Susan A.Susie - I was on .5 when I got pregnant.
My dose has varied through the years from .25 to 1.0 (for a brief amount of time). I have been on .5 for many years though - probably about 20+ years I was on .5 and that was the dose I got pregnant on.
Having just taken part in testing at National Institute of Health and talking to Dr Merke about my levels.....she determined that I was on too high of a dose. I have been slowly gaining weight - and having problems with really dry skin ... my testosterone levels were lower than they should be as with my DHEA which was way too low on this dose of .5
So... I’m weaning down to .375 and she’d eventually like me to get down to .25 - though I think that’s too low for me... I’ve tried it before and I went into crisis after doing some strenuous activity.
Are you levels ok at .25 mgs? I was at 1797 when on .25 ... at .5 I am at 65 (too low).
Best wishes on finding the right combination for you.
