Have you had prolactin tested? I am a believer that there are other things we still can't quantify in a blood test.

Admittedly I'm a little scared as my past HCG experiences have not been positive, but I'm running out of options. ED I can deal with via Cialis, but low libido ends up causing ED, and Cialis barely helps. Plus met a really cool girl recently. Thankfully she's been understanding.

I was doing alright (in waves) until the end of January. Had a run of insomnia, and had to take prescription sleep meds for a little over a week. I actually feel probably the best I've felt in years now, minus this missing libido. I honestly have no idea what it is, short of some frantic TRT...

Did you find that HCG improved your libido?

I’ve searched for hours and read countless answers from people, yet it’s hard to gauge the split on who likes HCG versus who doesn’t. Plain and simple. Don’t think about “well I liked it until my kid knocked the vial over” or “well the UGL one sucked but”. As of today, do you like (and...

good point. I wish there were a huge poll on here on how many guys like HCG. That’d help a lot to motivate me to stay on it!

Update - tried 100IU HCG yesterday. Balls did definitely drop back down, felt pretty good last night but a little cranked up. Today feeling more on the anxious side than normal. No real noticeable effects sexually, making me hesitant to try more.

Absolutely considering it again! I have some around, but I'm trying to avoid the knee-jerk reaction to just try it. But also hearing that some doctors are prescribing even lower doses of HCG now (like 250iu/week) is encouraging, as high doses make me feel awful. How much T/HCG do you take?

Thanks man, glad to hear I'm not alone! I alway hoped I'd be one of the easy cases, but it didn't work out that way. Guess we all hope that though lol

I have a similar post on another forum, but trying to make sure I don't overlook anything. The last month or so I've had a hell of a time getting any sexual interest going. It's odd because the last 1.5 months I've done a really great job at cleaning up some bad habits (nicotine, alcohol, poor...

Just started on propionate today, I'll report back with results! I noticed I'm REALLY exhausted this evening, but my sleep hasn't been the best since quitting drinking 2 weeks ago. I'm sure that's a bigger part of it.

Thanks Vince, I trust your opinion on this. I haven't experienced much from either one myself, but wasn't sure.

I feel people never believe me when I say the gym keeps me away from drinking because it sounds so cliche, but it's true. Mainly because drinking destroys my gains, and (for the better) I'm obsessed with that. Thank god nothing else I've ever tried has triggered addiction issues. Just alcohol.

Thanks man, I didn't see this reply, but it's really helpful. I actually went and got some naltrexone, but it seems to squash all "satisfaction" for me when I take it. I'm scared to try it again. It was weird, I just felt down and flat for close to a day. I was really sold on the whole concept...

Hey guys, what’s the general consensus on calcium d-glucarate and DIM these days? More recently, I’ve read that both can also increase clearance of testosterone. Do they really help most guys or not? I do notice a libido boost on TRT when I take Cialis, which is known to lower E2.

Oh...shit lol. You said you've been on it 2 months, have you talked to him a second time yet? Sucks he's usually booked a ways out. The PAs I've talked to in between have been super nice, but it almost feels like they follow a flow chart for some things (high E2 = you get AI etc). Dr Saya has...

How were you before the DHT and pregnenolone? I'd consider dropping those and see how you feel. I'm not a doctor, but that'd be something I'd try first. For me I didn't start to feel good until right around 3 months in. But I also kept screwing it up playing with AIs. Caught myself drinking...

I feel for you man. I've read of some others having that trouble too. I'd say by no means is mine better. But the added confidence it helped with does help. Sometimes I think the anxiety comes from being actually awake mentally and recognizing the problems in my life (like major job issues right...

I keep trying it on occasion and it just keeps failing. The effects seem to be diminishing too. It definitely increases irritability and insomnia for me at least.

I've basically done this while increasing my dose, to get it up more quickly. I forget how much it was for 2-3 days straight, but I didn't notice a single thing. The half life of T cyp is just too long.

What sort of dose of deca? Curious if you were on AAS levels, as I doubt a shot of 60/40 test/deca would come that close then lol

How'd you like it? Any 'deca dick'? Notice lower E2?

What sort of dose were you on?

Only had it tested once recently and came back as 318 (138.5-475.2) Could explain why there was a little room to bump things up but it didn't last forever.

Hey guys, wanted to chime in after talking to Defy. They suggested it's all trial and error, but the fact that I have more than enough DHEA suggests my pregnenolone is probably fine. So when I took it, it probably was taking various downstream hormones past a reasonable range. I'm gonna lay...

Recently had two consults with Defy, first because I was getting really angry and anxious on TRT (200mg, lowered it back to 150mg), and another to talk about T prop and how I was doing with the lowered dose. They suggested that my E2 may have been out of whack too, and that if we find that's...

Nope, terrified of it, lol. Gonna wait a week or so, try it again and make sure I'm noticing it. May mention it on my call with Defy tomorrow too if there's time

Taking Countrylife brand, and yea, just in the morning. I found it to be pretty stimulating.

I tried pregnenolone about a month ago based solely on the many positive reviews from others and across the internet. I was absolutely stunned by it, for about a week, after which I started getting really easily angered, and unable to sleep. I stopped for a few days, tried again at a lower dose...

Curious as well, not saying you're wrong either! I just know there's so many variables. Like how I'm a small guy and 150mg "only" brought me to 700 And while it's not really related to your chart, at the end of the day there's such a difference in how every guy feels on any particular dose too...

How wide were the fluctuations? I'm finding I do better on a lower dose of cypionate (currently 150mg but it puts me in the low 700s), and I remember how I felt once I went from 500 to 400 - don't want to feel that again daily! On the same note, when I was on 200mg, my TT was around 1200, and I...
