    Weight gain, snoring and Upcoming doctors visit

    I had an at home sleep study done in September. The results were that while I had loud snoring my breathing and blood oxygen levels did not indicate sleep apnea. Looking back I was very anxious that night and barley slept which could have screws my results. I might need to have another study done.

    Dosage help

    Dosage help

    My usual Rx is 1cc of 1000mg/10ml test cyp once per week. That concentration of Test cyp is on back order so my pharmacy gave me a 2000mg/10ml concentration instead. Seeing how this solution is twice as strong as my usual Rx logic would say my dosage should be half of what I usually take, or...

    Is TRT right for me

    Before Clomid my T level was in the low 300's and after Clomid it was in the high 400's. I don't remember any of the specifics becuase at the time low T wasn't my focus, getting my sperm count and motility up and having a baby was all that mattered. I guess my next step should be a visit with...
