    Experiences and Questions: Personal Experiments with Oral Native Testosterone Base & Enclomiphene (TRT+), Testosterone Propionate, HCG and more

    Thanks for posting this. One of the big problems with what I'll call the Minimally Suppressive Testosterone/SERM approaches is the lack of publicly available discussion on the results of such experimentation, so it's interesting to see your results. I had never heard of L-Tyrosine creating those...

    Severe Muscle Pain from Crestor?

    I have found that the 250mg version doesn't have even 1 quarter of the flush off the 500 version, so I have switched to taking more of the 250's.

    Damage to my penis... please help

    It can make some people smell like Garlic for a little while although I've never had this issue. It does not affect libido. You have to make sure the skiin is clean in the area you apply it. AMidwesternDoctor on substack has done a massive series on it and I suggest you read that. It can...

    Damage to my penis... please help

    You might also try DMSO which seems to benefit just about everything.

    Damage to my penis... please help

    This is just a wild guess on my part, but a vacuum penis pump might be worth a try. The concept would be that it draws blood into the penis and the increased blood flow might be therapeutic. There was also a study posted here a while back that said Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy increased vascular...

    Help with blood test results and erectile dysfunction

    Several things: - Time Restricted Eating is essential no matter what. Specifically, start by eating within an 8 hour time window so that your are only drinking water for 16 hours per day. Part of insulin resistance appears to be that cells are over-stimulated by constant exposure to insulin, so...

    Male...gaining slight fat with cellulite in thighs all of a sudden even with normal lab results

    You are making a claim that does not seem to be supported by evidence or logic, so you you need to cite some or expect your position to be challenged. For example, aromatizing compounds are well-known to lead to gyno in some people and be countered by an AI. Gyno is at least partially fat...

    Starting TRT Soon

    I can't remember if I mentioned this before but have you tried timed-release melatonin for sleep? It sounds like some sort of dopamine or cortisol issue but melatonin might help. A spoonful of quality honey before be d might also help if it a low blood sugar issue. Also, I've run across several...

    Male...gaining slight fat with cellulite in thighs all of a sudden even with normal lab results

    Stress can certainly impact cortisol, so it sounds like that is a prime candidate for your issues. When dealing with any difficult issue however, you want have everything working in your favor, and you want most stored fat in your body to be saturated fat, not PUFAs. Resolution of cellulite is...

    DHT Cream Plus Testosterone Propionate = Major Libido Boost

    I've never used this product but I do use 100% DMSO all the time and it can certainly be a little harsh on the skin in some places. Mixing whatever your normal dose of alphagels with the 70%DMSO/30% aloe-vera blend might reduce the skin issues.

    Elevated Hematocrit from Testosterone Therapy vs High-Altitude Adaptation: A Comparative Analysis

    Thanks for posting this. This implies that blood pressure should rise if blood viscosity is in fact rising in a problematic way, however I've had a mysterious rise in HCT with no rise in BP that I can tell. I'm wondering (hoping) that perhaps BP can be used as a way to tell if a rise in HCT is a...

    Male...gaining slight fat with cellulite in thighs all of a sudden even with normal lab results

    Have you eliminated all seed oils from your diet? Do you have any reason to think your cortisol may have increased? High cortisol can cause abnormal fat deposits (see Cushings Syndrome/Disease).

    DHT Cream Plus Testosterone Propionate = Major Libido Boost

    Personally, if they're the only source, I wouldn't let this scare me away. There's nothing wrong with DMSO and if the DHT works then it works. MT-2 was known to be under-dosed from the non-US/CA sources but it is so strong and you have to dose by experimentation anyway so it doesn't really matter.

    Testosterone Therapy Induced High Hematocrit- Can Therapeutic Phlebotomy Be a Double-Edged Sword?

    "Testosterone stimulates the production of red blood cells (erythropoiesis) by initially increasing erythropoietin (EPO), establishing a new EPO/hemoglobin "set point," This seems underappreciated and could explain why some of us have our HCT jump up and stay up for no apparent reason. On the...
