December 15th was when I had gotten my test results back on 50mg EOD which had me at a test level over 1500, and several people on the forum, including you and Vince suggested that I go to 30mg EOD. It seem low and 32 seem more palatable for some reason. So, I started EOD injections of 32mg on...

If I want to go back to 250 I do injections of Hcg every other day, would I need to skip my next 125iu shot?

I realized that according to the ratio concept that I would need to have even higher e2 to get into the 16-20 ratio which just seemed hard to imagine. I never imagined that my test would be that high on 32mg EOD injections. I was shocked and posted a thread asking why whether I was getting my...

Granted, I freaked out a bit when I couldn't orgasm during sex, but I think that's understandable. Most guys would. I appreciate all of the positive or constructive feedback that I get on this site. I don't see how your comment falls into either of those categories

Thanks ERO and Coastwatcher for the advice! I'll keep it the same an retest in 2-4 weeks. Good erection quality seems to have returned which makes me a happy camper. I know I'm a bit all over the place, but I'm trying to tweak things to find that sweet spot and protocol that works for me

I started EOD test injections over a month ago. I have been injecting 32mg EOD along with 250ius of hcg. I had been feeling pretty good on this protocol and was going to get lab work to see where I was. I stupidly decided to inject 350ius of hcg one day. I had noticed that my orgasm was better...

Just a thought from personal experience, I also had severe GI issues for about a year. It was to the point that I was violently ill 3-4 times a week, bloated, had trouble eating, etc. I went to a doc who ran $2500 worth of tests and ruled out IBS, parasites allergies and the usual suspects. I...

Ok. Well, DR Crisler had mentioned in the latest podcast that I heard this week that injecting EOD was a lot stronger than once or even twice a week, because there is less waste. But, I never expected to be at 1300 on what is slightly less than 120mg a week when I was about that or less on 200mg...

Good advice from Chris. I looked at restarting my HPTA at 41 and most TRT clinics said it was a waste of time because the highest I would be is maybe 600. I did restart my HPTA and got it around 550 and wasn't happy. A low t clinics goal will be to get you 800-1200. I can give you the info of a...

I also have a range that I know I feel good in and above and below which I don't feel good. Whenever I test below 20, I feel miserable, can get erections (morning wood is off and on), but I lose sensitivity, so erections aren't really enjoyable. When I am higher than 35, I am moody, erection...

As far as physique, endurance and recovery time, TRT has been great. I lift what the heavy lifters in the gym lift. The girls that I have gone out with and their friends always compliment me. I am at a true 10% be and have been lower. However, the E2 window never stays even when I keep the same...

I have been on TRT for 2 almost 3 years now. My doc prescribed me 200MG of test a week. I felt great for about the first 3 months then I started having side effect and got bloodwork indicating high E2...in the 60-70 range, So I asked for Arimidex. I had asked for HCG at one time, but the price...

I know that the sensitive test is much greater more accurate and the way to go, but it's hard for me to reason that it's worthless. I could be wrong. I've read Nelson's information about the difference and will reread

Sorry for the gramatical errors. I have been wanting to respond for some time and haven't had a chance

I know that you. Can have higher E2 with higher test, but at the same time there has to be a point at which the ratio theory doesn't hold true. If you. Have E2 of 60 but your test level is 1500, that's still high right? Also, for example, if you were on higher than a TRT dose taking 400-600...

Is it really that wrong? It's the one the vast majority of people have used for many years, and it's one that has always confirmed how I felt. I was surprised by the 2 being on the same report as well. I ordered the female hormone panel from private MD and the sensitive through discount and...

I can post the full panel, but this is an older panel that I was using as an example to answer my discussion. To answer your question, though, I felt good at the time this panel was done. However, it's not all about feeling good. It's mostly about feeling good. We always say that the proof is in...

As someone who has spent the first 3 years of TRT with the wrong docs, I would strongly encourage you to try Defy as well. I've talked/met with 3 docs in Houston and none knew 10% of what defy seems to know. I'm not a patient, but I've followed Crisler, seen the podcasts with defy, and read Dr...

I agree with Orrin. It's a good idea to know your peak and trough and work your way from there with labs. I was always told that your peak was 24 hours after injection, though. When I had labs run 24 hours after 100mgs, I was at 1300 but was occasionally at 1500 or higher (out of test range)

I would keep everything the same, until your test come back. You don't want to change to much at once. This balancing act of when to take your anastrozole after or before your injection and never seeing to keep my E2 consistent is why I decided finally to lower my test dosage and get rid of the...

Every 3.5 days is ideal. It doesn't have exact. Life happens, and it won't be exact all the time. You should aim to get as close as possible though, especially if estradiol management is your goal

Every 3.5 days is every 3.5 days, no matter what it looks like on a calendar. The point is to have as few peaks and valleys as possible and have it mimick the way your body would naturally produce testosterone as closely as possible. But, 2x a week should be every 3.5 days. So, when your test...

You can go Monday, but you won't be getting your E2 tested in your trough, if you inject test injection normally on Tuesday and Thursday. Why are you injecting on Tuesday and Thursday? Aren't you injecting every 3.5 days, if you're splitting your injections into twice a week for your test, it...

So, either way, you get your blood drawn on Tuesday or Thursday prior to your injection. The only question is whether you should take your hCG the day before, in my opinion. I don't think 125 or 250ius will skew your results. 500 probably will

Good question. Your blood draw is always centered around your test injection. So, if you inject your test on Tuesday and Thursday, you would get your blood drawn on Tuesday or Thursday before your injection. I inject my hcg on the same day as my test for convenience, but I know that some people...

I am certainly not an expert in there others on here who have much more in-depth knowledge than I do, but I am following what most people are doing on here in terms of hCG. Most are at 500ius twice a week, 250 every other day, or 125 every day. Lipshultz recommends 500ius three times a week to...

His E2 level could be too high or too low. It's impossible to tell without labs. However, his symptoms don't necessarily indicate that his E2 Level is too low either. Personally, if my E2 is too low, I have great erections, great or no Morningwood depending, very low sensitivity in my penis, my...

Just from what I've read about other people's posts and from my own experience, 200 mg of testosterone a week is right, if you want to take Anastrozole with your testosterone. For someone who wants to keep their test level around 800, you don't need 200 mg of testosterone. If you want to keep...

Why is everyone thinking that he has low E2? It sounds like high E2 to me at least the way high E2 to makes me feel, but I agree you're taking the right steps in getting blood work done and it's fairly cheap and easy. I too have been the same place Maximus is. It seems like at least from the...
