I had another test and my PSA is down to 2.1. I've done even more research and have just this week re-started TRT at a cautious pace. I have historically very low SHBG. Through research here and other places, having low T, low Free T, low SHBG, low E2, and low DHT, can be just as symptomatic...

Do you happen to have Low SHBG?

Hi there. I finished the course of antibiotics and had really good results with it. I felt great and most of the symptoms went away. I did my first PSA test about three weeks after finishing the last course of antibiotics and it went down to about 2.8. I have another one coming up here in a...

Thank you. I'm getting older now (47) and after having some other orthopedic issues, realized about 10 years ago that you are always your best advocate. No one else cares about your issues more than you. Tools like ChatGPT make research of these topics easier than ever. Your comment on PSA...

I was on TRT for about 10 years. About 2 years ago, I had a kidney stone that kicked off a long chain of events for me. I passed the 6 mm long x 2.5 mm wide stone after 3 weeks. About a month later, I kept having burning, hesitancy, yellow / chunky semen and urgency. The doctor gave me an...

Hi, sorry I missed this. i did it for 4 weeks. I had a 20 mg bottle, added 2.5 ml of bac water to it. That gives 8 mg / ml. I injected 0.25 ml every M-W-F for 4 weeks. Additionally, I have had amazing success so far with my latest round of antibiotics. I will post about that in another...

I used Prostamax and Vesilute for 6 weeks. Saw big improvements.

I tried a cycle, and saw major improvements in BPH and chronic prostatitis.

Did you ever try it? I am interested

I'll try to make this brief. 46 y/o I was on HCG + minor anastrozole therapy for 10 years. Never an issue. It started to grow ineffective. I started T Cyp slowly alongside HCG + anastrozole. Did this for about 4 months. Never felt quite right. I was having other issues related to a kidney...

I could not get my iron to increase through any protocols. I ended up changing my PPI medicine, taking less of it as well, and stopping TRT for now. My Ferritin is up around 100 after a few months. Once I get it to around 150, I am going to start TRT again and monitor my iron and ferritin...

This is exactly what I am seeing. My T crashed to 10 while injecting. I stopped T and started enclomiphene and my Ferritin is up to mid 50's after 2 months. I feel better with my Ferritin coming up, but will be stopping the enclomiphene shortly and can imagine that I am going to feel much...

With my Ferritin rising rapidly after stopping T injections, is there anything else I could do to raise T without taking T directly? A peptide? Anything else?

I wish that was my problem.

Interesting. I only look at Free T. My SHBG is super low so even at a current Total T of 250, Free T is 75-85 typically. If my Total T gets up to 900 for example, my Free T is usually over 300 which causes all sorts of issues. At 140 mg of T Cyp my Free T was about 600 with Free T at 200-225.
