So a while back i had a few threads discussing my early TRT experiences. My doctor has me on a 300mg weekly regimen. Many people insisted my test would be skyrocketed, supra-physiological levels if i remember some of the phrasing. Had my first bloods review a few weeks ago and i got my email recently.
In the first week when my doc got my E2 first he called me to get my on an AI as my E2 was high at 146, he put me on 1mg of arimidex, taken when i do my T injections. So the magic number everybody was looking for, my total T was 903, well within the limit the clinic has listed for normal range of 250-1100.
At one point i had discussed here some information i had read, explaining that different people metabolize hormones at different rates. Somebody here even mentioned they have taken 300mg/week and had normal levels if i remember.
My hematocrit was also just slightly out of the 38.5-50% range, i had 51%. I felt great the first month or so and then it seemed to wane slightly, and i asked about this. The reason? The eventual overconversion of E2 and i could tell with more bloating than i had prior. I've been on arimidex now for about 2 weeks and i feel better, less bloating and i feel like the T is working at full capacity again.
I feel great, my numbers look good, and im not on some cruise dose with a 1500-2000 test level. Feel free to ask questions or discuss what you want, perhaps this information will help others with TRT dosing questions.
