    Underdosed generic Perrigo Test Cyp?

    I had the same issue with Perrigo a few years ago. If I recall correctly, I posted my experience here or somewhere else. The members were not believing me because they said there's no way a huge pharma company will under dose but I know my body. It turned out my labs proved my assumptions. I do...

    B12, thyroid, and best calcium supplement

    My vitamin d levels are low for my taste. They are at 40 (consuming 11,000 iu's daily) they are usually between 70 to 80. I am currently taking 14,000 iu's daily with k2 mk7 120mcg and 5 mg k2 mk4. I will also be checking my vit d levels. Hopefully this fixes my low calcium problem. I though...

    B12, thyroid, and best calcium supplement

    How's it going everyone? I have 2 concerns. I want to double check my knowledge. My first understanding is that vitamin b12 does not interfere with thyroid testing - only biotin does. Is this true or should all b vitamins be avoided to have accurate thyroid testing? Secondly, I currently have...

    3 months on Hydrogel Testosterone

    My issue was blow drying it. Like the pharmacist told me it's best to let it air dry. I have noticed that I don't get the white film that I was getting when blow drying it. I am assuming it is now penetrating.

    I didn't think about it being absorbed a lot more by spreading it on a larger area.

    3 months on Hydrogel Testosterone

    If I do decided to try the commercial brand I will definitely report back. The members who said heat from the blow dryer might affect the penetration were correct. I decided to verify with Empower and one of the pharmacist who prepares this medication said that it's best to let it dry. She...

    3 months on Hydrogel Testosterone

    I hope my insurance covers it or least some it. I decided to start with Hydrogel because it had great results. My doctor was on board with the change since I wanted to increase libido.

    3 months on Hydrogel Testosterone

    I have decided to let it air dry. You also bring up a good point about starting with a high concentration and then going to a lower one. About 10 years ago I was using Axiron on my armpits. With four pumps of it my total testosterone rose to 450. or so. I also use pregnenolone from empower...

    3 months on Hydrogel Testosterone

    I just finished reading into the ingredients and it's alcohol free. It uses a polymer network along with natural enhancers to allow testosterone to penetrate.

    3 months on Hydrogel Testosterone

    I also used their testosterone cream at 50 mg/ml per click with injections but my levels dropped. Then I decided to try hydrogel since it has a better absorption but apparently blow drying it could be the issue.

    3 months on Hydrogel Testosterone

    Maybe that's the issue. I never thought that at a medium level of heat it could stop absorption. I will stop blow drying it. Would it be detrimental if I air fan it? What I was doing before was actually blow drying my groin at medium heat for 2 mins, apply it, then blow dry it again at medium...

    Factors that Can Improve Testosterone Gel Absorption

    I wanted to try out test cream with my test/hcg injections. I was prescribed test cream 50 mg/ml, 1 click (0.25ml) which equals to 12.5mg if I did my math correctly. Is the hydrogel better than test cream?

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.
