I feel a little better but I’ve made an appointment with a second urologist just to get a second opinion. On two other forums dedicated to Prostate Cancer more than one guy said that they were told at first that all they had was a simple infection yet a year or two later they were diagnosed with...
I saw the urologist today due to someone canceling their appointment.
A urinalysis showed a lot of white blood cells in the urine. The urologist did the DRE and said that he felt nothing indicating cancer but my prostate felt swollen and softer than normal indicating prostatitis, according to...
I have made an appointment to see the urologist on Thursday, August 5th.
Last Monday, exactly one week ago on July 26th I had another PSA test for the appointment on Thursday and I was able to see the results this morning on Labcorp’s app that I have on my phone.
My PSA was 3.2.
On July 19th...
I have been on TRT since March of 2018.
I will be 58 years old in September, in two more months.
My PSA went to 2.0 a few weeks after starting TRT but fluctuated back down to 1.4 by November of 2018 and since then it has stayed between 1.4 and 2.18 between April 2018 and November 2019, going...
Most, if not all countries in South America sell Testosterone over the counter as if it were aspirin. I can speak for Colombia and Brazil as far as South America goes and ditto for Mexico and the Dominican Republic.
Therefore you won’t have a problem at all in those countries.
When you return to...
I am on vacation outside of the U.S. for the next two weeks and my prescription of Testosterone Cypionate has run out. I can only refill it at certain times and the next eligible date is today, but I'm not in the U.S.
I can buy Testosterone over the counter without a prescription in the country...
I visit Colombia on a regular basis, about every two months, so it's convenient for me.
But if someone needs Arimidex real bad because their E2 is too high but they sadly have one of those all too common doctors who don't know what they're doing and thus won't write them a prescription, it might...
Need to get Arimidex (Anastrozole) but don’t have insurance OR you have insurance but every doctor you go to refuses to write you a prescription?
Come to Colombia and buy a box of thirty 1mg pills over the counter for $32 dollars ($50,000 COP).
I just bought this box one hour ago for the above...
For about three weeks I was waking up about three times a week with my heart racing as if I were running a marathon. There was no pain, no sweating or shortness of breath, just the high heart rate. Even my resting heart rate during this time was about 80 when normally it's in the fifties.
This...
Thanks for the information, I will ask about that. I saw a cardiologist on Monday and he put me on an Event Monitor that I will wear for 15 days. Then he said he'll do a Echocardiogram and a Stress Test. I was told some years ago by a gastroenterologist that I do have a hiatal hernia after he...
My Total Testosterone was 1268 ng/dl with a reference range of 380 to 1100
My estradiol was 58.44 pg/ml with a reference range saying it should be less than 62.
My SHGB was 35.80 nmol/L with a reference range of 10 to 57 nmol/L
These were done on December 20th 2018.
Does anyone agree with this:
Sometimes I think that TRT can be a source of anxiety in and of itself. Although the articles on this forum debunk A LOT of the negative crap that's written by the media about TRT there's always that little thought in the back of your mind where you wonder if you'll...
My diet has been the same and I eat very healthy. I eat red meat from time to time, but mostly fish (tuna & salmon) as well as chicken. I eat a lot of fruit and vegetables, lentils, whole grain rice, beets (juiced and steamed), broccoli, etc.
My one vice is that I drink a lot of espresso coffee...
I was using an AI (Arimidex, .25mgs 2x per week) when my dose was 200mgs of Cypionate per week, but since reducing my dose to 100 per week divided into two shots I have not used one.
Maybe I need to. My E2 was within normal limits on a non-sensitive test when I checked it last month.
I have been on TRT since March of this year, 2018.
I started on 200mgs of cypionate per week but in August I reduced the dose to 100mgs per week divided into two 50mgs injections on Monday and Thursday.
The past two weeks I have been having severe anxiety attacks where I'll wake up with a rapid...
Why would taking 200mgs divided into four 50mg doses be worse than taking 200mg in two 100mg doses on Monday and Thursday? It's the same amount in the end.
Is there something about those little doses being given so frequently that increases the anabolic power of the testosterone?
Those are OUTSTANDING numbers! Your total testosterone and your E2 are perfect, especially if you're not taking an AI.
I've been doing injections since early March of this year, six and a half months, and my hematocrit remains at low normal (around 42 to 43 with a reference range of 37 to 52)...
Do you find that injecting that way helps to reduce E2 compared to when you injected just once or twice per week?
Are your testosterone levels better and do you feel better physically compared to the other methods?
Is there any benefit in injecting four times a week instead of two in order to reduce E2 and keeping Test levels even?
For instance if one's dose is 200mgs of Cypionate, instead of injecting 100mgs on Monday and Thursday they inject 50mgs on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday for a total...
I am prescribed 200mg of testosterone cypionate per week but I only take 100mgs per week.
Last Monday I withdrew my 100mg dose into an Easy Touch insulin syringe with a 27 gauge needle. The dose was at exactly 50 units which is 100mgs.
Just now I withdrew my dose for this week using advice from...
GREAT ADVICE.
I just tried this and it literally emptied the vial completely.
Afterwards I held the vial up to a light and turned it upside down and rightside up looking for any tiny drops of testosterone and I saw nothing.
It was completely empty.
The pharmacy (CVS) gave me four 1ml bottles instead of the one larger bottle that I've seen people use on YouTube videos about TRT. Are these bottles problematic when you want to divide your dose or are they just as easy to draw from as the larger bottle is?
I just bought the very same type of syringe from Easy Touch. The box arrived today. I began doing my own shots this week after changing doctors.
My current testosterone dose is 100mg of cypionate per week. Divided into two doses, I would fill the syringe to the 25 units mark, since 100 units is...
I started at 200mg per week on March 5th with another doctor who had me come in to his office for the shots. This week I am changing to a new doctor (a urologist) who will let me do my own shots. He has prescribed me 200mgs per week like the last doctor did, but to be honest, about three weeks...
This week I begin TRT with a new doctor (a urologist) who will let me do my own injections unlike the other one who wanted me to come to his office for the shots.
Due to all the videos I’ve been watching on YouTube I was expecting a single bottle of testosterone for the month’s supply but when I...
I am going to be changing doctors starting in September and the new doctor I'll be going to (a Urologist) said that he lets his TRT patients do their own injections.
Since I started I have been getting my weekly injections of 200 mgs of Test Cypionate at the doctor's office, so I am totally...
"Your dosing is not half way thru the week. You go three days then a shot then you go 4 days".
I inject Tuesday at noon and then on Friday night at 9:00pm which is three days.
Then from Friday until the following Tuesday is four days, so it's the same as the Monday and Thursday schedule as far...
I know that when you inject testosterone once per week you should draw blood for testing on the morning of the next injection prior to injecting.
But how about if you've divided your dose into two injections?
I used to inject 200mgs of cypionate once a week on Tuesdays, but starting two weeks...
I have also discovered that the position of my arm causes changes in blood pressure readings. If l take my BP with my arm hanging down the side of my body the reading will be slightly high, like 130/80 but when my arm is resting on a table at the level of my heart the reading is always...
