You should post a new thread specific to Cabergoline in one of the other sub forums.

Wishing you a thorough recovery. My wife has peripheral vascular disease and dvt. In her case the distal aorta was occluded and that compromised blood flow to the legs. I learned more about pad than I ever wanted to know. Hopefully you won’t require surgery.

Nice post abarrus. Thank you for your service. Are you still on the ssri's? Your pre trt labs should have things like shbg, estradiol, free t etc... do you have follow up labs scheduled with your dr? Ask here what those labs should include if you need to.

Nice topic. I wish I knew what led to my hypogonadism. Some of mine is age related (49 yo been on treatment 2.5 yrs) and I had a baseball practice accident (ball to the gonads) that may be a contributing factor. But I think barring the accident, I would still be low and probably was for quite...

What is your protocol history ? How many different dosages have you been on and what about the frequencies. How long have you been doing trt? Who is your dr. ? Labs? Shbg ?

Nothing wrong with 1500 if you feel ok and all labs are ok. How do you know you will feel good at 800?

I think you should get started on the cream since your T level is so low. And then start looking for a new doctor who specializes in trt. The Banner ads on this site are all very highly rated providers. Your hair loss could accelerate on injections as well as topicals. IMO it’s better to feel...

I’m pretty sure Alex Rodriguez was able to get on trt through his doctor proclaiming androgen deficiency.

As I read this thread my balls started hurting.

I’m betting you respond favorably to the NDT meds. Good luck.

Gman what were your thyroid numbers ? If you don’t mind me asking. Eager to hear how it all works out for you.

Welcome to Excel Male. It depends. How do you feel? What is your free T, shbg and estradiol. You could still have low free T with 588 Total.

Sounds like a good workout. Bjj is a very well known martial art these days.

I guess we have several black belts from Okinawan karate at EM, Uechi Ryu, Shorin Ryu and Gojo Ryu. Good to hear. Dragon bits you can’t go wrong with any of these styles. Lots of fun and great work outs and they do help you focus on life in general. And a concealed weapon is always a good idea.

I was involved with karate for about 6 years, shorin ryu which is classical Okinawan karate. I really miss the training and would still participate but I live too far away now. I can’t add much to what mountain man said as his answer is pretty thorough i’d Only emphasize what he said about...

GMO foods entered the market in 1995 and along with it a massive increase in use of the herbicide glyphosate which is an analog of the amino acid glycine. No doubt this has played a role in declining testosterone levels. The use of the herbicide 2,4-d in agriculture has a much longer track...

Thanks Nelson. Do you have an opinion on Ubiquinone vs Ubiquinol?

What are good brands and what dose do most of you take? Also, if you’re in your 40’s or beyond is Ubiquinol really better and Ubiquinone poorly metabolized? And regarding Ubiquinol, if it’s all produced by Kaneka nutrients is there really any difference between brands? I read that regular CoQ10...

I'd like to see solid strategies for raising hdl.

Agree with you there. I get out of breath more easily when my hct starts to approach 51. That's when I donate, which has been once a year and it always gets high during winter. And i always feel way way better afteward. My .02

There is a member here whose father has natUral t level around 1000 in his 60's. There is a gradual tapering down in healthy men and a rather abrupt decline in men struggling with hypogonadism whether it be type I type II or what is now being called type III.

Am I understanding Dr. Gordon correctly? Not sure if it's the correct interpretation but that's my read on it too. Thinking about pregnenalone now. Does hcg fill the role of luteinizing hormone in this instance?

Shocking to know he called the whole of Excel male a cesspool of idiots with anxiety from overdosing on Ali's. I would think he would want good relations with this community to sell his books and webinars. He's difficult to understand in that he seems to be erratic in his positions and beliefs...

Really good video. Thanks VC

I've heard that the lower your t is/was the faster your respond and start feeling it. Give it time, everyone is different. Good move on the anastrozole.

That all sounds great I hope your #'s improve soon and you start feeling better. Dr. Calkins is my doc too, awesome dude...

Sounds like a good dose. Some of the nomenclature used here like iu' s cc's etc can get confusing, especially for me.

I do the triple check too. Grin. So you are taking 500 iu of hcg?

Went from total t of around 550 all the way up to and past 1500. But it became problematic because of e2. That's when I switched doctor's and titrated down. I'm now back to 140 for over a year now. Liking it.

You're right about your shbg as most people in that range administer twice per week. It may just take more time. A couple of years ago my low t clinic bumped me from 140mg to 200 mg weekly because they said I was using more testosterone. I recall feeling just ok but not good around that time...
