I need some advice, Iam 6 weeks in of a 20 week cycle and my doctor called and wants a physical and blood work done, my problem is that I am on hrt and I know he wants to check my test levels, how long should i stay off to bring down my test level but not drop it to nothing? I thought I was in the clear because I had everything checked in spring. I told my doc that i was really busy and could not come in for a couple weeks, my last shot was monday. thanks, Iron

Your fucked! No just kidding no matter what I believe your going to have to stall him somehow. Maybe going out of town for a relative's funeral would work to buy you some time.

its a 20 week low dose- test cyp 250, eq 200 per week. I know its low but I am looking for lean quality gains, then I will go back to my hrt dose of 300 every 2 weeks.

2 weeks before your labs, make sure you only inject 300 mg of cyp. Do not inject any thing else until after your labs are drawn.
I injected 200mg of scripted cyp and 225mg Supertest and 100mg of Deca two weeks before my bloodwork and I came out at top baseline.

If it's really high can't you lie and say you must have messed up your doseage of your HRT and you've injecting too much ACCIDENTALLY?

well maybe, but he watches me like a hawk, and i sure don't want to go back and have a nurse do my injections again. if its high and he takes one look at me, he is going to know somethings up. its true about eq, it makes you really vascular. even at low doses.

I do have two weeks, but I think I would rather be a little low than on the high side, I don't want him to back off my hrt dosage, but if its a little low than maybe he will up it.

I would say if your labs come back high, all you can do is be honest. And if he doesnt like it find another doctor. Maybe he wants labs to confirm his suspicion. That your on something else. It always amazes mem how guys on gear, think you cant really tell.. We can tell. =) Only because you can only make the human body do certain things in a cetain amount of time.

that happen to me and i waited about 2 weeks before my labs and everything turned out fine, and he kept me on the same trt dose. I was about 10 weeks into a 16 week cycle of test c and eq as well. good luck bro

BE CAREFUL. One of USA friends just had his doctor drastically reduce and change his HRT due to too high of levels.

I guess the question would be if the normal test for testosterone detects EQ. If not, then you just have to worry about your 500mg per week clearing out. You could run some half life calcs and then just add enough test back in if needed. I not sure if you need to take anything 2 weeks out because you were essentially running 150mg per week on HRT and 2 week intervals is a little long IMO so you would be running in a pretty deep through at test time.

he should claim hes on vacation and let himself crash... that way when the doc checks he can be like i totally spaced it out, i am sooo sorry stuff has been so crazy right now, i couldnt bring a needle with me on the plane ect.

Well it's been 2 1/2 weeks and just got my labs done yesterday, I thought my test level would have been lower but it came in at 1021ng/dl, so its over the high end of the scale, so my doc said "no need to change your dose its just a little high" I'm like OK... but my cholesterol is high and he wants to discuss it. Next week is my physical so we will see what that brings, I know my blood pressure in a little high because of the eq. I am taking Hawthore berry and policosanol with niacin to help...
