I don't recommend doing anything your doctor doesn't approve. That said:
I'd get bloodwork to see where my levels are at. If you're low or average, a TRT+ prescription (somewhere around the neighborhood of 200mg) will yield a good 15+ of lean mass in the first 3 months if it's your first time being supraphysiological.

Otherwise, 12-16 week cycles of 400-600mg per week can yield some killer gains, while still being relatively easy to keep bloodwork in check. At 400-600mg you almost certainly need an AI to keep estradiol in a favorable range (between 25-40 pg/ml) This can be very hard to dial in since the amount of aromatization and response to AI varies greatly between individuals. If you don't know what you're doing, you can end up with serious mental and physical side effects.
