Another option might be to drop your T dose. It will keep your T in range (trough and peak) and drop your Hemocrit and E2.

Looking at this another way, the 1.6 g/kg/day of protein would put me at about 150 grams of protein per day. In today's world not that easy (seem like we are carb heavy today), but when I was growing up, we ate much more meat (like meat / eggs with every meal, jerky/nuts snacks). So for me I...

Lower dose, higher frequency lowered my E2 a bit Every 3 days - I also supplemented with zinc. Mine was 40 and dropped to 35 so not much but a bit. I was told that both numbers were ok.

lower your calories, increase your cardio/calorie burn rate. I also like sit-up or ab work outs to tone up the stomach. Part of it is fat and part of it is sag.

How much Anastrozole were you taking? Seems like this happens all the time, the E2 crash and continued issues.

Unrelated to sex issues, but may help people with IDB / Crohns. https://www.principesactifs.org/israeli-study-suggests-cannabis-relieves-crohns-disease/

https://www.anabolicmen.com/how-to-lower-shbg-naturally/ Disclaimer, I just saw this and thought I would post it. I don't know if it is good info or BS. Hopefully the experts can comment. I just got some blood work back. My T is, as always, right around 650. This is on about .35 ml...

What is a bigger threat to the US - A foreign country such as Russia or China, or the expanding national debt/interest payments?

I agree. There is great advice given on this forum regarding what to do, or what test to run, or that they they are fine and not to worry, but they don't give it up. Maybe a sticky (like we need another) that helps them understand that they are displaying possible IAD. Sometimes it does help...

+1 That is what I mix with the egg protein powder. The main downside to the Orgain is it has a lot of 'gum' that makes it thick, a bit too much for me.

Sounds like another name for hypochondria. I wonder why they renamed it? Maybe they want to call everything a disorder to keep it uniform. To me, it does not sound like anxiety at all. It sounds more like the people believe they have an illness when they don't, or that they are sicker than...

Is this a powder? Or supplement? If so, what do you recommend?

Really? I have this at home and I can not use it because the taste is so bad. Everyone is different I guess. It looked good on paper but the taste . . .

Steve, watch how much Vit. C you take or start slow. It can cause diarrhea for some at high doses. Also, it is my understanding that for the vitamin C (acidic drink/food/supplement) to increase iron absorption in your digestive track, it should be taken with the meal. I agree with others...

For many people, increased libido and better erections take many many months after starting. Not everyone, but many.

I like egg protein powder - many sources. I also use plant based protein, usually a combination of pea and rice. I usually mix the egg and plant based - one scoop of each. Keep an eye on the amino profiles. The plant based stuff can create a large amount of stinky gas, so be aware - it is...

Millions of people take it. Don't worry so much. Start with a small dose and see how it goes - spend some time on google. It is not recreationally if you are taking it to have sex. That is what it is used for. I think it is in your head and I think it would work good for you since your...

Just another data point, I am at about 90 mg per week right now.

I am not a Dr or an expert on anemia, but your MCV and MCH are just out or range. These indicate that your RBC size is a bit smaller than average and that the hemoglobin concentration in a RCB is a bit low. But, you have more RBC than average since your RBC count is high and your iron numbers...

What is your Dr. basing his 'mild anemia' diagnosis?

Thanks for posting. Most people i know supplement with Vit D. because I was low. Finland may be at the extreme for lack of sun but even in sunny environments people don't get 'out' much so need to supplement. I was taking 2000 and still on the low end so I bumped it up to 4000. Taking...

Why do most endos and GP doctors start out at one injection every 2 weeks. They are not dumb or intentionally trying to not help. Is there some standard protocol that they follow or is it from the drug companies instructions or is that what they were taught in med school? OP, my Dr started...

Off topic, but I agree with this. Very good point. I was right at the bottom of the low range or just below - could have gone either way, and Dr said that I will not feel good at that number even if 'just' in range.

I am at E3D and it is a bit of a pain because the day changes every week. I have to have a reminder on my calendar pop up to help with the days and some mornings/days are not very convenient. I like the idea of a fixed schedule at times/days that work best for me and that over time I will...

I had read a long thread on another forum where people had lower T levels with SQ, but that did not occur with me. I agree, should reach steady state unless the T were to 'change' or break down prior to absorption. I don't know enough about the body to know one way or the other. I had read...

Vince, I agree and that is probably reason enough. I don't know if it matters but maybe there was also concern about scarring with EOD IM frequency and muscle soreness from IM. Will, I started IM, changed to SubQ for about 8 weeks, ran labs with both. Now I switch around based on what I...

The US. : ) Kinda joking and kinda not.

This article hit home for me because I sit at a desk much of the day and I know in the back of my mind that I don't think I really do much cardio. http://www.bbc.com/news/health-42565137 Does anyone have any input on this article? For most of my life I have been active but do sit all day for...

to the OP, this has probably been said already but Easy Touch insulin syringes are popular because they are inexpensive, easy to find, and low dead space. Also, consider drawing and injecting with a smaller needle and using the same syringe/needle to do both draw and inject. I like 28 gauge...

I look forward to the results of that study. IMO, it may depend a lot on the individual and their body.

My buddy uses pellets. He like them but from what he says it does not seem as good as injections. He has been way over range and then as the pellets dissolve he is below range. Another time he has a large sore spot after an insert. Works for him though.
