Before anyone ask, I've done injections and cream. Currently testosterone (40mg every other day) and hcg (supposed to be 500iu twice a week, I decided to do 200iu every other day along with my testosterone, feel little better always felt 500iu knocked me down, figured why not try it).

I have been on both ends of spectrum. Highest estrodial sensitive was 67.x (so far) lowest was below 5 and it wasn't the sensitive test (I've been on no AI, upwards of 3mg of AI, and now currently on .125 mg every other day to get e-2 down from 67). I pretty much have felt the same ever since I...

Give not five lol

Long story short I've had lots of ups and downs on TRT. June 17 2017 went to universal men's clinic in Tulsa Oklahoma, that lasted a year of crashed e-2 etc. (I have Post on board). Went to defy back in July of last year. Anyways I've been battling high e-2, (63 first 3 months, then 67 4 months...

Should point out only taking testosterone and HCG, along with vitamins, fish oil, coq10, and vitamin D suppliment. Have bottle of anastrozole .125 mg capsules that I took couple weeks (2 per week) as instructed. In case my post are confusing.

After switching to every other day I feel better too overall. After first couple weeks taking AI I no longer feel bloated. When I went to universal men's clinic they crashed my estradiol (<5 more than once on blood work) because of compounded testosterone and anastrozole in shots and cream...

DHEA had issues with so quit after the first week. Hcg I'm just not sure about yet. The ups and downs make things difficult to judge, so think need more time. That said thank you for sharing might have to go same root, though I'm hoping to avoid AI

No haven't tried stopping hcg. Will do if defy says to try stopping. Afraid of changing several things/too much and not really knowing what did what. Oddly I feel better than a couple days ago, but it seems to swing up and down on how I'm feeling. Will hold course, until blood work. And see...

Well thanks for comments everyone. Supposed to go in for partial labs at 4 months. Will see what test, estrogen, free t, etc are and go from there. Just wanting a better sense of what I should be shooting for. Working with defy is great no complaints. I read others here that have been on Trt...

This was doing 80 mg of testosterone twice weekly injections. Along with 500 iu of hcg twice a week. I didn't want to rely on anastrozole so new protocol was given to me to combat that. Along with hemocrits being 51%,

Ok SHBG was 44.7 pre starting trt, my last blood test (9-26-2018) has it at 27. Total T was 855 ng/dL (264-916) free t was at 26 pg/ml range 6.8-21.5. Looking at labs my estradiol was 63.1 not 64. (Sensitive test) sorry for wrong info.

Ok but what mg do I do?

Right around a month ago i was switched from 80mg test cyp twice weekly, to 45mg every other day (along with keeping 500 iu of hcg twice a week.) 200mg per ml testosterone cyp, went from .4 on syringe to .225 on syringe. Anyway the main reason for this was e2 sensitive was 64 and wanted to lower...

Well finally got my estradiol sensitive results yesterday. 63.1... So my e2 was high, almost twice the range. Anyways, going from 80 mg test/500iu of hcg twice a week to 22.5 (was told 20-25 mg but prefer it at 22.5) of testosterone EOD along with 500 iu of hcg twice a week. This way hopefully...

Yes I know.

Hopefully will get e2 results soon and get my 3 month followup appointment so I can figure out and get better. I've tried going to the gym and most of the time don't have nothing in tank. Running around branson has killed me. I'm due for my next shot now. (Oh blood work was last Wednesday...

I'm in Branson and things are horrible. I'm so sick of feeling horrible.

Joint pain, moody, even back hurts and water retention . But no nipple issues. What I'm fearing but can't do anything until im told.

A1C was not tested. Glucose was 106 (fasted, I know this is high)

41 year old, started trt june 2017... I just got most of the results back from 3 month labs. (Missing e2 sensitive results, say it will be couple days.) Anyways did trt followup labs plus free t3, free t4, and reverse T3. Reason for these additions is from last time my tsh came back @ 2.470...

Also getting curious about thyroid. Tsh @1.8 1-4-17 (before ever starting trt) to 2.470 at my initial blood work at defy. Hopefully nothing there but if so then maybe that will be answer to how I feel.

Ok. Update 62 days since I started and just did my 19th injections from Defy. Go Wednesday (9-26) for lab work (already paid) have no idea what that will look like. Will post numbers when I get them. Anyways, do I feel better now than I did with universal? Yes. Do I feel as good as I did...

Started at 200mg testosterone 1mg anastrozole per week (once a week injections) did that for about 8 weeks then got changed to same injection (200mg/1mg testosterone/anastrozole) every 5 days. That lasted about 10 weeks and then moved me to cream because hemocrits kept rising (did 3 donations in...

Don't really know where to post this, if this isn't correct sorry. 41 year old male here. If you look back on previous post, started trt 6-17-17 at Universal Men's Clinic and for 11 months felt horrible and couldn't get them to listen. Was in a contract so couldn't just walk away. Anyways 11...

Just throwing this out there, I don't know anything about that clinic, that said it sounds familiar. I had horrible time at Universal Men's Clinic, who had me doing 200mg testosterone/1mg anastrozole every 5 days. Paid lots of money to feel horrible. Anyways, one of their advertised things was...

That said the gym is not primary, but in my view if I feel good enough to go to gym without worrying I'll pay for 3 days after, then I will feel pretty good indeed.

Ok initial consult is next Wednesday (5 days) and am getting nervous/anxious. Still feeling better than what I felt over last year before I stopped trt. I'm pleased to say, universal men's clinic has not tried charging me, which I figured it would be more difficult. Anyways, I haven't been...

Posted in discuss blood work forum but figured post here too. Tonyp56*said:Yesterday*06:20 PM Defy initial blood work. Quick back ground. 41 year old male that started trt 6-17-17 with Universal Men's Clinic. Never felt right they crashed my e2 and never figured out anastrozole was a problem...

Quick back ground. 41 year old male that started trt 6-17-17 with Universal Men's Clinic. Never felt right they crashed my e2 and never figured out anastrozole was a problem for Me. Anyways, 6-17-17 until October 2017 was using injections, then cream until my last application was 5-19-18 when...

Yes injections are not issue for me, even IM (ive only done thigh and glute injections dont hurt for me, did from 6-17 until mid-late October) is painless to me, don't take long time either, much quicker than cream. Only reason I was on cream was because they said it wouldn't raise hemocrits...

Yeah, right now just trying to make it thru this rough patch, universal men's clinic is behind me (wanting to spread the word as I go of course but glad I'm away from them). I'm feeling confident that Defy will get me straight, fingers crossed quickly, but know and understand it will take some...
