Curious how does 150mg test e compare to natural levels?

[GrassFed]

I went from 500 to 150, second week now just giving my hair follicles a break for 8 weeks or so

I'm wondering what to expect.

Maybe slightly above natural levels? HRT can range anywhere between 250 EOW to 250 E3W.

My trt dose from doc is 200mg every week

Damn, that's higher than I have heard before. How does your blood work look? That's really all that matters in the end. It must be on the high end of normal though.

It depends on the individual. 150 for most would be on the higher end of trt. 200 would put me way out of natural physiological range. Some guys would come back in normal range at 200. 150=trt imo

Not looking to debate this, just throwing it out there . . . . there is a school of thought about the "7 times" rule, i.e. 100mg/wk will yield around 700 on your bloodwork, 200/wk = apprx. 1400, and so on. Obvious differences from one individual to the next, and also on the timing of your last inj vs. when blood was drawn. Even with Test E or Cyp, there are fluctuations within a week . . . .

Thoughts?

Pretty close to my blood work raw deal.

100mg wk was 800ish while 200mg wk was as high as 1800 and as low as 1200 depending on how close to injection day.

Good info from the others. Average trt dose is from about 100mg every other week up to 300mg weekly. My trt was 200mg cyp for 3 yrs then I told my dr I wanted higher and without a blink I spent the next yr of trt at 300mg weekly. So 150mg week should put the average male in the mid to high range of normal. But again there are so many things that differ and can effect this. I think that amount though is safe and adequate based on what you first posted for your scenario to keep you in the 800 to 1200 range. Only blood work will tell the truth though.

My TRT is 150mg of Test Cyp per week. This puts me on the very top of the "normal" range. I like to bump it to 750ml from time to time to get my test up in the 5000's! No PCT after, just back to the TRT dose. The gains stay that way.

It will vary dramatically from person to person.

160/ wk divided into 2 doses puts me at 600 with labs done 3 days after an injection (180/wk puts me near 1000). However, for some reason I have a very low SHBG level, so my free test runs over 400. Works for me.

Without labs, you are just guessing.

The normal range of the total testosterone levels is 250-1100 (for my age range). On 125mg/week, my level was 820. On 250mg/week, it was 1238.

When I go back down to hrt levels of 200 I don't feel anything. It's like Im not on at all. No severe negative sides just a lil fatigue but it really shows at the gym. I usually only drop down for a few weeks to a month for a rest then go back to 500 ew
The average hrt dose I've seen is 200 ew. tbh if you're going to run 150 why not just come off for a full recovery and start over if you want? IMO it seems like more negatives than positives to run 150 depending on how long you plan to stay there.
