Re: Testosterone Cypionate Curve of Effectiveness??

April 27, 2010

Hi Gus and Welcome,

Your doing 1cc every 2 weeks this is dam old your levels will peak in 3 days and

fall to low by the 7th to 8th days now until you do your next shot on the 14th.

day your body is suffering. A 1cc shot is the same as a 1ml shot and if your

Test C is 200mgs/ml or cc they your doing 200 mgs every 2 weeks. You would do

much better doing 100 mgs every week. Even in the AACE Guidelines on page 11

they say to do shots every 7 to 10 days.

http://www.aace.com/pub/pdf/guidelines/hypogonadism.pdf

Dr. says to add in some HCG 250 IU's on the 5th and 6th days each before

your Test C shot on the 7th. days doing this keeps your levels up until you do

your T shot. Doing shots every 2 weeks puts one on a roller coaster ride up

after the shot only to fall to low by the next one. I can't say how your levels

got this high unless you did them a short time after your last shot. Most men

do labs on the day of there next shot did you do this. And that number must be

for Total T Free T numbers are not that high.

Go to Dr. 's site and Read TRT: A Recipe for Success and his HCG Update.

I would go with 1/2cc every week. The peak is 48-72 hours and from what I have

seen the half life is about a week. By day 14 you are probably lower then when

you started because of HPTA shutdown. My first doctor wanted to do the 2 week

thing and I complained of being tired. He retested after 12 days and my Test.

was in the 200's.

BTW, your Test lab is probably total Testosterone. How many days after an

injection was the blood drawn?

Subject: Testosterone Cypionate Curve of Effectiveness??

Hey all. Up until today I have been an on-looker to the posts here. I

appreciate the questions and responses you all have given.

I'm a 50 yr old male. About 10 weeks ago I was diagnosed with Low T (236) and

have been on injections of Testosterone Cypionate, 1 CC every other week since,

given by myself at home. My T level at the last check two weeks ago was 796. I

presume the measurement is for free T, but I don't have the lab results to

verify at the moment. The bottom line for me is a drastic improvement in my

overall well being and libido.

Has anyone seen a curve of what Testosterone levels would be over time? I

imagine 24 to 48 hours after the shot my T levels peak, and then wane down after

14 days. Then the new shot would boost levels again - is how it would seem to

me.

What if I received 1/2 the amount weekly verses the full amount every two weeks?

Would that be better for decreasing highs and lows in my treatment?

My last test was midpoint between shots, day 7 1/2 after my last shot.

That is a pretty good level for that many days. Day 10 on is probably pretty
