What's up everyone? I have recently gone to the doctor for low test levels. Results came back on the "low end of normal". It has been as low as 174ish and last reading was low 300s. But since it is in the "normal" range my insurance won't pay for TRT. So I'm saying ok I'll do it myself. I'm planning on running 250mg of test Cyp every 3 days. Would 12.5mg of aromasin every other day be ok or should I do 25mg? I'm also debating on running a small dosage of anavar since I'm going to get some for my wife. Would that change what I should take? Thanks for any help.
That's way more than a TRT dose.

Lol, 250 every 3 days is around 585/week ... that's no TRT, that's no cruise, that's a cycle and it's not a low dose cycle .. I've ran 3 cycles and never got to 585 .. TRT is generally at 150/week .. so get your facts right .. cruising is generally at 200-250 .. so get your facts right again ...
As Mobster alluded to, you are proposing a weekly dose that far exceeds a TRT dose. A TRT dose is approximately 200mg per week. Too, assuming that you are going to be in need of TRT for the balance of your days, you would not be in need of aromasin as it relates to TRT.
As for the possible use of anavar, I think that you need to decide on whether you are going to begin self-administered TRT or whether you are going to begin cycling anabolic steroids. There exists an enormous difference between the two.
I know its more than a TRT dose. Endocrinologist said it would have been 250mg test Cyp a week if it was approved but it wasn't so I figured go hard or go home right? I'm here for help and advice from peers and people with more knowledge than me. I want to be in better shape, stronger and have a higher sex drive. I'm not trying to compete. I workout 5 times a week. Diet isn't perfect but I've lost 24 lbs since Thanksgiving. Just looking for a good boost to help out wether it's TRT or Cycling.
What I would like to know is how did you come up with the idea of possibly having low test levels?
Did you have any symptoms of low t or just checked them out of curiosity?
I'm not trying to preach here or anything like that but some men will function just fine even with lower t levels.
What I usually first tell people to do is to fix everything else (diet, lifestyle etc) that could be affecting to their levels rather than just immediately getting a prescription for it.
According to what you said there have was a clear increase in your levels between those blood works which is a positive sign in the sense that your own production is not completely dead so there's hope...
But at the end of the day it's your own decision and you are free to do what you think is the best for you.

overdosing on test does more harm than good
i feel that you are upset about your test dosages, and depending on your age it is a decision you should really think about. if you have been in poor shape already then fixing your lifestyle can have a dramatic effect on test levels.. also those symptoms you have do not necessarily have anything to do with low test levels, that is super common complaints from guys as they age.
and yes we all want to feel 18 again and be strong and in better shape. YOU have to fix that, no drug on earth can do it for you and no amount of money paid to a dr can fix it.
i would love to work with you 1 on 1 to fix everything and get you on track, hit me up for a consult
thats not even remotely close to a trt dose ! the max you should ever go on trt is 200 mg week and thats even questionable...

Agreed...when I was on doctor prescribed TRT we started at 125mg/week and ended at 175mg/week.

Yeah. My doc has me at 100.
At 175 I do feel incredible. After a cycle I’ll sit at 175 for a bit, then cruise at 100.
I’m trying something, what do you think? 1-2 months before I boost, what if I dropped to 25-50 mg? 0r even go off.
My thoughts are while yes, I’ll lose a bit of muscle. My receptors will up-regulate to make use of what little test is available, should be enough for basic health/function. Then when I boost, due to sensitivity I would get even better results off say 250 test (now being 5x what I’m used to) and say 600 eq..
Keep in mind, just something I’m thinking about, researching and collections knowledgeable opinions on.
Dave Palumbo swears by it.

Has up-regulation of receptors been established as a fact? I've always wondered this...and wondered if it's bro science or real science. Sorry for answering your question with a question of my own...LOL.

No, to the best of my knowledge this is definitely bro science. And no worries. I am still researching and looking for input. Probably going to test it in myself. Tho considering that’s one test subject and no control group.. it’ll still be bro science.
That being said, I do know of a few guys implementing this. One says it’s totally worth it, the other says while you do get a better response, the 8 weeks of dead dick aren’t worth it. (I have a tongue, 5 fingers and an understanding wife should mr happy die.)
