I am having an issue with finding out what my T levels should be.  I just went for my 3 month but (16th shot so 4 months technically) checkup and my T level is 666. 
So I am wanting to know if that is good.  Should I increase or decrease my dose?

And feel free to re direct me to any other threads that have already been started on this topic.  I just can't find it.

Thanks for the info and advice

It depends. For instance, my T levels started somewhere between 550-580. After four months (Feb-June) my T levels were less than 10, which I understand is "unmeasurable". Each person is different, each person will react to the changes differently, you can't really base your own expectations on anything anyone else says. Not much has changed developmentally for me since Feb, whereas other girls have had major changes in that time frame and have much higher levels of T and lower levels of E than me. Things will happen, you just have to be patient. Unlike a friend of mine who has been on hormones barely longer than a hear and has already gone through SRS, FFS, and BA with many revisions. If you rush things the results will look, well, rushed!

As far as discussing dosages, that's a bit taboo here as it promotes self medication. Discuss your dosages with your doctor and they should be willing to work with you. Think of the first four months as a bit of calibration. It's hard to know how much is too much, or how little is too little the first time through.

Thanks for your response.

I understand and agree with all that you said I just didn't know if there was something I was missing. 

When I was inquiring about increasing or decreasing it was from the stand point of "if I should discuss the increase or decrease with my dr".  I agree that self medicated is not the way to go.

You lost me on the how you would get a T level of 10....

Thanks again for your input.

If your doctor thinks like my doctor, he/she would probably say you're on the high end of fine.
Recommend calling and asking if it's bugging ya.
