So I’ve been on TRT for almost a year now. I attempted a cycle a few months ago (only got a few weeks into it) but had to abandon it because of a viral infection causing extreme vertigo.
So this go round, I had Test C 300 from Geneza Pharm. I stated out at 300mg for the first 4 wks then increased to 450mg/wk, splitting injections into 3 equal doses given on M/W/F and did Aromasin 12.5 mg T/R/S. (I was not faithful on Saturday dosing, often forgetting. I know I forgot the week of the blood draw) I only rand the cycle for 7wks because I just wanted to dip my toes in and see how it went.
I go my blood work back a few days ago.
Total Test: 2683
E2: 80
My FSH and LH were low as expected on cycle. Everything else was normal.
So, I now know I need to up my AI when I try this again. I didn’t have any estrogen side effect that I could tell. I’m sure I’m holding too much water, but no gyno or anything else that I can tell.
Next cycle will be in a few months and I plan on running EQ so I don’t think I’ll need a AI for that cycle.
