I was under the impression that supplementing with DHEA could in fact raise testosterone levels. That's why I started using DHEA but didn't get that effect. It did help me mentally though. Seems like the DHEA raised your T a bit.

Yup - i just read that the other day. My IGF 1 was top of the range so maybe this is the cause for low SHBG. I wonder if they would help people with high SHGB? I've cut back on the peptides so I can see if that makes a difference. At least I know the peptides are legit! It seems as if the...

Nelson I think you are correct with that notion. Most believe it to be the other way around though. Could it be somehow that T injected sub Q flows around our bodies longer before it binds to receptors? If that even makes sense. When I injected IM my TT was higher and FT was lower than my sub q...

It seems like physically I do great on TRT but mentally I do not. My cortisol is on the low normal side. My pregnenolone is low but progesterone is upper range. I started taking Dhea a while back and felt great but when i add the t it messes me up some how. I did feel great not too long ago for...

Your correct on both. I stopped the AI and switched to sub q and my e is at 38 with same symptoms. I'm guessing I'm over and under shooting my e sweet spot.

Nelson it feels like I'm anabolics!! I've done them in high doses many moons ago. The only other supplement I'm on is MOD grf and Imap. I feel pumped all day and my strength is crazy in the gym. I'm not sure why my body is responding like this to TrT.

Guys what are your thoughts on these numbers? My protocol at the time; test cyp 35-40 mgs , mon wed fri and no AI. My SHBG tested at 17 a while ago. I do not feel optimal with these numbers. My strength is insane at the gym and sex drive is good as well but don't feel great if that makes any...
