Welcome!
a) <50 too low to count.
b) 100mg per week. (50mg twice weekly)
c) 700+
I could do more, but I'm comfortable where I am.
a) about 200
b) 70mg/week
c) about 700+
I wont be upping my dose, as this is the highest amount without my RBC's going above the high end of the range
oh, and welcome to the board KIM (Keep It Moving)

with those numbers, there is really no need for TRT.
And you are 28.
I'd wait 10 or 15 years and reassess the need for TRT.
btw, TRT is not something to look forward to. It is meant as a bridge to bring you back to youthful levels. Your T Scores are very good.
btw, there are a variety of other things you can do besides TRT in your situation that can make improvements
for example:
Ostarine - [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ostarine[/url]
Growth Hormone Releasing Peptides - such as GHRP/cjc1295 stack (about $150+/mo)
that is if you are pursuing gains in the gym.
the answer doesn't always have to be anabolics.
hell, just getting your diet straightened out can do wonders.
Good luck!

With your test levels being in the 500-600 range you may not need testosterone treatment. However, there's something else you need to keep in mind. What are your free testosterone levels? It doesn't matter what your total levels are if your free levels are low. For example, this past Friday we had a client with total levels at almost 700 yet his free levels were 6 and as a result he was suffering heavily from low testosterone symptoms. How about you? Are you suffering from low testosterone symptoms? If so it might be a good idea to see where you're at, find out what your free and total levels are and go from there.
A) 200'sh (secondary)
B) 80-90mg wk (40mg-45mg x2), HCG is 250iu x 3wk
C) 650ng to 725ng/dl (give or take), approx. 3.3% free testosterone
I was around 100-200
I take NEBIDO at 1000mgs every 11 weeks
I will have a range of around 600-700
Don't take any AI, no hcg or anything else just my nebido and it makes me feel amazing
Mine was at 59 and dropping fast due to a tumor.
Now 60mg x 2 per week keeps me between 9-1300 depending on when I test.
HCG 250 IU x 3 per week.
No AI needed.
