I was on a 12 week Deca prop, test prop. last 4 weeks added masteron. Did ovidrel periodically through cycle with aromasin.
Followed by Doc's PCT.Its 3 months down the line now and test levels are still below acceptable levels. Atrophy is only now starting to disappear. Sex drive down, but no erection problems. Am i being impatient or should i consider another PCT ?

Did you get prolactin levels tested too?

I see you said you are 44, the PCT you did was effective, and I believe the problem now is age, and this is something you should chat to your doc about, TRT, you are at that age, when testosterone is significantly lower than normal, your baseline test is too low, plain and simple.

If not, your doctor will do another blood tests, and showing the readings your currently have will look at sticking you on testosterone replacement therapy.. It is a very low dose of test, around 50/80mg a week. But this will help against heart complications as well as many others.

I went to a TRT doctor recently who put me on Test cream that had a daily dose of 50mg. 1ml serving is supposed to give you 50mg of Test. I was told to apply everyday. Not sure with this cream, how much is actually absorbed into the body, or if the Test is diluted, but at that rate it would be 350mg Test pw, which seems high for TRT.
I see a common starting prescription is usually about 100mg per week.
When the cream was finished, I just switched to Test Prop at 300mg a week. Now I'm wondering for how long I can stay on this dose? Am I overdosing for TRT?

Ja me neither, it's made by Solal, but I'll have bloods done in about 6 weeks and that will tell me which way to go I think. Remember I'm now running 300mg Test prop a week, it sounds like I might need to drop that dose in a few weeks.
