My prescription is 0.5 ml per week. So I am supposed to draw 1 injection and throw away the remainder of the 1.0 ml vial. I have noticed that the full prescription period assumes I use the entire vial so 5 vials are supposed to last 10 weeks instead of only 5. I believe their computer program...

First, I don't understand why you need Testosterone supplementation at 29 years old though there are medical reasons for this. Second, please do get a calcium scoring. I had no irregular heartbeats and my EKG looked good but I was not confident my heart was good. My dad passed away at 47 with...

I have read recently that Resveratrol may lower Estradiol. Any one here tried that?

Are there any studies showing that level is not abnormal for patients using TRT? The Anastrozole prescriber is an NP and will likely be reluctant to take my word for it. Right now, my insurance pays for the testosterone and lab tests except I do have a $2,700 deductible.

I took only .5mg once last week instead of twice as prescribed. Its not very accurate anyway because this pill is not scored so it doesn't cut cleanly. As I understand it, my Estradiol at 46 is not really high anyway. My testosterone was 837 at the time of this test.

I hope so. PSA doubled about 6 months ago to 0.16 so that raised concerns among the doctors but it did not increase with the blood tests last week.

I can't argue with your presumption. She prescribed the medicine last week the day after my blood tests came back without talking to me. I saw her for the visit a couple hours ago but didn't know enough to ask her anything about the new medicine. I am on TRT. I was treated for prostate...

Doctor said Estradiol was high and taking 1/2 dose twice a week should lower it. When I looked up my Estradiol number, it is a little high on some sources and within range on other sources. The pharmacist recommended taking it at night before I go to bed to lessen any adverse side-effects I may...

Recent blood test: Estradiol E2. = 46.4 Testosterone = 837 PSA Ultra-Sensative = 0.16 New medicine prescribed: anastrozole 1 mg tablet Take 0.5 tablets (0.5 mg total) by mouth twice a week.

You can get an MRI if you are willing to pay for it. No health insurance company is going to cover the cost just to satsify your curiosity since the doctor does not see a medical reason. A PSA of 2.5 is good.

I never took hCG but my testosterone did not come back after over 6 months so I restarted TRT.

I take sublingual B12 in the form cyanocobalamin but my blood tests do not include B12.

My hormone doctor recommended DHEA and said to take it at night. I wonder when others take it.

I have read a lot of warnings about ashwagandha interfering with many medicines. I take medicine for blood pressure and thyroid and 2 doctors warned me to never take that supplement. I had not taken it but told them I do take some supplements. That is the only one they were concerned about.

What does T = 20 feel like? Awful. No energy, no sex drive, no erections, lack of focus, every tendon & ligament in my body ached, muscle turned to fat, couldn't sleep more than 2 hours, blood triglycerides tripled, depression, etc. Many days I had all the aches and pains like when you have...
