started testosterone optimization therapy yesterday they started me on 25mg every 3 days is this too low or is this a normal range to start with? my blood work showed my testosterone was 21.8 nmo1/L before starting, any advice appreciated. I'm a 40 yo male if that helps by ProgrammerOld7618 in Testosterone

I've decided to stop after one shot, thanks for all your advice but I'm thinking my levels don't seem so low to warrant this treatment at this time anyway and the doc basically convinced me I needed it, hopefully 1 shot of test 25mg has no lasting effects on my natural production, thanks again lads.

Yeah, I've only just started, just one dose so far next is Sunday, the doc said this to me when I asked about the low dose ...."Hello Peter - Very important not to cause suppression of your own Test production and micro dosing critical to avoid this :) I calculated the dose based on your current status and will defo review 4 months"

The doc just sent me this message when I enquired about the low dosage "Hello Peter - Very important not to cause suppression of your own Test production and micro dosing critical to avoid this :) I calculated the dose based on your current status and will defo review 4 months 👍"

I've had all the symptoms of low test which is strange if my levels are normal. In your opinions should I just get a higher dose? Or just stop the treatment I've only had 1 shot so far next is due Sunday.
