Double checking 1st Cycle

[trtchin]

44 year old male been on TRT for 1 year before starting my cycle.

Used last year to lose a ton of weight and fat and kicked off this blast beginning of September. Previously I did have some nipple sensitivity on TRT when trying higher doses but I was a bit fatter at that time.

I wanted to be conservative because I am old lol so I decided to do a 350 mg weekly test c blast injecting daily. I also used a very small test p kickstart to get my levels up a bit quicker.

Anyways I am 4 weeks in with absolutely zero sides and no AI use and now I am wondering if i should be running more test?

Why haven't you had your e2 checked? Just because your nipples aren't itchy, doesnt mean the glands aren't growing.

I was planning on getting a blood test 6 weeks in.

4 weeks is good.

You were already on trt, so it doesnt take as long to saturate. With e2 taking two weeks to come back, you don't want to be 8 weeks in and discover you've got a set of titties coming in.

I honestly didnt know that you could develop gyno without some symptoms starting like itching or tenderness.

Assuming my E2 isnt higher than say 50 what would you recommend. Stay at 350 or go higher?

Also my lab doesn't have ultra sensitive e2 unfortunately. But results are same day.

350 is a pretty good blast, especially if it's your first or early blast. Eat in a surplus and you will grow/get stronger.

If your log book says you are still progressing, no. Don't add more drugs just for the sake of adding more drugs.

If your logbook shows you are stagnant, eat more. Sleep more. Fix your training,

Only after everything is perfectly optimized and you still aren't growing more according to your logbook... then add a very small bit more test.

Rinse and repeat
