My experience is The anabolic doc knows what he’s talking about. I did a consultation with him early on, it’s expensive but it was the best money I spent. Once u learn his background, He may have the most experience in this field.He set me on the best path. You have to look at all your markers...
Don’t ever take a statin! I took them for ten years, had terrible brain fog, depression, etc. I’m pretty certain it caused my low T. Statins are the biggest con by big pharma! Watch these videos BY DOCTORS and you’ll learn the truth;
Disagree. Unless you have a norm shbg vs low shbg trt study to cite than your basic assumptions are incorrect. There are many more factors that affect metabolic rates per individual & low shbg is one of them. The low shbg guy will metabolize the testosterone faster & excrete through urine.
Kashman, I can relate to your situation, I have low shbg too. And, when I first started trt my doctor didn’t know what the hell he was doing and had me on one 120mg. shot a week! Felt like crap, went on and off for year, gave up & I just figured trt didn’t work for me. Then I did my homework &...
Not sure. I’m not familiar with those labs. You need a sensitive Estradiol test to evaluate estrogen. AI’s are very, very tricky, I would adjust my dose before even considering an AI. Also, Everyone on this site will tell you six weeks on TRT is nothing. Being on trt takes a time commitment...
I’m have similar SHBG, here’s my two cents. I inject 25mg EOD shallow IM in my shoulders, 1/2 inch needle, 27 gauge. no hcg. I’ve found over two years, this is the best dose. I’ve tried daily, subq, etc. low SHBG means you process the Testosterone quickly, essentially you pass it out in your...
Statins are the single biggest fraud by the pharma industry! The most recent studies show zero.zero % benefit. Early studies on statins were manipulated by big Pharma, they lied about adverse effect, death rates & benefits. I was on Crestor for a decade, couldn’t think clearly, horrible brain...
I have a very similar physiology to you. SHBG around 16-19. Took me over a year to dial in. Yes low shbg is the culprit & most docs don’t know how to handle it. It basically means your a hyper excreter & every time you inject your body processes the T too fast & you piss most of it out. You also...
Are you using IM shots or subcutaneous? I notice subq does not give you the same boost as IM. Why are you doing daily shots? With a normal SHBG you would probably do better on EOD or 2 or 3x per week. Also, I use Quest through discounted labs with the same test & I notice I only feel good with...
I agree with this observation & keep a journal as well! I also have experienced similar patterns that WillyT states. I’ve evolved my protocol through trial & error over time & use testosterone cypionate & nothing else. I’ve dropped the AI & no longer use HCG. I adjust my dose slightly ever 6-8...
My best advice is keep a simple daily journal of your dose of all meds & most importantly how you feel ever single day, I even track sex drive. Also, put your lab results in there. Over time you’ll see patterns develop as you hit your sweet spot. I think testing when you feel good is very useful...
I use 27 gauge 1/2 inch insulin needles. I get them on Amazon, they work perfect. I pressurize my vial with a little air from the syringe then it draws up quickly. Draw & inject with the same gear. Here’s the link:

I switched to SQ for a few months. Yes the injections are easier. But I never felt as “good” as I do on IM even though my labs were similar. But everyone is different, you have to test things to see what works best, some guys love SQ. I think IM just absorbs better for me & I can stay in my...
I wanted to add. TRT requires a medical prescription for those of us who do it the right way. It is a controlled substance. With that in mind the doctors need more training/resources/accountability. Adjusting ones hormones can have great results and horrible results. I think there’s just too...
