    Switch to IM from SQ? Lower E2? Sleep, digestion, maybe lower Free T...

    What makes you think lowering your estradiol wil solve the issues you're having? If anything, I would only raise your T dose and see what happens. But there are so much more variables to consider: diet, stress, sleeping habits...

    Dr. Thierry Hertoghe

    Thierry Hertoghe is overrated. He isn't up to date on the current, modern trt-practices. He prescribes test E injections every 2-3 weeks and an AI to anyone above the range of estradiol. I have a friend who's currently living in Belgium who went to the Hertoghe Clinic. He told me the Hertoghe...

    NMR blood test thoughts?

    Is your crp raised? Are you insulin resistant? If not, I wouldn't worry about it. Your cardiologist has been taught to be scared of high cholesterol without even understanding what's behind it.

    Been on trt for 2 years and still no libido ..# libido

    Edit: I've looked into oral estrogens since my post below. Dr. Rouzier prescribes oral estradiol because they provide cardiovascular protection through the first pass metabolism that transdermal estradiol does not, however doing so raises the risk for venous thrombosis (0,008% of the cases). I...

    Been on trt for 2 years and still no libido ..# libido

    Wait...so your total T was more than 3x the upper limit? How much after injection was this taken? How often did you inject hcg? Oral estradiol is not a good idea to raise E2 (estradiol). Most of it will be converted to estrone (E1). The half-life is also too short causing your E-levels to rise...

    Been on trt for 2 years and still no libido ..# libido

    200mg test-e per week is a very big dose to start with. You're not a 'hyper-responder' when your T skyrockets with such a high dose. Your new doctor doesn't seem much better than your old one. What is your full protocol of what you are/were taking and for how long did you stick to this...

    Are empty sterile vials ordered online safe?

    @madman The reason I don't like preloading insulin syringes is because they aren't meant to keep oils. Insuline syringes are coated to reduce the speed of the plunger while injecting. If you let oil rest for a few days in a syringe it will absorb this coating. It will also absorb chemicals from...

    Are empty sterile vials ordered online safe?

    I live in Europe and I can only get glass ampoules of 250 mg test-e or sustanon in the pharmacy. I don’t like the idea of preloading syringes for multiple days because of the benzene alcohol eating at the rubber plunger or the medication absorbing EDC’s in the plastic. To split my dose I’d...

    I replace all my hormones. Here is what I learned.

    Interesting! On what information did you base your intake schedule for cortisol? I'm currently on 30mg HC, 20mg at 7:00 am and 10mg at 12:00 with decent, but still suboptimal results (too high in the morning, crash in the evening). Splitting in more dosages seems like it would mimic the body's...

    Help me create a Hydrocortisone treatment

    If you're going to take any exogenous cortisones on a continuous base, you should always take DHEA to balance it with. if you're taking exogenous cortisones to fight adrenal fatigue, you shouldn't worry about reducing your body's own cortisol production, as this is the whole point of cortisol...
