Starting TRT questions
ad
I am about to finish 4th cycle and will be beginning TRT afterwards.
Stats:
41 years old
6'3"
212 lbs
bodyfat about 6%
4 cycles first one at age 38/39
After my last cycle my test levels barely reached 300 so figured its time. Did the standard PCT after every cycle, Clomid, Nolvodex, etc.
Now, since my cycle will be ending in a week, should I still do a standard PCT or should I just jump into TRT?
What Test levels should I shoot for while on TRT? (I will be doing blood work monthly until I get everything dialed in.)
Advice on ancillaries? (HCG, etc)
I plan on being on Test E and 1 iu HGH, might add in proviron. Any issues?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance

I wish people would stop referring self prescribed Steroid abuse as TRT. It's insulting to those who are on TRT. Call it what it is. You want to blast and cruse.
You've done 4 cycles in 2 years. How long after your last cycle did you get your blood drawn. Did you get a follow up a few weeks later? One blood draw is not going to give you a good picture of your test levels. At 41 did you ever think it might take a little more time to recover than someone younger?
If you think you need TRT you do it right. You see a doctor and you work with them. What the doctor ends up doing will answer your first question, "What Test levels should I shoot for while on TRT?"
You will not be doing any cycles for a while as the process can take up to six months to "get everything dialed in". And from there you're looking at one or two shots per week for the rest of your life. Yea!
bigwillyits not trt when your treating your self, LOL
Let me define TRT for you.
TRT is doctor diagnosed through careful study and testing using established medical protocol.
Blast and cruse is someone who doesn't want to deal with PCT.
This guy is self diagnosing -incorrectly, that he has low T based on ONE blood test taken (at best) a few weeks after a cycle. (After several cycles only a few weeks apart in fact)
If this guy is seriously concerned about his health and T levels he'd make the effort to see if there is anything that can be done to verify that there is a problem first. and then he would follow an established procedure to establish a baseline for treatment. He would opt for prescribed pharma product and not UGL.
6 months if he is lucky. It took my endo a year and she did labs every month for the first year. After that it only twice a year or when I want to see her.
I don't know why would some one do pct if they are shut down. If your not shut down why would you want to jump into TRT.
Trt is for life. You'll be 80 years old shooting up. Think this through. What if you lose insurance etc. Factor all your cost like if you had to pay out of pocket.
Just my opinion. Wish you luck in what you decide, but it sounds like your able to produce testosterone naturally. Correct me please
RustyhookerI'd go straight to endo 2 weeks post cycle with crashed test levels and get pharmacy grade Trt done correctly. Life choice here. Get it done right. Prescription is the way to go
PallMallIf i were you i would go see an endocronologist before you take the leap...
Talk to him openly and honestly..and then go from there
