Sorry you going through this. I had a similar issue with TRT a year or so ago but my HC and HGB were perfect and barely went higher while on. Mind you I was very lean when starting, no drinking, no coffees, great, smart nutrition, perfect hydration, etc, etc. And still my great BP started...

Thats because your Doc is out to lunch. Yes Haemochromatosis is bad and depends on what genes you have and at what rate you load iron into organs. Like I said with your #'s I would def get a DNA test like Ancestry, then download raw DNA data and upload to checkiron.com algo to see if you have HH...

Also with such "Iron Panel" #'s I would def run DNA genetic test to see if you are not loading Iron and/or have Hemochromatosis which might be hereditary. Perhaps you have already done so and have your raw DNA data?

I'm all about minimizing chronic stress on the daily basis. If you need any advice just let me know. Have you done a 4pt Saliva Cortisol test to see how your adrenals are looking? I can tell you exactly what the best US adrenal docs are thinking and how they are managing it, given you have...

First time I hear this. Whats the source? Always knew walks after meals were beneficial. Guess will start squatting now lol

Yeah I've been looking for some time to get them but not sure with which ones to go as I spend a better part of the day watching screens for the last 25 years.

Sounds cheap for 10.000 FU

Must be a bit expensive considering this amount?

I never tested DHT due to it being expensive but now when I do full labs I will, including other markers, that are too expensive to run here in the UK. Some of the tests costs up to 5x the price compared to where I'm from. Pretty interesting to know current levels, won't lie.

What dose you on brother? Me and my girl ready to go long on NK as well.

Lmao it's a no-brainer! with such #s i would just forget about it and try to live as healthy as possible ticking all the other boxes. Easy money for you right there. I have to take 100mg/week to get me to 29 test. You good with with such solid #s. Probably could play with SHBG and E2 to see if...

Better then ever brother, Thank You! Glad to see you back and hope you're killin' it as well! Been very busy and 100% tunnel vision so not much time on the forum lately;)

Same. Always.

You can't out train a bad diet and it will eventually catch up with you. Use an app like Chronometer, reverse engineer your diet, and input all your daily food and check if you meet the required amounts of minerals and vitamins. Then training 7 days per week is def not optimal and should...

Exactly that. Plus genetics to open another can of worms. For many years I tried a lot of combinations under the sun but with marginal success. Done genetics this year and now I have a better understanding why.

I agree with you as well and wish everyone nothing but great health and success. Humans have evolved to survive eating meat, also humans have evolved to survive eating plants as well. Two different spectrums. Humans are amazing, yet I understand that everyone is unique and different, and that is...

Spot on. I have so much to say but I'm keeping quite as don't want to get involved as these discussions never go anywhere. There is just too many nuances to parrot one way of eating or another. Do whatever you think is best for you but always use critical thinking, always. And never ever forget...

OP, have you done your DNA test by any chance? I'd def recommend doing one and analysing raw DNA data. I'm absolutely sure you will uncover something usefull along the way. No doubts about that, at all. We all are different with different genetic mutations, polymorphisms, etc. So IMO it def pays...

I had a bottle of DIM long time but never used it. Yesterday popped 100mg. What dose you on @BadassBlues ? How long u've been on? Also no hair shedding as I've read some folks get that. Im not on TRT but interested in its effects.

Upload your raw dna file to checkiron.com and join same name FB group. This is the most advanced up-to-date algo to check for HH and inflamations around it. The main guy behind this great project is a smart physician/PHD and really helpful if you ask and share your results. Just one thing to...

Everyone who got raw DNA data run it through checkiron.com algorithm. Preferably from AncestryDNA as it tests more HH types compared to 23andMe. The guy who runs it also has a FB group and is very smart and helpful. Its more Haemochromatosis and inflamation related but I'm sure you will find...

I'm a very active and an athlete. Well at least for the last close to 20 years. I tried Carnivore for 30 days but couldn't make it work( tried because digestive issues). Well it did work for digestion but 0 carbs, coupled with other sides I was having, made me feel like a complete hot pile of...

I have a big journal/thread if you do a search on my username where I've documented all my TRT journey. Stopped because of different side effects. Was on 100mg/week split E3.5D for 3-4 months and then the remaining 8-9 months was trying higher and lower to find a sweetspot where I get least...

Absolutely it can. When I was running 250mg/week(not TRT) for training purposes, did that for 3 years straight, I was having damn headaches pretty much everyday. But I also had other blood markers elevated that showed I had issues going on that needed fixing and most likely was the cause or...

Def should try to ditch the bread and incorporate white potatoes or something like white rice, depending which one you digest better. Potatoes are more beneficial as they are high in potassium, fiber, etc, which is crucial for a lot of things and IMO the RDA is just a minimum. I personally love...

Absolutely spot on. Couldn't even put it out better so Thank You. Stress can aboslutely kill you. I chatted with a lady that lived with her toxic mother and the chronic stress made her collapse in the kitchen one day. She had low cortisol and nearly died. Managed to push through but has to do...

Agreed but not everyone can change their life situation and not everyone should even be touching TRT let alone take drugs to counter its side effects when in reallity a high % of people never needed it in first place. I will rest my case here and will just wish good luck to those who struggle.

You have a fair point as well. But lets not forget that even doing all the supplement regime and cardio regime there are other things that influence like stress. And some of us can't mitigate current stress for various different reasons and then no matter what you do things won't get better...

Yo brother. Remember, he might be one of the unlucky ones that no matter what he does he will never get that BP in good range and even if it does it will require so much from him that he will get exhausted from all that and will just hang the gloves. Some just can't handle any AAS even with...

Ah man thats a terrible feeling and there are a lot of guys who get sides from as low as 30mg of T. Plenty of them in the Taeians Clarks Deca only HRT group on the FB. I hope you overcome that damage and that is not permanent but I know the feeling. Since I got off cold-turkey about 8 months ago...

All sounds good except the BP. This is the number 1 thing to work on IME. My BP is always great, I feel relaxed, cool and calm but on TRT my BP spikes and I start getting a myriad of issues I won't even go on about it here. I have Telmisartan, Nebivolol but decided to not take any. This is the...
