    KYZATREX (oral testosterone undecanoate) Updates

    Two things. It sounds like you are generally in a good place so I wouldn't do anything that could make things worse. Several things to consider.. - Working out harder can often lead to overtraining which will make you go backward - Something that has worked very well for me is adding low rep...

    Starting TRT Soon

    There's also the factor that both in my experience and due to the nature of how T releases from the ester, it is somewhat easier to judge symptoms when you are increasing the dose than when decreasing since an increase in dose will always increase levels in the body, while a decrease may still...

    Fainting, High HCT, Low Ferritin — TRT Vet of 15+ Years Needs Help ASAP

    Yes. Little to no downside, and significant upside even if it is just to rule something out. Also, even though omeprazole doesn't appear to be anti-cholinergic (which would be a big clue if it was) figuring out the underlying problem and stopping it at least for a while seems prudent. The docs...

    Fainting, High HCT, Low Ferritin — TRT Vet of 15+ Years Needs Help ASAP

    I would not jump to the conclusion that your issues are hormonal. For example, your symptoms are very similar to someone I know who had Lyme disease. It could also be something in your environment like mold, but those are just two examples of what could be caused by many things. Do you have...

    Starting TRT Soon

    I could never get consistent sleep when I was really low carb. Your sleep episodes sound like low blood sugar episodes. You can try a large spoonful of glycine before you sleep, or possibly a spoonful of quality honey (e.g. buckwheat). I do use melatonin but that will wear of after a few hours...

    Zinc

    I believe they interfere with each other (one blocks the absorption of the other) so it is best to take them separately. That said, I only supplement zinc when I am fighting a cold (which is hardly ever) because zinc can block aromatase and I have very low estrogen. I also eat beef at least...

    Estradiol valerate experiment .

    You can also buy transdermal creams at karenmartel.com and likely elsewhere. I don't believe Dbol converts into the same type of estrogen so the answer to your question is probably not ,but worth a try if nothing else works.

    Glucosamine - my devastating side effects.

    In general, low level allergies can cause your symptoms . I had similar issues with whey protein. I think chondroitin is sourced from shellfish so if glucosamine is the same way, then perhaps that is what is going on. Or there could be something in the binders and fillers. There is always...

    Warning for Men on TRT: Low Ferritin is Bad

    I've been on HCG for 6-8 years or so. No issues I am aware of although there is at least clinic operator who thought that the body can develop an allergy to it with lng-term use, and that breaks are a good thing. I have been using clomid when I travel to take a break, but overall I'm not aware...

    10 Years on TRT and Only Recent Libido Issues

    Probably Multi-Vitamin, which makes this a good time to point out a few of the problems with MVs. - Wrong/incomplete forms: for example, Vitamin E is is usually just alpha tocopherol in MVs - Low dosage, for example magnesium, potassium, vitamin C and D - Conflicting nutrients, for example Zinc...

    10 Years on TRT and Only Recent Libido Issues

    Most people are low in all of these, unless you work as a lifeguard, and maybe not even then. You want 50 or higher for Vitamin D. I'm not sure the units on the others but if you're not supplementing you're likely low, and there's no real risk of overdose. You also need to take Vitamin K2 with...

    10 Years on TRT and Only Recent Libido Issues

    I would star with no more that 100-300 micrograms. The commonly used doses are way too high IME. There are other threads here about it and Peptide Sciences carries it.

    My LIPID PANEL Should I be concerned?

    IMO, no., you should not be concerned except to try to get trigs down a little bit. But you should always look for ways to increase your heart health. As far as cholesterol goes, other things are far more important, such as avoiding blood sugar spikes and keeping fasting insulin down. I strongly...

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.
