High testosterone dosage effects?

I know that a high level of testosterone can cause the excess to be converted into estrogen but is there other effects? Possibly more life threatening or harmful effects?

My old doctor never checked my hormone levels and my new doctor said the dose he prescribed to me was a high starting dose for most people and a high dose for someone of my size all together.

After starting HRT a few months back, I have had some health problems that are beginning to make every day tasks hard. I don't want to put details on here right now because there are no answers yet(I'll find out the results of my tests next week). I was just curious if it was possible for high levels of testosterone to cause any health problems since it's crazy that my health declined rapidly after starting T.

I am not allergic to the type of testosterone either. :)

What are your T and E levels? It's concerning that your doctor would start you on a high dose. Almost every doctor I've heard of starts people low or regular and then only increases or decreases based on levels and patient experience.

High testosterone will start to convert to estrogen. What that turns into is mood swings, water retention, high blood pressure, and chest/breast sensitivity.

You may experience oilier skin, acne. High T can also lead to hair loss.

A big one to be concerned about is red blood cell count. High T can increase this, which increases the chance of heart attacks, strokes, and blood clots.
