    Restoring testicle size

    Cataceous ... I never related it to atrophy when I experienced similiar testicle pains about 2 months ago after being on Androgel. Thought that I had just pulled something or overexerted myself but it makes perfect sense now. Started 0.2 ml /x2 weekly injections of HCG 1-1/2 weeks ago to...

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.
