    Kyzatrex Health Canada approval

    I'm looking forward to trying oral T to deal with my high HCT. Right now I've reduced my dose and increased frequency to EOD. Coming down from 57% to 54.9% at first blood test post change. My next draw is at the start of October so I hope to see the trend continue downward. However, my baseline...

    Kyzatrex Health Canada approval

    Do we understand the mechanism as to why the oral delivery methods do not result in the same rise in HCT as the IM injection pathway?

    Kyzatrex Health Canada approval

    Has anyone seen any updates on Kyzatrex approval by Health Canada? All I can find is approval was expected by the end of 2025 Q2 and we are closing in on Q4

    High HCT low iron

    The heart disease comment has nothing to do with iron and everything to do with my HCT being 57.5 currently.

    High HCT low iron

    So looks like I've made a rookie mistake here. I have reduced my dosage to 100mg a week, I think I'll try 3 times a week to reduce the peak TT and FT. If that doesn't bring it back in range I will reduce to 80mg. In the article you posted it says HCG derived testosterone increases are not...

My hemoglobin and red blood counts seems around the same or slightly lower then when I was at 53.5. I do have...

    High HCT low iron

    Hi, My labs just came back and surprise, I have high HCT 57.5 and low iron 8.5 umol/l from donating. Can someone explain to my why this can't be fixed with iron supplementation? Seems like the only thing that works is lowering your T dose. I'm only at 60mg twice a week. I feel no side effects...

    Ballpark free test trough limit

    Hi, I'm worried about getting into the high HCT, low ferritin cycle as I started with HCT at 50.5 before TRT. I know everything is individual but is there a ballpark limit to free T trough that you should try to avoid going above to control HCT? Thanks.

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.
