Bloods 60 days after starting TRT

[ricroc]

Took my test last Thursday, 10/16, which was 61 days after starting. I'm a touch higher than the usual TRT dose, using 210mg/wk of test C and dosing 30mg daily in the morning. Many of the tests came back better than anticipated, granted, basing that on averages from what I've read/researched. I took bloods three days prior to starting and seems like everything's working well:

Marker	8/13/2026	10/16/2026
Total Test	967ng/dL	1923ng/dL
Free Test	102.5pg/dL	431.2pg/dL
SHBG	85nmol/L	45nmol/L
E2	30pg/mL	13pg/mL
Hematocrit	45.1%	49.1%

About 30 days in, I was concerned E2 was too high, nipples were senstivity, felt lumps and seemed I had water retention (but none of the moody/emotional/lethargic sides of high E2), so I took an LC/MS E2 and it shot up to 70pg/mL. I started taking asin, along with nolva. Sensitivity gone, lumps gone. Gonna back off on the asin for now.

your tot. test was 960ng/dl netty?? Respect! How old are you? You only take test? Your E2 should be higher on 210mg/week.
Take care of your HC, 49% is still in the "green" Range, but it rises, as soon you pass 50 you should be aware of doing something against it. In my case I had to go back to 105mg/week.

Turned 48 in June. It was natty at the time I took it in Aug. I had tried out monotherapies first with enclo and then HCG but stopped the HCG a month prior to that Aug test

I'll keep my eye on the HC.

Not TRT if your test is 1923ng/dl

Why do people call everything TRT now?

Good numbers except for the E2 like @mae_geri mentioned. 200 a week puts me at around 1200 - 1300 so that 1900 is on up there.
