Seems the most important ratio would be DHT to E2. However, I have never looked at my DHT levels and have no idea how accurate any of this is.

@RobRoy I have always heard in bodybuilding circles that is the amount of testosterone you use is directly related to how high your E2 can be and not have side effects. So it is a 20:1 ratio of testosterone to E2 and a 2:1 ratio of DHT to E2. So let's say you have a 1000-2000 serum test, you...

Old trick.....if the product goes out of solution, place it in a pan of hot water until everything dissolves. If that doesn't do the trick, take the product back to where you bought it and get a refund.

A meat only diet is not Keto, Keto is high fat.. Proteins are a source of gluconeogenic substrates and can be used to produce glucose under fasting or a low-carbohydrate intake. According to two of the leading experts on the keto diet, Dr Stephen Phinney & Dr. Jeff Volek: 10% or less carbs...

Here is the full study Seems this study adequately covered the strengths and problems with the Keto diet. One issue in the Discussions, However, the current study found that peak power only increased in the WD and not KD from weeks 1-10. Following a one-week reintroduction of carbohydrates...

Amen!

I previously posted about 3-4 studies that stated the dangers of this therapy. It seems to be seemingly worthwhile for people who have compromised breathing but otherwise the risk are there. All the studies added that exercise would have done just as well. This is why I guess you need to have...

I've got to add this. It comes from the international Society of Hypertension posted on the American Family of Physicians web site: https://www.aafp.org/pubs/afp/issues/2021/0615/p763.html A recent review of the Cochrane Study...

If you do a search, at one point in time I posted research to back this saturation dose claim. Ipamorelin is a different animal. I have always suggested that 500mcg of Ipa is the minimum you use. I know guys that get good results at 1000mcg.

Here is another interesting study about testosterone and behavior. Introduction The effect of testosterone (T) on behavior, and in particular aggression, has received considerable attention over the last decade [1], [2], [3], [4]. This has been prompted by several developments. Firstly, the...

No. I know a doctor who posts on another board who tested this theory. There was absolutely no diminishing effect between eating or not eating after using peptides.

I am having a hard time understanding why you titled this thread "Use of growth hormone." Here is a list with pictures of the 21 best natural bodybuilders. You will not get like this in a few weeks. This take a huge amount of time and dedication...

Seems this video explained it pretty well.......beef protein is essentially the “throw away” parts of the cow… their joints, ligaments, hide, ears etc. (Basically all the parts you end up with after the butcher is finished). Whey is a dairy product, made from milk. I personally think if you...

I have to take Metoprolol Succinate (beta -blocker). I was having bouts of tachycardia/a-fib, 3-4 times a year. I take 50mg in the AM and 75mg at PM mostly because my heart seemed to be racing between 2am and 4am. So far this has completely stopped the tachycardia/a-fib. My sleeping heart...

@Doug, I can assure that that advice the CDC give to only use a vial 1 time is stupid. ALL testosterone no matter what ester is made with Benzyl alcohol which is used as a bacteriostatic preservative. You will be fine.

Seems like this stuff effects us all individually. I can't tolerate 25mg very well and I know a guy who regularly uses 50mg. I have 10mg pills which I tolerate much better. I honestly have my doubt about GH causing hypertrophy. There is very little evidence evidence to support an anabolic...

Have to agree with you Sammy. My wife wanted to give this flibanserin a try years back when it hit the market and it did absolutely nothing.

One of the studies I looked at used 20mg/d for 12 weeks.

Yea, the doctor I mentioned does some of his stuff while you are awake. YIKES! Good luck to you too!

The problem I have is my insurance company dictates what pharmacy I can use...CVS. I am not going to be price gouged by paying cash to use a compound pharmacy and have a hard time rationalizing why I should pay more for a product I can easily get through UG connections that are 1/4 the price...

I saw Wasserman back in 2016, right after my family doctor found the DDD. I took Wasserman the x-rays and he confirmed it. He told me just keep keep the muscles strong and when the pain got hard to deal with, come back and see him. He would then refer me to a pain management clinic. He did...

***....about 3 years ago I tried that, expensive and worthless. I did purchase a medication called Ketorolac, which is a very strong NSAID seems to help some but it has a black box warning not to take more than 5 days in a row. So I take it once a week.

Amen. I fight going to the gym because of pain. But once I get there I am OK because the pain seems to just go away. I live off Celebrex, Ibuprofen and Tylenol. Sleep is the hard part. Not only does my back hurt but both shoulders hurt worse. I was told that I would now when it is time to...

Thanks for all the advice @t_spacemonkey. I really do appreciate it. I am lost for what to do. I know now I can not do the typical pain therapy with an epidural. I have done stretching exercises for years now, every kind of pain medication except opiates. Nothing has helped. I can't work...

@Weasel apparently there is something called endoscopic surgery. This is a minimal invasive surgery that can be done to fix this issue. All I have to do is find someone who does it and my insurance will cover them. Nelson suggested someone who looks great but my insurance does not have him...

Abstract Background Adding testosterone to hormonal therapy could improve sexual function and general well-being among women during climacteric. We evaluated the effectiveness of testosterone undecanoate on sexual function in postmenopausal women utilizing the standardized questionnaire FSFI...

@testiculus, I found it fascinating too. Bodybuilders have been saying for a long time that 3g/lb/bw weight is the minimum for optimal growth and nutritionists have been yelling how that is not needed and will cause kidney issues. Take a look at the LIMITATIONS of the study: Apparently 100g...

I guess bodybuilders who eat huge amounts of protein have been right all along. So much for the 20g of protein bro science. Jorn Trommelen, Glenn A.A. van Lieshout, Jean Nyakayiru, Andrew M. Holwerda, Joey S.J. Smeets, Floris K. Hendriks, Janneau M.X. van Kranenburg, Antoine H. Zorenc, Joan...

Well, I got dropped from the trial. They feel because I take Eliquis, it would be very risky for me to come off long enough to do a spinal injection. I kind of figured that might come up. So back to the drawing board.

"Following intramuscular administration of 750 mg testosterone undecanoate, serum testosterone concentrations reached a maximum after a median of seven days (range of four to 42 days), which then slowly declined. The mean (SD) Cmax was about 90.9 (68.8) ng/dL on the fourth day following...
