    Coming off TRT cold turkey after only three weeks

    Balls were pretty atrophied, have since grown a little bit but not back to full size. I am still producing a generous amount of semen, wondering if that’s a good sign.

    Coming off TRT cold turkey after only three weeks

    Hello all, I was on a protocol of 150 mg cyp (50mg 3x / week ) and 500 iu hcg for approx 3 weeks. After the third week, i decided to stop due to my age (22m) and the anxiety it was causing.

    DHEA cures my libido but bloats me like crazy

    I went out and picked up some 5mg sublingual capsules from Douglas labs. I took only two today (10mg), alongside some dandelion root. Bloating has gotten tremendously better, but I'm not getting the amazing confidence, energy, and libido boost from DHEA like I got at previous doses. I will...

    Pregnenolone CRUSHED my libido

    That's what I get for blindly following a cookie-cutter online clinic protocol. Truth is I may need DHEA after all, my levels were barely in range. That said, I'm too much of an anxious wreck about starting TRT to start throwing everything in at once, so I'm going to be patient and stick with...

    Pregnenolone CRUSHED my libido

    it was just the compounded 25 mg pregnenolone from empower. Yes i’m on my fifth day now. I just took .125 mg of an anastrazol to hopefully ease what i’m now thinking are high e2 symptoms. We’ll see how that helps — i realize this is risky and i’m definitely jumping the gun with an AI this early...

    Pregnenolone CRUSHED my libido

    That’s definitely the plan from here on out. Any idea as to when i can expect the pregnenolone’s effects to clear from my system? Or if there’s anything I can do to speed up that process?
