You could be onto something and may have found a solution. Only one way to find out and that's seeing what happens.

I have been thru this game so many times when making changes and then things baseline again. Whenever I deviate (add deca/go to 300mgs of test weekly) from my TRT protocol of 80mg test cyp + 250iu HCG E3.5days my libido suffers. Within 2 weeks of being back on my TRT protocol I am back in the...

I aspirate every time. No blood came into the syringe and this still happened.

I use short needles. 1/2 inch insulin needles and try to depress the skin to go IM. I do this to avoid wasting medication. I'm wondering if switching to deep IM as in 1 inch in the quad or 1.5 in the glute would reduce the chances of this happening. It comes at the expense of post injection...

The compounders really are nowhere near the Pharma brands. 2 bottles ago I received a vial from a compounder in Texas called Thousand Oaks and the vial crashed every time. I had to reheat the vial every single time to dissolve the crystals. Good UG labs probably do a better job.

Here's what I did. I started TRT w/a clinic 14 months ago and dialed in my protocol. I then went to my urologist of 10+ years and explained my protocol to him and asked him to take over my care. He asked me if it is working and if I "feel better" and said sure thing and now my testosterone...

Honestly I would do whatever you can to continue with the pharmacy brand, and avoid the compounders bc now you will always have the question in the back of your mind.

That e2 really doesn't seem so low but everyone is different. I have had e2 from 17 (using 1/8 tab adex e3.5 days) to 35 (using no adex) and I couldn't tell any difference. This was with trough TT ranging from 770 to mid 900s and FT of 25-30. I've even had e2 as low at 4 when I was using...

I spoke with my doctor and he though it was the result of alcohol in my lungs (meaning something must have gotten into a vein). His suggestion was to let the alcohol on the top of the vial dry (this is a braindead response but I guess he had to say it), but I'm leaning more towards oil in the...

Is this most likely the problem?

I have been on TRT for well over a year now. I recently received testosterone from Hallendale pharmacy and used the vial for the first time. I had been using another pharmacy that had a sesame oil preparation and empower for awhile as well... basically whatever my clinic sent to me. My first...

I take 80mg of test cyp e3.5 days (Mon morning and Thurs afternoon) = 160mg per week. I USED to take 250iu of HCG once weekly Subq Wednesday morning. I have been for some time doing Nelson's method of 250iu with my injections IM so now twice weekly in the same syringe as the testosterone. I...

This happened to me 7 years ago before any sort of testosterone therapy. It was 8am and I was having my first cigarette of the morning (and the last of my life). I finished and was walking up the street in NYC and all of the sudden my vision started to go and I felt like I was going to pass...

I seem to be sleeping worse. Not sure if it is related.

How can you tell the HCG is losing potency by feel? This seems really subjective.
