Are you taking the wrong testosterone dose?
Finding the right testosterone dose is not about chasing the highest number on a lab report. The right dose has to work for how you feel, how your testosterone is delivered, when your blood is tested, and whether the treatment is sustainable for your long-term health.
In this presentation, Thomas O’Connor, M.D., Founder and CEO of the Testosteronology® Health Portal, explains how to evaluate whether your current testosterone regimen is really working for you.
You’ll learn:
• Why testosterone levels rise and fall between injections
• Why the timing of your blood work can dramatically change your results
• Peak vs. nadir testosterone levels
• Why testing too soon after an injection may make your testosterone appear excessively high
• Testosterone cypionate, enanthate, Sustanon 250, and testosterone undecanoate
• How injection frequency affects peaks, troughs, symptoms, and consistency
• Microdosing strategies and why some men use more frequent injections
• Intramuscular vs. subcutaneous testosterone injections
• Topical, oral, nasal, patch, and pellet testosterone formulations
• Why the “perfect dose” is different from simply using more testosterone
• How mood, sexual function, energy, body composition, and overall well-being factor into dosing decisions
• Why blood pressure, cholesterol, glucose, red blood cells, iron, prostate health, sleep apnea, and cardiovascular health all matter for long-term TRT
One of the most important concepts in this video is blood-test timing.
If your testosterone level is checked near the peak after an injection, the result may look much higher than it would immediately before your next injection. Dr. O’Connor explains why understanding peak and nadir levels is essential when you and your healthcare professional are evaluating your testosterone dose.
The goal is not simply to find a dose that makes you feel better today.
The goal is to find a testosterone regimen that works for you and can be managed safely and sustainably over the long term.
Whether you are new to testosterone therapy, have been on TRT for years, or previously used anabolic steroids and are now trying to stabilize your testosterone regimen, this presentation explains the factors that should be considered when finding the right dose.
If you are on testosterone, ask yourself:
Are you taking the right dose, or just the dose you were originally prescribed?
Watch the full presentation to understand how Dr. O’Connor approaches that question.

And yes, TRT made a huge difference in the quality of life for me. If you go this route, get informed and get a good doctor. I don't like "clinics" - I just went to a large local urology practice. My only other advice is to get a prescription you can fill at a regular pharmacy. I pay $5/month with insurance, but some places wanted $80. So it pays to be able to shop around.
