Trt Test C including DHEA
ad
My trt clinic switched pharmacies and the new test c 200mg I received has 10mg of DHEA per ml. Based on my research, 10mg per ml is not much, especially as weekly trt dosages. However, does anyone have feedback about dhea and how it interacts with other compounds? For example, if I use this test on a blast at around 300-350mg/wk, it'll increase my DHEA intake a small amount. Taking this amount of DHEA with other compounds like primo or masteron, etc, what kind of side affects would occur, if any.
I'll be reaching out to my trt clinic to see whats up, but wanted to also see if anyone has experience with dhea during trt and during cycle.

TricepatopsYou should have nothing to worry about. I mentioned before on here but after being on TRT for sometime your levels of DHEA and Pregnenolone lower and your levels can drop to nothing. I had to supplement with those two to get mine back to normal. DHEA is called a master hormone because it has influence on everyone. So after awhile on TRT you need HCG or supplements to bring levels to normal again. When your first on TRT you feel amazing but after being on it for awhile if you don't use HCG or the supplements you can get the brain fog tiredness and other symptoms . Those two hormones work on the Neuro part of your body. Might not even be real noticeable at first because it is gradual but I noticed when I went back to further my education.
Thanks for the heads up. I'm doing my research, but still new to dhea and learning. I'll aee how it works out for me, only way is to try it.
NoodlesSubQYou might be basing that off the normal oral routes, which have extremely low bioavalibility. When taken orally, you really only absorb about 3% of it. (source https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8943794/). When injected, you're a lot closer to 100%
With most people taking anywhere from 50-200mg of DHEA orally, translates into the equivalent of
50(0.03)=1.5mg
200(0.03)=6mg
I can't help you with interactions with other compounds, but I usually use a low dose of DHEA in my cycle to keep levels in normal level since AAS has a tendency to supress DHEA and DHEA-S. Best of luck!
Also, i've never heard of a formulation that included DHEA as an injectable form, are you outside the US?
TricepatopsThere are some form of DHEA in pills micronized that absorb quite well. I had a level of literally 0 and was taking 25 mgs - 50mgs by mouth and my levels after two weeks were over so I reduced to 25mgs everyday. On TRT though over time hi our levels of DHEA and Pregnenolone crashes so you need to use HCG or supplements to get those levels back to normal.
Thanks for the info. I'm in the US. My trt test c says the ingredients are test c 200mg, dhea 10mg, bb .25ml, ba .02ml, and .55ml of grapdeseed oil.
Injectable dhea is not a thing?
NoodlesSubQThanks for the thumbs up.
This is the first I’ve seen of pharmaceutical injectable DHEA, but there are a few research articles on it. I don’t think it’s out of the question and I don’t particularly see a problem occurring with it.
Only thing is that it will aromatise to E2, but your blast is also only 300mg. If you have a high BF% you’re more likely to have problems with estrogen. Kinda impossible to say whether or not you’ll run into problems, but just get blood work done after a few weeks and run from there, if there’s a problem then run an AI.
Past that you’re gonna need someone else’s help, I’m more on the biochem knowledge than the practical expierience side of things when it comes to AAS.
Good point, I do plan on getting lab work. I don't have high bf, but I do aromatize more than normal, found out through lab work too. Also found primo lowers my estro. Guess the only way to find out is to try and and get lab work.
By the way, you have biochem background of sorts?
NoodlesSubQLab work is key!
I do have a background in biochem, specializing in psychopharmacology. My knowledge on that is greater than my endocrinology knowledge but endo's been an obsession of mine for a little while now.
Im making myself sound smart but i'm really not compared to some people on this fourm. Practical knowledge that comes from people that have been using AAS for 10 years likely trumps whatever "should" happen, whether or not the reasoning behind it is correct.
Do you have any bloodwork including SHBG, E2 and Total/free test on your 300mg/week cycle? I'd like to see if it matches up with mine once I get it.
