I'm 29 and on trt
I'm the past I was one of those kids that bought every supplement that said it made you big. Now at 29 my test levels were 550 so my doc put me on trt. When I was 27 had a friend talk me into a sus cycle. Of course nno pct like a idiot. But after researching gear and being on trt for about 7 months I ran a cycle of sus 350 at 1cc on Monday and one on Thursday. In 9 weeks only gaining 6 lbs. Training 6 days a week. In taking 180 to 170 grams of protein. Givin that I expect more gains. Are my gains low because of my receptors being use to synthetic test? Or maybe bad gear? Any advice from people with past experience

Yeah bro, I dunno lol. We’re all different, personally I need a higher baseline, but 550 is in no way the point to jab yourself for the next forever amount of years. Consult with another doctor.
Bullshit you went to a "men's health" clinic. Those are not doctors.
550 is what my levels are on trt. lol
I told my doctor that was too low, he asked me how high I wanted it I said 1100 he just laughed.
It sucks when you have raisins for nuts. But when your my age you thank God for science.
Haha it’s not like you’re gonna put your balls in your partner. At least is doesn’t shrink the shaft --.
HAHAHA LMFAOOOOO!!!!!
Wow the differenice in doctors opinions.
My endo always wants my levels above 800 but under 1000. She gives me an extra bottle of cyp every 3 months.
To the original poster, your doctor put you on Trt with a level of 550. He does not know what he is doing, get a new doctor. I'm sorry but that's my humble opinion
Well I have no reason to be the reason behind this post was because reading all the info on this site led me to thinking I was missing lead. Not to mention at 29 thinking of pining for the rest of my life sux. So doubt it if u want I got the info I needed. Thanks to those who gave it. Right after this post I called my doc who is a family care doc and requested my test results for pick up. And a opoimtment with a new doc is in 3 weeks. And according to the macro calculator 170 is what it suggested.
Mine were 347 at 25 and the first doc I saw didn't put me on trt...no way at 550
In my opinion, 170 g of protien isn't enough if your training almost every day. I take in about 400 grams a day when bulking. Your doctor is also an idiot. 550 is a good test level.
RustyhookerFirst off I'm scoffing...bs...bs..bs. 550 is NOT TRT. Post up your blood test. And your stats with REAL age.
Noone here is stupid. Be real. Grow real. Sounds a LOT like the kid from 3 weeks ago.
Be honest!
Real age is 29 no reason to bs. This is why I am on this site. The stuff I learn on here is info I can't get in any other open form so no need to waist people's time with bs. Stats are on point + or - 3 lbs depending on the day
RustyhookerAppreciate that. Pick the brains of the guys here and researching the site. You'll do well.

Nothing but respect bro. Rather some be straight with me than piss down my back and tell me it is raining.

300 or below for trt bud!
Many docs put it at under 200, and that's for someone that's 40+.
Depends if we're talking anti aging docs or regular primary care.
im sorry I think there is more to this story bro and I cant believe you were prescribed trt being under 30 usually they exhaust every other alternative before just signing you up for trt for the rest of your life, with that being said for them to over look all that and than prescribe you trt with levels that high which some would consider normal ranges is highly unlikely if you factor in all of the above. I also think your diet is also very far off, in order to gain weight you need to be eating more than maintenance eat to dirty you put on sloppy weight eat the right amount of clean food and your golden , I suggest learning how to count your macros and figuring out how much you need to gain , not just guessing or having someone spoon feed you.
Gotta atleast have a daily protein intake of 2 grams per lb of body weight..no wonder you cant gain weight, get on irongames diet plan and he will have u gaining in no time..and trt at 550? Idk bro.what dickhead doctor would put someone on trt when u test at normal levels? Get another doc before this one fucks you up bro
Great thanks guys. So looks like I definitely need to look into a different doc. My last test levels were at 900 he said that was as good as I could get. I thought that was high. But not being a doctor I didn't argue the point.
The problem is that now you're on TRT, you may never be able to go back to producing test naturally and will have to take shots the rest of your life. You had a normal level and I would personally do everything I could to drop your trt, run a re-boot PCT and see where you land. It's either that or pinning for the rest of your life. I think your doc really screwed you.
I wonder if you can sue the doctor or something? His test levels werent even low they were perfectly average and the doc put him on trt.
I'm leaning that this isn't the full story here and this may be self prescribed. That being said, there are idiot, incompetent doctors out there, so anything is possible.
Pursuing a legal remedy to this would be hard and would have to have definitive proof (bloods, expert testimony, future loss of fertility, etc.). Could be done, but you'd have to have the right attorney and they would have to feel it was financially worth it, because that's the only way it would progress.
X2..Fckn exactly bro
You're doc put you on trt with 550 test levels? That's perfectly normal. I checked mine off cycle a few months ago and mine were like 570 and I felt awesome. He really fucked you.
And then you're asking why you only gained 6lbs while only eating 170 grams of protein a day. It's obvious your diet is the problem. Probably training to much to at 6 days a week but that's just an assumption. Some people can do it others can't. More is not always better. You don't grow in the gym.
So what would be my best option to pct since I have been on trt for a wile now. Was thinking hcg with a aro. But my estrogen levels at last blood were 0 according to my doc.and the hcg running 700iu eod that sound correct?
How long have you been suppressed for? meaning taking exogenous hormones?
9 months now.
That is within a normal range. I have a hard time believing that a competent doctor would put you on TRT at your age, with those numbers....
Not the first time I have herd that.
