Thanks. When women are prescribed Testosterone (by any means), is it primarily to resolve libido issues? Is TRT for women often used in concert with other replacement therapy such as estrogen/progesterone only in menopausal women?

Is there a reason women are typically prescribed transdermal patches or creams versus Test Cyp injections?

Thanks for the reply, Dr.Rotman. I have noticed some other posts on this forum mentioning that a low daily dose of Cialis was effective at treating BPH symptoms. Any opinion on that as an option? I had not heard of some of the other options you noted (Urolift, Rezum, Prostiva) but I will...

Dr. Rotman, I have a question about Prostate and urine flow. Some background: I am 51 years old, I have been on TRT for the last 18 months or so. I was lucky enough to get dialed in very quickly under Defy Medical, my current protocol is 120mg/week Test Cyp (60mg Sun/Wed subq). Also HCG...

My primary doc was concerned about my prostate. He ran a recent test doing a ultrasound of my bladder after I tried emptying. Results were high, he waited 6 weeks and did another test. The 2nd test was a little lower, but still on the high side. I'm 51, on TRT for a little over 1 year. Feel...

I have been with Defy for over 1 year now, been very happy. I just refilled my Rx and received package in the mail from Hallandale Rx. All my other prescriptions were from APS, which I have been happy with. This one seemed packaged well - I have not used the new Rx yet. Dumb question #1 - The...

Prior to starting TRT (with Defy), my E2 was 16.9, Total T was 263 and Free T was 5.9. After 8 weeks on my protocol, which is 60mg Test Cyp 2x per week subq and 100iu HCG daily subq, my E2 was at 51.6, Total T was at 756, and Free T was 23.3. All my energy and recovery came back after settling...

Interesting thread, I have been looking at Thyroid and TSH results more closely the last week. I started on TRT with Defy 7-8 weeks ago and feel really good (Free and Total T have come up optimally and all other indicators look good). My latest Blood Work showed a TSH of 3.22. I have never had...

Seems like a large weekly dose of HCG, though? So you are taking 750iu 3x per week for a total of 2250iu weekly? Is that much necessary?

I'm in the same boat as the OP. My protocol through Defy is 60mg test Cyp 2x per week and 100iu HCG daily. I am just wrapping up week 6 on this protocol and will be getting by blood work done tomorrow morning (injection days are Sun and Wed). After just 6 weeks, I am also feeling fantastic. I...

Robbie63 - I have been with Defy for about 3 weeks or so - so far, so good! A Huge improvement over my local Endo and my new protocol seems to have me feeling great. I wanted to ask whether your wife proceeded with treatment from Defy? My wife just finished submitting her paperwork and labwork...

I just started with Defy with the following protocol (under Dr. John Crisler): Test Cyp 60 mg 2x per week subq HCG 100iu Daily subq Estradiol was at 16.9 with my last BW I plan to monitor my Estradiol levels closely and also hope to avoid taking any Anastrazole.

BigFred - if you don't mind me asking, what is your approx body fat %? It seems like body fat/belly fat plays some role in ability to control E2 levels? I am just starting out with TRT, even though my BW looks great and I exercise 4-5x per week, I am still carrying quite a bit of belly fat. I...

This thread is of interest to me. Just about to start my new protocol with Defy next week: 1.) 60mg Test Cyp (200 mg/ml) 2x per week (I will inject subq on Sun and Wed mornings). 2.) 100iu HCG Daily every morning (also subq). 3.) Anastrozole 0.5mg/DIM 200mg By mouth 2x per week on Test injection...

I was reading the "Optimize your Testosterone" eBook on this site. http://excelmale.com/Ebook-Optimize-Your-Testosterone.pdf Something I don't understand about the chart on page 13 (or 14 if you go by PDF#), On all my Blood Work lab results, the reference range for free T is 46.0 to 224.0 pg/ml...

I want to give my Endo a chance to explain in our follow-up appt. I have a friend also being treated, he is 10 years younger (I am 50). They started him out with 30mg per week, then went to 50mg, then eventually 100mg (he has been on TRT for about 14 months). He says he feels great now, but...

I started TRT 8 weeks ago and my doc Endo prescribed 16mg Cypionate weekly. My first follow-up appointment is 7/24. I had blood work done 2 weeks back and my Free T had dropped from 46.2 pg/ml to 40.7. My Total T had dropped from 336 ng/dl to 307. I am hoping my Endo makes an adjustment in my...
