Trt and building muscle.

Trt doc started me on 200 mg test cyp per week plus 25iu hcg every other day and ai. Is it possible to build any decent muscle at this dose? I've read a lot that 200 mg a week just shuts down natural production and leaves u at about the same as if you weren't on anything ? Just curious if anyone on this dosage had their t levels tested and what they came back at? Thanks.
 
He should be doing blood work to tell you what your levels are. Everyone reacts differently to the doses. My dr has me at 160mg per week and my levels stay around 850 which means that in the middle of the week I peak over 1000 which will help build muscle.
 
200/week isn't trt, it's a mini cycle. While there are differences in effective dose between individuals, very few need that much. And if he put you in that dose w/o any labs, I'd run far and fast. I'm on 60 every 3.5 days and my peaks are ~900 and troughs ~650. That's my sweet spot. 200 would put me >1500, and I felt like shyt at that dose.

To answer your question, you'll have no problem at all making gains. If you do you need to look at how you're training. Get labs done ASAP, as you're more than likely going to need an ai at that dose.

EDIT: saw that you're on an ai now.

Good luck...
 
To answer the above yes I am low and am having labs done for monitoring. Will update to let u know what they come back at. I have a naturally decent metabolism so not sure how much it will burn off the dosage in my system?
