    TRT for 4 months - No change in labs

    Thanks for the advice - I will try EOD. I didn't want to change anything after he changed my dose because I didn't want to change more than one factor at a time. Additionally - Labs were drawn Wednesday before my Wednesday dose. So my last inj before lab work was Monday morning.

    TRT for 4 months - No change in labs

    Thanks for the advice. When I spoke to the PA yesterday he expected my Free T to be around 800 and was quite shocked it was so low. So he bumped up my dosing. I also have a Free T and Total T lab on file at the lab from my PCP, before I started with Defy. I am planning on getting my labs...

    TRT for 4 months - No change in labs

    H Honestly I dont believe the labs results are accurate. I am going to get more lab work down in 4 weeks and we will find out if those numbers are true or not. I have a hard time believing that i could function and still get an erection with my estrogen being thay low. I dont have any joint...

    TRT for 4 months - No change in labs

    So I just got off the phone with my PA and he believes the Estrogen lab wasn't correct and it may be part of the LabCorp problem. My lab draw was on 09.12.18. He raised my test to .3mls 3 x week and suggested another lab draw for my testosterone in 4 weeks to ensure that level was correct as well.

    TRT for 4 months - No change in labs

    This is my first time on TRT so I haven't done IM before. I haven't really noticed much of a change in my well being, except for a 24-36 hrs window after the HCG. I feel pretty good after my HCG on Mon and Wed.

    New Here - New to TRT

    So I had my initial consult with Melissa from Defy. It was very informative and she was very pleasant. We decided to give tamoxifen a try for 30 days and then re-evaluate how I feel. This would allow me to stay as fertile as possible and hopefully see some relief. The plan moving forward is once...

    New Here - New to TRT

    This is what I was thinking as well. I wasn't sure how effective Clomid would be if my testes are the problem? If they are already getting the signal to produce from LH and still under producing, I am not sure if they will rebound. I would be willing to give it a try. Once we get pregnant, I...
