Wife was diagnoised with very low test. She did an inject to 1/2 ml cyp 100mg last Tues and is complaining of bloat. Should we have done prop instead? If so what would be a good dosage for hrt, and should she use ldex or aromasin? |

i'll wait for someone else on this one, as i have no experience or opinion on this issue. i'll get on some research and see. but form what i've heard, the faster-acting prop os a better choice with less chance of virilization... ~MINX

100mg of testosterone is what many guys on TRT use and it will certainly increase her serum testosterone to levels far above the normal range for women.
I recommend that she discontinue treatment and get an opinion from another physician.

Generally women that suffer from low test levels will be given an androgen replacement cream or a patch, such as androgel or androderm. This way the test levels are easily controlled because of the fast acting nature of transdermal testosterone. Also there is no need for constant injections, therefore the HRT is very comfortable and safe. Like I said, that is typically what a doctor will give a female if she needs extra test in her system. Unless she is looking to build muscle testosterone injections are a bad idea. Besides that women should never use long test esters like cypionate, enanthate, or deconate like in sustanon. There is just too much risk with virilization. Hope that helped.
