    Eric's Labs

    I have been putting things sporadically in other threads so I figured I would start a blood thread here to keep things consolidated. Also plan to update as I go along. These labs on just Clomid and nolva but have gone back to t injections TT 364 (348-1197) FT 9.9 (6.8-21.5) DHEA-s 419...

    Testosterone and Insomnia

    I wonder if it is in part as basic as "because that is how we function naturally" - Testosterone levels decrease throughout the day and night and peak in the morning. When we administer at night, it is not consistent with normal function and confuses other systems??? Just a thought

    Clomid and Cialis

    HbA1c is a lab test that shows the average level of blood sugar (glucose) over the previous 3 months. It shows how well you are controlling your diabetes. (it is more accurate than a single glucose reading)

    29 Medications That May Cause Adverse Interactions with Thyroid Drugs

    Read on stopthethyroidmadness that some folks crush and take NDT sublinguily. Anyone know if that truly works? If so it should help bypass any issues with absorbtion due to competing supplements.

    hCG Expiration . Can you freeze hCG?

    Wish I had known that. I had heard 45 days. Too expensive to throw out that early! I have heard you can check it with a pregnancy test strip to see if still active.

    Where do you feel your best?

    Nelson, it does suck. The past few months I have only been able to exercise sporadically. I can walk but more exertion than that and I am fried. Forget about compound lifts or even pull ups and dips. Damn near sends me into convulsions. I try and keep it simple and know it is just a matter...

    Where do you feel your best?

    I'm with you superdave. I spent too many years relying on benzos and I am paying the price now. I'm off them and having to face stress without a shield. I don't think meds are the answer. The Keys would help but I'm not leaving my kids with their mom lol. That actually brings up what I...

    Clomid and Cialis

    Are you coming off of a cycle? If not, I have been reading that many people experience great results without the potential for nasty side effects at 12.5 mg every day. Even my doctor prescribes only 50mg clomid 2x/week because he likes to mimic the pulsatile nature of LH and he says that he...

    Where do you feel your best?

    Is the consensus that Cabergoline is the best way to tweak Dopamine as Gene has mentioned? I know there are some pre-cursors but they make me very jittery since they also convert to noradrenaline and adrenaline. For instance, I took a low dose of tyrosine and I had a profound boost in my mood...

    cold toes from TRT

    I've only been back on TRT for about 2 weeks after a 2 month PCT attempt. The labs I had before wereduring that time and estradiol was good but it was not the sensitive test. If it is estradiol, the only thing I can think is that I have heard there can be an estrogen rebound after stopping...

    Anyone have painfully cold toes while on TRT? I had it before, but it faded after I tapered and attempted a restart, but I seen to notice it again now that I am back on. Any thoughts on what could be causing it?

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.
