    Anyone know about Nandrogen? Oralonly.com is selling it. Sounds too good tobe true.

    It's possible they are offering a mega dose of oral TU in the 1-2 grams range. A couple points that give me pause, besides the insane numbers: They claim DHT remains physiologic, which is laughable and impossible with a high dose of oral T. They also claim injections stop working after a...

    Worth it to try TRT? (31 M) digestion issues

    Very unlikely. If anything, higher levels of sex hormones worsen digestion, and slow motility further (estrogen and progesterone are perhaps worse than testosterone and DHT in this regard).

    First labs 11 weeks into TRT. Should I be concerned?

    I would try dropping to 100 mg personally with these labs, and retest with better quality tests next time. My main concern with a larger reduction is dropping too low with your E2 into the symptomatic zone. You might think about hCG in the future to bring up your E2 and improve your T/E2...

    DHT/estradiol optimal ratio in men

    You're probably barking up the wrong tree with the ratio here. You're doing at least three things which are commonly associated with poor libido and erectile problems: Daily injections of long esters Use of primobolan at any dose Massive doses of testosterone (Controversial bonus) Subq injections

    DHT/estradiol optimal ratio in men

    What protocol is producing these labs? Scrotal cream?

    Post TRT - Libido is DEAD :(

    We need someone to come on here arguing for everyone to start at 200 mg weekly to put things in perspective. You guys aren't really that far apart in the end. Where's Keith Nichols when you need him?

    Testosterone Carrier Oils: What Men on TRT Actually Need to Know

    It uses chlorobutanol as preservative, not BB and BA: https://www.drugs.com/pro/delatestryl.html#:~:text=Delatestryl%20Description,chloral%20derivative)%20as%20a%20preservative.

    Post TRT - Libido is DEAD :(

    Depends on the dosage, application frequency, and the levels reached. With once daily scrotal application of 100 mg testosterone as cream, a dose sufficient for 9 in 10 men to exceed 1,000 ng/dL total testosterone at peak, the vast majority of men will have a detectable LH level greater than...

    Longtime user with new intense anxiety, unsure of proper E2 levels, in desperation mode, please help! Bloodwork included

    Everyone should be paying more attention to free T than total T, regardless of their SHBG. Free T is what matters with regards to symptoms and effects: total T is almost meaningless by comparison. E2 was still too high here at 80 mg weekly. I reverse engineered your SHBG as 14 nmol/L here, and...

    Post TRT - Libido is DEAD :(

    Yes, stop the enclomiphene. You didn't need to PCT after using androgel in the first place. Don't add random things. Stop the enclomiphene, wait some weeks, and re-assess.

    Post TRT - Libido is DEAD :(

    Kills libido in some cases by blocking estrogen receptors in brain areas responsible for libido. It's the conversion of testosterone to estradiol in key brain regions that drives libido, it's not testosterone itself doing that work. If you take enough of an aromatase inhibitor, you'll see the...

    Post TRT - Libido is DEAD :(

    The enclomiphene may be killing your libido - try stopping that. It will do that in some men. You don't need this extended PCT off androgel anyway, as you were not going to be completely shut down with the numbers you had on it (assuming once daily application and these labs were not trough).

    Post in thread 'Building a TRT protocol around hCG' Building a TRT protocol around hCG - ExcelMale Forum. TRT, Hormones, Peptides, Men’s Health Yes, because your E2 was still too high for you as an individual, even under 150 mg weekly. You needed to go lower still. Very simple decision tree...

    Also, on enanthate vs cypionate, there are some exceptions, but for most people, any difference between these very similar esters is undetectable. I would say the ester question is basically irrelevant in the face of your primary concern: levels that are much too high. Honestly, I would begin...

    Phil gave you great advice about the mental side of things. We could perhaps do more digging into your lifestyle and other factors that could have precipitated this, like use of caffeine / stimulants, stress, diet, etc. However, there is an obvious thing to do here, and deep down, you must...
