I will ask Defy for this medication switch.

From my understandings, there are a lot of factors which can raise RT3, one which is common is dieting. Starving the body from food can increase it. I lowered mine from high 30’s to 22 right around where you are by eating right and mindfulness meditation. Try and avoid stresses.

So I am going to stay on top of my blood work month to month monitoring my estradiol sensitive levels. I do have prescribed Arimadex on hand, but would nolvadex be more useful if I am secondary? The last thing I want to do is crash my estrogen.

This is probably the answer I am looking for. So if this is true, then one should just attempt to restart their HPT axis. Of course I will be waiting for new bloods to come in to see what 10mg twice a week yields on my report. All I can really comment on is my BP is a lot better than where it...

The basic issue is that it is the liver which affects the level of rT3, not the other way around. Additionally, it takes substantial liver damage to affect the levels of rT3 (the condition of cirrhosis is almost an end-stage condition in which most liver cells have been destroyed or are barely...

With the enClomiphene + HCG, HCG + Clomid, or mono HCG?

Correct, and my prescription and brand of Testosterone given has not changed. Hospira 200 mg/mL (1mL Vial) red top. Just saw they switched to green tops and changed their box around. But I have 6 vials still of the red tops. The green tops actually say the type of oil it is suspended in is...

It seems it, especially with the abuse I did in the past... I am just surprised with the amount of testosterone I am taking right now which is little to nothing, and my blood work was on a day right before injection my levels were still 1,100’s... my numbers are impressive. Also like to add my...

I think “confused” is a poor choice in wording. This thread was for clarification, and seeing 40mg a week was increasing my TT over 1000 was not an ideal optimal number for me. The taper was to lower my number to hopefully 600-800 range. Just the amount I am at is very low for injecting. Almost...

I am trying to tapper off my TRT and try a restart with Clomid 50mg twice a week plus 1,500 a week of HCG. But I am taking 500iu three times a week of HCG with 10mg of Cypionate twice a week currently. Originally I was taking 20mg twice a week of Cypionate, and 350iu three times a week of HCG...

No I know you are right they are not good, but also not crazy high for ALT. but the again I have had high ALT for over a year. Has anyone had similar labs they could share with high RT3 and high ALT. and with treatment producing better numbers?

I am seeing Defy Medical in October, I will bring this to their attention. How should I treatment high RT3?

I’m still confused on what could be elevating my ALT, when I do not drink any alcohol or take Tylenol. Have not been working out hard/running. If anything I weigh 220LB at 6’ and I am Puerto Rican. Should be a smaller frame. I have been getting blood work for over a year now and my ALT ranges...

I agree it is pricey, I used to take growth recreationally when I was younger and would get Genotropin 16iu pens for $100 a piece but of course they would come from Turkey, a country where it was legal to purchase. In addition to my HGH, I would take DAC and the same peptide you took GHRP6 to...

5mg of an AI is crazy high in my honest opinion. If you are taking 5mg and you estradiol is still high then I guess so be it. But I thought rule of thumb for estradiol sensitive is just minus 10... so mine was 57 at one point, and my sensitive was 46. It’s a ball park range but just minus 10...

@Nelson Vergel thank you! I did not think it was going to be that simple. But I believe I completed my list of the important follow up blood work for my doctor to eliminate confusion when sent to the LabCorp facility. Hope this helps others too. If you think there is anything important I left...

Thank you @MarkM i appreciate the help. To what I am referring to is been posted by @Nelson Vergel from this link. https://www.excelmale.com/forum/threads/how-should-doctors-monitor-men-receiving-testosterone-replacement-therapy.488/#post-4993 Just the code provided is a quest code, and I was...

Thank you! CAH Profile 6 I was a Test I read somewhere on this forum that should be included. Antibodies was the thyroid, and is there a panel for all thyroid tests in 1 code?

Hello guys, I am trying to eliminate confusion and stress at my doctors office and wanted to get LabCorp #’s for my doctors email requests. Lately the LabCorp facility I use has been confused on the prescriptions written and I have been wanting to get a consistent blood drawn report when I go...

I had the assumption this was the safest type of donating blood? Assuming if my ferritin and iron levels were low, wouldn’t I have been light headed or passed out? I stood up just fine walked out, drove home and went on with my day. The only sensation I had was when they pumped my plasma back...

Those are good points, I guess I should stick to power red donations, which is what I did originally. Then the plasma is pumped back into me. So technically I don’t lose anything except RBC.

I’m actually quite happy about this RT3 reading. In the past I was all the way up as high as 30. Last month it was 28, and now it is 23.7. To answer your question, no I am not taking any medication related to the thyroid. But I have been reducing my stress, and eating adequately enough to manage...

No I was tested for all hepatitis, all came back negative. FT4 should be in the photos I uploaded I believe.

I actually have been a couch potato since April 2017 when everything started. And yes I was fasting. I always fast for all my blood work.

Hey guys, I have been on TRT since March 2018 and got my new labs in. The only symptoms I have right now are frequency of urination. I weight 220LB and height is 6’. BP is 140/90 and HR 82-95 resting. Protocol: 100mg Cypionate/week (50/50 Wed, Sat) 1050iu HCG/week (350, Mon, Wed, Sat) .5mg...

Hey guys, I have been dealing with a very rough recovery from crashed estrogen. I have been battling symptoms for nearly a year and a half and am at that point I would want to try anything to get me better. I have the impression HGH could help revitalize my system and possibly bring my body...

So how does one recover from a very bad crash and deprived estrogen for a long time? I have long lasting symptoms that TRT will just not fix. And I have been battling for 1.5 years. I don’t know how much more I can take sadly, I have tried just about everything. There has to be a way to...

I can get 90 days only at CVS and target. Since I have CVS Caremark. But CVS is always on back order.

You raised some interesting points. I am not familiar with Methylation, and now that i’m on TRT, how does one detox if they didn’t? How do we correct Methylation?

I know man, just it is easier said than done with some people. It was a vicious cycle for me. Worried about dehydration on top of the amount of fluids I put into my body compared to the large amounts being exspelled. Also I was malnourished and was starving my body without calories because the...

I see good point. I was in that mindset were I formed a health anxiety and with my hormones being all over the place which just added fuel to the fire. Still to this day I couldn’t figure out what caused my frequent urination.
