Hi Vince! Thanks for your input - its nice to discuss this with someone. I no longer use AI at all - zero! For some time i used it very moderately (0,25mg twice a week), but I no longer do that.

Hi, In may I did blood tests. Results below. (I live in Norway by the way - so that is the reason if you consider the measures unusual). I do not have significant libido or strong erections. What could be the cause? Aprreciate input! B-Hemoglobin: 15.1 (13.5-16.5) B-EVF: 0.46 (0.41-0.51)...

Hi again and thanks for feedback! Good insights - cool! @Nashtide: what do you consider the minimum effective dose of HCG? I like to include hcg with testosterone because I feel much better, and without it my testicles shrink big time (not serious issue, but I do not like it either). Also, I...

Hi, Regarding the use of low doses of both HCG and Arimidex while on TRT - and long term effects. - Should you take breaks from HCG use or should it be used continually like testosterone? Is the issue of the Leydig cell becoimng de-sensitized an issue when using a low dose (ie 500 IUs twice a...

Thanks for the reply..... I will look at this and make some suggestions to the doctor. Perhaps this is all basic stuff to measure at a US clinic, but as I mentioned - TRT is a bit in the dark ages here.... As far as I know, Estradiol sensitive is very rarely measured in TRT in men in any...

Well, you might be right, ..... I guess I assumed that what should be measured in a basic blood test for TRT purposes are more or less the same regardless of my protocol and past blood work? I did not include past blood work because the proper tests are now so old that I think they are...

Hi, I live in Norway and TRT is in the dark ages here (due to "hormone-phobia" etc). Its a challenge to find a good doctor and proper help. Anyway, I recently changed my doctor because the previous one retired. I do not feel as good as I had hoped on my protocol now. My libido is low. What...

What is new with you? Any luck with your doctor? TRT is not easy in Norway - I am here too and it is a real challenge...

Even though this is the recommended dose, would it be possible/desireable to split this dose into weekly injections? For example 0,3 ml Aveed/Nebido pr. week? Personally I have done both. And I must say I do prefer a weekly injection with a small needle in the shoulder. The 4 ML injection of...

Hi Goga, Yes, you are right! Sorry about that - this medical jargon is confusing! @ Tommy. Yes I like that video and I really do hope to get a protocol like that. But there seems to be a different philosophy regarding TRT in Europe vs. the US. I think testosterone (enanthate or cypionate) and...

@ Tommy - I will look into that video later. I am still at work now. Yes, well I had hoped to use cypionate or enanthate, but I am not sure that is possible. That is what I mean by hormone-phobia. Doctors here seem to equate cypionate and enanthate with abuse of anabolic steroids (black and...

Hey Tommy, I am open to injecting twice a week for sure. Can you list Nelson's protocol? Or add a link? The new guy I am seeing is an endo. I will need to get a letter from my regular doctor to see him. The whole TRT business here in Norway is kinda crazy. Most doctors here have hormone-phobia...

Hi, Just a quick update here. I am currently reducing my AI a bit. I do 0,25 mg a week. I still do not feel right. I will have to do new bloodwork after the summer to find what the right way forward is. Other than this I recently visited a new doctor, since my current Endo is getting retired...

Your biggest issue is "ED"? What is ED? :-)

Yes, well - I think I might start with lowering the AI dose. Just to keep other variables constant, to see how that goes. Good info for sure. I had heard about the standart test vs the sensitive test, but had sort of forgotten about it.
