    Had my DHT tested, it's through the roof!!

    If DHT is that high and you use small dosages of FInasteride just so dht falls into a more normal mid range level, i cant see how you would have issues. Very few guys get real issues and its usually when dht is almost totally wiped out..

    T cream to increase DHT

    When my natural /total T levels are 320, my dht is only 38 ( range 30-75)., when my total T is 900 from T injections, my dht is over 150!!! For whatever reason, my natural T levels directly correlate to dht but not when i do injections.

    Had my DHT tested, it's through the roof!!

    My doc has prescribed over 4000 ( yes, 4000) prescriptions for propecia and he never had one case where someone had permament issues or bad sexual side effects. Many of those negative reviews and experiences are actually written by lawyers and affiliates. Lawyers know they can get quick money...

    T Too High For TRT

    EAH are you on cholesterol meds? your ED probably has more to do with high blood pressure and perhaps partially blocked arteries. Even though Free T is on the “ slightly lower end”, i doubt thats the issue. Type 2 diabetes and being overweight have much more tondo with lack of energy and low...

    I took a peek at my Labs

    Vince think about it. Your total T is 1300 and dht is only 57 ( range 30-80 ). When your T levels are, lats say 350 naturally, your DHT is probably in the 10-15 range ( very low). You must be extremely sensitive to dht.

    Vince are you using a statin ??? Did you ever? Those numbers are extremely low, not just low. are you using finasteride? The fact that your Free T and Total T are so high and your DHT is barely mid range is extremely rare....how old are you and are you bald? regarding high dosages, your heart...

    I took a peek at my Labs

    Vince thats too high. I read an interesting study to where those getting T replacement and staying within mid to upper mid range resulted in lower LDL cholesterol and slightly higher HDL. when levels went to top of range and above the reference range, LDL levels increases and HDL decreased. When...

    Free Testosterone

    A very simplistic way of viewing your question is this.. if you have T levels between 600-700 and you still feel horrible its overwhelmingly obvious its NOT due to testosterone. Maybe depression but certainly not T. Testostorone is not some magic potion that solves everything. You can have low...

    Can you Have 1000 ng/dL Natural Testosterone Level ?

    Your levels are excellent. A lot of guys with high total T levels have only average free T levels. In order for the body to increase free T, it increases total T. I have a friend who is 50 years old and his T levels are about 700. He is in great shape but his Free T is mid to low mid range. When...

    Looking for advice concerning labs.

    Is is necessary to test your estrogen levels before taking meds like Clomid?

    This is the million dollar question... if you take clomid and have mid range E2 numbers, can you still suffer estrogenic effects due to the effect of clomid itself on certian parts of the body that wont manifest as E2 on blood tests? remember, clomid is an estrogen blocker in the hypothalamus...

    LH and FSH cuttoff values

    Defy seems to be only addressing a side effect of being overweight and using T and hcg. They / he needs to address is body fat first. 70 mgs 2x per week is a lot of test. Most guys dont need anywhere near that amount. The more body fat, the more T you need.

    LH and FSH cuttoff values

    You said you are overweight? Diet and excerise regularly so you reduce fat. You are obviously converting a lot of your testosterone to estrogen. Im utterly shocked no one else is seeing that. I can easily tell by your blood results- total T is low 400's and estogen is 39. Its obvious. Rather...

    Do guys on TRT have more libido than a Healthy-Normal guy?

    Do guys on TRT have more libido than a Healthy-Normal guy?

    Mine is very high when im on T. That sounds great but when you are older and have an insane sex drive, you constantly think about sex. Even the ugly cashier starts looking attractive. Its actually very counter productive and you it could lead to bad decisions. Also, its rare that your...

    Uncomfortable feeling in Anus/Sphincter

    It's probably your prostate. Is your urine stream weaker? You may have prostate inflammation. An actual large prostate ( bph) in the general sense doesnt usually cause pain or pressure. You can have a very large prostate and never know it. Bph doesnt cause pressure, you feel nothing. You just...

    Hi Vince 45 mgs 2x per week might seem a tad low but its a great dose for me. Good libido, good energy, mental clarity, overall feeling of well being. Some guys dont need a lot of testosterone to function well. I do great in the mid 500-650 range. i see many guys post blood results of 900 but...
