    Hematocrit Increasing Blood Pressure

    It’s individual. 51 htc is not high. I’ve had htc of 58 with blood pressure 100/65. Pretty sure your anxiety is causing blood pressure spikes.

    Test prop, not feeling anything? How long to notice libido changes?

    This is wrong. There’s no equivalency between natural production and exogenous testosterone. For some reason 8 mg injected would not be the same as 8 mg natural. Even 10 mg injected to take into effect ester.

    Brain estrogen creation 'critical to maintain full sexual activity or desire in males'

    I’ve never felt any feminizing feelings ever and I’ve had estrogen over 75 on through many times. Also no AI ever.

    Testosterone:E2 ratio calculation

    Your E2 is way too low. But your testing is not done properly so these numbers don’t mean anything. Test again on trough. For 1100 test your E2 should be over 60.

    Aspirating

    Just stop aspirating. You’re wasting your time. The movement alone will place the needle in a different spot anyway once you aspirate.

    How long does it take for blood to reflect new HCT levels after donation?

    I test usually 3 days after and it’s reflective in the results. Why do you assume 3%? I usually drop by 10%. Every tine.

    Water Retention While on TRT May Only Occur to Certain Men

    All very true. I’ve never had water retention on any dose, even on 250 mg a week. Never took an AI and my last E2 test was 75.

    Daily injections increased my hematocrit even more.

    What T levels won't increase HCT?

    It’s very individual. Your case will be unique to you. In some like me no dosage or protocol lowers HTC. Nothing. I’ve had as high as 58 hematocrit with test levels between 500-1500.

    Daily Injections and blood work irregularities

    We’ll find out today. Test E. yes that was though. My peak on 100 mg once weekly was 1250 (48!hours post). Seems numbers aren’t that much higher on 210 mg. If my trough was 970 at 72 hours i doubt it was higher then 1250 24 hours earlier.

    Daily Injections and blood work irregularities

    Dosage change has no effect on my hematocrit or hemoglobin. Previous tests on just over 200 mg a week split every 3 days had my TT at 976 and FT at 27.

    Daily Injections and blood work irregularities

    You messed with something that wasn’t broken. Your E2 wasn’t high. It was in proper ratio to your testosterone. Now your free T is too low. Why would you mess with it? Did you even have any crazy side effects originally?

    How long does it take for hematocrit to normalize after stopping TRT?

    Guys testosterone regulates how an increase in red blood cells and hence an increase in hematocrit affects us. Have you heard of anyone on trt drop dead from a high hematocrit? Have you ever heard of anyone on trt ever reaching close to 60 when properly hydrated? No. Lots of paranoia. Hematocrit...

    People who adopt five specific healthy lifestyle factors add 12-14 years to their life expectancy.

    Not really. I’m 220 lbs and my resting heart rate is 59. Similar to when I was 240.

    Estrogen Blocker or not when taking TRT/HCG

    Yeah for 800 , 90 would be high but did you give it enough time to balance out? I’m looking at total testosterone being about 14-20 times higher then estrogen.

    Estrogen Blocker or not when taking TRT/HCG

    Why would think 90 is not natural? Your testosterone is also not natural. Estrogen has to go up as testosterone goes up. If you have no side effects you don’t need to fix something that ain’t broken. I’ve been on as much as 250 mg test a week. Never used AI. Necker had any symptoms.

    Natural alternative to Arimidex

    You need to leave estrogen alone. I use 3000 mg Calcium D- glucarate a day. No impact on estrogen. But it does clear out bad estrogen metabolites. So yes use it. But use proper dosage like 3 g a day.

    Estrogen Blocker or not when taking TRT/HCG

    Arimidex is a toxic chemotherapy drug. The cons outweigh the pros. Very few pros anyway. Your body needs estrogen. The more testosterone you have the more estrogen you need.

    TRT and working out. Benefits start at what point if any?

    ECA stack for immediate fat loss and muscle sparing. Ephedrine works every time. If you’re healthy it’s worth looking into. It’s also dirt cheap. Here in Canada it’s legal and you can buy it at any supplement store.

    Hematocrit drives Blood Viscosity- Does that Matter in Men on TRT? Effect of Altitude?

    Read the testosterone impact on Nitric oxide production. If high hct was bad for guys on trt imagine how many guys would drop dead? I agree most people can react differently but the testosterone pharmacology is the same in everyone.

    Hematocrit drives Blood Viscosity- Does that Matter in Men on TRT? Effect of Altitude?

    None of this matters. Testosterone INCREASES NO production and dilates blood vessels to account for any blood thickening essentially cancelling out any negative side effects. Hence no one on TRT us dropping dead. If this was not true, one would see an increase in blood pressure and heart rate...

    Warning for Men on TRT: Low Ferritin is Bad

    Nothing. You hope your ferritin starts going up. You definitely can’t donate. And taking iron will increase red blood cell production. I think it stabilizes though. Hematocrit doesn’t just keep going up and up indefinitely. Like you never see guys posting with hematocrit over 60. I mean you’ll...

    Warning for Men on TRT: Low Ferritin is Bad

    Iron bisglycinate with 1000 mg vitamin c and 1000 mg lysine. I think any vitamin c is good. I buy all my stuff from iHerb. Top brands being NOW foods, Life extension and Doctor’s Best.

    High E2 Prolactin Low SHBG

    Except your levels aren’t stable yet as you’re only 5 weeks in and now you’re adding other things in, that could cause even more problems. You should leave things alone for at least 8 weeks. You just started! Why are you checking numbers after only 5 weeks? Your levels are still in flux and you...

    Body Acne -- Caused by DHT or E2?

    Neither your E2 or DHT is high. The more shit you add into the mix the more you complicate things. Just inject testosterone and don’t add anything else. No AI. Don’t even think about finasteride. Just take test alone and let your body balance out. I get bouts of acne and I figured out why. I...

    Does Hematocrit ever level out?

    It might be something else though. Hard to say that slightly elevated blood thickness causes any symptoms. Most men should have similar side effects. I can’t tell the difference between 46 or 58 hematocrit.
