No, it is not. Many men sit above 1000 & it feels right to them, especially men who suffer from relative hypogonadism. The awesome thing about what makes Testosterone so safe is that you cannot overdose, you may just experience a spike in side effects if you jump incredibly high, but that is not where you are.

If you feel good & don't have side effects, you should be fine.

Different labs have different reference ranges for what is considered high or low. Many labs consider anything above 850 as high. Other labs consider 1200 the upper threshold of normal. While there is no universal definition regarding what the threshold of what equates as high or low testosterone, the general consensus is that 1200 is the upper limit of normal.

And technically, there is no such thing as a “dangerously high” testosterone level. There is no such thing as an overdose of testosterone. Once androgen receptors are saturated any additional testosterone is either converted into estrogen, DHT, or just excreted.
