    Low Test Levels & Lingering Symptoms at 24 After Teen Cycle —Clomid/Enclomiphene Worth Trying?

    Using steroids at this young of an age, likely led to your issues, as the male endocrine reproductive system is not fully developed at a young age of 18. It’s perfectly normal for your natural hormone levels to be highest in the early morning hours and decline later in the day. As far as your...

    About to Start a New Protocol

    Things got overly complicated too quickly, splitting your dose up twice weekly would’ve been more reasonable. It never ceases to amaze me how many times endo’s fail at something as simple as treating a man with low testosterone.

    Gel vs injection

    I prefer oral testosterone over gel and injectables.

    Is Fiber Really Essential?

    You have to look at it in a simpler way. Fiber carries nutrients and amino acids and so does meat only meat does it better. There’s nothing that vegetables have that meat doesn’t and in fact, meat is more nutrient dense than any vegetable on earth. I’ve heard some members say that you need...

    Is Fiber Really Essential?

    Thanks for the link to the YouTube video @FunkOdyssey. Too bad my video isn’t on YouTube. There’s this young woman at work that has terrible facial acne. I’ve been meaning to tell her what might be causing it, fiber. I hear so many stories of women going on the carnivore diet and their lifelong...

    Is Fiber Really Essential?

    The key things people say about the carnivore diet is you get nutritional deficiencies. Theoretically a carnivore diet theoretically does provide all essential nutrients. You can’t say that of any plant food. There’s not a plant food on earth that provides all essential nutrients. Animal foods...

    Starting TRT Soon

    I’m not buying what you’re selling. Not when the carnivore diet has been shown to have reverse 98% of disease in participants. The positive stories keep coming in, personal hand accounts. The Harvard study.

    A diet with lower inflammatory in mind would be the carnivore diet which can reverse chronic disease.

    22 yr Old Low E2, 0 Libido

    It’s possible that you have an aromatase insufficiency, lacking enough enzymes needed to convert testosterone to estrogen. Before when you had a natural hormone production, your testicles were making estrogen as well as from aromatase. Now you’re just getting it from one source. It’s HCG or...

    HCG to combat testicular atrophy and low libido

    This is the reason for your low libido, not a lack of hCG.

    Strating hcg after being on trt 2 years

    A lot of men can’t even tolerate hCG, treatment should be individualized and not cookie cutter.

    Strating hcg after being on trt 2 years

    In the majority of cases, it is reversible. I was on TRT for eight years and came off and my testicles reached normal size within two weeks.
  13. Systemlord

    High Testosterone, is this expected?

    The skin on the testicles is six times thinner than that anywhere on the body. Scrotal applications give you the higher levels than anywhere else on the body. If you tested your DHT levels, they’ll be even higher. DHT levels can be in the several thousands.

    Starting TRT Soon

    You keep repeating the same thing over and over again, but provide no documentation why is above average hormone levels are bad. The men that have the problems on TRT are in the minority and you’ll find them right here on ExcelMale. The majority of men feel better above average levels. Maybe...

    Starting TRT Soon

    So we must create guidelines for everyone to cater to the minority? A 100 mg of testosterone cypionate per week protocol is a good starting point for anyone starting out on therapy. This typically achieves a midrange or slightly higher than midrange testosterone level, (excluding outliers) in...

    High estradiol and SHBG 10wks into TRT (was high on enclomiphene too) - long winded post sorry.

    Nothing is so one-sided in the hormone world. Response to an ester or delivery method is very individual and highly variable. Some men get much lower hormone levels on sub-Q, higher or lower estrogen, better or poor outcomes.

    DIY TRT - 1st Blood Draw

    Yeah, but you didn’t even try to go through insurance and then you start talking about costs, lol! When shopping for a doctor to manage your TRT, you should treat it more like a job interview and you’re the one doing the hiring.

    High estradiol and SHBG 10wks into TRT (was high on enclomiphene too) - long winded post sorry.

    No, SHBG has no influence on how much testosterone you’re producing in the testicles. SHBG is made in the liver. Luteinizing hormone and the response by the testicles and the adrenal glands determines how much Free T you’re producing. Now androgens lower SHBG and estrogen increases SHBG...

    Starting TRT Soon

    My second protocol on injectable TRT of 50 mg twice per week (100 mg total per week) got me a trough of 697 ng/dL, with a peak estimated somewhere at the top end of the ranges. According to you I was overdosed on this protocol? I’m not going to say it’s an overdose for anyone or everyone...

    Starting TRT Soon

    It’s been well known that some men, hyper metabolizers, in the minority, need three times the amount than you’re talking about to achieve hormone levels within the normal range. Response to a set number of mgs is highly variable person to person. He may be very sensitive to hormones and/or...

    High estradiol and SHBG 10wks into TRT (was high on enclomiphene too) - long winded post sorry.

    I would get the Free T higher, 20-25 or higher if you feel the added benefits and other parameters aren’t too far out of range. No mention of hemoglobin and hematocrit levels. Remember, a given hormone level on TRT doesn’t have the same effect as a natural level with the regulatory systems in...

    My HPTA recovery log: I have reversed my type 2 diabetes (SHBG 31/glucose 80) and may have never had hypogonadism!!

    I’ll bet 1 million bucks I can get better sperm parameters once I get my vitamin D levels higher.

    Your hormone levels are not at a steady state yet, that will take 42 days to achieve. Now sit back, relax and be patient.

    My HPTA recovery log: I have reversed my type 2 diabetes (SHBG 31/glucose 80) and may have never had hypogonadism!!

    I stopped vitamin C three months ago and it’s resolved a lot of my issues. After being off the vitamin C for three months, I went to the dealership for service and had a protein shake out of one of the machines. I felt the same symptoms as when I consume vitamin C. Nausea and feeling mentally...

    Starting TRT in Japan – 250mg Every 2 Weeks. Experiencing Bloating – Advice?

    These long-term success cases on this type of protocol are in the minority. These every two week protocols have higher rates of erythrocytosis. You’re basically shooting your hormone levels into the stratosphere, which is why you’re probably experiencing bloat. Your hormone levels are on a...

    Instant Blood Pressure Spike on Starting TRT

    I made the mistake of continuing my beta-blocker after starting TRT and experienced low blood pressure that I treated with overloading on iron which increases blood pressure. I always knew I was using excessive amounts of iron to treat an unknown medical condition.

    Instant Blood Pressure Spike on Starting TRT

    Come to think of it, your symptoms sound a lot like ODing on anastrozole. You weren't prescribed anastrozole were you?

    Instant Blood Pressure Spike on Starting TRT

    The feeling of being on meth isn't a benefit/side effect of TRT, you have something else going on that needs addressing.

    Fainting, High HCT, Low Ferritin — TRT Vet of 15+ Years Needs Help ASAP

    Your low ferritin may not be a bad thing. Your body may be trying to regulate the hemoglobin, hematocrit and red blood cells caused by the TRT by lowering the ferritin and may not be an issue. You could always change the delivery method to one that doesn't affect hematocrit and hemoglobin as...
