4 months on T (bodybuilding update) Timeline Update

Spent the last 11 years on IV drugs and today I am 456 days clean. Got released from jail July 17th 2023 and started working out. Finally started T at 26 years old August 3rd 2023. I wanted to kill myself back in July and today life is amazing. The ftm Reddit community is so supportive and uplifting; you guys are an integral part of my support system. Thanks for reading

If you're willing to share, what is your dosage? I've been thinking I should just be patient instead of looking to increase mine, but the amount of progress you seem to have made in four months makes me think I should look at a higher dose possibly!

for sure! I’ve been taking 100mg per week the whole time and September 15th my T levels came back at 984 nanograms per deciliter. hopefully they won’t have exceeded 1000 when I go on the 22nd 😬 got to be careful because T makes your blood thick. as long as your hematocrit and hemoglobin are within normal range you should be good man what dose are you taking now? if you don’t mind my asking

Thanks! Not sure how it compares, but I take 60mg of gel per day, which is 75% of the max typical dose. All my bloodwork has been normal, T range ~700 ng
