    Thinking of Buying a CPAP

    No, I've read a lot of frustrating reviews of people saying how long the process is to have a study done and that the insurance process is also a lot of hoops to jump through ... even though I have great insurance.

    Thinking of Buying a CPAP

    Great idea. BTW - I'm exactly 3.5 weeks into my TRT and this am I slept until 9am! Went to bed at 10:30 pm last night. I'm usually awake 5:30 am during the week and on weekends cannot sleep past 6:30 - 6:45. The weekend early rise has been frustrating for approx last 5 years. I'm wondering...

    high bp and shortness of breath

    How much Test EOD? Any AI and/or HCG? Does your PCP already know about your TRT protocol?

    Thinking of Buying a CPAP

    Excellent. I'm researching straight-up purchase vs insurance. I'm all for putting insurance to good use but this looks like a headache (pun intended)

    Thinking of Buying a CPAP

    Thanks. She's concerned because it's probably 2 or 3 times per week that the snoring is bad enough to disrupt her, however, she's concerned that a loud CPAP could be a 7 night disaster.

    Thinking of Buying a CPAP

    I already snore and, 3 weeks in on TRT, I've read that my snoring may get worse. My wife wants to know how loud the CPAP machine will be. I can't find any video reviews addressing this valid concern.

    Going off TRT for a clean break and maybe restart

    At 10 years on TRT, who am I to give you advice ... however, the name of the game is to get "optimized." So, in my honest opinion, 100mg twice a week seems like a lot my friend. I like the idea of at least halving that. Sounds like you're using a Clinic ... Life is short, so don't experiment...

    How often should you inject enanthate

    Can someone explain this logic? I'm not planning on HCG and would like to know the best T protocol without it. "I remember when I was a patient at Defy, Dr Saya told me without HCG I should inject cypionate EOD."

    IM Testosterone Given SubQ

    IM vs SubQ for Test injection I'm not following your malfunction experience. Are you extremely lean and can't gather any skin? Except for not capturing the the injector's window to the serum, this video is exactly how it's done and I can't think where you're going wrong.

    IM Testosterone Given SubQ

    I'm on the 75mg samples while the rep tries to sort out my insurance. If it doesn't work out, I'm going on TCyp. The Dr originally gave me a choice but recommended trying Xyosted first and seeing if it's covered ... I figured why not. You've already been diagnosed and Rx'd T, why not transfer...

    Noob - EOD Dosage

    I'm curious, is this through a Urologist, Endocrinologist or TRT Clinic? Seems like a hot start.

    IM Testosterone Given SubQ

    Have you been paying out of pocket these past 3-months or were the first 3 mos on free samples?

    Need to find a new Urologist in Maryland

    Just found this forum today and posted my introduction based on my recent symptoms and a physical I pursued by my PCP after just turning 50 in June. So, my blood panels were not comprehensive enough obviously and I'm kicking around the idea of seeing an Endo or Urologist. Coincidentally, aside...

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.
