Alright cool! How do I put an order in with them exactly?

Stress wouldn't surprise me. While hiking today it got worse, and it was a pretty hefty climb. Concentration is the same between the bottles, but it's odd that Perrigo switches bottles between a clear one and a brown one (with different tops on them). I was asking my NP about HCG, and turns out...

I was out hiking today, saw your post, and it gave me some time to think of anything remotely different recently. Here goes: Was in Europe (3 month trip) until 2nd week of May, drank a lot of beer in Germany Had to move out of NYC apartment when I returned, landlord was (as usual) being super...

Just seems so odd that it happened very suddenly. Had it progressed over the last year, it would make more sense as just atrophy and all that - to be expected after a few years. The trouble peeing seems directly correlated with this penis length/girth shrinkage. With the testicle size, I have...

Hey all, I don’t come by here much these days as my protocol has been pretty spot on. 154mg T cyp a week, EOD when I travel for long periods, and ED when I’m at home. Haven’t needed Cialis in forever, and the lady is quite happy. Recently (like in the last couple of weeks), my scrotum has...

I’m almost out of Empower t cyp and my new urologist fills my script with Perrigo. Mine is manufactured by Hikma specifically. I’m wondering if I should keep my dose the same or plan to adjust. Any experiences?

Thanks Madman, really helpful post as always. I've heard mixed things about HCG and hunger as well as water weight gain. It seems to be unrelated to estrogen, and that it does go away. Regardless, I'm having some issues with anxiety and insomnia on HCG as well and will probably just go back to...

Has anyone else experienced weight gain on HCG? I'm also on an antidepressant known for weight gain (Nardil) but I've been fine mysteriously until the day I started HCG recently. Suddenly had tons of food cravings and put on a few pounds (which I suspect is water but who knows).

4 days in. Insomnia building up, and some anxiety. Going to stick with it a bit longer and see how it goes - unfortunately this is pretty much what happens every time I've tried HCG :/

Oh man, I wish I'd read about this sooner. I didn't realize it was such a drain on ferritin. I've never had elevated blood markers, but just felt it was a good way to keep them in check while doing some good. Think I'm going to hold off on donating for a bit and then limit it to just a few...

I donate every couple months - as much as they'll let me. Whole blood. Going today actually! I'm waiting to get another TT/FT test back now to see if the last one was accurate. I've never seen my E2 so low for such a high TT so I'm questioning it.

appreciate this reply a ton. I just want to maintain fertility. I’d prefer to avoid any accidents until we’re ready though.

I've always gotten the best symptom relief over 30 FT I've noticed. But when I start pushing it past 40, I notice I get really moody. My bloodwork still comes back good though. I do donate blood regularly too to keep this in check. It's tough for me to titrate to symptoms with HCG as I really...

Thanks for the post Madman. I've heard about this in a Youtube video, that new research is showing smaller doses may work just as well for keeping the testicals alive. I wouldn't mind that in an effort to keep mine from producing sperm yet - I'm still a few years away from having kids and...

I'm trying to have my levels retested today. I feel well, so I don't want to drop them aggressively like I have in the past. Thing is, months ago I was at a nice 800 TT off the same dose.
