    TRT - whats normal

    It's on my 'wish list'. My urologist will prescribe but, now going on the third year, caring for my wife as her health declines. On just testosterone, most nights I get one erection but, for the future, want an erection that's reliable and will last for more than one round, like my younger days.

    Where to get Testosterone prescriptions?

    Call the urology department at Baylor, tell them where you're located and that you're looking for a urologist who prescribes TRT. I've read that Dr. Lipshultz prescribes 200 mg, weekly. If you feel good physically/mentally on your dose, labs and BP are in range, no problem. This isn't about...

    First post. Can’t get E2 under control, starting to worry

    That's good that they work with other pharmacies. I didn't find propionate as great as I'd read. For me, in general, with messed up sleep and circadian rhythms, I've found I get a better response with enanthate if I inject anywhere between noon and 6 p.m. When I was on cream, I took it in the...

    First post. Can’t get E2 under control, starting to worry

    The easiest way is to ask them. Send them an email. Also allergic or sensitive to BB/BA. They seem to use BA as the preservative in all their injectables. We get it; it's standardized for all their products and it's probably less expensive. But for one of the major compounding pharmacies in...

    Trt too high?

    Congratulations! How long(weeks/months) once you brought down your dose, did libido and erectile function improve? I've been all over the place with dosing for years and now just tired of TRT. Living with untreatable bipolar, mostly depression and caring for my wife. For the foreseeable...

    Giving Testosterone in Cottonseed oil a try?

    Cottonseed oil was used extensively in snack food because, decades ago, everytime I ate potato chips, I'd get a mild headache, feel vaguely sick and have loose stools. I learned of it being a significant allergen from reading(before the Internet, LOL). Similar reactions when I began with Test...

    My TRT Odyssey: Lab Results and More

    Dr. Rand McClain starts all patients, if I'm correct, on a weekly injection of 200 mg and 1 mg of anastrozole. From a clinical perspective, easier to manage patients on the same protocol, then adjust as needed, though 1 mg of anastrozole gives people pause in the 'no ai, ever' realm. Then you...

    Trt too high?

    I'm just commenting after listening to a webinar on YouTube by Dr. Neil Rouzier. He doesn't try, he says, to control E2. A question was asked; If a patient isn't responding to a given dose of testosterone(and he prescribes compounded cream) what does he do? He said raise the dose. The follow...

    Trt too high?

    Yes, regardless of what dose you use, drop the ai. 'Natural levels' implies that you knew what your level was before libido and erections declined. Most of us don't know what endogenous levels we had when we were young(or younger) and sexual function was fine. Not just testosterone but DHEA...

    try dose

    Your doctor is more concerned, wrongly, of losing his medical license, than of helping a patient. I add my opinion that you need a new primary. As for testosterone, if you can afford it, go with a testosterone clinic unless you can find a urologist experienced in TRT.

    20mg Cialis daily?!?

    IIRC, 20 mg, daily, for men who've undergone a nerve sparing prostatectomy.

    Denied Rx at ShopRite

    Thanks. Just finished reading it. The DEA operates without oversight. Psychedelics might have been part of psychiatric medicine if not for Nixon's War On Drugs and the DEA. You know that members of Congress and the Senate who either need, or have family members who need ADHD medicine, are...

    Denied Rx at ShopRite

    I'm in Cape Canaveral. Publix is the major grocery and pharmacy chain in FL. I use Test E and I always get my refills, usually a day or two after calling it in. Maybe once or twice I encountered a delay of a week because it was backordered. ShopRite is a big chain in NJ. Aside from...

    My questions, too, and agree with @Frizzle; you're experimenting the right way; posting labs and what you're experiencing.
