    Low Ferritin Level and High HCT

    Are you sure you were maximally hydrated when you did the test? I think that can impact HCT. I've gone to getting tested late morning and drinking at least half a gallon of water beforehand which seems to help.

    Fatty liver and Trt

    Step one for organ fat is to eliminate the cause. Have you eliminated all added sugars (especially High Fructose Corn Syrup and sugary drinks) and seed oils especially corn and soybean oil? What does your diet and activity look like.?

    TRT and stacking for weight loss

    This is a massive topic. The first step for high BP is almost always adding potassium and losing unnecessary fat. Sensible weightlifting without overtraining is key. I recommend the book The Perfect Health Diet as a starting point for diet. Eat within an 8 hour window as much as possible. Avoid...

    The Link Between Muscle Quality and Erectile Dysfunction

    Myokines don't get much attention but are likely a big factor here as well. Muscles are effectively endocrine organs.

    I’ve gave in and started a cycle after lots of TRT frustration. Can I PCT off altogether or back on TRT

    Regarding training, overtraining and short-term extreme goals are very stressful in themselves and can cause a lot of problems because the body is in a constant state of stress. I also think 18 months of consistency toward any goal is a good timeframe and mindset to have. I say 18 months because...

    I’ve gave in and started a cycle after lots of TRT frustration. Can I PCT off altogether or back on TRT

    I used to come off of TRT for two months out of the year. Some things I learned that might be relevant for you. Don't expect to recover as quickly as you do on AAS. I would adopt a training protocol where you never do max effort reps and you may also want to go to a 9 day week for your training...

    Does Cypionate burn?

    Where are you injecting? I have occasionally had something similar when injecting in stomach fat, but not in the shoulders.

    Personal Nandrolone Experience

    Thanks for the report. Some things to consider... If you have access to a clinic that has a Hyperbaric Chamber, that can help with dizziness. The high pressure version is a standard treatment for people recovering from stroke, and a friend of mine who used it said it was the single biggest...

    First set of Follow Up Labs since Starting TRT. Looking for Feedback

    Ok, there are other things on the ED front like beet root powder for nitric oxide for example, however the libido issue sounds like you've overshot to the upside on some aspect of Testosterone, so letting it come down and then titrating up only if necessary and after libido has returned seems...

    First set of Follow Up Labs since Starting TRT. Looking for Feedback

    What else are you doing to prevent ED? That is one of the things T alone is least likely to fix, and in cases like yours where you are likely overdosed it can make it worse. Something in the Viagra family is an obvious first step but there are lots of other things as well.

    Benefits Add Up for Regular Aspirin Use

    When I looked into this, the affect of aspirin lasts for several days at least, so intermittent dosing makes sense. Also, from what I can tell, the bleeding risk is way overblown. People have been taking 81 per day for decades with no apparent issues. I take 325mg immediate release 2-3 times per...

    American men are hungry for injectable T: A legion of new health clinics are serving it up

    Something I've observed that may be driving some of the "more is better" mentality is that many people (mostly men) do their gym protocols in a manner that essentially comes down to "try harder", which is what the 1-2 sets to failure approach boils down to. This will work to some degree for the...

    Oxandrolone (Anavar) Medical Uses- Presentation Attached

    So are you saying Oxandrolone suppresses estradiol (which I've never heard anyone else report) or that it suppressed your Testosterone and that in turn suppressed estradiol?

    Lithium

    The anti-aging author and doctor, Dr. Sandra Kaufmann is a huge proponent of lithium. She covers it in one of her books I think and has spoken about it on several podcasts.

    Blood panel, how's mine look?

    If one has both HCG and Kisspeptin on hand, is there a case for alternating them by injecting each once per week? Are they potentially doing similar but slightly different and complimentary/synergistic things?

    Any Testosterone Propionate Compounding Pharmacies left?

    An observation...There have been several posters here over the years (the most recent one was about a year ago I think) who reported excellent results injecting at very long intervals, every three weeks in one case I remember. Of course there were people here who said that couldn't be true, but...

    HCG induced aromatase down regulation?

    I've had what could be a similar situation although I can't directly tie it to the HCG. I can definitely say that HCG does not necessarily rise E2. Mine was rock bottom for a while on test and HCG. I thought maybe something else was blocking aromatase like melatonin or Cialis, but maybe your...

    Is it time for TRT?

    Since you're trying for a child, I would say that it is essential to try Clomid/Enclomiphene or HCG first. Also note that your symptoms (including low T) could be due to things other than hormones, particularly some sort of chronic infection such as lyme disease. You could also have some sort of...

    Advice on where to find trustworthy peptides

    Several things: - I agree with Nelson on Peptide Sciences. I've used them for years. I have also used nootropic source. - I have also used Phase4 (max-supplement.com) for transdermal patches for BPC. They have sketchy overtones, but I have had great results. I have no issue with injections in...

    Blood panel, how's mine look?

    What are you referring to here? Also, have you checked E2 at your current lower dose? I too seem to feel better at lower doses but my E2 has been too low, at least on paper. I'm becoming more intrested in the E2 injections.

    Oxandrolone Decreasing Abdominal Fat

    I mention it in the context of minimizing T suppression for those who are not on anything else, similar to the protocols that combine it with oral T. I agree that Oxandrolone alone is likely a better thing to try first before jumping into TRT if gym/body comp are the primary goals.

    Oxandrolone Decreasing Abdominal Fat

    The net takeaway seems like more evidence that men looking to start TRT solely for gym/body composition reasons might want to consider enclomiphene/oxandrolone to start with, although at a lower dose and focused on the post-training anabolic window.

    Indirect way of monitoring E2 without blood test?

    A best I can tell, higher E2 is better for me (higher being above rock bottom) but libido is really not an issue for me. Some people are high responders to DHT and similar substances but as far as I can tell I'm not. Creatine also supposedly raises DHT, but I suspect moderate rises are offset by...

    Yes. It's just like when you put a muscle in a cast. It/They atrophy from lack of use

    Feeling pretty sick following this mornings shots ...

    I agree with Phil. Also, in many years of observing the hormone space, AIs seem to be the single highest risk for causing major hard-to-resolve issues, so doing other things, like splitting dosages, adjusting dosages, changing ester/formulation, and using other things that have a mild AI affect...

    Indirect way of monitoring E2 without blood test?

    Another option is to supplement things that act like and AI such as Zinc, melatonin and Cialis, but which don't seem to have the excessive and unpredictable downsides of AIs, and go by symptoms from there. I have the opposite problem of trying to raise E2 so I have been on the lookout to avoid...

    Pharmacokinetic Profile of Testosterone Suspension: A Case Study

    If soreness is your primary issue, it’s possible that lack of anabolism is part of the problem, but it sounds like your protocol should be doable without much soreness. Jumping to Oxandrolone before ruling out some other fundamental issues seems a bit premature so before you jump to that I would...

    Pharmacokinetic Profile of Testosterone Suspension: A Case Study

    I would try it and see. A lot will depend on your how recovery-friendly your lifting protocol is. I (almost) never do a set to failure, but I do a lot of near-maximal sets and I have found that this massively reduces the recovery time needed while also letting me do far more near-maximal volume...
