    Having three of the most prominent TRT experts in the world (Dr. Saya, Chrysler and Vergel) post and share their experience on this forum... I guess I'm not the only one to deeply appreciate the effort and time you guys take to educate/help us in improving our quality of life. Thank you, guys!

    Recent Lab work after switching to EOD injections and trying to dial in E2

    Just from my personal experience, when I progressively scaled down from 150mg a week (75mg M T injections took me to about 1500 Total T) to 100mg (50mg M T injections) it took longer than 6 weeks to see the actual values. At the 6 weeks mark it looked like I was still getting the benefits of...

    Real Test quantity in single vial (Testex 100)

    Hi everybody, Just a quick question. I'm on TRT using Testex Prolongatum 100mg in a 2ml vial. I've noticed though that the vial always contains more than just 2ml, actually almost 2.5ml of fluid. Any idea on how that affects my dosing? Does the vial actually contains more than just 100mg of...

    List of high Estradiol symptoms

    Eh eh eh... I was kind of expecting this from you, Nelson... :-) Anyway, of course most of it is just anedoctal evidence, not backed up by any study... Like many other things in the field of TRT, so it seems...

    List of high Estradiol symptoms

    We all know that gyno is the most evident/worst manifestation of high E2. But from what I've experienced personally and learned from others on diff forums, gradual increase of E2 in the body can have a wide range of symptoms, from very subtle to more pronounced. Trying to compile a list here...

    TRT 3 weeks vs 4 weeks

    Allowing a slightly deeper valley in your T levels during that fourth week might indeed make sense. I'd give it a try. Three possible scenarios: - It's gonna make you feel better: Stick to it! - You're gonna feel exactly the same. - You're gonna feel worse: Go back to the old protocol. :-)

    Anastrozole or not

    1st bloodwork and have questions

    He moved from TT @ 192 pre-TRT to over 1500 on TRT, feeling great for the first few weeks and then libido suddenly disappears, and you guys suggest he might have low E2???? Might be that some people could more sensitive to E2 than others? The same way some people only feel the benefits of TRT...

    Hormonal fluctuations

    I always mantain the same protocol for at least 6 weeks before drawing blood (and conclusions).

    Hormonal fluctuations

    Hi everybody, Just thinking out loud. During the past few months of TRT, the moments I've felt the best (as far as energy, mood and libido goes) have always been transitioning moments, from one protocol to the next, or when I've slightly gone up/down with my weekly dosage. Once stable on the...

    Anastrozole or not

    Like it or not, 200mg a week is not the standard trt dose. And regarding the op e2 levels, my bet is also on high e2. Check your levels and talk to your doctor before making any adjustments. Just my suggestion.

    Symptoms of high and low E2

    Same experience here. That lack of fullness feeling down there. Libido might feel average /normal but still some ED present. Nipples feeling a bit harder than usual (depending on the time of the day). Lack of self confidence very slowly creeping up (very subtle). More passive /less proactive...

    Arimidex ONCE A WEEK ???

    Speed, I live in Europe too and dealing with the same situation right now. What kind of high E2 symptoms do you have? Right now I'm taking .25mg of Anastrozol every 7-10 days. Basically when I start feeling my mood and energy levels being affected.

    Am I feeling higher estrogen levels?

    Yes, with smaller and more frequent injections your T levels will reach a steady level after a few weeks. Hopefully that will also help in getting under control your E2 levels, otherwise you might want to start using an AI.

    Transitioning from IM Test Cyp to SQ/shallow IM

    If this can help in anyway, I started TRT with once a week injections on my butt cheeks (performed by a nurse), moved to 2x week self administered SQ injections into my belly fat and then finally to 2x week shallow IM (30/31g needle size) into my quads, without any significant change in T...

    How is it possible? 50, 60-80mg a week

    Just Test. No HCG, no AI. I've posted my recent panels on the forum a few weeks ago. Cant' link them from here right now.

    How is it possible? 50, 60-80mg a week

    I'm on 100mg a week (2x50mg) and my total T is stable above the upper range limit. I guess some people need less T to get the desired effect.

    Confused by new results

    My Test readings (different lab) before starting TRT: February 2015 - Total Test: 6.60 ng/mL (2.4-8.3) - Free Test: 6.60 pg/mL (6.60-30 for 40-59 y.o. men) - LH: 3.5 Ul/L (1.5-8) - FSH: 2.4 Ul/L (1-15) - Prolactin: 7.7 (2.1-17.7) - Cortisol: 19.7 (5-25) After 6 weeks of 150mg a week (3x50mg...

    Confused by new results

    I know, too bad. It might have provided a more clear reading of my whole situation. So, under this scenario, with very high Tot T and free T values at just 100mg a week but still experiencing some issues (I would rate my energy levels a 7.5/10, libido 7/10, sexual function 6/10) what would you...

    Confused by new results

    Just got the final results. Even more puzzled... How's possible that my free T went up after decreasing my weekly dose from 150mg to 100mg? Not that I'm complaining... I think these numbers look great on paper, it's just that I don't think they match 100% how I feel/what I'm experiencing. I...

    Confused by new results

    I know... Hopefully they'll send that result today via email. My guess, based on how I feel, is that I need very high Total T values to get a decent Free T reading.
