    It has to do with your body adapting to your current estor and not breaking it down fully giving you the full effects if the test it is bound to.

    When I went to Androtardyl (Enanthate) after being on Testosterone Cipionate for 2 years, I felt like the Androtardyl had me sleeping better but it was just my body was used to my regular trt med. The switch had me feeling right back to when I first started. I used it for about 6 months then back to my cipionate vials. I've made the switch a few times over the past 3 years on trt.

    Most of that switching back and forth boiled down to availability of my meds from the states ir from what I could get from pharmacy in Niger.

    That said, I'm on a little bit higher dose, out of the realm of trt right now. I was prescribed 180mg e7d. Typically my pin came out to 200mg just for even math. After blood work last r&r my doc said my liver, kidney, PSA, reds, HDL, all looked the best she had ever seen from me. So I upped it to 250mg for 1 months e7d. Then went to 250mg e5d for a month and I've been on 210mg e3d for the past 2 weeks. I'll continue it for another 3 weeks then do labs here on base and drop back to 210mg e7d for a month. Sort of a mini cycle on test only to prep for summer vacation

    Lot of the older guys at the gym would take Androtest and say they couldn't believe it worked that well. iirc it was one of those herbal T boosters... Tribulus? I can't remember the name. Anyway some plant you can eat boosts T really well.

    Everyone is different, but it is not a quick fix. You feel better and better over time, so to reach the full benefit I would say 6mo is reasonable. The shots are not great, but it is what it is and it is worth the trouble.

Our goal is to get it up to 800-900, and I've been told it's a long game, such that most guys don't really start feeling better until 6 months in or so. Has that been y'all's experience?

    Fortunately I've got great insurance, so it's not costing me anything out of pocket, but if things don't change significantly, I don't know that it's worth the hassle of weekly shots.
    I was really low, so I felt it immediately. It did take around 7 months to get the level honed in to where I wasnt riding the roller coaster every week.

    I started taking testosterone about 3 months ago. Went from 203 to 920 test levels. Was going to the low T center but just switched to my doctor so I could get it from walgreens. $40 for 3 months and have my wife give me a shot is a hell of a lot better than $250 a month for the low T center. The people over there were nice but after the first month they don't do shit besides give you a shot once a week. They only do labs every few months, so whats the point of paying that amount. My wife is a nurse so getting shots at home is a lot easier and cheaper.

    Nope. Pellets have ups and downs. Twice a week injections reign supreme.

    Let me know what you find out. I was interested to hear about the time release implants.

    Haha I hear that. Allot of those guys are paying $$ to get HGH. If they are using other compounds most likely they are getting it internet/grey market which is super easy to come by. I have a few in my gym that are in their 60's and jacked in ways you cannot do naturally no matter your age.

    Anything dosed to keep the body within normal range is therapeutic. Anything beyond is a cycle.
