Below is my most recent labwork at 160mg of test cyp per week & no hcg & 0.125mg anastrozle twice per week. Now when I first started on TRT my labs looked like this on 140mg of test cyp & 800 units of hcg per week. (See Below). Total Test - 467 Free Test - 19.8 E2 Sensitive - 17.3 So...

This one looks good. Has both DIM & calcium D https://www.naturalhealthyconcepts.com/dim-calcium-d-glucarate.html?afd_number=27141&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI_YTWq_Gf3wIVF8DICh1O0g8kEAQYASABEgJ-JfD_BwE

My overall labs should look much different since I have lowered my dosage after getting this but here they are for reference. E2 was at 55.6 before I took the 0.125mg & 49.2 while taking it. Again these are on a higher dose of test so I imagine my e2 levels are in their 30s with this lower...

I just ordered some dim plus. I inject twice a week and notice that the day I inject and day after I feel shitty then I gradually feel better as time goes on until the next injection then repeat. I’m assuming this is because of a huge spike in estrogen and it’s gradually coming down after...

If testosterone dosage is reduced does your estrogen go down at the same rate (same amount of time) as your testosterone levels?

Alright fellas got the updated results here. Total T - 1333 Free T - 40.2 E2 Sensitive - 49.2 (I got this retested because I started taking my Ai after seeing the initial e2) First off thanks for everyone’s help on telling me to get retested. I see a much easier path to getting my protocol...

I had my information backwards. I thought that high shbg meant your body burns through testosterone quicker which would make doing daily injections needed. Found out it’s the other way around & it’s low shbg that would make Ed or eod injections more ideal.

DHT results came back in at 161.

Defy got back to me. We will be rerunning the total & free testosterone test.

Well my bloodwork blows those studies to hell. My shbg quadrupled after starting trt. See my train wreck of labwork over here 3/4 Month Lab Results..wtf happened?

I have faith they will get me on the right path eventually. Just sucks because I feel like we’re starting again from square 1 trying to figure out a brand new protocol. I’ll admit I’m thinking a lot with my wallet here realizing just how much bloodwork I’m going to have to do before we get...

Haven’t heard anything back on them regarding if they think the lab results may be messed up. I believe we are planning to move forward with doing a consult treating that labwork. Can anyone even guess on what kind of treatment I will be looking at? I’m guessing more of a lower dose daily...

I have contacted Defy with my concerns that the labs results may be incaccurate. Waiting for them to get in touch with medical staff and get back to me.

That’s what I was thinking. I was completely stunned when I saw them today. About the same as before I started trt. zero libido, still some depression. Anxiety has actually increased. Energy may have increased very slightly but I really don’t know for sure. Somewhat more emotional the past...

Here are my lab results that I got back today. Roughly 4 months after starting trt. My prior lab results are posted towards the bottom of the page for reference. I honestly thought I had someones else's bloodwork because of how much things changed from my test just 6 weeks ago. (Below) is...

Damit. This is the first time I’ve ordered a DHT test so was wondering if that would cause the test to take longer. I’m assuming they would get me all of the other bloodwork results backs besides the dht if that was the only thing holding it up.

Out of curiosity what’s the longest it’s taken lab Corp to get your lab results back to you?

Yeah, I believe I do remember reading something about him recommending daily hcG injections. I did not realize it was for that reasoning though. Thought it was to help keep a steady e2 level rather than the twice per weeks spike with injecting twice per week. Very cool. I’ll bring this up at...

Something I was very pleased to find out after I started on hcG is the relaxation/calmness it brings after you inject it and lasts for about 8-10 hours. It can be very faint but just enough to where I look forward to the days I inject it. It’s not some druggy high or anything but just a better...

Any Defy patients here get a testosterone prescription and take it to a local pharmacy to fill using the goodrx app? Just realized I could be paying $70 per 10ml vs the $130 I’m paying by doing it with empower.

My first scheduled follow up wasn’t until the 3 month mark. At 6 weeks I wanted to see what was going on. I ordered test (total & free) and sensitive e2 test. You can order these anytime, don’t need approval or anything. After seeing how low everything was I did a mini consult with a nurse a...

Ah ok. Are you with Defy?

We’re on the same amount of hcG. How long have you been on?

Yea, my bad if I confused everyone here with that.

Yea 50 units or 500iu of hcG every 3.5 days.

Both of these put my mind at ease. I was thinking just adding 40 more mg of test would only raise my t up about 50-75 pts based on what the 140 did. Good to know it doesn’t work like that. Was worried I would hit the 200mg mark and be stuck in the 600 range and they be like that’s the best we...

Mixed it with the solution water that came with it from the pharmacy. Yea I’ve been following their instructions to a tee. Also slightly ocd, so I usually triple check everything.

Does units = IU? For example does 50 units = 500 IU? When I take 50 units of hcG that is a full insulin syringe. @Vince I feel confident I’m taking the correct dosages. I use a 1cc syringe for the testosterone. Was drawing 0.35 when I was taking 70mg per injection. Now with the 90mg I’m...

What was your levels going going from 140 to 200?

I know SHBG plays a major part in determining the frequency of injections. With mine being right in the middle range I think twice a week is a good setup from everything I’ve read and what I recall the Dr saying.
