    Can apple cider vinegar help with weight loss?

    As far as taste, I find it goes down best with apple juice or white grape juice. I never got a fat reduction benefit.

    PELLETS ... Confused!

    They are an easy, no fuss option, but the drawbacks mentioned above are real, and significant. I didn't experience wild highs and lows, rather an intial high and a gentle coast to low. You can avoid going in the ditch by getting another insertion a month before they run "out" but that...

    MALE BIRTH CONTROL PILLS: This is a REALLY Bad Idea

    I read about this a few days ago and I could not help but think they are going in exactly the wrong direction.

    Ejaculation and Orgasm Problems

    When I got zombie d*ck, I was told that cialis could be a contributing factor. I got off of cialis, and over time, I started feeling everything (mostly) back to normal. I recently started taking butea superba, and it has helped a lot with erections and orgasms.

    Do pde5 increase length of intercourse time or could it be tied to estrogen

    I was on low dose cialis for a while and I developed zombie d*ck. I could go on forever, but I couldn't finish. I finally got the "feels" back in ole Johnson when I got off of everything and did a HTPA restart with clomid.

    Is there any way to reverse balding? Anybody have success?

    My hair is thinning at the crown, not male pattern baldness. Minoxidil didn't do anything for me. I started shaving my head almost two years ago. I have gotten more compliments on my shaved head than I ever got on my hair.

    Failing to Finish

    I was on daily cialis. It helped my erections tremendously, but it wasn't long before I started losing sensation. . . aka "Zombie D*ck". My doctor could not explain the zombie D, but he did say it could be a side effect of the cialis.

    Newbie on pellets...did I just screw up?

    I had a great experience with my pellets when I first had them inserted. Very often, the body has a honeymoon period with TRT before your body shuts down it's own production. Chances are, you are going to feel great for a few months. Enjoy it. The second time I had pellets inserted, I...

    my test is too high

    Poor Doc, he is confused. Low T is bad for the bones and heart. Your T is in-range and good for you.

    Tracking My Walking: Which Watch Should I Buy?

    I have a Polar Loop, and after two years, I have just about worn it out. I like the product, but my next tracker will be a Samsung wearable so I can connect it to my phone without an additional app.

    Testicular Lump

    A testicular ultrasound is awkward, but not painful. I was led to the ultrasound room and given a hospital gown and a hand towel. I changed into the gown and sat on the table as instructed. I was instructed to lay my p*nis up toward my stomach and cover it with the hand towel. The tech...

    Total Men's Primary Care in Austin, TX

    I was on pellets when I went there. When the pellets ran out, I was on HCG for about 6 weeks, then I went to clomid. The clomid seems to be working for me--nothing too dramatic, but no side effects either--so I am pretty happy. I think they are a good company, and they provide a lot of...

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
