View Full Version : need a small show in Va not tested
It looks like I will probably end up doing some sort of TRT, so will not be able to compete naturally as planned. I now need to find a small non tested show in VA, NC, MD in the October-November time frame. I will have to compete in Masters instead of novice, but that's ok, it will be my first show.
I have long way to go, but I am working hard on it. Here is how I looked about 3 weeks ago. I think I have done pretty well considering I have a female testosterone level...lol

I am curious. You mean if you take just a replacement amount of Testosterone you can not compete naturally? Does that account for all supplements or just testosterone and hgh?

I would get on a TRT as soon as I could, if my hormones were that bad at your age, depending on what the physician sees and finds out. I think a Trip to Dr Crisler would be well worth it. I am 24 and have the same problem due to a chronic testicular infection (*Orchitis). So I am looking at my treatment program on this up comming friday.

Correct, zero outside testosterone. They test a ratio called T/E and it cannot be over 6:1. I have no idea what the E stands for.
apparently the body produces the T/E in a ratio, but when outside T is introduced, no E is produced, so the ratio goes wack.

E=epitestosterone, maybe?
Exactly, that is the ratio!

That's not exacty true. In doses above normal (supraphysiological levels) as in typical bodybuilder doses, the T/E ratio would be outside the 6:1 ratio.
So in normal ranges which is what TRT is designed to do, your range will fall under the 6:1 range, but there should never be an instance where E = zero.
