Guest guest Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 Yes wayback44 this is true and some do a lot I know of men posting at other forums Anti-Aging Clinics giving men 200 mgs / week to start. Any good Dr. would start one out lower say 100 mgs and work up from there. Them guys had thicker blood had to give blood to thin it out. Seen better Dr.'s and need to lower there dose. Problem is starting this high it's hard to come lower they feel like crap until there body adjusts to lower levels and this can take a long time.

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2010 Report Share Posted October 13, 2010 If this next Dr. is up on TRT you should be good to go but if not he might read Dr. 's paper on TRT: A Recipe for Success at www.allthingsmale.com.
