    WAS: 5 months post stopping TRT cold turkey bloodwork , NOW: Wife No Longer Wants Sex

    No, i can't understand why some men get married more than once. If a relationship's strong, why should it need a legal contract? I think if you're planning a family, it's a good idea. But if you've done all that, and then the relationship's ended, don't get burnt twice! As to your sex dilemma...

    WAS: 5 months post stopping TRT cold turkey bloodwork , NOW: Wife No Longer Wants Sex

    Sorry for also 'highjacking' OP's thread, but the sexually non-responsive partner subject is just too important not to comment on. As far as i'm concerned, when you marry, you take a vow to be in a monogamous relationship with your wife (or husband). What you DON'T sign up for though, is to be...

    What is the Salt Trick for Men ? : Salt, Healthy Blood Pressure Levels, and Libido.

    I don't think it's added to water in all areas of the UK, but where i am (West Midlands) it definitely is. I didn't realise that the tap water in the USA had fluoride added to it too, but according to wikipedia it does: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_fluoridation_by_country

    What is the Salt Trick for Men ? : Salt, Healthy Blood Pressure Levels, and Libido.

    Thankfully we all have a choice when it comes to salt (unless you live on packaged meals or take aways). I'm more bothered by the fluoride added to our water system here in the UK. The Britta filter i use won't remove that, and reverse osmosis filter systems are very expensive.

    What is the Salt Trick for Men ? : Salt, Healthy Blood Pressure Levels, and Libido.

    All i know is that if i have a very intensive workout and i've sweated a lot, if i don't take extra salt with my water, i'll be getting cramps later on. There's nothing like waking up at 3am with cramp in a calf, throwing yourself out of bed, then getting another cramp in the thigh. This was a...

    Dhea and pregnelone

    Not that i can find, no. I noticed iherb uk does dhea cream though. Again, not cheap, at least this one tells you how much is in it though (15mg dhea per 1/4 teaspoon) https://uk.iherb.com/pr/emerita-dhea-balancing-cream-with-vitamin-e-fragrance-free-4-oz-112-g/85877

    Topical Androsterone

    Just wondering if anyone on the forum has experience with topical androsterone? I'm looking at buying a product (Alpha Gains 1-Andro TD) that contains 100mg of androsterone per ml. I'm looking to try it for its purported mental benefits. Wikipedia claims androsterone acts as a PAM of the GABAA...

    Question regarding allergic reaction after injecting Sermorelin

    Update - since stopping the ipamorelin / mod grf injections, the swelling and itching in my toes has gone. Obviously not a suitable treatment for me.

    Question regarding allergic reaction after injecting Sermorelin

    Rather than start a new thread, i thought i'd put this here. I bought some ipamorelin and modified grf (1-29) just before Christmas, and have been injecting 100mcg of each once a day, monday to friday. Over the last couple of weeks though, i've been getting red, swollen toes. This seems to start...

    Test ok but free T is low

    I'm currently taking 12.5mg a day. The ones i have are 25mg tablets, and i just bite half off in the morning when i get up. I hold it under my tongue for a while and let it disolve before swallowing. I don't know where doing this puts my dhea-s levels as it's not included on the Medichecks...

    Test ok but free T is low

    @nippy Just looking at one of your older posts, you mentioned you've always had low e2 - "My last E2 result was march 23 and it was 57 pmol. Thats with me pinning so shows my E2 is always low . Don't know how I can boost my E2... If my blood comes back and my free t is low I'm going back on...

    Test ok but free T is low

    Lol, maybe. Have you ever tried tongkat ali? Just my personal experience here, but i find it significantly increases my libido (unfortunately for me though, it also seems to cause the rheumatism in my thumb joints to flare up so i've had to stop taking it) It's also supposed to lower shbg if...

    Test ok but free T is low

    I was showing that what you hoped you'd get by adjusting shbg in a free t calculator would give you the increase in free t number you were after. And that although in reality it's more complicated than that, it's one reason why people claim lowering shbg gives increased free t. That was all...

    Is there a Way to Increase Libido or Testosterone without Losing Hair?

    Nizoral (ketoconazole) shampoo might be worth looking into too. I've used it for years, originally due to scalp psoriasis i had as a kid, but later after reading how people were using it to try and prevent hair loss. All i can say is, i have two brothers - both have lost most of their hair...

    2month bloods very high

    Fwiw, i currently do 84mg/week, spread across two injections per week (42mg Sun AM, 42mg Wed PM). I don't use a clinic by the way. My last blood test, taken at a trough, so just before an injection came back at: Total T - 25.4nmol/l (732ng/dl) Free T - 0.517nmol/l (14.9ng/dl). So it was a...

    When testosterone isn't enough - major fatigue and brain fog.

    Just my opinion as i have years of experience with both - kratom and modafinil. Obviously, see what your blood work shows first, but kratom (in my opinion) is a great mood booster, and modafinil (in my opinion) will wake you up without feeling jittery like too much caffeine can.

    Hip Replacement Surgery on TRT- Experiences

    Not long back home from hip op #2, right hip (and already started back on the DHEA). I'd forgotten how stressful it felt being out of theatre and on the ward. I was there two nights, and you get no chance to sleep as you're woken every two hours to take blood pressure, oxygen saturation and...

    Hip Replacement Surgery on TRT- Experiences

    Had a letter arrive in the post late yesterday - got the date for my other hip to be done. That means it'll be 10 weeks between surgeries, and not the 6 months i was originally told by the surgeon that i'd need to recover. I'm not sure if this is because he thinks i've recovered quickly like...
