    Injection frequency question

    I guess I’d look for more stable levels, but I guess I don’t really have any reasons. Not sure I’d notice any real changes.

    Injection frequency question

    Hematocrit runs from 50-51. If that what HCT is. It was at 47-48 for years. Not really sure what the increase was about, but it’s stabilized at 50/51 now. I’m assuming that is okay.

    Injection frequency question

    I’ve been on TRT for 12 years. I’ve always done 200/mg per ML once a week. I’m thinking about trying dosing 3x a week using subq. What should the dose be. I know it’s 66.6. Do you just round down to 65? Sorry if it’s a goofy question.

    Blood work Hematocrit levels

    Are there any issues with hematocrit running around 50-51? This has happened on the past two labs. They used to be 47-48 on the same dose a few years ago, not really sure where the increase came from.

    Lipid profile changes (high)

    A little concerned about this, triglycerides especially stand out from the previous results.

    Defy insurance claims

    I know Defy Medical does not file insurance claims. Blue Cross Blue shield allows you to file claims. This would save me around 40% off visits. The doctor I see can run all the necessary bloodwork. Has anyone had any luck with insurance claims.

    defy medical and insurance claims

    I know defy does not deal with insurance. BCBS allows you to file a claim yourself. Has anyone had any luck with this?

    What about one the hemoglobin side being on the higher end?

    Hematocrit vs hemoglobin

    Hematocrit 46.2 on a range of 37.1 to 51 Hemoglobin 16.1 on range of 12.6 to 17.7 Would these levels be anything to be alarmed about?

    Hematocrit vs hemoglobin

    Interesting, is hemoglobin being high as bad as hematocrit.

    Hematocrit vs hemoglobin

    Just wanting to see if my blood work is within range on both hematocrit and hemoglobin. My hematocrit is sitting in the midrange but my hemoglobin is in the upper range. What would be the difference?

    Total T blood levels

    My current dose is 200mg week in two split doses. I inject on Thursday morning and Sunday night. I worked a double Thursday and missed that injection day. My doctor drew blood work for levels on Friday. I forgot to tell her I missed my Thursday shot. I called back later to tell the nurse l, she...

    So LH would be zero even if someone was running hcg and TRT?

    How long does it typically take for LH levels to bottom out while on TRT and discontinuing HCG.

    1ml vials

    First time I got 1ml vials, they were out of the 1ml vial. I can't ever get two .5ml doses out of them.

    I hit a vein while injecting testosterone

    Did an injection on my thigh 1" 25g. I'm guessing I did it to far on the side. Felt a slight pain when putting the needle in, aspirated and had blood. Pulled back out, changed to a 26g 1.5 and used my glute. Two questions: anything to worry about as far as hitting or going through the vain 2...

    frequency and subq

    Just need to get my doc on the hcg train, since she believes it's illegal to prescribe. Yet, I picked up and prescription from the compounding pharmacy and behold, they were filling an hcg prescription.

    frequency and subq

    I'll agree with that, but I have been on trt prior to the Clomid for awhile.

    frequency and subq

    It's possible. Was thinking about going with a 29g 8mm for subq.

    frequency and subq

    I'm not due for labs for awhile. Coming off Clomid, it'd been about three weeks.

    frequency and subq

    Currently on 200mg/week with a 26g 1.5 glute and .25mg armidex 2x week. I feel fine throughout the week. Any reason I need to go with shots 2x week? Also thinking about subq, just haven't made up my mind on it.

    hcg

    No specific reason, honestly. Just difficult to manage stuff between my doctor and Defy. Nothing wrong on Defy's part, at all. Just a pain to get physicals twice a year and mess with relaying stuff with my doctor. Also already on 200mg a week Test, puts me in the 1100 range. HCG, , I am...

    hcg

    Currently on TRT. I am OK with the testicle size decreasing. Is it possible to run a round of hcg two times a year and not be on it on a constant basis. My current doctor believes that it's illegal to prescribe hcg.
