Makes total sense. And I too am thinking that many of my benefits are from HCG, secondary hypogonadism would indicate that LH and FSH imitation would have this make sense. I've noticed lowered libido, weaker erections, smaller semen volume, aching testicles, etc. And getting a little tired again...
Luckily, my prior PCP was able to monitor and prescribe hormones. He had been in practice for a long time and always made sure to message me and set up labs all the time. I liked it. I've been on TRT/HCG for about 2 years now and it's been great. Being off HCG, my testicles are getting achy as...
talked to my new PCP. He is doing a short term TRT prescription so I don't crash in hopes that an endo opens up soon. This is all very annoying, no wonder people bypass their doctor and go to TRT mills. I'm almost more knowledgeable than my PCP.
He didn't know what HCG was and was scared it...
I personally have no symptoms and imagine I can solve some of those numbers with easy lifestyle changes. I did forget to include I'm a mile above sea level so it's expected that I have higher RBC and HCT.
My doctor has read my last two messages and left me on read. Insane. I simply cannot...
So my pcp retired, I now have a new pcp who says he cannot prescribe TRT. I was referred to Endo and it's a 6-8 month wait. I'm on my last 1ml vial. I injected .15ml on Monday vs the usual .25 . I've also been out of HCG for 3 weeks...and strangely I can feel the difference.
Furthermore I just...
but How do I keep inventory? I inject just slightly less than my prescribed amount and it's always finishing quick. I use insulin needles too. These 1ml vials suck. I used to get the 10ml monster back in the day and it would always last me way longer than it was supposed to.
I'm not even sure...
I figured. It makes zero sense....I've been on this over a year. My bloodwork is wonderful. No concerning numbers. All within range including lipids. Why hault a renewal due to a missed appointment that I wasn't even requested to schedule. Lame!
So my last vial ran out Monday as I expected it to. My CVS app said an automatic refill would happen yesterday. Nope.
Requested a renewal of the prescription and got no response. Emailed my doctor and then his assistant replied that he did not renew it since it's just been over a year since my...
I agree. I requested that in my initial email to my PCP...didn't happen apparently. I have never known my free or SHBG and I know those are super important. Albumin too.
Total Testosterone 1,049 ng/dl
Down from the 1200 it was initially. I'm actually okay with this?
Triglycerides 75
Cholesterol 165
HDL 51
LDL 99
Glucose 96 (highest I've ever had?)
some results just came in:
RBC: 5.59
Hemoglobin: 17.4
Hematocrit: 50
RDW: 13.9
MCHC: 34.5
Seem okay? Issue for me is, my last CMP test didn't have all of these values somehow.
I have the best insurance that the federal government offers and they wouldn't touch my HCG. TRT is $5 though.
The HCG is out of pocket. $50-something bucks shipped with syringes for a 10ml vial.
I was getting excited as my weight was going down and I was less puffy.
But I've realized my weight is just so up and down day to day.
Prior to TRT and HCG I was about 219 lbs, 16.5" arms. I worked out like a monster. With trt/hcg I went to 240. Strength went up drastically and my arms hit...
lol weight gain? water retention? Yes, yes, and yes x10. I imagine I gained 10-12lbs of crap weight. My body is finally normalizing after about a year. None of my clothes fit normal and now all my "fat" clothes are curtains. I was honestly a little depressed. I looked fat. Weight fluctuations...
