'Natural' Levels vs TRT Levels?

Define “1000” (assuming you are referring to 1000 ng/dl) with TRT vs “1000” natural.

As properly measured 1000 natural would be peak. 1000 on TRT could be (often is) trough. Is that trough with weekly injection, E3.5D injection, EOD injection, ED injection?

The mean TT levels for those 4 TRT cases are different and considerably higher than the mean natural levels by 30 to 100%+. Typical mean level for a natural with 1000 peak would be 600 to 800 ng/dl.

Important to define properly. Hence “1000 TRT” would likely give much more area under curve than “1000 natural” and why some guys get considerable side effects on “TRT”. They also carry more muscle with same bodyfat level (positive or negative depending on how you look at it).

Hence don’t confuse your natural peak with your TRT trough. Very different animals.

Enjoy.

Obviously treatment above changes with different T delivery method and its pharmacokinetic profile.

In short, Yes the way TRT and TOT is often done today.

For example, watch out for @Andrewgen_Receptors blood work when he finally posts that up.
