    What do you mean that it took a year to recover. I have never felt great on TRT but after my last blood donation, I almost fainted and got very dizzy, sweaty. Ever since then, I feel terrible with lack of memory and energy.

    Thyroid Results

    My current TRT protocol is 40 mg t Cypionate twice per week and 300 units of HCG twice per week. My hemoglobin has been high even with blood donations every two months; so doctor requested that I reduce cypionate and HCG. Starting next week, I am reducing T to 66 mg per week and HCG to 500 mg...

    Thyroid Results

    All - recently had thyroid tests done and t4 direct was .77 (range .82 -1.77), TSH was 3.65(range .45 - 4.5) and t3 uptake was 23 (range 24-39%). Dr says things look fine; any advice would be appreciated. I am on TRT but still have brain fog and am tired.

    HIGH ESTROGEN and E2 LOW ESTROGEN SYMPTOMS (FOR MEN)

    If E2 is low due to AI, how long will it take to rebound once you are off AI?

    How long will HCG last in the fridge?

    I just asked my Doctor the same question last week. He said that after 8 weeks that HGC reduces in its effectiveness. He said that it is best to buy new after 8 weeks to keep protocol consistent.

    Updated Labs Looks Good - I think.

    Vince - I have had my SHBG tested a number of times over the past 6 months at is has always been low. Not sure why but SHBG is in the teens.

    Updated Labs Looks Good - I think.

    I was on and am still on 1 testosterone injection of 100 mg every 7 days and 350 iu HCG twice per week. No AI at this time but the dr prescribed if needed. I would like to change to 50 mg test twice per week but want dr approval. I am currently waiting for dr to review results and advise.

    Thanks for the advice. I will look into getting my free estrodial tested. Are you thinking I should start an AI or very my injection protocal.

    Fifty - you are correct, I had to look at the prescription. It 50,000 one time per week.

    I am taking 10,000 once per week. I thought it funny that you only take once per week but that seems normal from what I read.

    No idea on the hematocrit. Maybe I was dehidrated. I was diagnosed with sleep apnea and use a CPAP machine which has helped with sleep. My DHEA SO4 was 481 in May 2018 with a range of 95 to 530.

    Updated Labs Looks Good - I think.

    Hi Guys. So I just had labs taken after being on my new protocol for about 5 weeks. I wanted to test a little early as my previous test had my Hematocrit at 57. Overall I am pleased with my test results but I still am very foggy headed. I wanted to share my results to see if anyone has any...

    Has anyone else had a change in how they react to HCG - confirmed by Defy

    Thank you. It appears that every 3.5 days would make more sense than back to back injections.

    Has anyone else had a change in how they react to HCG - confirmed by Defy

    When taking HCG twice a week, are you taking every 3.5 days. My dr said to take 350 iu HCG the two days following the 100mg t injection. I am wondering if it would be better to spread them out to every 3.5 days.

    LIVING IN OVERREGULATED UPSTATE NY-HOW DO I GET LABWORK?

    I live in upstate ny as well. I am actually north of Syracuse. The Labcorp in Watertown completed the labs without issue from a draw request from Defy. I was very hesitant so I ordered 1 lab for starters and it worked fine. I then ordered a full panel. I have recently traveled to nyc to see...

    Hematocrit

    Agreed, but I had not started the anastrozole at that time.

    Hematocrit

    No. It dropped prior to changing my protocal. It dropped on the daily injections with no change in protocal. Well there was a small change, about a month ago, I reduced my daily injection from 14 mg to 10 mg. Hard to believe that such a small change would decrease estrodial from 42 to 9 and...

    Hematocrit

    My hematocrit was around 52 while injecting 100 mg 1 time per week. I was on this protocal for a short time as I have low SHBG and thought that more frequent injections would keep estrodial in check.

    Hematocrit

    So I have been taking daily injections (14mg) of testosterone cypionate for 3 months and recently had blood work done. My hematocrit is 57 and I donated blood the week before my blood was drawn. Really high, right. At the time of the labs, I was on t only. Actually, my new dr ran all the...

    Can High Estradiol Cause Mental Fogginess and Fatigue ?

    All - been taking daily testosterone injection of 14mg per day (roughly 100mg per week). SHBG is 15, testosterone is 600 and estrodial is 42.1 (range of 8 to 35). Feel terrible; foggy headed, low energy. Can estrodial of 42 be the cause. Have ordered a full panel through defy but was curious...

    Updated Results, Low SHBG

    Thanks for the post. Yes, I am fine with daily injections. I was thinking of starting with every other day injections to see how I feel. I am in the process of becoming a patient with Defy. I am hopeful they can set me up with a good protocal.

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.
