Some background to provide the foundation for my question.
I have been on TRT for quite a while now. I am taking cypionate. My prescribed dosage is 200mg every two weeks. I split that up into 4 injections. Prior to my last bloodwork (2/06/14) I was doing a little upping of my dosage and was taking 140mg per week as opposed to the prescribed 100mg. Two weeks prior to my blood work I went back to my prescribed dosage. My results were a bit elevated but the doc felt that it was as a result of having given myself an injection the day before the labs were drawn and so he decided not to change anything at this time (fortunate for me). Here are my results as of 2/06/14:
Total Test 1286 (they work on a baseline scale of 250-1100)
Free Test 339.5 (base 35-155)
Estradiol 35 (I was a bit high the labs before so I am now on Anastrozole. I take .25mg 24 hours after each injection and this protocol seems to be working nicely for me so far)
After I received this lab work I did not go back on the prescribed dosage but did not go as high as before either. I am currently using 120mg per week as opposed to the 140mg before. I have been doing this since mid-February.
I have decided I want to blast and cruise on a regular basis. My thoughts on this are:
- I want to get as much results as I can from as little as possible so that I have somewhere to go as my blasts progress. Since I've done fairly well on less than 150mg per week, my thought is to go to between 200mg-300mg per week for 10 weeks and then come back to the prescribed cruise (100mg per week) for a determined amount of time (not sure how long that should be) before I blast again. How does this sound?
- Do I maintain my current Anastrozole regimen or does that need to change with the upping of the dose? I think my levels were between 50-60 when I was originally prescribed it.
- Also, I feel like I need to be on my cruise dosing for at least a month before my bloodwork so that I am in range. I don't want to take the chance of having the doc pull the scrip. Thoughts on this?
- Lastly, I am 5'8" and currently weigh around 203. My BF% is more than it should be but not terrible (not sure what it is).
Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated.
