    I thought I read in Nelson’s video the most effective dosage to restore testicular atrophy and intretesticular t production was 500iu every other day.

    I definitely thought the timing was off for testing. I was in the office because I was having some other issues so he decided to test while I was there. I’m going to talk to him about daily injections when I see him in a week or so. I think I want it do it regardless as I willnsgsy within the...

    My journey

    I hear other guys talk about it being rough before getting dialed in. I keep trying to remind myself of that. The past few weeks I am feeling even worse than before I started. It’s been putting a major strain on my personal life. I’ve been arguing with my wife a lot and I feel like I’m having...

    Thanks for the link Vince, I remember watching that before but now I’ve watched that about 3 times again. Am I correct in assuming that the addition of HCG to my protocol could boost my T levels ? That’s what I got from it and hope that’s the case. I’m really feeling crappy lately

    @Gman86 the HCG is being added on top of the 80mg weekly of test cypionate. Not sure how much HCG yet, I’m still waiting to hear from the pharmacy. The labs that i posted , 9/5 was prior to treatment and 10/24 was actually taken 12 hrs after an injection. I can only imagine how low I’m dropping...

    Thanks man I appreciate it. I guess what is frustrating me is I obviously need more T but instead of raising my dose, the doctor is starting me on HCG and retesting me in 6 weeks. I’m feeling pretty crappy right now and after feeling a bit of relief for a few weeks, it’s really hard to feel...

    @Vince dont you have low SHBG as well ? I’m going to ask my doctor to raise my dose and go to daily injections, see what he says. If he refuses , do you think I should seek a second opinion ?

    I went to see dr melograna and started T cypionate injections. It’s been about 8 weeks now and it’s not what I expected. I felt good for the first few weeks, now I’m feeling just as bad as when i started. Might be looking for a second opinion. I made a thread here if anyone cares to give there...

    My journey

    From all the reading I’ve been doing , I’m under the impression my SHBG being on the low end is causing me to not sustain good T levels. I saw some guys with similar numbers are doing daily or every other day injections.

    My journey

    So I spoke with the doctor and he made a comment that maybe we shouldn’t continue therapy ? Not sure that’s a option for me at This point. I thought for sure when I saw my T was still in the low 300’s he would increase the dose ? So we went away with him wanting to start me on HCG injections...

    Doctors in MD ?

    Only thing I wonder is do they try to optimize your T levels like a lot of the anti aging clinics ? I've been reading that most doctors and insurance companies won't prescribe replacement unless your under 300. I'm a 497 but I know my quality could improve from being a bit higher.

    Thirty Six Years Old, Testicular Cancer, Low Testosterone

    Unfortunately I was only tested for total testosterone and free testosterone, those were what I posted. I'm sure my doctor wasn't worried about exploring my situation much at all because I had to ask her if she would check my levels.
