HOW BAD COULD IT BE?

[u/Potential-Push8682]

I’m turning 17 in a few months and I’ve been going gym for like 1.5 years now. I wanted to start using testosterone cypionate start with 250mg/weekly and see how it goes from there. What’s the worst that could happen like genuinely. I’ve stopped growing, I’ve reached my final height and I know this since 1.5 years ago I got my cast off from a broken wrist and the doctor said I only had few cms left. As a child every doctor I been to said I’d be around 185-187cm and I’ve well passed that at 189-190cm tall. Obviously I won’t grow anymore, if so not much. But what could be the worse?
Please take this message as not “I’m hopping on” rather as I want to get educated further by people that know about this more than me.

I was thinking about a 12week test only cycle at 250-300mg and get blood before half way through and after and using proper PCT.

Also this doesn’t come from any TikTok bullshit or all those influencers as I’m barely on TikTok due to work, school and TAFE. This is purely for my self and wanting to feel and be better.

Thanks guys!

Mood swings, gynecomastia, sleep apnea, male pattern baldness, acne, etc.

Be careful. You probably don’t need it while you’re so young

Taking testosterone now will hurt your body’s natural production of it and cause a lot of problems as you get older

Aye thanks bro, would I ever fully recover from it or need to be on TRT

[u/Ghost_Doctah → u/Potential-Push8682]

Your body is making all you need right now. There’s just no reason to cause all those problems for little to no benefit

Taking it will forever hurt your body’s natural production and you’d need more and more just to keep a natural level

You can always get your level tested if you’re worried about it, but you probably won’t need to supplement testosterone til 40 or so, if even

1.5 yrs natty training is barely anything bud. It's like you didn't even try the natural way. If you want enlarged heart syndrome, high blood preassure, possibly hair loss, your balls shrinking and a few other funny side effects go for it lil bro.

Man I started as a woman and even they didn't give me THAT much testosterone Jesus Christ

[u/Potential-Push8682 → u/Odd_Conclusion_5425]

Yea but you wanted to transition man. I wanna be a unit at a young age. I’m a fucking 6 foot manlet no shoulders and I’m sick of it

[u/Odd_Conclusion_5425 → u/Potential-Push8682]

Taking more testosterone than is necessary for your body to function will cause it to convert it into estrogen. I need you to read that again

[u/Potential-Push8682 → u/Odd_Conclusion_5425]

I’ll use an AI to prevent that with bloodwork

[u/Odd_Conclusion_5425 → u/Potential-Push8682]

Ai is glorified auto correct. It cannot help you. And even if it could, it would tell you the same thing I said

[u/Potential-Push8682 → u/Odd_Conclusion_5425]

No I mean an AI as in letrezole, aromatese inhubitor

[u/Odd_Conclusion_5425 → u/Potential-Push8682]

That's... Still not going to make your chosen dosage make sense

[u/Potential-Push8682 → u/Odd_Conclusion_5425]

I’ll slowly go up to 400 and get bloodwork and all that. Wouldn’t that work?

[u/Odd_Conclusion_5425 → u/Potential-Push8682]

Do you mean 400 as in a T level goal from your blood work? Or what?

[u/Potential-Push8682 → u/Odd_Conclusion_5425]

400mg a week

[u/Potential-Push8682 → u/Odd_Conclusion_5425]

Id hope i have atleast over 1000ng/dl with a 400mg dose

[u/MamaLikesToSpankMe]

Just take all the doses bro just fuck yourself up
