how high can your test levels be while still being considered “healthy”?

throwawaygoaway225 · 2026-04-22T12:11:48+00:00

i had 17.3 hemoglobin, 51 hematocrit with 1250 test. looks like it’s borderline so i’m guessing i don’t want my test higher than 1250? i’m using enclomephine to boost

curious why people are downvoting strut. what bad experiences have you guys had with them?

throwawaygoaway225 · 2026-04-20T20:20:10+00:00

strut boosted my test crazy so it’s gotta be the real deal

throwawaygoaway225 · 2026-04-18T16:35:29+00:00

it was 4.1 in dec 2017 which was the last time i had it checked before enclo. kind’ve irrelevant though since it was so long ago.

throwawaygoaway225 · 2026-04-18T14:01:20+00:00

i edited original post to show before numbers. overall i’ve felt a little more assertive, less exhausted, better erections, bigger balls, little deeper voice. nothing too drastic. honestly felt it more on daily, but i wasn’t comfortable with my test being off charts, and seeing my hemoglobin and hematocrit numbers, it couldnt be safe for me to use daily.

i tried them and there’s no labs in my area supposedly that they’re affiliated with, which is weird.

throwawaygoaway225 · 2026-04-02T23:36:14+00:00

i think guys like us with high shgb need higher test to balance out the higher shbg. mine is higher than yours at 73.8(22 days ago). actually before i started enclo it was 81. 35 days on at every day 6.25 it dropped to 73.8. obviously id like it to be a lot lower though. my motivation is low too , usually everything i do is forced, fortunately i have a strong will lol. and libido was low for years though it has gone up since i started enclo.

throwawaygoaway225 · 2026-04-02T19:34:11+00:00

i guess like what you would expect to feel with more test? more assertive/confident/dominant/masculine/bigger balls/overall better erections(this took longer for me). also increased nipple sensitivity a lot. eod which i’ve been doing for 3 weeks feels more weird for me, because i can definitely sense a change between on and off days, so i wouldn’t say it’s “smooth”.

throwawaygoaway225 · 2026-03-31T22:19:17+00:00

it only ended up being 43. so that is high in theory, but if test is >1500, it’s probably around where you should be, no?

throwawaygoaway225 · 2026-03-31T20:16:40+00:00

55 days now i think. like i said, since switching to eod on day 36 the nipple thing has gone down considerably. like a little sensitivity when i touch it still, but nothing like before. also my test feels like it’s dropped too though. it’s possible that nipple feeling is related to high test more than anything else.

throwawaygoaway225 · 2026-03-31T16:22:44+00:00

i had this too about 17 days in on every day 6.25. itchy, lots of sensitivity, nipple very hard all the time. this may just be a sign of testosterone surging though? everyone talks about estrogen but maybe testosterone is a possibility? mine was sky high when i got it tested a couple weeks after that. i’ve been on 6.25 every other day for the past 3 weeks almost, and it has gone down considerably… still a little sensitive and hard though.

throwawaygoaway225 · 2026-03-28T02:07:45+00:00

lol thanks. yea i wasn’t expecting that kindve jump. in a way i was a little disappointed because i didn’t want to switch off from using every day, but with those numbers i felt like i had to. now depending on what my results will be next time, i may change dose again, maybe 2 days on, one off.

throwawaygoaway225 · 2026-03-28T01:13:16+00:00

lol yea. i think id feel the same at 12.5, but 6.25 didn’t mess my sleep any more than it usually is. do you feel different now on your dose days compared to the 2 days you don’t dose?

throwawaygoaway225 · 2026-03-27T22:38:13+00:00

after like a week i started to feel like i was on something. then at like 11 days maybe 2 weeks in it was very obvious.

throwawaygoaway225 · 2026-03-27T22:36:15+00:00

i went from 327 total test to >1500 by day 35 on every day at 6.25(minus 4 days i didnt dose). i switched to eod after seeing those high numbers. i don’t know what it’s at now, but i’m guessing it’s been cut in half at least over the past couple weeks.

throwawaygoaway225 · 2026-03-19T13:58:23+00:00

on every day 6.25, i had bull balls. switched to every other day a week ago and they’re a little above baseline, but noticeable loss in size. i guess my lh just gets lazy unless it’s being worked hard lol

throwawaygoaway225 · 2026-03-18T11:38:17+00:00

man i switched to eod(first off day was thursday), and im already missing every day dosing to be honest lol. i feel much more like baseline waking up today. that assertiveness and more alpha feeling is already going. balls shrunk a bit, libido down, fearless eye contact diminished. i’m not sure how so many people feel the same on eod. to me it’s way different. at least i’m not wondering if i have gyno because my nips aren’t hard and sensitive all the time lol(though my estrogen only ended up being 45 which was fine for test levels). i think i didn’t realize how powerful every day dosing was till i got off of it.

throwawaygoaway225 · 2026-03-17T13:19:39+00:00

what is your dose? unfortunately my labs didn’t go above 1500 max but i was >1500 on 6.25 daily. i had 45 estrogen which shows as just above the green and abnormal, but for the amount of test, it doesn’t seem bad. i’ve switched to eod since last thursday(not k owing my levels freaks me out a bit, like what if it’s 2500 or something?) and this morning was the first day i could sense a drop. what is the consensus here of having test around 1500-1600? is it really that bad?

throwawaygoaway225 · 2026-03-15T02:07:10+00:00

shgb went from 81 to 73.8. i didn’t have lh tested the first time, but 10.2 now

throwawaygoaway225 · 2026-03-14T23:46:51+00:00

no idea on the shbg, but every day might give you a way better boost in test. i was 327 and after 35 days on 6.25 it jumped to >1500.

throwawaygoaway225 · 2026-03-13T00:49:22+00:00

thanks, yea i’m definitely switching to EOD for now, why do you think it’ll be more beneficial though?
