These are trough values. I haven't pulled labs mid-day after an injection to know. I probably should pull a lab a few hours post injection to see where I fall. To that point, my libido is normally highest in the morning, but many days it is high as well. Comparing Test-P and Test-C, I have...
I know there are many low SHBG posts and most are negative for the most part. I wanted to share some things that I have learned through some experimentation over the last 4 years seeking more libido that have helped me dial some things in to my current protocol:
19mg T-Proprionate ED
.25mg AI...
Lots of views on this. I assume this must be rare then. I definitely don't get a full natural erection and am surprised that many seem to. I definitely get a hard shaft but not everything else.
I've used Trimix and Bimix off and on for the last year. I see so many posts about the raging 18 year old erection that many get and I want to see if I am the only person with this particular issue. I get a very full corpus cavernosum and nothing in the way of a fill in my corpous spongiosum...
Thanks for this post, Kettlebells. Success stories are always great to read! For your Free T reading of 12.6, what was the range? My range has a top end of 18.1 ng/dl so that doesn't seem all that low in contrast to your low Total T. I am not a diabetic but have not responded well to PDE5...
I should also add that I have been feeling great but need to give this much more time to deem it successful. I've had peaks and valleys trying to dial in - this has just been the longest consecutive successful run so I think I am in the right direction at least.
I use a 30g pin. Hard to say on the differences between cypionate and propionate for me because my dosage changed at the same time. For now, I'm going to stick with Prop.
I mainly inject in my glutes. I inject HCG in my stomach but when I inject Test in my stomach it gets irritated and creates a lump. This was with cypionate as well. I don't experience any injection pain from propionate.
Yes, I've actually been doing this for a while. I do think it helps me but I've been up and down on higher doses of Test while using the cream. It definitely boosts my DHT.
I guess the main thing I am looking for guidance on is if Total T matters for low SHBG guys that have higher Free T? If ones Free T is on the higher end, are you losing anything just because Total T is lower?
Any other low SHBG guys feel better with a lower Total T? My current numbers are:
Total T: 428 ng/dl (240-950dl)
Free T: 14.1 ng/dl (4.65-18.1)
SHBG: 18
DHT: 653 pg/ml (112-955)
E2: 27 pg/ml (10-40)
I used to always be on the higher end of Total T and Free T was through the roof from higher...
ERO - I've seen number of your posts through the last few years with no results an I am hopeful this will continue to improve for you. I was curious, do you ever have moments of strong libido or even a few consecutive days? I'm just curious if it is no libido at all or bursts as I have been...
