    Feel horrible on clomid.

    I've read a few articles where that worked very well. I wish I could have stuck it out but I got way to symptomatic and couldn't deal with it anymore. Google low dose clomid...

    3/4 Month Lab Results..wtf happened?

    I guess with a 117 SHBG your binding too much T. That might explain the low T but why is your Free T so high I wonder? But maybe those with more experience can decipher why did your SHBG also go so high so quick? From my understanding, those with low SHBG will have a higher Free T because...

    Going on TRT AI Question

    I would wait for the symptoms first before taking AI. But others with more experience will chime in hopefully. Good luck on your protocol :)

    Clomid killed libido and caused erectile dysfunctions

    4 weeks. I started at 50mg every day and it killed me emotionally for the first week. Then I did 25mg every day the second week and same terrible but less terrible lol. Then I did 25 every other day third week and terrible but less terrible. Then I tried 12.5mg on the fourth week and terrible...

    SSRI HISTORY 26 YO, HELP

    My heart goes out for you young man and for your conditions. I can relate. I'm 52 and on trt for 12 weeks and still trying to dial it in but I have seen some improvements and have hope. TRT would most likely help many of your symptoms. But you need a doctor that specializes in TRT. I'm going...

    Testosterone Replacement Therapy youtube video

    Hey guys, I've been working away on making easier to understand youtube videos about Testosterone Replacement Therapy. I have a few 'under-development' but I thought it would be great to share with you all and see what you think! I'd appreciate any feedback (positive and constructive) Very...

    Feel horrible on clomid.

    I would only use 12.5 mg twice a week to start. Ultimately I had to give it up and use trt, which I'm still dialing in. 50 mg daily clomid almost killed me emotionally :)

    Clomid killed libido and caused erectile dysfunctions

    It took a couple weeks. But to be honest it seemed like 6 weeks to clear out of my system due to its long half life.

    Clomid killed libido and caused erectile dysfunctions

    I tried clomid and gave up. Same reasons. But if I were to do it again I would only take 12.5mg 2x per week.

    HCG WHILE ON TRT

    For sure. But it doesn't bother me. Ejactulation volume with wife is a lot less. That may be a minor reason for me to try it down the road. I'm worried about E2 issues with it. It seems to increase E2 on some (not all) men. I seem to be on the edge of high E2 intermittently but I will do...

    HCG WHILE ON TRT

    I'm 12 weeks on trt. I'm waiting to stabilize T first then experiment with HCG. I want less moving parts to evaluate in the beginning. But many start with both. I'm fairly new so you might wait for more experienced people to advise. I might get you killed...:rolleyes:o_O

    facts about Clomid

    I was incredibly moody on clomid. Had 700 T score and felt worse. Possibly low dose 12.5mg once or twice a week may work better for some. I wish it worked for me. Some have good luck at low doses. It's logical to try and see for yourself :)

    Start TRT with "Normal" Levels?

    I had/do struggle with depression and some anxiety and 50mg of Zoloft was a life saver for 18 years. And Gabapentin worked like a charm for anxiety. I still take low doses of both. It has really helped. But it cannot overcome Low T. I thought the Zoloft was pooping out but then the low T...

    Start TRT with "Normal" Levels?

    In my opinion I would not go on trt with your numbers. It can be emotionally gruelling to get this dialed in. I started trt 12 weeks ago with T levels between 154 -300ng/dl. My bio available T was under the range of acceptable levels (i.e. not even on the range scale). The anxiety I've...

    Good for you! I like hearing positive outcomes. It gives me hope for my journey with trt.

    Switching Protocol Before Vacation

    I have little experience compared to most on this forum but from what I gather with low SHBG your T is not binding well so your Free T may be too high. Free T is what matters the most. You probably should be doing more frequent injections at a much lower amount. Your E2 is super high and...

    Is it normal to feel like this when you have low testosterone?

    I've never smoked a joint in my life lol, but my son has mental illness and *** capsules and indica strain helps him tremendously. He still takes his rx but without this addition of MMJ he would be suffering a lot. I know that when he smokes Sativa or even too much Indica it increases his...

    Need help managing hematocrit w/ labs

    I have read that so many times on here. Thanks for confirming that. I'm new to trt at 9 weeks and I feel decent but I may try slightly lower dose when this protocol stabilizes. More is not always better. Ps: I'm on 50mg every 3.5 days...

    The TRT "trifecta"...Why?

    I'm only 9 weeks in and I take only T cyp for now. This forum is helping me dial it in. Every step they suggested from getting off the every 2 week injections, to 1 week, then every 3.5 days has made obvious improvements to me. If I jumped on the AI when I was doing every 2 weeks to control...

    What does the "trough" feel like?

    I have an SHBG of 32 and every 2 weeks injection was horrible. And my doc would not budge. I just changed my own protocol and feel much better. Still dialing in but so much better than E2W...

    Will it always be a roller coaster?

    My kids are adults now too (18 and 20). But for example if on a scale of 1-10 with ten being super sexual. I normally operate around a level 8 (not bad ah!). But lately it's like sexual addiction mode like 30 (on a 1-10) lol. This has to pass. No way can it stay like this. I know it seems...
