Trt questions

Would dosing trt twice a week be better? Arimidex has a halflife of about 50 hours, so wouldn't dosing it 2-3 times a week be better? I'm just basically wondering what the "perfect" protocol would be in order to keep levels stable. Thanks

I personally enjoy using letrozole or atomised once a day in the am

But wouldn't administering it at lower doses more frequently be better since it would keep the levels more steady?

What are you asking to dose, your test or adex?

Im just wondering who's had better success with dosing trt twice a week as opposed to once. Also, I was reading through another thread and noticed a lot of peoples protocols were dosing arimidex once weekly; is there a reason for this? Wouldn't dosing it 2-3 times a week be optimal

Dosing Test twice a week might make it so you don't need the AI.

I just switched TRT docs and the new one tested my SHBG levels. He based my dosing schedule on SHBG levels. In normal range, they do 2x/wk for guys with low SHBG like me, we do 3x/wk because the rest of the test runs free and burns off too fast with low SHBG. He also lowered my anastrozole from 0.5 EOD to 0.125 EOD. He said the lower more frequent doses will control e2 better. My previous doc had me on every other week shots.

I haven't started the protocol yet, but figured I'd share the doctor's recommendation and reasoning anyway.

Yes, 2x week protocol can help levels remain more stable with lower peaks, but it will also stay lower overall. This helps keep sides at bay and can help you feel better overall. I've done 1x week, switched to 2x week for years, and am back on 1x week. I like to run higher and stay higher while staying in physiological limits. Better for physical attributes, memory, and energy. However, I am also not prone to sides. Gotta watch e2, BP, hematocrit more when going 1x week due to higher peak and cruise.
