Wouldn't daily test c injections make the peaks and valleys more frequent and smaller? Like the bodies natural cycle. Naturally, High test in the morning, lower in the evening.

Yes, thats the theory behind daily injection which is why it wouldnt make sense to change dosing on different days. I personally do 3x a week (Tue, Thurs, Sat) I find the peaks stronger and before i hit the lows its time to inject again.

Are you currently doing IM or SQ injections?

Honestly, I'm not sure. I'm using 5/8" needle, as deap as I can go into my quad. I might be hitting muscle. I have read so many things about Im vs Sq. Not sure how much it matters with eod or 3 days a week?

Many people support the daily theory to help avoid peaks and mitigate aroatization.

Your dosage, although very low, will take some time to drive up levels, your feels are likely placebo.

If I did it again I would not have started at 200mg (100 2x week) as it drove mine too high.

Here is what 200 a week of Test-ethanoate looks like on labs (YMMV we all respond differently) :

started in June at 60 days of 200wk was only 659 the September test was too high

I am currently doing 57mg EOD, which is 200 mg a week. It is too much, and I will have to dial it back it. Total skyrocketed. Thankfully, other blood markers were good. Not gonna lie, I feel fantastic. Follow up this week with TRT Nation. Man, they are expensive. My hunt continues for great ugl.

I think I found a sweet spot at 75mg Monday (3 days) 87.5mg Thursday (4days)

250iu hcg Tues and Fri.

My numbers were mostly in range, I do not aromatize estradiol much so that remained mid level even at 1142 total, but I did have high hematocrit.

I am feeling symptom relief at lower levels, so want to be conservative.

my last 2 labs March and June
