    Steroid abuse by men leads to long-lasting impaired testicular function

    I was always a little confused about the difference between steroid use verses testosterone. If steroids are a form of synthetic forms of testosterone, then is that what I am injecting with testosterone cypionate? If it's the same, at what levels does it become steroid abuse verses replacement?

    Needing Relationship Advice: Should I just End it?

    Sounds like you made the right decision. It wasn't working and it wasn't making you happy. Wishing and hoping won't change reality. I would recommend a mini vacation, even for a few days, just to allow yourself some time to reflect and make a plan for the future, which by the way, should focus...

    Finasteride + HRT

    I started Finasteride over twenty years ago when I started losing my hair. Didn't start using TRT until years later.

    Finasteride + HRT

    I inject about 65 ml twice a week, along with HCG 500 ml twice a week, along with the daily cialis. I was taking 1/2 mg of Anastrozole twice a week as well, but stopped it about a month ago, after reading so much negative stuff about it.

    Losing hair on head while on TRT plus anastrozole: Causes?

    You maybe onto something here. I have wondered why DHT only seems to affect the scalp, and even there, not the sides, just the top. Whereas DHT seems to promote hair growth elsewhere on a man's body. Doesn't make sense. Why would it only stop hair growth on the top, crown and front of the head...

    Finasteride + HRT

    I've been using finasteride for over 20 years. I split a 5mg tablet into four, so each dose is 1.25. Begin using it as it's cheap, whereas buying Propecia was expensive. I been using it for so long, I don't know if it's affecting me or not. I can get good firm erections, but don't ejaculate a...

    What are your experiences with PT-141? (as an aphrodisiac)

    Wow! I'm going to have to try this! I'm lucky if I can have sex twice a week. I can get erect, but no amount of stimulation brings on an orgasm or ejaculation.

    Testicle Size: Testosterone Injections vs hCG vs T gel

    Thanks, but I still can't understand those charts. It looks like size increased, but by how much? It shows a number followed a + and another number. Doesn't make any sense to me.

    Stopping Testosterone Injections for Enclomiphene

    I tried a break from Testosterone injections to see reestablish a baseline and see if I could restart my own production of T. Doctor had me stop T and take 50 mg of Clomid for 5 days, then off for 2 days, then repeat. Also, injected HCG at 500 ml twice a week. Did this cycle for 6 weeks. It...

    No Gym: Quarantine check in and learnings.

    It's coming along OK. I've gotten some dumbells, incline bench, chin-up bar, jump rope, mats and a couple of mirrors. Don't have a lot of money to buy much more right now, but it's got a start. I definitely feel better about having a designated area to work out. I'd like to get a treadmill and...

    No Gym: Quarantine check in and learnings.

    Thanks, for the reality check. I think that's exactly what I needed. A kick in the butt. Like you, I have fallen into a funk, practically stopped exercising, eating way too much junk, staying home and feeling depressed. With this latest wave of closures, who knows when the gyms will reopen again...

    Sounds like you've got a fully equipped gym in your basement. Wish I had the room to set something like that up, or knew someone who did. It helps to have someone to workout with.

    HPTA Restart while continuing Propecia

    Thanks. I don't have a wife and am well past the point in my life where I would even want to have any more children, but I hear what you are saying. Definitely more of an issue for a young man, especially if he is wanting kids.

    Are erections on tadalafil normal while we sleep?

    Ever since I've been taking it, I have many erections during the night. Sometimes I wake up and I'm so hard, it almost hurts. Also, morning wood every morning. Got to say, that I really like it.

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.
