I see where your going with that. But wouldn't higher e2 mean less urinating? I figured more fluid retention. Plus I would think my e2 would be rising while taking testosterone.

May have found the solution to the problem. Kinda gross but feeling constipated lately. Drank some fiber drink last night, cleaned out my system this morning and made a big difference. Time will tell.

Yes. This for sure. I urinate way more now but it's a normal amount if not more. I still might swing by the doc if it continues. My guess is I'm just adjusting to it all but it's super annoying.

Main thing I'm worried about is prostate but I can't imagine after just one injection having that much effect on the prostate the first week.

My e2 was 12 when I first started. Testosterone was 256. Not using an AI yet. No signs of e2 rising. Can't imagine it would get lower on the e2 after TRT. If anything it should rise some.

So I've started TRT and on my third week. Having this one issue only. I'm constantly urinating. Like almost every hour more or less. It's a normal amount, no problems starting or stopping. I'm also taking T3 for hypothyroidism. Don't know if this is from testosterone or T3? Started both the...

Does the 3 month follow up include same labs as first labs or just cbc, and testosterone, levels?

I just recently started with defy. Got the thyroid panel as well due to TSH being high. Glad I did. Now on T3 and testosterone cyp. First week out my blood pressure has significantly lowered and consistent. Not sure if it's the testosterone or T3 or both but it's good either way.

Just paid and scheduled the initial consultation. After the appointment do I order the meds for my protocol then and pay over the phone for the 3 month supply? It's in a couple of weeks. Just wondering..

Thanks guys. I made the initial consultation with defy today. It will be in a couple of weeks.

Yeah it did come across as pretty harsh. It's just based on the forums I've read from. Maybe they were exaggerating to some degree. One guy I know had a incompetent physician that had no idea what he was doing and had him on one injection every two weeks. So anyways I'll be going through a...

So I've pretty much gotten all my preliminary work done. Labs, physical etc.... Just need some honest answers. I'm 42 and have a two year old daughter. Married as well. Both of us work full time jobs, normal stress of life...all that jazz. My biggest concern right now with crossing this bridge...

3.2 for free T3. Antibody was <1.0, TPO was 24. Free T4 was 1.23

Thyroid results are in. Everything normal ranges except reverse T3. Is 24.3. Just barely over.

Ok guys, just did lab work today for the full thyroid panel. Will be interesting to see the results. I'm really wanting to see if the reverse t3 is high.
