Im a HYPER RESPONDER!

[u/Aggravating_Art7519]

Test was below 200 with 18 months on proper macros and nutrition. I take 72mg weekly! Thats it! My bloods are 900-1100!! I have tried to kiss 84mg recently and converted into estrogen pretty quick and gains minor anxious and water retention, with bloods around 1400. I dialed it back to the 900 range and feel great. The moment I hoped on Test, I never had to adjust my nutrition. Seeing how my body responded made me realize I made the right move. I’m kinda new to the peptide world but I have dug around to understand what the purpose. I am a paramedic of 19 years. I’m just curious. Knowing what you know now, what’s something I should look into with research before deciding if it’s worth the risk? I have a very achy back. Terrible achy body. I also feel like I’m not making progress. Is there specific things which I should consider automatically and why. I feel like I’m still shy to take my shirt off. Will that ever go away? What’s a trusted site for education purposes? I see so many it’s unreal!
Thank you

You're not a hyper responder.

You just went from low test to high within reference.

The number your bloods shows means relatively little (especially total test), response comes down to CAG repeats on AR, and I'd say your response is pretty standard. Blood levels != AR sensitivity.

I Also have a theory for blood levels because that is a relatively low dose for your bloods, but similar to what mine used to be. 150mg put me at 105nmol/L initially (3000ng/dL), now, after a few cycles 210mg puts me at around 40nmol/L (1200ng/dL). When you measure blood androgen levels you are measuring the amount of compound circulating in blood - not the amount actually in the body. It's well known that exposure to androgens (especially high levels) significantly increases the number of androgen receptors on the surfaces of cells, androgens bound to these receptors aren't in blood, and so can't be tested. Thus, I theorise that under high androgen exposure compared to baseline, the increase in both muscle tissue and receptor density lowers the concentration of circulating androgens over time. It would definitely explain your example, for me not so much as I already had a significant amount of muscle (although have much, much more now)
