+ 1 Seeking some quick advice on HRT and cycle programming?
Hi guys, I've searched and can't find anything more specific so I would like to ask here.
I am 35, 190 lbs, 8% body fat, good diet, lift heavy 3-4 times a week, CrossFit occasionally, and recently added MMA into the mix. A couple months ago, I was telling a friend about some symptoms that he said could be low T. Turned out that's what is was. Test results came in at around 350. Went to the doc, and he put me on 1 cc of test 250 per week. I didn't like the slow progression so I asked him to bump it up. Last T count was 1650. I am feeling better much better. Here is what I am doing now:
•2 cc's total Test 250 per week, pinned Wed. and Sunday
•12.5 mg Aromasin every other day
•HCG on Wed.
No side effects other than light acne, and the gains have been good and steady. I am assuming that I will stay on the test for life?
Is there anything else I could be/should be doing, and can I bump up the test for some bigger gains? I tried adding Equipoise, but I was allergic to it and had coughing problems.
Thank you for taking the time to read, and I look forward to learning more so that I can pass on the information.

I had my Doc add in some Nandrolone decanoate....AKA "Deca" and that helped me BIG time 350-400mg once a week is a good base.
Right on, thank you.
Awesome man, thank you for the input. I had a feeling I was on the right track, and I'll check into the Aromasin dosage. Those little f*ckers are hard to cut up though!
There's articles on cutting pills as well!!!
Mine come in capsules, so I just pour out what I need.
Thanks for the quick reply vhman and no worries on the questions! I'll have to check the estro levels, but I recall them being low. It is Test-C, but I also have some Test-E I may switch over to, and I have been bumped up for about 2 months.
Goal wise, I want to keep increasing performance/strength for MMA, increased weight lifting capacity and strength for life in general, but not looking to beef up like a bodybuilder of a huge dude. Obviously I dig the aesthetics. (And the ladies don't hate it either). 200-205 for weight would be excellent, and I realize that I would have to eat more. I currently get 200+ grams of protein per day, but I don't count the calories.
I'm also on TRT and I'm on a similar dose. Test-C & E are basically the same, so you're fine with either. Your aromasin dose may be a little much for what you're on, but it's hard to tell without blood tests. I take 6.25 ed or eod, depending on how I feel and my latest tests. You may want to search an article on low and high estro here in the forum (great read and info).
My advice would be to stick to what you're on for a while more. Adding other substances can complicate things and makes it difficult to know what substance is causing problems when/if side-effects arise.
I really think that you can accomplish everything you have stated above on what you're on right now, IF you are patient, research a solid diet plan (here on eroids or elsewhere), and continue working out.
There are times when I've wanted to up my dose and really blast, but I've resisted and I'm glad I did. I feel that my gains are here to stay, because I was patient and really locked down my diet & workout (sleep as well). That said, there really isn't anything wrong with trying something new or upping your dose (blasting) for a while, if it's done properly. Best of luck!!!
Welcome. Use your search function and you can find an answer to just about any question you have.
You said you're on Test 250, is that Test-C or Test-E? How long have you been on HRT and when did you bump up to 500 mg? Also, what was your estro levels at your last blood test?
Also, what are your goals?
Lots of questions, but the more people know, the more accurate/better information you will receive.
