I have heard a couple times recently that NAC supplementation can increase red blood cell count/elevate hematocrit. I searched to see what i could find and got this example.... N-acetylcysteine for the management of anemia and oxidative stress in hemodialysis patients - PubMed Has anyone had...

For the last 2 months I have been taking Grapefruit Seed Extract to hopefully help lower Hematocrit. My last blood donation was June 1st, 2017 at which time my hematocrit was 52.5 after 5 months without donating. I just did bloodwork this past Friday (after not donating since June 1st which is...

I was travelling to the USA and planned to get the sensitive Estradiol test through Discounted Labs/Labcorp as it is not available in Canada. I though it would be a good opportunity to compare the results between Labcorp and Life Labs (Canadian). So while I was at it I also got TT, FT and SHBG...

What frequency of injection is common for people when doing daily test injections? I am currently doing 44mg test and 280u EOD but due to assumed (soon to be verified) low/decreasing SHBG I am considering daily test injections. I am not sure if i should do the HCG daily as well? Does HCG have...

Can someone help me to understand these relationships? It "seems" that Free Testosterone and Albumin-bound testosterone are bioavailable and constitute the useful portion of our Total Testosterone. It also "seems" that Testosterone bound to SHBG is unusable/unavailable. With this in mind if...

I have been on TRT for over 4 years with generally good results. It does seem that I have to keep tweaking my protocol to maintain good levels of hormones and feel good. It also seems that I feel best in the first weeks that I am adapting to a change in protocol. All the following tests were...

I have read a lot lately about people taking Metformin even though they are not diabetic/pre-diabetic for health/anti-aging reasons. As I'm sure you are all aware, it is purported to have beneficial effects similar to calorie restriction as well as the many other health claims. It is also cited...

I have watched Nelson's video on combining Test and HCG in one syringe. I am interested to know whether it is acceptable to pre-load a weeks worth of syringes with both medications and store them in the fridge for quick use?

I just received blood work results from Life Labs showing the range for free T has changed dramatically. it shows the range as 179 - 475 pmol/l my result is 591 previous results had @ 25 - 80 pmol/l my result was 79 it seems odd the the range would change like that? I triple checked and the...

I am curious as to how quickly an new injection would show up on blood work? I've always read to get blood drawn right before the next injection. For reference I follow a 2x/week protocol (every 3.5 days). From everything I've read, it seems, blood levels peak 48 - 72 hrs after injection which...

Occasionally I will find a new, unopened Nipro 3ml syringe in my box that looks a bit damp where the plunger meets the injection end of the syringe. I just found one that appears to have a small amount of thick, clear liquid/gel that you can see stitching from the plunger to the syringe when...

I am preparing to switch from deep IM injections of Test Cyp @ 2x per week, and separate HCG injections, to the method shown in Nelson's video which combines TC and HCG in one smaller syringe also 2 x per week. Can anyone who's made this change advise if there will be an adjustment period or is...

Sorry if I am late to the game or if this has already been posted but I received this through an online subscription to a magazine and thought i would share it. http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2015-08/varc-so8081015.php

I have read that repeated use of the same injection site can cause scar tissue. I am only comfortable injecting into the side of my thighs and alternate between sides. However with a twice/week injection protocol Im injecting the same site once per week. My question is....is scar tissue...

Does anyone know if taking Vitamin K2 is contraindicated in men receiving TRT? I read that warning on a bottle of K2 once but have never seen it again (even on the same brand) and searching online has provided no answers. Since it seems K2 is important in conjunction with D3, especially for bone...

I am new to the forum but have read much of the information here over the past two years. As a result of information found here, and in Nelsons book "Testosterone: A Man's Guide" as well as information from LEF and Dr. Crisler, I found the root cause of the symptoms I had been experiencing. I...
