. maybe for a day or two.

when i was on 150 mgs. i got my blood tested a few days after the shot and i was something like 650.

bumped that up to 200. i did my shot on Sunday and got blood drawn on the following saturday and my levels were at 575. they were lower despite a higher dose b/c of the day i got my blood drawn.

so they might be peaking at over a 1,000 but drop fast. which sux ass.

i know they say 300-800 is normal. i'm curious what is considered very good. all i can say is that at even at 200 mgs i still don't feel like i did natural when everything was good.

i'm thinking an edocrine system that is working very well might be up near 2,000 ng/dl going by my personal experience.

so IMO. 200 mgs is better than nothing. by no means would i say 200 mgs is "PLENTY".

I was doing 75mg 2x per week. I believe shots were Mon and thurs and the bloodtest was done on a wednesday. HCG was 500iu 2x per week on mon and thurs as well. MY dad is also on hrt and takes 150mg per week with no hcg. His results were almost identical to mine and he only takes one 150mg shot per week. His test was done 3days after his shot.
