    I can say with 100% certainty for every 3 weeks on hcg 500eod I go off the fourth week libido go crazy. Now I am going below 500 even below 250. Trying Ed or eod basically playing around with hcg trying to go the lowest dose as I am more and more believing that 500 eod is too much for me.

    Tested my son for testosterone

    I don’t see test timing is mentioned here. testosterone test should take place early morning I think before 10 clock after good sleep. Testosterone moves up and down and can go down to 400 or less depending on the range. I think the standard to make sure it’s low take two test in the morning...

    Can HcG alone (withOUT T-cypionate) help sex drive & increase overall testosterone?

    i heard hcg monotherapy doesn’t work for most and if it does it will for sometime only. I guess you may still find some who had success with it. For me it did nothing, like injecting water. After one week or two I had two days only my morning wood was supeeeeeeeeeeeer. The best I have ever had...

    How to improve penile sensitivity?

    I am thinking this could be the issue at least to some level, because when I do my lab test before my injection my estradiol is already at the top of the reference. So maybe it does help reducing a bit my t injection. I have done some calculation and 16mg EOD for me may solve this. Also will...
