    High Hematocrit - Off TRT

    Can you guys recommend a couple of good Drs in Houston TX that are knowledgeable about TRT and how to manage these side effects?

    High Hematocrit - Off TRT

    Daily injections..... that’s a hell of commitment. I did not try that. I guess if I prepare them on a weekly basis I could just quickly inject when I get up. Still one massive commitment. I’m in my late 40s so that’s a lot of pinning....

    High Hematocrit - Off TRT

    Yes at this point lab work and Dr visits seem to point at T for higher BP and HCT. Since I stopped injecting BP is back down to almost normal (125/82) and HCT mid 40’s. Just like it was before I started TRT. But let me ask, when you lost the first 60lbs, did your total and free T go up...

    High Hematocrit - Off TRT

    Ok I was diagnosed with Low T about five years ago. Short story is I had most symptoms, but mostly very low energy. My numbers were around 200 ng/dL. I started treatment with injections and adjusted everything but with time my HCT and blood pressure started to go up. I started to make blood...

    TRT: Not the Results I'd Hoped For

    My initial Estradiol was around 15. After three months of TRT it skyrocketed to 51 and that is when I started the AI. Also adjusted T down. Because of all of the sypmtoms I've also lowered my T dose again to what I described in the initial post. Is the blood pressure going up 10 to 15% also...

    TRT: Not the Results I'd Hoped For

    I’ll try to be brief but I am covering a lot. Not sure about treatment results and side effects. Before starting TRT I had T levels in the 220 ng/dL. I was feeling tired, had night sweats, and could not lose weight. Not being able to lose weight was/is consuming a lot of my mental health. I...

    IM/SubQ Injections

    Ok I'm a newbie at this so I have a couple of questions. I started last week injecting with 5/8" needles. 25g for T and 30g for HCG. Because of the length I assumed I was doing Subq injections. So first week I did them in the belly. Following week on the deltoid. This one hurt a bit more...

    What to do after failing to raise testosterone naturally

    Thanks for the responses. I'll respond to some of the questions and comments. I'm in Houston and I prefer to deal with someone local, but I'm looking into Defy Medical and will give them a call Monday to see what they have to say and how things work. I have checked my estradiol (not sure...

    What to do after failing to raise testosterone naturally

    Well I started looking around to get better educated and just decided to post my story to get some feedback from the community. I am a 42 yr old male that about five years ago started to notice a lack of energy and a loss of strength (comparing my old workout charts with current ones). I also...
