TRT and microdosing

[Wilson6]

Years ago I had read a study where monkeys were administered testosterone, in the form of TNE, baked into cookies. They were given a cookie each morning. It proved to be an effective treatment ( I was expecting a complete failure as I always was under the impression that the TNE would be broken down in the gut). I wish I could find the study to share it.

There have been a couple of studies where men were given oral TE, it will elevate circulating T but it takes quite a bit. IMO, why waste it.

It is true. I am older than even BMJ. I knew a guy over on a another board. His "TRT" was something wild like 500mg/wk, and all it did was just keep him in normal range.

The flip side is having a total T of 1200 - 1500 and feeling like 500 did when you're younger, but the docs think that's way too high even though aside from Hb/HCT there's no evidence that it's harmful to live there.

Great post.
I have considered this route many times just never did the research. This spells it out really well.
my normal is 200to 300 mg testC. I try to remember each weekend. That said I just took this past Saturday dose about an hour ago. So, my schedule really is a week to ten days and feel normal.
the 10 to 12 mg subQ daily sounds good to me too.
I also like the guy adding some primo to the mix had value.
we will see.

Emeric has a long thread (about 75 pages long) over at PM about 10mg test cyp ED, and how TRT levels at this dose provide excellent results. I think it affects total test, but more importantly free test in blood work.

I need to find the patience to read both this article and that long thread to better understand the "whys". But the "what" is pretty simple. I already pin GH daily with an insulin syringe. I suspect that after a month of this, I won't think too much about it.

I'm wondering if a daily application of a test base dermal would give similar results or if one key here is the daily injection of a long estered test (where C, E or U).

I’ve done and do the 10mg daily… good stuff honestly… seems a lot of guys like it

Give me an excuse to eat cookies every morning.. seriously though. If my current suppliers, outside every grocery store this time of year, had Test-cookies.. that'd be a game changer

I've been doing this since I decided to go UGL about nine or so years ago, but I use Prop. Fast forward to now, and I do two weeks of syringes at a time, but I also mix Mast P and Primo E with the Test. Has worked well enough, but I never used the longer esters on a schedule like twice a week or anything, so I don't know any different. One thing I've noticed is over the years I've had to increase my Test dose a few times. Always wondered if it was some kind of androgen resistance, increase in receptors, or what. Same result either way.. more Test.

My guess is you are metabolizing it faster. I ran into the same thing.
