    Numb Penis, Anorgasmia during Sex, Low Cortisol, High Prolactin on TRT

    I actually came off trt again shortly after making that post. Just started back on my own, started with 60mg per week this time and up to 85-90mg per week. Anymore than that and I feel high e2 issues. Havent been on long enough for bloodwork but still not much to report with libido, brain fog...

    Cialis & DHT

    Need help understanding this article, mainly this part. “Serum DHT increase in placebo treatment immediately post maximal aerobic exercise and return to basal values at 60 min of recovery whereas tadalafil administration significantly reduced the DHT increase after exercise.” Is this saying...

    TRT and swollen / sore lymph nodes ????

    On my neck similar to how OP mentioned. For clarification I’m not 100% sure it’s swollen lymph nodes but feels like it. It’s something within the throat area that happens on either side right under the jaw line. Sort of feels like what starts up during allergy season but without the runny...

    TRT and swollen / sore lymph nodes ????

    This happens every time I make a change to my protocol. Usually starts my 2nd week into the change of a protocol and last for a week or two. Took about three different times before I realized it was the protocol change causing this but after changing protocols numerous times I know it’s a...

    I am on week 5-6 anxiety comes and goes

    It’s kind of like being in a dead end job. You might be in a crappy spot but it’s a crappy spot that you’re use to and change can be scary. Especially when you know the change messes you up for 8 weeks. Then staying put to long then you’re pissed at yourself for being stuck in that dead end...

    I am on week 5-6 anxiety comes and goes

    The one thing I can guarantee will happen every time I swap my dose is anxiety. Up or down. I just recently finished 8 weeks after lowering my dose and and from week 2 down to I think week 7 the anxiety doesn’t let up. Just lowered my dose again and on week 2 now and it’s like reliving a...

    How much of dosage change side effects are in relation to dopamine?

    Yeah with Wellbutrin being a norepinephrine dopamine reuptake inhibitor, you’ve got more dopamine bouncing around up there. Especially with you being on it a relatively short time for 6 months you’re still getting that honeymoon period of the dopamine from it. I liked it when I took it many...

    How much of dosage change side effects are in relation to dopamine?

    This is more of what’s everyone’s opinion. When changes are made to testosterone dosages, let’s say lowering it for this instance. How much of those depressed, anxiety, no drive or libido type of feelings that come following a reduction in dosage, do you believe are mainly from the brain...

    Very little powder in HCG (Pregnyl) bottle

    Yup, was optumrx. I know it works. At least from the traditional high e2 side effects I get after injecting it. Couldn’t tell you how it compares to empowers compounded one though since I was all over the place with dosages and it’s been a little bit since I used theirs.

    Very little powder in HCG (Pregnyl) bottle

    I had the same thoughts when I got my pregnyl a few months ago. It had the same amount of powder as what’s in your pic. I was also curious about it for the same reasons bc before I had gotten the compounded hcg from empower where like half the vial was filled with powder.

    I'm looking for members that use Optum Pharmacy for HCG.

    I used them for pregnyl about 4 months ago. Matthew covered it well. First time ordering it is done through the phone and can take 15-20 minutes (did for me) to get all the info and get everything ordered. I do remember they quoted me quite higher than what I was expecting based off of what I...

    Anxiety When Lowering TRT Dose

    Most guy get anxiety as a side effect when starting trt, it’s very common until body gets adjusted to it. I always thought it was just bc more testosterone, higher dopamine and just body running at a higher gear so just an overall shock of the body. I’m starting to notice that same elevated...

    My notes on Empower nasal T gel experiment

    Wonder how this would do when used off of trt, just used for a libido boost before sex? Maybe just once or twice per week?

    Testing Melanotan II For Libido

    I’ve actually just come off of primo, tried both it and Proviron no luck from either. I’m literally going through every single item that says it’s supposed to help with libido. After doing more and more trial and error and looking back through old notes, I’m starting to come to this theory...

    Testing Melanotan II For Libido

    I’ve read that pt141 usually does great the first injection then the following ones have lesser or no result. Like it surges the brain with dopamine then if you want that libido boost again you have to take more or wait a few weeks for the engines too cool down before going again is the way I...

    Testing Melanotan II For Libido

    After doing the 1mg the next was pretty jittery. Still no major difference in libido. Swapped back to 0.5mg the following days after. The mechanism for how m2 works honestly just seems like it increases dopamine and gives a tan. Having the same feelings of as when adderall dosage kicks in...

    Numb Penis, Anorgasmia during Sex, Low Cortisol, High Prolactin on TRT

    Have very similar symptoms as OP, brain fog, dead penis, just no real mental stimulation. Currently in the process of dropping my dosage down to 100mg of test per week. Was at 140mg per week, test trough was somewhere around 1100mg. Dropped down to 120mg of test (felt no difference) and did...

    Testing Melanotan II For Libido

    I am. Stopped adderall for 3-4 months this time last year and no change with it. I honestly believe my issues are more from Post-SSRI Sexual Dysfunction. Been on/off different antidepressants for the past 13 years. Never been off one for more than 3 months. Coming up on 3 months without one...

    Things that reduce hcg effectiveness.

    Forgot all about this post. Yeah, I do take into account that sometimes things just change overtime in terms of effectiveness or how we perceive that effectiveness. I’m a big variable tester, not just with health but everything. Main reason I’m pretty active on this board is seeing what others...

    Testing Melanotan II For Libido

    First time doing 1mg tonight. Nausea & facial flushing are pretty much non existent now. Have got some better than average wood randomly but there wasn't a strong mental stimulation to do anything with it. Something I am worried about is if I do get this mental stimulation from the increased...

    Testing Melanotan II For Libido

    Looking forward to trying it next. The libido side of things is what I want boosted, blood flow not an issue just don’t have any mental stimulation for it to get excited enough anymore.

    Support natural T instead of replacing?

    Something I’ve always wondered does the testosterone level determine how much you’re shutdown? For example, if your test levels stays over 1000 even at trough then your body is most likely gonna say, well were all set here we don’t need to do anything. But if you’re let’s say on more average...

    Testing Melanotan II For Libido

    Instead of doing the 0.25mg on Tuesday/Thursday only I’ve been doing it everyday. Since I don’t get any libido boost I am gonna make use of the appetite suppression. I usually take the injection around 4-5 pm. Started to notice I get very tired an hour or two right before the next injection...

    Looks like they were already on top of it. I agree, would hate for someone to see that in the future and mimic that.

    Testing Melanotan II For Libido

    Just realized I typed the dosage up wrong. Wish there was an option to edit posts. The dose is 0.5 mg and 0.25mg not 5/2.5 mg.

    Testing Melanotan II For Libido

    Got some MT2 to see if it could help with libido. Protocol I’m following [0.5 mg] 3 days in a row. Then [0.25 mg] twice per week. Did first dose around 3pm yesterday. The nausea and facial flushing happened within like 5 mins. The nausea was just pretty strong stomach cramps. Not vomiting or...
