Guys, I know a hell of a lot about TRT and have been on it for decades. I also have been through a few doctors who meant well but had no real clue what they were doing so I have had to teach myself and learn quickly. I just got a new doctor who is doing my TRT and is very open minded. However, I still know way more than she does, but she can write scripts for everything I need. Now what I discovered IS very informative and helpful in tweaking my hormone optimization is CHATGPT.
You can actually copy and paste your blood work, you current hormone optimization plan and it will evaluate, explain and make informed suggestions about a dosing schedule to tweak any issues. I have had to double check numbers to make sure their math is correct and make changes that I thought would work better. I also input the drugs I am using. A few months back I had my hormones optimized but was having problem getting testosterone undecanoate. So my doctor switched me to Testosterone cypionate. I have done this previously with some success do I started out LOW and will now tweak it to get things aligned. So I started out with 80mg of TC split into 3 doses, 50mg of drostanalone enanthate split into two doses, 500mc of HCG split into 2 doses, HGH 5 days a week @1.5iu and 0.25mg of anastrozole the day after my TC injection. It worked out pretty well after my lab work came in this morning. However, my SHBG was on the high end of normal and total test at 667, my TESTOSTERONE,BIOAVAILABLE was 1 point on the low side. Free test was a lowish normal.
ChstGPt explains, my higher normal SHBG is most likely binding most of your circulating testosterone. The drostanalone enanthate should stop that from happening and lower SHBG but the dose is probably not high enough. So I go up from 50mg/wk to 100mg/wk...VERY sound advice. It also suggested that I drop the anastrozole from 0.50mg/wk to 0.25/k or even eliminate it all together. I will go on the side of caution and drop to 0.25mg/wk and see what happens in 3 months. Chatgpt also suggest that I go up slightly on the TC and I suggested 100mg/wk and they said that was very reasonable but should be broken down to 4 times a week instead of 3 times a week. They also suggested that I drop the HGC from 250iu twice a wk to once a week which I find reasonable. The higher dose drostanalone enanthate should helps lower SHBG and mildly enhances androgenic tone without aromatization. What drostanalone is good for is exerting local anti-estrogenic activity by: 1) Reducing aromatase expression in some tissues, 2) Acting as weak antagonists at estrogen receptors. This will also make AIs more effective and you will not need near as much. Right now my HCT is 50.7 and my E2 at 41 Reference Range: < OR = 39 pg/mL. My HCT is usually from 50-52 but I will have to careful watch the E2 to make sure it does not drop too quickly.
Honestly, I feel very sorry for any medical doctor that decides to get into hormone optimization. I also feel sorry for you guys trying to find a doctor to do this. Just prescribing medication is only part of the battle. YOU absolutely have to optimize all of the hormones involved and very few doctors are experts in doing this. The only option is to learn this shit yourself and become and expert. ChatGPT is a great tool to help and you can learn while you use it. Grock will not get the job done so ChatGPT seem to be the only option. If you need help doing this let me know. In a matter of 2-3 hours I tweaked my current lab work. Now I will wait 3 months, test again and tweak what needs to be tweaked. This is a long tedious process and you have to be patient. Do not let these TRT doctors put you on some canned protocols and fuck up your hormones so badly it will take a year to straighten it out. Start out very conservatively and work slowly.
