    hCG no longer increasing testicular size

    Hi Guys, ok, great feedback thanks! Yes, I was really hoping that they would get BIGGER than pre-TRT as they were small to begin with! :( ha ha When I started hCG they got firmer, bigger and ached a bit... I guess that means they are working... Like Gene said, at least they are alive! ha ha...

    hCG no longer increasing testicular size

    Hi Guys, I'm taking 200 IUs of hCG EOD and to start with I noticed a big improvement in testicuar size and firmness. However now after almost a month, they don't seem to be growing/increasing in size any more. I think by most standards they are still quite small. Is this normal? Indicate...

    Fertility - Restart?

    Sorry to be more specific, I felt horrible when going off T (Nebido) as that's called "testosterone undecanoate" - long slow release and very suppressive of natural hormone production. Basically I had NO testosterone for 5-6 months... the feeling of that isn't great. My system did recover enough...

    Fertility - Restart?

    My endo made me wait 6 months, since my last T injection, to see if my body would recover naturally. OMG, what a fkn horrible experience.

    Doctor is suggesting bio DIM in place of Arimidex

    I tried DIM, didn't do anything to lower my levels. Yet when I tried Arimidex, only two 1 x 1mg, my levels crashed to below 50 in one week. I'm going to review with my next bloods and perhaps take 0.5mg per week if she's come back up.

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.
