Possible to do a cycle while on TRT

[DaVinci2]

This might seem like a totaly random question (A stoopid one maybe). I have just started TRT. It's only been 2 shots and I'm still not feeling as so many said they do once they've started. I know it takes time. However, my friend is in the process of setting up a cycle so that he's in good shape before his wedding. He's asked if I would consider a cycle with him. I told him I want my test to be in the normal ranges for a while before considering it. However, even then I'm not sure if it's a smart idea to try. Any comments?

Come on, you know the answer to that. Ofcourse it is not a good idea to try it at this time. You now started TRT and your hormones will take some time to stabalize and may require adjustments to reach a good level where you feel best. Ofcourse doing a cycle now will make things worse because you will not be able to titrate the dose properly while on the cycle and possibly for quite a long peroid after the cycle is complete. It will only make things harder for you and make you wait a longer time to get your hormones in check. I am not sure what you are asking because you already know what you should and should not do...

While I have no plan on doing a cycle any time soon, I did in the past. The I find out I have test deficiency. So, I get started on TRT. While my friend talks about his cycle and asks if I join him the same cycle I start to think "Is it even possible to do this? Do people actually up their weekly test, or do 2 shots instead of the regular 1. I'm just wondering if anyone has or if there's even a protcol to follow if you do. If not, and if it's a bad idea for many reasons, then I just won't. I'm just trying to figure it all out.

My Dr. has doubled my dose of T but I was sick with a bad infection and the stress of it was using up the T meds. Doing this helped to keep my levels up. For me when I get an infection I have a dam hard time getting rid of it.

I teach kids and I'm constantly around sick kids with stuffy noses drooling on me. It's also a very stressful job. Would this be cause enough to think that the 125 shot of test isn't enough? For 2 days after the shot, I feel fine and can handle any of the stress that comes with the job, it's on that 3rd day on that I'm back to how I normaly feel and want to go home.

Only way to tell is a blood test doing 150 mgs. of Depo T shots every week only got me up to 650 and I felt this way. Adding HCG my levles jumped up to 1087 range 262 to 1593 so this has me in the upper 1/3 of my labs range and I feel my best here. Doing this drove up my E2 so I am not doing my shots every 3 days I do 64 mgs. of Depo T every 3 days and the day before this I do 250 IU's of HCG this has my E2 down and me feeling my best.
