What did u end up doing after experiencing those sides? Did u figure out how to make nandrolone work for u, or did u give up on it all together?

I can only speak for myself, but when I had very low free T, prior to trt, I never experienced any hot flashes. Only time I ever experienced them, and boy did I experience them, is when I took too much Arimidex, and crashed my E2. Legit hot flashes are the most insane thing ever. I empathize...

Oh my bad, I didn’t realize that’s what u were referring to in ur reply. I absolutely agree tho. Carbs, as a general micronutrient, are definitely not the main issue, when it comes to diabetes. That’s not even debatable, imo. There’s plenty of fruitarians out there that don’t have diabetes. And...

In which ways do u feel it? How is it compared to injectable prog, good or bad?

Jc, how is resolving the root cause of the diabetes “avoiding the problem” and not curing it? From my understanding, if u remove the foods that are causing the diabetes, and u no longer have it, that’s basically “curing it” and the opposite of avoiding the problem

Well obv preaching to the choir. I’m probably the biggest proponent of the importance of diet on this whole forum lol But ya I’ve heard that u basically have to take it for life. And if u stop taking it, after losing all that muscle, ur ability to use/ dispose of glucose is going to be greatly...

I like ur style my friend ;). Very curious to see how u continue to do on such a drastic protocol change, compared to what u’ve been on the past few years

Now that fitness and going to the gym and eating healthy are such popular things, it’s going to be really fascinating to see what elderly people start to look like, compared to previous generations, where in old movies a guy that’s 40 looks like he’s 65. People are gonna be shocked at what...

Damn, that’s sucks that he started that stuff. Can’t blame him. I know 3 people in my very immediate family circle that are on it. I’m sure there’s many other people I’m close with that are also on it that just haven’t shared that info with me I think I’ve heard that ozempic can help with...

So prior to the 200 test and 100 deca, and 0.5mg of Arimidex 3x/ week (1.5mg total per week) and 5mg of cialis/ day, u were on 80mg of test per week, and 5mg of cialis/ day? That’s a pretty big jump in androgens. Not judging at all, jc if it was ur urologist NP’s idea to jump up test to 200mg...

Sounds like no changes are perfect in ur situation! Glad to hear it! . Hopefully things continue this way. Hopefully u notice no changes to all things above, and continue to get a bit more joint relief in the upcoming weeks Did u start test c and cialis at the same time? I’m curious how much...

Notice anything else, good or bad? Like mood, energy, sleep, sexual function wise? I know it’s early, but jc

High SHBG and low free T is a tough one. I’m a health freak, and I’m ALL about figuring out and treating the root causes to issues, instead of using meds as bandaids, but when I was 26-27, I had a SHBG right where ur is, a total T around where urs is, and a free T right around where urs is. I...

Yup, couldn’t agree with this more. Would definitely focus as much as u can cutting out gluten, and all grains in general, if possible. Other two things that should make the biggest difference is cutting out dairy, unless it’s raw, unpasteurized, unhomogenized, and from grass fed animals, and...

So I would personally feel like sh*t with ur free T level. And I did when I was 27 and had to go on TRT. My free T level was a bit lower than urs, but not by a ton. But on TRT I found that I need a free T level way higher than urs is at currently to feel good again. Not saying to go on TRT...

From my understanding, and how it’s been for 99.99% of our evolution, is glucose has been the backup/ alternative fuel source, and isn’t as healthy of a fuel source for all the functions of the body, as ketones are, almost like a dirty fuel source, if u will, so the body tries to use the glucose...

everyone’s goals in life are different. At the end of the day, everyone should eat whichever way suits their goals and lifestyle in a way that leads to them having the most happiness in life that they can have. Adding carbs back in clearly makes Paul happier, and allows him to better fulfill all...

Gocha. Thanks for the cliff notes update

Wow. I thought 500mg/ day was him kind of going off the rails. Not sure what his rationale for 700mg/ week could be. I’ll have to catch up on his vids when I get the chance

Is he really doing 700mg/ week now?? And ya the guys that need 200mg/ week, or higher, to feel and function optimally, on HRT, are going to be the outliers, from what I’ve seen. Seems like the hefty majority of men function optimally on around 75-150mg/ week. Obv that’s generalizing, but...

Haven’t watched this yet, but what happened to him doing enanthate? And when ur dosing of an AAS is higher, while using a fast ester, even when levels dip, they’re still gonna be on the highish end, so I would assume that spacing say test prop out EOD, when using very high dosages, would be...

It’s the opposite my friend. Go checkout lifelong carnivores. U’d be hard pressed to find people in their 80’s and 90’s with more energy, and that are more metabolically healthy, than lifelong carnivores. I actually challenge u to find me a person that’s doing carnivore, or the lion diet, that...

Thanks for chiming in. So first thing, and I think u’ll agree with this, a ketogenic diet cannot be compared to a carnivore or lion diet. They’re more different than they are similar, imo. I personally haven’t seen many examples of someone doing a ketogenic diet successfully long term. But I’ve...

Yes, the body still requires some glucose, even while in ketosis. This is why the process of gluconeogenesis exists, and why a person in ketosis, consuming no carbohydrates, will still have a healthy blood sugar level. Fact is, the brain runs better on ketones, mitochondria perform better on...

what does “under normal physiological conditions” mean? That seems like a subjective statement I just don’t understand how glucose can be the body’s primary/ preferred fuel source, when throughout 99.99% of our evolution, humans would be in ketosis, and primarily run off of ketones. Our...

This isn’t true at all tho. It’s not even debatable either. It’s biology 101 that the body and brain prefers ketones as its primary fuel source. Cellular energy is better while in ketosis, and mitochondria perform better, in many different ways, while in ketosis, vs burning glucose as the main...

Possibly a safe statement to make. But wouldn’t DHT levels during puberty play a decent sized role, no pun intended, when it comes to the size a man ends up having?

Ya so how does that work? It increases sensitivity, but like funk said, u obv can’t engage with a woman with it on, unless u use a condom. Does maybe applying it to the frenulum in the morning, help increase sensitivity, even after washing it off later at some point?

So ur not applying any of the dht cream to ur shaft or penis head, or anywhere other than ur taint area? What made u start applying it there?

That’s all awesome to hear man! LOVE hearing success stories/ when people figure out what works for them, or at least figure out how to improve upon things. And I was jc where it sits, but pretty sure it’s irrelevant where it sits, while taking exogenous thyroid hormones. From ur research, do u...

Interesting. The body is more complex than any human could ever even begin to imagine, so I don’t ever count anything out, when it comes to possibilities of what could be occurring within it Now u got me thinking. I wonder if since a lot of pain issues are caused by chronic inflammation, if the...
