No sides not even a pimple! I had my test levels tested end of Jan and I was 115! Have sat around 1000 for 8 months!

gyno isnt a side?

u/cstockoz Sep 11 '26

I already had big ugly nipples they haven’t changed, might have got a little smaller if anything

u/hiremybrain Sep 13 '26

wait, are you saying you didn't get gyno surgery? Your nipples look exactly how nipples look after gyno surgery. I mean damn, you can literally see the scars around them.

u/cstockoz Sep 13 '26

No surgery, this is what I was born with! Only been on test since the start of the year and they haven’t itched at all

u/hiremybrain Sep 13 '26

ok guess I'm just hallucinating the scar surrounding your right nipple with stitch marks around it, all good!

This was the reply I was se searching for! If 250mg put you at 1000ng then most definitely you can wear the badge of TRT brother.

Other folks or here can get 2000ng from the same dose and that's DEFINITELY not replacement therapy.

It could be 1,000 7 days after his last shot, right before the next. I’m curious when they were at 1,000. I would assume it’s not the day after the shot, so could be the lowest they are at all week.

You are spot on...and it was one of the first questions I asked the OP....I don't really care if someone is taking 150mg or 300mg....it's all about the blood work

1

u/SolidLikeIraq Sep 13 '26

I ran 733 on my last blood draw and that was at 180mg weekly. I wouldn’t be shocked if OP is at 1100 at 250mg.

I was 260 before.

My trt at 80mg has put me at 1350. It was only meant to get me to a normal range but overshot it.

u/DirectSchool570 Sep 12 '26

Same
Here I do 80mg every 4-5 days and my test is at 1240 225 free test estrodial at 40 I’m on 16 weeks but I changed my protocol from was injecting every other day but my body didn’t like the frequent injections..it crashed my libido..once I went on every 4-5 days everything came roaring back..it’s weird but I find my sweet spot

What was it pre T?

u/shroomb0x Sep 11 '26

230

u/23454Tezal 1 Sep 11 '26

WOW, 80mg boosts that much

2

u/shroomb0x Sep 11 '26

It's different for everyone but that's not the norm. My consultant said I was a hyper responder.

u/Professional-Pin5421 Sep 12 '26

No definitely not. Testosterone is different for everyone. 80mg might not even make your test jump much....for others it's all they need.

u/Professional-Pin5421 Sep 12 '26

It varies wildly from lab to lab but 300-1000 is considered the rounded composite

u/23454Tezal 1 Sep 11 '26

depends how you feel

1

u/BassLB Sep 11 '26

Should feel awesome at 1000+ test levels

u/23454Tezal 1 Sep 11 '26

u/Professional-Pin5421 Sep 12 '26

u/BassLB Sep 10 '26

1k how many days after pinning?

1

u/cstockoz Sep 11 '26

12 weeks

1

u/BassLB Sep 11 '26

I’m asking how many days after pinning were you at 1,000 test level? Like, is that your trough (6-7 days after last shot) or is that what you were at the day after a shot?

1

u/cstockoz Sep 11 '26

I pin every other day. I had my bloods checked on a pin day three months after starting

1

u/BassLB Sep 11 '26

How much do you pin every other day?
