But taking an exogenous drug that shrinks your nuts, shuts down your HPTA, raises your red blood cells and acceletate the growth of your prostate is healthy? Come on, man. That's like a crack head telling someone that diet coke is bad for you. I am sure there can be side affects but that is with...

Yes. I know. I'm not sure. I mean it does defeat the purpose of TRT to then block a vital component. I guess I can get the buzz clippers out and give up... Not sure. Damn, sh*t, why the damn hair?

Ugh... it's that "what if" scenario that worries me. I will give it a try. I mean, hell, we are all taking a risk by the fact we are on TRT, except much more scarier.

I'm on the fence with Propecia. I have been on it for 2 weeks. I might ride it out and see what happens, if however, become a limp noodle...bye.. done... I will throw that stuff away. It seem to be worth a try. I should have tested my DHT before taking, however, I will get it tested soon. Hey...

Yes very true, but why would propecia burn your prostate? It's my understanding that propecia actually eases stress on the prostate by limiting DHT... Also, not sure how it would lower testosterone, if anything it should raise it, because 5AR enzyme binds with propecia, freeing testosterone...

I'm 45... Muscular, but started to feel weak in the gym, extremely fatigued got my test labs at 249, 376, 367 I know that is low for a guy my age, but I am just not sure about this TRT thing... I think it is great. I just don't like the idea of being on testerone for the next 30 years. I'm at a...

lol, probably right. I have been sticking with the Propecia. I need to stop thinking about it.

Don't you think your total T could be higher as well as Estradiol?

I have been told that because my SHBG is at 20, my body uses the testosterone very fast and that with once a week injection, my body uses it very fast then gets rid of it. there for multiple injections at smaller dose would benefit me better. So went from 100 mgs once a week to now 150 mgs @ 50...

I'm like you, I actually like more frequent injections opposed to once a weak. I seem to metabolize Test very fast, so one shot a week does not work for me. Where does that put your labs?

Yes, I will go to Discount labs and order and Free and Total test with estradiol on my own. Someone told me that since it was an estrogen test and not estradiol that it is meaningless. 150mg is high? I see that most TRT clinics actually start patients on 200 mgs a week with HCG... I have...

I have been on Propecia for 12 days. I notice weak erections, and difficulty reaching an orgasm. It could be in my mind, from all these Propecia horror stories. Not sure. I also don't want all my hair falling out while on TRT. I mean, if I can keep my hair and get better on TRT, well that would...

Do you split the 120 into doses? I hear that helps... What is your SHBG? I want to take arimidex, however, I have been told to first wait for labs. Yes, I have read that it's best to do HCG every 3 months for one month. I will put HCG into my protocol but want to try one thing at a time.

I was on 100 mgs a week (one injection) I tested 8 weeks later and had a Total T at 367 (less than pre-trt) My estrogen (my dr ordered estrogen instead estradiol) it came back 192 in range of 60-190... Dr. said to hold of on AI as it was not that high. He said my SHBG was low (20) and that I...

What is your current TRT protocol?

That's what they say about men on Propecia... That most of the people that go to forums are the ones how have the problems with the drug, those who do well, simply go on with life.

Yes... I get the same way. My body just feel like it's not natural. Plus, I worry about me health. This is not anxiety, this is called carring about your health and the long term harm. I keep hearing people say, testoterone has been around for decades, yet, there's only a handful who have been...

I've been on TRT for 8 weeks, had to change my dose to 3 injections 50 mon/wed/fri... I keep saying to myself, why the hell are you doing this? My pre-TRT total T was 376, after 7 weeks on 100 mgs a week, my total T came back 367 (trough day) lower than before I started... WTF? Now I am on 3...

I do believe a lot of it is psychological with me, hearing all the horror stories... I have just started TRT and feel st this point I should dial in my TRT numbers on their own and not introduce another variable ( propecia) once my numbers are set, maybe then look into propecia.

Are you on TRT?

I will look into that. Have you had experience positive/negative with propecia?

Thanks. I will look into that.

Do you think I will be alright having taken it for 6 days?

Thanks, man. I should listen to people. 6 days on that garbage and weak Erection and orgasm. I did not start TRT for this. Thanks to all my fellow TRT brothers.

Actually I think I am throwing my propecia a way. I have been on for 6 days and have noticed a weak orgasm... I only started it because I was worried about my prostate. I'm done with it.

Now, I will be honest... I have been on propecia for 6 days and I HAVE noticed a slight difficulty reaching an orgasm... Hmmm. Maybe I should throw this crap a way. I just figured it would help my prostate... My PSA was .6 before I started and after 6 weeks of 100 mgs of test... My PSA was .9...

And by the way, I am not for or against propecia. I just don't see why someone would want elevated DHT ripping their prostate and scalp off the rail, because a few jack-sac's ****s fell apart.

Duh, Elevated red blood cells can kill you... Prostate cancer can kill you. Every time you inject testosterone it's a risk, so don't ball up and scream about propecia is all I am saying.

TRT has more potential for aide affects than propecia. What happens is some poor schmuck jumps on Propecia then a few years later they have no libido then go to their doctor and find out they have low T then scream and foam at the mouth that, "Propecia did it to me." If I have an energy drink...

Oh, God... Come on. Like injecting drugs that shrink your nuts is any safer...?

But taking injections that shrink your nuts is safe? Just saying...
