What is the normal range/window for natural test in the body.

[bigdog250]

Can anyone give me some input on this. What is the normal range of test in a mans body. I've heard the amount per man various, person to person. But I always wondered what would be the average normal amount produced. And then the second part of the question is, how can you compare to a cycle, example if you were taking 500mg test a week, is this roughly twice as much as the normal range or ten times the normal range or what? I've read that the units of measure they use in natural produced test is different than the units of measure always given in a cycle. Can anybody help me out on this?

I think a normal test level is roughly in the 400-900 range. Someone else will have to answer the 2nd part.

500 Mg Is More Than 2x As Much. 250mg Is More Than Twice As Much For Normal People.

I THINK the body produces what would be equal to around 70mg EW.

Maybe MaxRep can jump in on this one.

HDH I am pretty sure you are right or at least damn close with the 70mg/week

Just saw you in the sponsors section. Any feedback? (If you can't post about it PM me)

Are you with Alin?

1. In lab tests, circulating Testosterone is measured as ng/dl... nanograms per decaliter.

2. The normal amount for men ranges from roughly 250ng/dl to 1,000ng/dl. If someone wants to say the numbers are slightly different that's fine... various sources list slightly different numbers but it's approximately what I've listed. The older a male is, the lower his Test production.

To compare natural production (endogenous) with testosterone being injected as part of a cycle (exogenous), you can generally figure that young men (18-30 y.o.) will produce roughly 7-9mg/day or roughly 50-70mg/week. I've previously posted the specific numbers from actual studies published in medical journals.

So you can see that even a mild cycle of say Testosterone at 400mg/week is 6-8 times what the body will naturally produce.

However you also have to keep in mind that natural Test obviously doen't have an ester so whatever you produce naturally, is immediately bound or utilized or metabolized... unlike injected Test which depending on the ester, can circulate for weeks. So the amount actually used if 400mg is injected is only about 200mg's if attached to an enanthate or cypionate ester. And now your mild cycle is at least initially, for the first week, only 3-4 times what your body produces. This is why you frontload by adding an oral or doubling up on the injected amount for several weeks.

yes sir, that's why people can take 250mg at still get gains
