    1st lab Results since beginning TRT- High prolactin

    Thank you both for responding to my question. He didn't include prolactin with my initial labs but did on the follow up. I'm sure out of caution because of how low my t's were. He compared to levels found in an 80 year old man and hadn't seen it that low for someone my age in quite some...

    How does one differentiate between gynecomastia and non-gyno nipple growth/sensitivity on TRT?

    Mine are doing the same thing. It reminds me of how they felt when I went through puberty many, many years ago. I don't feel any mass under them, so I'm hopeful its just part of the process. Lab work came back today and my estrogen sensitive is only 12. I commented to share my experience and...

    Also, I'm very happy with the improvements with my cholesterol. I hope to be able to stop taking that dreaded statin one day.

    1st lab Results since beginning TRT- High prolactin

    Hi Guys, Today I received a copy of my labs taken on Monday, 12 weeks after beginning my TRT. I am taking 0.8 t-cyp, once a week. The labs were taken the morning of my 12th injection, before the injection. Also, I was fasting for the blood work. My testosterone, serum went from 109 pre-TRT...

    body hair growth

    I am so glad to see this posting. The first thing I've noticed since beginning my injections is that I've recently had to begin shaving daily. I've been able to skip a day or 2 for years but this has come to an end. I'll embrace this side effect in order to have an improved quality of life.

    How to decrease HIV related belly fat accumulation

    Thank you Nelson. There is no way she'll prescribe either. I'm going to add HCG and I'm looking into metformin. On the advice of my infectious disease physician, I now have a PCP. On my first appointment with him just last week, he said the belly is from the meds. He's young, knowledgeable...

    Thank you Nelson. My total cholesterol is 183, triglycerides are 138, HDL is 54, VLDL is 28 and LDL is 101. I am currently taking Atorvastatin 40mg every night before bed. My fasting blood glucose is always under 100 except this last time it was 107. When I was on Crixivan is really when the...

    How to decrease HIV related belly fat accumulation

    Thanks for all of this information. Having been positive for 16+ years, reduction of lipodystrophy is one of my goals. I'm assuming HCG could have an impact with this since it is in the thread? Dr. Saya recommended it but I just wanted to address my low testosterone first. I'm not really...

    Anyone else with super low T? 107 low?

    Also, my LH is low at 1.3. And I was mistaken, my T is 109 and not 107, but that is still very low. My Free Testosterone(direct) is 3.4 which is low as well. I'm using Dr. Saya at Defy Medical to treat my low T. I'll ask about this as well. Thank you both for responding to my question.

    Anyone else with super low T? 107 low?

    I haven't used those and from what I can see on my lab results, that wasn't a part of the test. I'm going to contact Dr. Saya with Defy tomorrow and ask about that. Thank you for asking.

    Anyone else with super low T? 107 low?

    Anyone else diagnosed with testosterone level of 107 like me? The doctor said my level, including free-t was that of an 80 year old man and I'm 44. I know it takes time for results to be noticed and I'm only on week 2 of TRT injections, but I'm curious to know how your experience was if your T...

    Is there an ideal time of day for your testosterone injection?

    I'm on my 2nd week of TRT and chose Sunday as my weekly injection day. However, does it matter what time of day I inject? First thing in the morning? Last thing before going to bed? Right before the gym? Any research on this or thoughts? Thanks!

    New to the form and TRT

    Thanks Nelson! I re-read your book, Testosterone-A Man's Guide, and googled you, so that's how I found out about this. I love your knew site. I reached out to you a few years ago and I debated traveling from New Orleans to Houston for a doctor who treats men with low testosterone. I'm so...

    Defy Medical

    Since I couldn't find a doctor in New Orleans to treat my low-T, I decided to utilize Defy. I've been very impressed with their high level of professionalism, VERY impressive customer service, and the fact they are serious as you have to see your local physician on a regular basis in order for...
