Lockout, if you didn't have a different name I would swear this is my blog! I am in exactly the same boat except I am in only 70mg a week. My numbers mimic yours almost exactly and my ferritin and iron are tanked. But my HH is over the top. And continues to rise. Getting frustrated with this...

I've been on it for about half of the time I've been on trt. I notice an even better sense of well being and other subtle improvements versus even HCG. I take controlled release tablet.

I feel for you. I'm 41 and started a few years ago. My levels were around 425 but I had every symptom. Doctor figured it was worth a shot. Went on and after two years realized it didn't fix what was wrong. Tried to restart my own production and failed. Went back on for a year. Tried another...

Most recent labs Hemoglobin 18.39 (13.6-18) High Hematocrit 56.91 (39.8-52) High Total Testosterone 810 (250-1100) Free Testosterone 191.2 (35-155) High I inject 3x a week for a total of 80 mg per week. Blood was taken the day after an injection. Pretty low dose, but with my Free T that...

Thanks to you both. great advice.

Serious question about my son. Does anyone know at what age you should start to check or be concerned about their hormonal development? From the time he was born he always appeared to be very underdeveloped in the genitalia department. Very small testicles and penis. I remember changing my...

Having been on benzos in the past and been through what Jasen mentioned, I would be more than willing to bet that the Clonazepam could be starting to cause issues. For years I only took mine once a day. Then I started having major panic attacks along with many other physical/mental issues...

I am also the king of anxiety and worry. I fretted over starting it, then I got worried about being on it, so I switched to creams, then I got worked up and tried to come off, then I didn't like the way I felt, then I went back on , and repeated the process. It is easy to second guess and...

I had a followup with my doc today and I asked him if he still thinks these shots work or if he has to say they do because he bought into the scam. He said he has personally had two shots and his wife has told him he doesn't need to do it again because the results have been almost too much...

anyone use the injectable form? (magnesium sulfate). I'm going to give it a try from Defy medical. Even supplementing 800 mg only gets my Magnesium RBC levels right at the bottom of the range. Not sure if I have absorption issues, but figure the injections might be better.

Magnesium glycinate causes me zero intestinal issues and I dose 800 mg a day.

I think i recall seeing that it can take a month or two to see a reduction in H&H from any changes since it takes that long to clear out the cells. Mine elevated while on HCG mono as well. Makes me think maybe I had low T for a reason haha. Maybe my body knew better. anyway, donate seems...

Hcg alone will only restart your testicles if they have been shut down by trt. But it suppresses the pituitary. So after the testicles are back online you have to stop the hcg and add in a SERM like clomid or nolvadex or both. They stimulate the pituitary to produce LH and FSH if you are lucky...

From a numbers standpoint based on the elevated levels of LH and FSH it appears you have primary hypogonadism, ie failure at the testicular level. TRT seems like a wise choice. Will let someone chime in if those numbers could indicate something that should be looked at. Good luck on the trt!!

In my experience my blood gets thick no matter what dose I am on. You may mess up your system by going up and down on doses with no impact on h and h. From what I have seen most people just donate. I'm also trying the grapefruit eating every day to see if that has any merit.
