    Surprising blood results . . . so is this it?

    Hello Madman and Systemlord; thank you both very much for your timely input - I suspected as much but needed to hear it yet again. Madman had kindly sent a link to private blood testing that's available in Ontario through Dynacare. I intend to continue the TRT another couple of months and then...

    Surprising blood results . . . so is this it?

    I'm 68 and started TRT on the gel therapy on Dec 20/23. I was on that for 3.5 months before it was finally determined that it wasn't working right. I then went on TE injections on April 6, taking a rate of 10 mgs per day, injecting 40 mgs every 4th day (equivalent to 70mgs per week). Only...

    Advice needed. TRT started

    Wow Gman, that is some post, I can see that you truly must have become obsessed with this topic since the age of 13 . . . your research is very detailed. Nobody is willingly going to go from a diet that makes them feel optimal, to a diet that makes them feel less optimal, unless the happiness...

    Advice needed. TRT started

    Hello Gman, I hope you are well. Very often being goal oriented means that you have to picture yourself in the future in a certain place, and if it's a desirable place, to then work backwards to find out what steps are necessary today and in the coming period to expedite your arrival at the...

    Advice needed. TRT started

    I'm 68, started 70mg TE one month ago to combat what I think is premature fatigue when active. I don't know much about T at all. But that doesn't mean I don't know about life - I do. I had cancer and open heart surgery; I often wonder how or where I got it from. It's difficult to categorize...

    Different brands of T-Cyp give me varying results

    Good to hear that you're satisfied with your Hikma TE. Good luck getting your TRT dialed in, I can appreciate how complex it is for a young man who wants T and to still remain fertile.

    Bausch Health has discontinued production of Delatestryl® in Canada

    Madman, you are a wealth of information and I thank you for that. It's pleasant to know that the option of enanthate is still open in generic form. BUT . . . what if, for example, there were a problem in sourcing the raw materials such that Hikma suffered the same fate as Bausch? Would Health...

    Different brands of T-Cyp give me varying results

    Gman, are you happy with the Hikma TE? I think this is going to become a big question now that Delatestryl's days are numbered . . .

    Bausch Health has discontinued production of Delatestryl® in Canada

    FunkOdyssey, I was just reading older posts about Hikma E and saw that both you and GMAN86 were big users of that product. I'm pleased to see that you think highly of the Hikma E, since that will likely become my default. In searching the internet, I was alarmed at some of the negative...

    Bausch Health has discontinued production of Delatestryl® in Canada

    Looks like we are stuck with the generic Testosterone Enanthate manufactured by Hikma. This is disappointing; I just started the Delatestyrl and was beginning to get some good results. It highlights one concern I had of TRT, which is that I'd become dependant on outside sources of T . . . and...

    The benefits of low dose T injections . . .

    Ideally, my current protocol (70mg test cyp split twice a week) will help me stay fit, strong, trim, healthy, sexual for the next 20 or 30 years from 59 years old to 80+ instead of the usual decay that most of us get. Those are my thoughts exactly. I was driving with my wife when an older man...

    The benefits of low dose T injections . . .

    Gell, that sounds GREAT to me; my goal through the whole TRT episode is to have basically what you're getting. I want to work my way through fatiguing too quickly with exercise and work, then to recover a bit quicker from pesky little injuries, and to finally change my body composition by...

    TRT and Gout questions

    There's a hereditary disposition to it; your sibling also had it which is a strong indicator. Some people get it, some don't.

    The benefits of low dose T injections . . .

    Thanks for the response. I suspect that I'm much the same as you regarding drug responses. I've always had a strong response to small amounts that the doctors say should not work. I've had a bad back for many years. I'll sometimes take 1/2 an aspirin a day for a two week period, and after a...

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
