    New to T/HCG - Some Questions

    My weekly dose is 120mg (.6ml) T and 1500IU (.75ml) of HCG. When doing EOD I was at about 425iu of HCG (.21ml) and 34mg of T (.17ml). I noticed almost immediately the EOD dose lowered my energy levels substantially. But the strange part is my T, E2, and SHBG levels were the same when doing the...

    New to T/HCG - Some Questions

    Got new labs (taken at trough) after switching to EOD injections to combat the SHBG issues. Boy this is frustrating. The thyroid panel was an add-on just to see if that was working properly because I'm in a bad funk right now. I have my follow-up appt with my Dr. on Thursday so I'm hoping he's...

    Ejaculate changes on Clomid - High E2?

    I'm glad you posted this. I'm not Clomid but I have used it before. I'm on a "standard" protocol of T + HCG but the exact same issue has been affecting me recently. It's happened before but it's been somewhat rare. I don't think it's an issue with Clomid specifically. The only thing I've found...

    Changed to subQ, why do I feel so damn tired?

    I can't speak to the IM vs SubQ but I had a similar experience while changing up my protocol. I was injecting E3D and had energy through the roof, zero appetite, and erections were great. Within a few days of changing to EOD, I experienced your symptoms. Energy dropped off a cliff to the point I...

    New to T/HCG - Some Questions

    So I shifting to EOD injections and it seems my energy level was cut in half. The E3D injections, for whatever reason, caused me to basically be hyper all day and want to workout. The past week or so I've felt like taking a nap mid afternoon. Surely the different injection schedule wouldn't...

    How will I know my regiment is enough? Am I just not made for TRT?

    Hey, i'm only chiming in because I know that practice and I *think* you might be on something similar to me which is 200mg/mL in a vial that's 5mL. My dose is .3mL twice a week which I'm adjusting to three times a week(.2mL x 3) due to SHBG issues. My 5mL vial should last me 16-ish injections or...

    New to T/HCG - Some Questions

    A few quick observations. I don't know if I'm being paranoid but I figured I'd mention this. I have always had fine, thin hair. No issues in terms of balding only an ever so light receding hairline where I part my hair which I attributed to age, nothing abnormal and was never a concern for me...

    I am always hot: Is this a high estradiol symptom?

    Add me to the low E and low SHBG group. I sweat like crazy, especially my face. I wear a suit for work and it's been an absolute nightmare. I've honestly considered quitting because of it. It's so bad I've gotten a prescription for glycopyrrolate and that only helps slightly if I use a fairly...

    New to T/HCG - Some Questions

    That's my understanding as well. My fear has always been gyno as I'm overweight and some of the fat is in my chest and the last thing I want is that area getting bigger. Is this the same as the E sensitive test? That's correct. I try to be as close to 3.5 days as possible but the week of...

    New to T/HCG - Some Questions

    Thanks guys. I'll send the labwork to my dr. and up my dosage. What T level should I be expecting at the 3.5D mark just before the next shot? Or is the higher/more frequent dose a way to address the SHBG? Any thoughts on if the low SHBG and low E are causing any of the mood/weight issues?

    New to T/HCG - Some Questions

    Hey guys, I'm not sure if this is the correct place for this but I thought I'd try to get some feedback on my situation. I've experimented some form of hormone replacement in the past: Pellets - expensive and the Dr. seemed to be about $$$/Too difficult to keep up with Clomid - higher T numbers...

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.
