I would only add the dhea and observe if there is an improvement in symptoms. Imho this is reasonable because your dhea-s tested deficient twice.

If “essential” means absolutely required in the same way as some amino acids or certain vitamins, then fiber isn’t considered "essential" in that strict biochemical sense because the body doesn’t require it to perform basic metabolic functions or synthesize essential compounds.

Had anyone tried MOTS-C or SLU-PP 332?

I think that one can avoid mood swings and other initial side effects if one slowly increases the blood serum T and avoids overshooting. The baseline natural T level then matters because natural production decreases after TRT initialization. E.g. starting at 150 or 450 and aiming at 800 would...

You could donate blood to calm your mind. I would also take an iron supplement as well as the psych meds if they help with the symptoms, and also talk to the psychiatrist. Edit: I'm not sure about the iron supplement after reading @Guided_by_Voices post. Edit2: Reading up on TIBC, saturation. I...

Imho you should compare the current lab report with previous ones in order to identify significant changes. Compare the hematocrit and estrogen values. PCP's reaction is typical... Question is what would be next on the list of possible causes. Your ferritin is further off range than the hct. I...

Exactly that has been the problem here. It sounds like it's damn sure that something is broken "this suppression disrupts the entire steroidogenesis pathway[1][3][4]."

This theory was popular at excelmale Regarding dhea, pregnenolone (the majority doesn't need to supplement it): Post in thread 'Supraphysiologic testosterone (350 mg weekly)' Supraphysiologic testosterone (350 mg weekly) - Page 3 - Excel Male TRT Forum I believe most issues occur only if men...

@Cataceous I meant if we had example cases it would be easier to comprehend. We both had a bit discussion about the topic and I think you are right. The details are hard to evaluate. E.g. some TRT clinics prescribe a dht derivative in order to increase free T by lowering shbg. They claim that is...

@Nelson Vergel and @Cataceous Can you find evidence for both theories/explanations (shbg on TRT etc)?

Rule out overtraining: 1-2 weeks no weight training.

Could keep the remainder in another syringe.

Do you mean the 1ml ampoules?

That's correct.

I took daily 20,000IU and this got my levels only to 40. Maybe underdosed pills? Switched to liquid D3 dissolved in MCT oil. Here the threshold for deficiency is 20.

Hello @madman, are you still using that combo? How about creatine post workout? Do we have a thread on how to improve recovery besides the general 'eat and sleep' advice? What impact has cardio and stretching?

Forget about the cortex dude ;)

I recall he said to measure first and check if they are deficient and look for possible symptoms. He emphasized that there is an inverse U shaped dose-response. T and dhea are more likely out of balance while on trt. In the average man there is probably no need for dhea nor trt. The problem is...

You could try dhea for mood and energy

Supraphysiologic testosterone (350 mg weekly) - Excel Male TRT Forum

TRT can improve mental health. What you are planning might backfire. Be aware that after your 12 week cycle you will likely feel much worse before your own T production is fully back to normal AND your brain re-adapted to your normal levels. You might bring your depression to a complete new level.

The BP difference is strange. I'm no longer sure what's the best BP is. That's why I asked how you feel. Are you sure the resting BP is consistently higher? If you add dhea, does it make a difference?

Based on this information I would go with the better 'feeling' setting for TRT. Maybe you can optimize it with dhea, and regarding gym maybe more creatine, coffeïne pre-workout or oral AAS pre-workout for cns stimulation.

Please don't say the only difference between the two labs is a different dose of TC? How do you feel on both settings?

Wonder what the impact of LGD is on hematocrit. All AAS seem to increase hematocrit. I'm now at 63mg T per week (100mg TU).

No, good effect for me using the recommended (video above) starting dose of 4mg. Can also take twice 4mg per day.

Injectable LGD. Interesting and unexplained difference between oral and injectable LGD. https://moreplatesmoredates.com/injectable-sarms-review-lgd-4033-magnalone/ Oral LGD https://moreplatesmoredates.com/lgd-4033-overview/#is_lgd-4033_as_strong_as_steroids I started oral/sublingual...
