Question on TRT

ueberich · 2025-12-01T08:09:45-0500

Hi,
I am 51 years old, training 3 times a week wrestling and lifting weights 1 or 2 times a week.

I am on TRT not to build up muscles (that's only a nice side effect), but to improve my attitude to life, my regeneration and my libido.

I used to do 100mg Testo Enantat every 5 days and felt fine with it.
My doc wants to convince me to do 100 mg every 7 days.
His reasons are:

(1) "Your lab works showing that is not TRT but doping."
(2) "You are shutting down your own Testosterone production."

I thought (2) TRT always means to shut down my own production and use extern Testosterone instead.

I attach my own blood profile – I am feeling well using 100 mg every 5 days...

Is this one where you started it yourself and told the doc vs the doc putting you on it?

welcome bro
51 is a good age for self TRT
@ueberich
hard to say, are you getting your log up for TRT first? we need it
15min start your log before

HOW-TO LOG?

Why is a Log Journal important?

Doing a log will actually help you way more than just dropping random updates. When you lay it all out week by week you start to see patterns in your body that you won’t catch otherwise.
Other guys here run logs all the time and there’s no privacy issue, nobody is asking for your name or anything personal, it is just training, diet, and how the compound feels.
The feedback you get is also way better because people can follow along and spot things you might miss. It also helps the next guy who is thinking about running the same compound so you are giving back while you learn.
Even if you think you might not stick with it, just starting the log makes it easier to come back and add quick notes. That way you get more out of what you are running instead of keeping it all in your head.

To really guide you we need more info from you.

Please share your diet, training, cardio, sleep, supplements etc log with us in a NEW thread, full log journal so our guidance is based on facts you provide.
It will take 15-20 minutes max.
We have 100s of years of experience between us, so you need to post a LOG Journal with your stats (weight,height,age, years training, cycle history) diet, training, cardio, supplement, sleep details. If you don't log what you eat or train now, open NOTES on phone and start recording it there and paste here. Very easy.
Please post a Log Journal asap for us

based on the bloods the doc is right that you are on too high a dose. the objective of trt is to take what you would normally and naturally produce.
