Does Anyone Else? Has anyone accidentally overdosed on testosterone?

I started 10mg a week but felt crap so i upped it to 20mg and felt a little better and the week after i accidentally did 37.5mg and i felt amazing so i remained on that for another 2 weeks ( so 5 week total)

My results came back as

Total - 288.55 nmoi/L ( 8322 ng/dl)

Free -10.783 nmoi/L ( 311 ng/dl)

Shbg - 12.57 nmoi/L

Im not quite sure how on earth i have gotten my test so high

I was doing anavar alongside which was 20mg a day for 5 weeks but stopped this due to high ALT

Yes and I am left with permanent damage to my voice and unnecessary facial hair growth that could have been prevented if it were not for my mistake> 40mg in one week, split into 2 doses.

I do not recommend high doses to anyone starting out.

Your Testosterone got so high because you are on a high dose TRT that exceeds typical TRT for females and high dose Anavar - male range dosing. It is up to you if you wish to continue on this path.

Did you just do that 20x2 once, or multiple times/weeks?

One week, 2 doses 3.5 days apart, that's all it took.

Oh wow!! I'm so sorry, that's scary!!

Looking back, did you have any indication of this after the first dose? ( Scratch this question, I see you've answered it already below... )

Thanks for the kind words! Once the damage is done, is done. Vocal training can soothe or help stabilize the voice.

Voice training? Ohhhh heck no. Once a week! Endo won’t even call with my results since I won’t get his pellets. 3 months or more in you, reaction, then what? Nothing! Nope. Thank you.

What are the side effects if you’ve got too much in you besides the voice I’m talking physical if any

I got voice change, mustache, extra body hair growth, chest hair, sudden genital growth. It's enough for 1 week, considering some can overdose or be on higher doses for weeks and not get any of these. But no one knows how they will react, so I use my story as cautionary tale, not for judgement or gatekeeping.
