Was curious if anyone has this condition. Dr took me off my TRT, said it might be one of a few different reasons. To much iron. Took me off red meat, oysters and such. my treatment is only .50ml cyp 200. is this pretty common? I do therapeutic phlebotomies every 4 months. like a half litre I think. But yea. would like to hear other experience.

Yeah, back in 2022 I tried bi weekly TRT (no increase in total mg's per week), seemed to drive my hematocrits, hemoglobin and RBC into a concerning level for my PCP and Endo. Took a couple weeks off of TRT and the blood tests returned to normal (high normal) but still normal.
