I'm thinking it is something else. I still get the itching and burning. It happens with both T Cyp and T Enan, which have completely different ingredients except for Testosterone. I don't think I am allergic to that, so what the heck?? I have tried letting the alcohol dry longer (same...

I have read that Masteron is the choice in many places overseas. Doing a quick google search last night and found this (all of which might not relate to you) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aromatase_excess_syndrome However, under treatments Several treatments have been found to be effective...

So it doesn't sound like you have elevated e2, rather you are extremely sensitive to any levels of e2. You only feel good when your levels are tanked. So are any of the meds you are on estrogenic in nature? Ie they mimic estrogen in their effects on the body? If you are on HCG just to...

Do you have a bloodwork thread or centralized thread discussing you results, meds and issues?

I seem to recall my doc saying to go 500 eod for a week and then go back down to 250. Mine respond within about a week or two of adding it.

I know many folks say never to take a break but I swear the times I felt the best were those transition times... The week or two after stopping T, the first week or two of starting HCG and stopping T, the week or two after starting either T or HCG. Maybe a little variety is a good thing!!!

I think it can help. Especially if that sunlight is on a beach filled with bronzed bodies !!!

I tried that spot the other day and will do it again. Still some burning and itching but not as much. I just have to work on flexibility because I cramp and shake at that angle!!!

I know we all react differently but here is my experience with melatonin Time release is better or else eyes pop open at 3am as the dose wears off. Used more than a few days in a row and there is an increase in depression. Start low. You may find that 1mg works just fine. Tryptophan seems to...

I was on it for a month as solo treatment in an attempt to restart. The HCG cost me almost 150 but at the time I thought it was only good for 45 days. I have since read on here that it lasts much longer so it may not be that bad. Although I didn't seem to notice the same benefits as being on...

My testosterone was around 900 on HCG 400iu three times a week. My only issue is that HCG is more expensive than T.

Three times a day is a deal killer IMO. I don't see how that is better than once a day topical or once or twice a week for injections. Can't imagine dosing compliance would be good at all.

The only odd thing was he said go ahead and stop the thyroid meds for now since my levels weren't real bad and we can get some more good baselines and also see if it is the thyroid meds making me literally crawl out of my skin.

I'm sure there are crazy risks and I don't pretend to know a thing about it. My psychiatrist years ago told me they used to give couples ecstasy in a therapeutic setting and it was remarkable in allowing them to reconnect and find that love again.

Well the doctor has ordered the following labs and I will update when received TT and FT, DHT, estradiol, prolactin, Vit b12, folate rbc, magnesium rbc, iron panel, cmp with Gfr, Vit D, 24 hour urine Iodine, DHEAs, potassium, aldosterone. He wants to wait a few more weeks before doing the...

I always do the stomach because I cramp up and get the shakes when trying to do the glutes! Makes for a painful injection

My doc told me any fat pad will do. The stomach is the just the easiest to show for demonstration purposes on a video it seems

Chris - I actually found that page at STTM just before I crashed last night. I appreciate the recommendation and the help.

Chris, Please see above and if you can recommend any labs in particular that I should request to further evaluate thyroid, goofy lab results listed above, or anything else for a comprehensive work up that would be great.

I will have a followup in a few weeks with my doctor and I am trying to piece together labs that I need to really isolate anything that is going on. Knowing my thyroid is a little weird, trying to dial in my TRT, and figure out what else might be contributing. If anyone has recommendations for...

1mg a day is a crazy high dose. I'm surprised you felt good on that dose with your levels tanked. You are right, there is a lot to learn.

My fathers was high and he did a five day fast followed by a low carb diet. His was much higher. At his followup appointment the labs and doctor showed his levels were normal. The doctor said it was one of only a handful of times he has seen someone reverse a diabetic diagnosis without meds...

Tried to edit to add more from the saliva test but it wouldn't let me. The DHEA Average is DHEA + DHEAs Cortisol load 37 (22-48) Insulin - Saliva <3 (5-20) depressed P17-oH 43 (22-100) Total Salivary SigA 10 (25-60) Depressed

Thanks Dave - I was leaning more towards a natural progression of whatever is going on with my thyroid versus a reaction to the meds. Thanks for your response.

Here are my cortisol results from August 2013 am 20 13-24 noon 7 5-10 dinner 6 3-8 night 4 1-4 DHEA Average 9 3-10

Chris thank you for the in depth response and I will get back with more labs. In the meantime These were pre NDT. I dont know about iron issues but will have it checked. Cortisol was saliva and I will hunt the labs down. I have often wondered about my DHEAs but never gotten a good answer. My...

What is the range for the test levels? If standard range then I would think you would feel like crap from that alone. However I recall a post on here where Nelson said the ratio of the two should be 14 or greater. Your ratio is 4-6. That is low and would suggest high estrogen dominance. I...

Use it daily since I am heterozygous for MTHFR a1298C . I think I notice a slight difference but if nothing else the sublingual tastes good!!

Folks - been about two weeks on naturethroid - only 1/4 grain. I feel a little more jittery, temp up, but more pain in the thyroid. Stabbing pains, dull pains, nodule that hurts more, voice that occasionally goes hoarse. Is this typical as i adjust?

Some others that may be pertinent MTHFR A1298c - Heterozygous WBC 6.4 (3.5-9.5) MCH 33.4 H (27.5-33.0) Have always been just over the range and no idea why Cholesterol 181 Triglycerides 103 HDL 45 Potassium 3.6 (3.5-5.1)

Would have to find labs but my white cell count was right in the middle of normal if I recall correctly. I have only been on naturethroid at 1/4 grain for two weeks. I have followup labs in two more weeks. I have noticed a nodule and general pain in thyroid and maybe an increase in...
