    DHT: How High is Too High

    I find it strange that your lab report range would be ok with zero progesterone https://blog.healthmatters.io/2018/08/17/progesterone-in-men-definitionreference-ranges/ Seems like yours are optimal. In my lab report they calculated the ratio of progesterone to estradiol. Meaning hormone...

    DHT: How High is Too High

    I think truly impervious to serum DHT is muscle tissue. Not so for DHT derivates.

    DHT: How High is Too High

    Was thinking the same regarding progesterone: what is the proper level along with TRT. There is a correlation with age (up) and DHT (up) and progesterone & T (down). And I believe that serum DHT can reduce estrogenic activity, which is also relevant for skin hair follicles.

    DHT: How High is Too High

    I think to remember that if men were given DHT that it yielded reduced T levels. The question is what happens if that natural feedback loop is not working because of exogenous T.

    DHT: How High is Too High

    I'm not sure if there is a study that looked at elevated DHT in relation to T and hair loss. I can imagine that serum DHT can add up to the DHT produced within tissues. The experiments with DHT gel somehow show that serum DHT has an effect. That's similar to the claims about estrogen being a...

    TRT Numbers

    I only got 2 pumps prescribed. My TT was around 300 24h post application. Based on the age stratified TT levels, here they say everything is fine. .... We had here posts, where they measured after 24h and there was a big drop in levels, contrary to the studies. That's why I suggested to apply in...

    TRT Numbers

    This time apply the gel before your appointment in the morning. You could also ask to test your DHT, it might be just fine contrary to what others claim. It's not proven that one needs high end or above T levels for successful TRT.

    Beard growth/face changes and TRT protocol - just me?

    Maybe the relevant difference is the level of estrogens. You probably didn't test it on both protocols?

    THC - indica for sleep?

    https://thecompleteherbalguide.com/entries/anxiety-stress/herbalguide-natural-sedatives/ One can get a tincture like tinctura sedativa. Also herbal drugs can have side effects, the effects are often milder than pharmaceutical drugs. If you cannot get good sleep, imo, it's better to use a...

    WARNING: Do not believe Internet "gurus" proclaiming no need to manage hematocrit on TRT

    @madman or @Nelson Vergel can you access the full article and maybe share some details? I cannot believe the statements in the abstract, e.g. I would think that any man would see an increase of hematocrit with TRT.

    Aromasin

    Probably best to act only if you have high E2 symptoms, especially if you cannot get the "sensitive" E2 test. @Nelson Vergel provides all the accurate testings. Unfortunately I cannot make use of his great service because I'm in Europe like you.

    Aromasin

    That sounds reasonable. Your TT is high, then your TE can be high too. Didn't your Dr recommend dropping the AI?

    TRT in men in their Nineties

    That's great! What @Cataceous wrote makes sense, it's reasonable. My gut says, if it's working smoothly, don't try to fix it. On the other hand, blood markers don't show the full picture. ... Then again, you are 93 yrs. For how long have you been on TRT?

    Advice About Hematocrit and TRT Dose

    One can inject e.g. 125mg of TU per week which results theoretically in the same hormone fluctuation as ED TC injections. Yes

    Aromasin

    Did you try without HCG? Not everybody needs it. Imo you could adjust your doses to achieve free T within normal range. E2 should then come down too and you could discontinue the AI. It's trial and error.

    DHT Cream Plus Testosterone Propionate = Major Libido Boost

    Update on my 5mg Oxandrolone daily. For me the gym benefits lasted maybe 3-5 weeks. This diminishing returns seem normal for AAS cycles, however, I hoped with the small dose and the daily fluctuations the effects would remain. I was wondering if the same happened to you guys who do use TP...

    Thank you for the explanation of immunoassays. Didn't know that. Means I will pause taking Oxandrolone in order to obtain a reliable measurement.

    Yes, 125mg TU per week. It's a health blood check, not a sports doping test.

    Anavar (Oxandrolone) Blood Levels Increased by Caffeine

    @Nelson Vergel I'm currently taking oxandrolone and going to have a serum T test soon. Will oxandrolone skew the standard European testosterone test?

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

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