    Wanting to change from compounded T-cream to injections

    My post above shows where we are presently. It will be complicated by moving back to NZ in a few weeks for a year and a half approximately this time. But, please keep us posted on how you situation comes out and I'll do the same. I spent a day and a half researching the transference issue and...

    Wanting to change from compounded T-cream to injections

    Just as a followup to my original post about the wife's T going through the roof. Just got her 2 week retest and us being insanely careful. She even got her own shower mat so she doesn't stand on the same shower floor that I do shows her T now down to 38 and 1.8 respectively. Well within the...

    Wanting to change from compounded T-cream to injections

    Well, my wife's DHEA, fasting insulin and CRP were all within her range and all toward the low end of the range. She is going to retest in 2 weeks and see if it is still going down. Obviously, her T levels above 150 is what has us worried, for all the reasons you mentioned. Dr. also said she...

    Wanting to change from compounded T-cream to injections

    Yes, she was previously on a cream and they wanted it higher and went to the oral, not high enough, doubled the dosage, and it went down further. Of course at the same time her estrogen went down substantially and her T shot way up. So right now, not sure what any of the numbers mean. Her doc...

    Wanting to change from compounded T-cream to injections

    So she is still elevated after 7+ weeks? Wow. My wife's dropped 20+ points in a week and we basically have her in a bubble. One of the people who do our blood work said they have seen several women picking up T while while working out at the gym from the equipment. So, she is working out at home...

    Wanting to change from compounded T-cream to injections

    Does anyone know how long it would take T to clear from her system totally if it was from my cream? Found a bunch of stuff online indicating it would take 5 days from last application for a male to return to background. Also found a study where a small child was accidentally virilized and she...

    Wanting to change from compounded T-cream to injections

    Her ranges (Labcorp) are 3-41ng/Dl serum and 0-4.2 Free. She also is on 200mg Progesterone/day orally, but her levels declined there also. E2 way down and Prg down somewhat in spite of her Dr. doubling her dose a couple months ago.

    Wanting to change from compounded T-cream to injections

    Ok, thanks for that Vince. I am new to all this. Is the standard the 200mg/ml vials I see on some the internet sites? All I'm looking for is the the actual T delivered in the dose, so a quarter ml would be the starting point? Is there any reason, other than the obvious volume of injection, to...

    Also, she is 51 yo and we've been dealing with perimenopause the last few years. Her latest labs show her E2 just above the post menopausal level, so she's about there they say.

    Wanting to change from compounded T-cream to injections

    Ok, thanks. I kind of figured that. Just mainly looking for a starting point... My problem is leaving US for NZ for the next year and a half in six weeks. Maybe I'll just wait till I get there to address it. Her historical (2009-2015) levels T-serum were 22-45, 58 in 2016 and 2 weeks ago her...

    Wanting to change from compounded T-cream to injections

    Hi there, first post, I have been on compounded T-cream for about 8 or 9 years and I'm 60 yo. My wife just spiked a 400% increase in her T level on her annual blood test, assuming maybe transference. We thought we were always careful, but after a lot of reading, I see that it isn't that...

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
