    Hct was back to 52 this morning after a couple weeks on 100mg , pretty big drop, I wonder if it could have been hydration issues compounding things I'm sticking with 100mg from now on

    Nandrolone and hematocrit?

    I've been on 200mg nd/100mg test a week for a while as an attempt to help with my chronic joint issues. It seems to be working but I'm concerned the nd dose is too high, after a few months my hematocrit has jumped to the upper 50s and I'm generally feeling very crappy Would 50-100mg of ND be...

    Can TRT cause kidney cysts?

    Good to know, thanks to everyone for in depth replies I feel great on this protocol, I get gross and bloated with 200mg test and this seems to help with my arthritis a bit. I have stopped taking celebrex and haven't noticed much of my chronic hip or knee pain flaring up since the nandrolone...

    Can TRT cause kidney cysts?

    Thankfully my urologist thinks the cysts I've developed at just multiple simple cysts, not kidney disease, but he's not sure what could have caused them. I eliminated the celebrex I was taking and to help my arthritis my TRT doctor put me on 100mg of deca a week to go with 100mg test, is there...

    Cystatin C egfr - affected by exercising?

    My creatinine usually gets really high for the days following exercise to the point my traditional EGFR goes from high 70s down to even 40s if I do it the days after an intense back or leg workout because of the creatinine elevation I just ordered cystatin C since that apparently isn't...

    Jowls, underneck bloat and general puffy look - e2?

    I've never noticed this before but with WFH and being on webcam a lot I've really noticed my face is looking not so great. I'm in my 40s and people usually think me younger since I have no lines and am in good shape but now I see why no one has carded me in a while!! My e2 runs a bit above...

    Deca for TRT - effects on e2 and hematocrit vs Test?

    My doc has empower send it to me to. He's a family doc but as knowledgeable as any high profile anti aging doc I've used in the past No deca dick, at least I don't think so. In the distant past I ran 600m+ of it a week for months and had no issues but who knows now I'm old lol For hematocrit...

    Deca for TRT - effects on e2 and hematocrit vs Test?

    my doc has put me on a 100 test/100 deca regime instead of my usual 200mg of test, his thinking is that this will lower my e2 a little as well as possibly help my hematocrit which has been creeping up Are there any studies or anecdotes that compare the hematocrit raising effects of nandrolone...

    High RDW for the first time ever, MCV normal - could this be from too frequent donations?

    Because my hematocrit has been staying over 50, I have done some fairly frequent blood donations in the last 6 months - close to once every 2 months. For the first time ever my RDW value was high at just over 18, other numbers were in range my doc didnt seem concerned and said he would test...

    Cannot increase my IGF1 even when using Serostim

    Hey Nelson, each serostim was about 18 iu so I'd add .9cc water and divide so each 0.1 cc inject was about 2iu My ferretin was actually low normal last time, likely from the frequent donations. Can that affect IGF1 conversion? I'd read something about 5α-Reductase being involved but nothing...

    Cannot increase my IGF1 even when using Serostim

    Thank you for the reply Nelson, I'll try that- I had assumed IGF1 was relatively stable based on what my trt doc told me but that makes sense. I donate every month (usually) because I tend to run sticky blood and want to keep it under 50, I start getting a very red face and feeling "odd" if it...

    Cannot increase my IGF1 even when using Serostim

    Between 2 and 6iu a day, I've tried every dosing time/regime, IM and subq, nothing worked. This was right from the pharmacy but even then I ran the GH serum test a couple times a year and it was always as expected I try to sleep 8 hours a night, take melatonin 20mg and 5htp before bed, I've...

    Cannot increase my IGF1 even when using Serostim

    Apologies if this is the wrong forum but I'm hoping someone here may have some insight since none of my trt doctors have been able to suggest anything For a decade I've been using hgh and tried various peptides, and my IGF1 has never moved above 100 in that whole time. After 4 months of...

    BHP from low dose trenbolone in conjugation with TRT ?

    I've been on TRT for several years, and in my younger days used fairly large (100mg ED) doses of tren, but havent touched the drug for nearly a decade (I'm 42 now) I recently (2 months ago) added in 300 mg a week of tren to my TRT regime (200 mg test/week) in an attempt to try to rebuild muscle...
