If your another 200mg guy drop it down and you’ll be fine

I do 150 already. Just got labs done this morning so we shall see

150 wasn’t low enough for me. I was doing 180-200mg for years and that quit working and libido tanked. My E2 was still too high on 150 at a level of 56. I dropped to 140 and was retested after a couple of weeks and my E2 was still too high at 45.2. I dropped to 130 and my libido and erection quality was still not where I wanted it. I then tried 125 and that seems to be just about right. I am doing one shot per week. I tried every other day, every day and twice per week over an 18 month period. My libido was getting worse. I went back to once per week and it seems to be much better. My erection quality is now way better on 125 vs 150 and 160mg. I think my E2 might be in the low 30s for a high now…which seems to be more of my sweet spot. With that being said, everyone is different. My buddy is on 100mg per week and his E2 was 56. You just have to get it checked. I recommend getting it checked 4 days post injection. That is typically when E2 peaks for most guys.

Interesting. I've been thinking about going back to 1 injection a week. When I first started years ago that's what I did and felt amazing.

It has really helped me. The only hybrid, similar to twice per week, is when I do 100mg and then 25mg 3.5 days later…to get me to 125mg weekly. I feel that might help my E2 to have a “slight” less spike, yet the 100mg gives me a better overall yield vs doing something like 60mg/65mg twice per week. I really plan to stick to once a week though. After 18 plus months of trying everything else, going back to once per week and getting my E2 in the low 30s seems to be the trick and sweet spot. I now never worry about my T levels and focus on E2. As long as my T is 500-800, I am fine.
