    IGF-1 Out of range. Cause for concern?

    I was at 167 right before starting and 181 a few months after starting. So I guess I was already above the mean according to the reference range.

    IGF-1 Out of range. Cause for concern?

    I've been on TRT for around 18 months. 50mg x2week plus HCG 500iu x2week. My free t and estrogen run high but I don't really have any sides and my Hematrocrit stays steady around 49. But on the last test my IGF-1 came back at 219 ug/L with a ref range of 65-200 ug/L. I assume this is because I...

    Anxiety about IM injections

    Regarding delts: I have tattoos on both my delts. Any issues injecting into tattoos?

    Anxiety about IM injections

    Yes I meant to say shallow IM with a insulin needle, but I guess I could continue using the switchable syringe just with shorter needles. I have a bunch of 29 gauge 1/2" insulin syringes for HCG so maybe I will just use those for now. I am using Delatestryl so 50mg is only 25ml, which should not...

    Anxiety about IM injections

    I am so glad I started this thread, I am not sure why I didn't think of just switching to a subQ in the delt or even in the ventroglute. I guess because before I was using subQ in my side belly fat and it was giving me bruises. Thanks everyone!

    Anxiety about IM injections

    Good point. I have the insulin needles for HCG. When I changed to 2x per week I switched to longer switchable needles because it took so long to fill the insulin syringe and I had some tell me it’s better to go deep with shots.

    Anxiety about IM injections

    Thanks for the suggestion. Yes, maybe that may work for me. Do you know of any good instructional vids? I will take a look on youtube.

    Anxiety about IM injections

    Hey All. I have been on TRT for about a year. I started with daily subQ injections for the first four months, then switched to 2x weekly IM in the ventroglute with a 1 1/2inch needle. Felt better after the switch but I also added HCG at the same time. I was switching sides every injection and...

    Delatestryl (TE) drug shortage across Canada

    I almost switched to Natesto because I couldn't find any test cyp or Delatestryl in BC. The pharmacy had to order the Natesto because they had never dispensed it. But when I went in to pick it up, they said they had just received a single vial of test cyp. So I have avoided the Natesto for now...

    Blood Tests 8 Months In

    I gave Tyrosine a shot but it seems to upset my gut at higher doses. It didn't make the Ritalin start working again but it did seem to give a little lift. A lot of people say they need to cycle Tyrosine or else it loses effectiveness. I'm going to try running it again to see what happens. I have...

    Blood Tests 8 Months In

    The Ritalin stopped working after about a month of amazing results. I have been off for over a week because I am doing a few weeks of Ketamine infusions. I doubt I will go back on it. I think you may be right about the constant use of these stims. I am considering trying dexedrine as long as I...

    Blood Tests 8 Months In

    Yes, good point. Also, I assume our levels are not impacted by poor sleep. When I get a crappy sleep now I still get up and do my training as if I got 8 hours.

    Blood Tests 8 Months In

    As usual, thanks for your insight madman. This made me lol when I read it. I am still new to reading blood biomarkers so I still don't have a clear understanding of the relative values, especially when it comes to troughs etc. I also tend to watch and listen to a lot of guys who are doing...

    Blood Tests 8 Months In

    Interesting, well maybe I may have to reduce my dosage. I guess I will see what the doc says. I hate to reduce when I'm feeling all the benefits and my hematocrit going lower. The only thyroid test I got was TSH and it has not changed since I started TRT.

    Blood Tests 8 Months In

    Hey all, just got my blood results in. I have been on TRT (100mg/week) since July 2022, I am 54. I told my doc in November that I didn’t like the testicular atrophy, so he gave me a script of HCG, 500iu, twice per week. Starting in November, I also switched from daily to twice per week of...
