    Testosterone propionate supposedly the best ester?

    I'm trying to find a half-life and peak chart for propionate, no luck so far. Anyone have one?

    Testosterone propionate supposedly the best ester?

    Does the Sub Q sting a bit? I have never tried Prop, I just ordered some.

    Testosterone propionate supposedly the best ester?

    I could only get my levels in the 500's on gel. My free T was not where I wanted it to be. Some guys don't absorb and metabolize gels very well.

    Testosterone propionate supposedly the best ester?

    Good observation and a great point. Dr. Crisler used to illustrate the natural rise and fall of testosterone and compare it to various protocols. He was a proponent of gel in that it mimicked the natural ebb and flow. Alas, some of us just don't do well on gel... myself included.

    Can a single dose of .25mg Arimidex crash my E2?

    There are varying thoughts on DIM, I was hesitant to try it myself as I had read so many differing opinions. After using it however, I can say my personal experience has been positive. I have had zero negative symptoms. My PSA labs look great, E2 labs look great, and I like that it balances the...

    Can a single dose of .25mg Arimidex crash my E2?

    I take 200 mgs. I started a few years ago.

    Transdermal Mixing Question / Oil Based VS. Powders

    Yes, I am still injecting. This was an experiment to see if the oil base would work as a transdermal when mixed with the DMSO. I have about 20 of the 1ml vials of T Cyp that were dispensed when the 10 ml vials were not available, so I used a few and made a transdermal.

    Can a single dose of .25mg Arimidex crash my E2?

    The simple answer is that HCG is an LH analog and stimulates the testes to make testosterone. TRT is the process of putting an exogenous substance (exogenous) into a body. The difference is that HCG stimulates your own testosterone production and TRT by means of injection, topical and now oral...

    Transdermal Mixing Question / Oil Based VS. Powders

    Just an update, although this does not appear to be a hot topic on this particular venue. Oil based products, in this instance T Cyp, most definitely work well when mixed with an effective topical delivery system. I mixed T Cyp with a DMSO cream and had identical results as I have had with T...

    Can a single dose of .25mg Arimidex crash my E2?

    Absolutely. The dosage and frequency definitely have to be factored in. I just wanted to show the actual facts of the drug and the mechanism of action as that seemed to be in question. I highly doubt you are going to feel any ill effects of a single .25 dose. As to DIM, DIM works differently...

    Testosterone propionate supposedly the best ester?

    The propionate ester is relatively short lived compared to cypionate and others. The half life is around 20-24 hours. In theory, I would assume it to peak at a higher rate and deliver a stronger initial surge of T levels, then it would taper off at a faster rate as well. That might result in a...

    Can a single dose of .25mg Arimidex crash my E2?

    Those are the actual pharmacokinetics of the drug. And yes, you could crash your estrogen down to 6. At one-point years ago when I was taking Arimidex daily, my E2 labs showed a level of 6 at one point. That prompted me to lower the dose and dosing schedule. I stopped using AI's a long time ago...

    Can a single dose of .25mg Arimidex crash my E2?

    It's never a good idea to take an AI if you're not on TRT. By disabling the enzyme, you are preventing the conversion of the substrate to the product (Testosterone to Estradiol / Androstenedione to Estrone). No conversion, no estrogen. TRT provides enough of the substrate to replenish the...
