    Gene's Nitric Oxide Stack

    I didn't see anyone list mention Vitamin C combined with garlic to boost NO. I found a study that shows that 2 grams of vitamin c and 4 capsules (containing 6 mg of allicin and 13.2 mg of allicin) boosted nitric oxide by 200%. I was able to find that particular garlic extract and it did seem to...

    E2 sensitive vs standard test results

    This is really the first "issue" I've had with him. I have labs again in November so now that I have both the standard and sensitive test results in hand, I think he'll agree it would be worth using the sensitive test.

    E2 sensitive vs standard test results

    I used discount labs as well. I had an issue with not getting my lab results in the time quoted but discount labs customer service was awesome and took care of the issue. I will definitely use them again

    E2 sensitive vs standard test results

    With my last blood work I finally broke down as spent the extra dollars to get a sensitive E2 test done. My standard E2 numbers were 51. Sensitive was 37. I felt pretty good at that number. Maybe a dumb question but I'm just trying to avoid paying for a sensitive test every time I get my blood...

    Varicocele and T

    Same for me. Surgery really did nothing to raise my T as the damage to my testicle was already done. TRT was my only option too. Good luck. Hopefully you'll beat the odds

    Prefilling Syringes?

    I preload 2 weeks worth of testosterone, which is 4 syringes. When I receive my HCG, I preload all the syringes and put them in the freezer. Then I just unthaw them as needed. I haven't noticed any loss of potency. Been doing this for a couple of years now and its very convenient for me.

    Need help interpreting thyroid labs

    Thank you very much for the informative reply. I basically know nothing about the thyroid (and it shows). I have started to read more about it from some of the stickies that Nelson has on this forum. For some reason I'm having a hard time getting my head around some of it, but its slowly making...

    Need help interpreting thyroid labs

    I"ve been on TRT for a couple of years now. My TT has generally been around 900, FT around 20 and E2 around 30(labcorp). My libido and erections are so so and occasionally use generic cialis with good results unless my E2 is out of whack. Lately I have been dealing with anxiety, fatigue, sleep...

    Nagging, persistent joint pain.

    Vitamin_C, if you don't mind, could you please post any findings as time goes on? Also a list of labs that you have done. I am dealing with the same issues and after my latest injury (torn labrum in my shoulder) amongst many other injuries, I have to start looking for answers too. I thought it...

    DHEA raised estrogen

    Thats kind of where I was at too. Even though I started to feel worse as time went on, I decided to stay the course until my blood test. In hind sight, I'm glad that I did. Now I know for sure what the results were. And now I know how I feel when my E2 gets to high.

    DHEA raised estrogen

    Thank you guys for sharing your findings. I was taking pregnenolone for a short time too. No matter what dosage I tried, I felt horrible. I think I'm going to drop DHEA for a while. I have read about the benefits of maintaining healthy levels but when do the pros outweigh the cons?

    DHEA raised estrogen

    So i've been on TRT for about 2 years now. 50mg 2x a week along with 250iu hcg 3x week and 5mg of cialis here and there. TT has always been around 800 and E2 has always been in the low 20's. I get my blood work done every 6 months. Six months ago my doctor suggested adding DHEA to my protocol. I...

    Freeze Testosterone and HCG

    I'm a bit confused about freezing HCG. I have been loading insulin syringes and freezing them for well over a year now and haven't noticed any lose of potency. Here is a link from all things male. Dr. Crisler seems OK with freezing it. Just wondering if anyone else has seen this...

    How can I raise my E2 level?

    Thanks. I'll sure give it a try. Is there any need to change my testosterone dosage? I am using 250 iu HCG on M/W/F. Any need to change that either?

    How can I raise my E2 level?

    Just wondering if you have an update on how you raised your E2. I have a similar problem. Even with my TT of nearly 1000, my E2 is in the teens.

    Testosterone to Estrodiol Ratio

    Just received my lab results from Labcorp. I have a follow up appointment with the doc in a couple of weeks but I know almost nothing about the thyroid, but I am trying to learn. Could you guys let me know what to make of the results. Again, my symptoms are low libido and ED issues. I also have...

    Testosterone to Estrodiol Ratio

    I had blood drawn last week as part of my routine checkup and thyroid was one of the tests. I should be getting the results soon. I realize that these are old labs and probably wont help much but about a year ago I had my thyroid and prolactin levels check. I feel the same now as I did then...

    Testosterone to Estrodiol Ratio

    Gene's Nitric Oxide Stack

    Sorry, I should have stated my question more clearly. I meant elimination the prescription drugs entirely from my "drink" and taking them separately. I'll edit my post if possible to clear that up.

    Gene's Nitric Oxide Stack

    I'm not sure if this question has been asked but can I buy these products in bulk (minus the pharmaceuticals, I will take them separately) and then add them to juice and sip it throughout the day? I have done this with other supplements and I find it much more convenient and cheaper.

    Is it time to start donating blood?

    Thanks guys. I have had a dull headache the last couple weeks. I have read that high Hematocrit can cause this but I've also had a cold and bad sinus congestion. I plan on donating blood in a couple days. The donation center said that they don't deny donors that have high Hematocrit. They let...

    Is it time to start donating blood?

    So I decided to do some of my own blood work about a month before my doctors scheduled blood work and appointment just to see where I'm at. Currently using 50 mg test cyp and 250 iu HCG and .35 mg anastrozole every 3.5 days. Total test is 875 but my E2 was down to 9 so I obviously need to back...

    That's good to know. I've only been on TRT for about 6 months so I still have a lot of learning to do.

    Need a different AI

    Thanks Nelson. My E2 was 56 at 140 mg per week sub q divided into 2 doses. That was using the standard labcorp estradiol test. Adding .25mg anastrozole the day of my injection took my e2 down to 32. My ALT went from 25 (0-44 iu/l) before I started trt to 47. I have not tested GGT. Supplements...

    Need a different AI

    Thanks Gene I had read a study involving women using anastrozole in which a low number experienced high serum enzymes. This was at 1mg per day which is much higher than the dose I am taking but I cannot figure out what else would be causing this issue. I don't recall if I had any alcohol the...

    Need a different AI

    Prior to my last blood test I was using 140 mg testosterone cypionate per week with .5mg anastrozole. TT, FT and E2 were all within a healthy range. My libido is still lacking so my doc and I decided to add hcg. Problem is that my last blood showed elevated liver enzymes. I have since switched...

    39 and dealing with low t symptoms

    Thanks Gene. I will see the doc in a few weeks and will talk to him about doing some additional thyroid testing. After doing a bit of research on stopthethyroidmadness.com it seems they are a big proponent on natural desiccated thyroid. Is there anything else that can be done to help raise T3...
