Yeah, my doctor said it’s done very little for his guys on TRT. I’m probably going to start blood letting myself until I move back to Florida full-time. It’s a huge hassle even with a prescription.

I understand how it generally effects medications and I’ve researched it specifically for viagra: I guess I should’ve asked, what do you guys think would be the greatest danger? “Conclusions: Grapefruit juice increases sildenafil bioavailability and tends to delay sildenafil absorption...

I know grapefruit can interfere with viagra and cialis by extending its duration in your system… is this really a bad thing? a longer half-life sounds ideal…. @Nelson Vergel your thoughts too please.

I guess I’ll reply since I did years ago. I couldn’t get HCG for months until recently, it caused me to crash my e2 since I kept my same anastrozzle dose out of fear of a gyno flare up since I’ve always had a tiny lump. I stopped anastrozzle, let my e2 rebound. Did bloodwork, and I was at 40 e2...

I haven’t been able to get HCG for 3 months now due to a shortage at my insurance pharmacy. things were GREAT about two weeks after I discontinued the HCG and I was HYPER-sexual like an 18 year old… it lasted about a month. then I started losing libido, sensitivity, and getting ED…. where I...

Can I take grapefruit extract instead? I reeeaaaaly hate grapefruit juice. Also, I wonder if it’s their machine that’s way off from my labs, or is it possible that my blood is thicker at my finger tips? so far I’m taking green tea extract twice a day and baby aspirin. Also eating all my meals...

Tried to donate again this morning finger test 19.5 deferred

Are you against daily injections?

with iron from what I’ve learned (having the opposite problem) nutrient timing is everything. Where you want to increase or ferritin levels, whenever you eat red meat take a 1000mg tablet of vitamin c and plan your meals in such ways that it increases absorbtion. I believe the phytates in brown...

Blood work done today hemoglobin was 17.9.... wtf

@Dr Justin Saya MD if defy does a prescription for therapeutic phlebotomy, do you guys know anyone in oregon that will do it? My hemoglobin was 21 when I tried to donate.

No one really talks about it but, high hematocrit and iron fuel fungal acne.

I hear if you get sick white blood cells increase and that lowers your RBC.

I was considering this but grapefruit(naringin) can interfere with the absorption of too many oral medications, they continually add more and more every year. don’t take it if you use viagra or cialis it also interferes with the metabolism of estrogen...

I can’t find anywhere to do therapeutic phlebotomy in Oregon. I tried donating blood yesterday but my hemoglobin was 21... that’s like 63 hematocrit. Because it’s so high I went to the walk-in clinic at the hospital where my PCP works. They saw me and all they did was try lecturing me on the...

it’s not a recommendation. Most of the horrible accutane stories you hear were back when common practice was to prescribe about .5mg per pound of body weight so many people were on 80mg a day... today 20mg is a common effective dose.

I think you were the one who suggested my e2 was low when I was having night sweats, you were spot on. It was <10

I’ve been off accutane for 3 months now... I’ve had 2 full labs since... I no longer need an AI at 200mg Test C a week. Daily injections. average total t 1150 E2 29 Free t 37 while I was on accutane I thought my e2 was high, it actually got very very low on the same armidex dose I was on for...

signatures must only display for you and other moderators. I don’t see mine, or anyone’s. Have a good weekend.

Yeah. When my SHBG dropped in half my e2 rose by a lot. I was high SHBG high E2 before I started TRT.

I just looked through all my labs my dht has never been tested, I’ll add that to my next test. I’ve never done steroids I’m just barely 160 pounds at 5’7 I’m not interested in bodybuilding I want functionally fit and healthy only. edit. My skin has seldom ever been oilyfor me it was about my...

Total T 998 Free T 28.3 SHBG 36.6 E2 43.2

I’ve posted my old labs before I’ll screen shot the new ones, the numbers are almost identical. I’m naturally high shbg to get it lowered required higher dosing to get my free t where I felt my best. Yeah my acne got worse at one point but, I’ve suffered with acne since I was 12, I’m 35 now...

Nelson I take .1mg anastrozzle once a day So, .7 a week. I stopped taking it yesterday, do you think if I get bloodwork again next Friday it will reflect what my e2 will sit on? Current medications. T Cyp 200 mg/ml – 0.14 ml SQ Daily HCG 500 iu SQ twice a week Anastrozole 0.1mg daily Metformin...

thank you for the responses! and for founding such an amazing site and community before I found this website I was at the mercy of getting information on steroid related forums.

During the pandemic I also ran out of HCG for a month and went hyper sexual for 2 weeks and then when I restarted a month later I went hyper sexual for another two weeks which was very surprising.

im scared to. I get emotional with high e2 and long long before I started TRT. I developed the tiniest of lumps behind one nipple. It gets sensitive and itches. I don’t think insurance covers removal. I’ve also heard high e2 causes night sweats. I take 28mg testosterone Daily 200mg a week and...

I got my normal labs from defy all of my hormones are great, I feel great, but I’ve been getting night sweats. I’d there any particular I should test for or is this just the nature of the side effects of the very harsh drug?

Yeah, I’m in a very rural area. Closest Walmart is even 90 minutes away.
