Nope -- had my checkup in December, and my numbers all were good. Zero changes in diet or meds in the last six months. I did notice that the last time they did it, they did not check hematocrit, but instead did HGB (16) which was out of range.

Twice a week, sub-q (so 120 split). I have been doing that for years and this is the first time my hematocrit was below the threshold. I am usually around 56-57 every three months when I go in for the draw.

I have, for years, done my regular "every three months" blood draw. It's usually only allowed by my doc if my number is above 55. Today was a first -- I went in and it was 46. So they sent me away. (I do therapeutic because I'm on thinners) I was surprised to have that happen for the first...

Joints hurt. Moody. My lifts have sucked in the last month, and zero morning wood.

Yeah, I inject 2x a week, sub-q, and that test was taken before my second shot of the week.

I've been on TRT for years, through the same clinic. I hadn't been taking my AI during that time, but the doc really, really felt that my numbers should be lower than 20, so he advised me to give it a try. Just did the blood work and yikes. T: 950 E: < 5 SHBG: 30 All of my other numbers are...

Great -- which if their brands are decent? I notice none of them are on the (older) list of A+ brands. Corion and Ovidac seem to be out of stock, but they have other brands...I just don't know the quality of these.

Do you need a scrip to get this stuff from Reliable?

Wow, nobody has a source?

I just did a search and there are a lot of old postings -- is there any reliable HCG source anymore that isn't being killed by tariffs? I used to get it from India, but is there any actual US based source?

This was 3 years ago, but back then I did 7 units inter muscular, but now I do 3 units sub-q twice a week.

interesting. Last visit with my doctor, he felt my E2 was too high and asked me to restart the AI (I had stopped) so I take a half tablet twice a week now, the day after my shots. Since I also stopped the HCG, how do I know if I am *too low* on E2? What should I be looking for body wise? I was...

I took a trip back east and couldn't really drag my HCG along, so I skipped it for this week...I'm about 7 days into not taking it and I'm suddenly getting more morning wood. I find that odd, and maybe unrelated, but am curious about what effect HCG could have there in the negative sense?

Went today for my “every three months” blood “donation.” I was at 47. That doesn’t seem so high. When should I be worried? I do 2x a week subq.

I'm currently on 500iu 2x a week. My libido is still "meh" and my ball size isn't quite where it was. Not sure if the HCG I'm getting from reliablerx is crap, or I'm letting it sit in the fridge too long, but starting to wonder if I should be doing 500iu 3x a week, or is that going to screw me...

Okay, the numbers I had quoted above were from my last test about 6 months ago, before we turned down the T a bit. I went and got a new test and my numbers, received yesterday, show that I am at 854 at my low. So that's better than it was, which was a bit above 1000. My E was 26, SHBG is 30...

If I'm still high like that after my next test (in the next few weeks), I'm going to ask to dial down again. Would that affect my libido too? That's the part that I find most distressing.

I've spent two years on TRT. My numbers are dialed in at around 1000 T and about 38 E. I pin twice a week, sub-q, adding in HCG as well. No AI. I work out 4x a week, and take lots of walks. I sleep well. I still have very little sex drive anymore, and my ability to get an erection, which I...

Thank you -- I just don't see the point of adding another cocktail to the mix if I'm not getting a lot out of it. My morning wood has gradually gone away, my libido didn't return, and I think we need to dial down my T number based on other comments. I think I need to remove HCG from the...

I've been using HCG for two reasons: ball size and libido. I have been having low libido so it's not helping there. I'm curious what happens if I stop the HCG, other than my balls shrinking to the size of almonds? I didn't find it had an effect on anything else other than that. I will just...

Sorry, 1mg would be 200, so I was on 140 a week, down to 120 now. He's never brought it up. Maybe time for another clinic, but really no clear "who should I move to." Always up for recommendations of people who manage this better.

Thank you for the write up. I need to figure out how to bring up with my clinic that we need to find a more optimal number for me, and I am not sure what I should be shooting for. We haven't tested since dropping me from .7 to .6 weekly. I know doctors love it when you debate them, but I will...

So I had been commenting earlier about having a difficult time orgasming. Someone had mentioned maybe my dose is too high. I had a thought, and wanted some feedback. So this morning, which is my low as I inject Monday AM and Thursday PM, I had more morning wood than I would normally. So that...

Yes -- I inject twice a week and these numbers were right before my second shot.

SHBG last test (before lowering my dose) was 37.3 with T at 1219.

Thank you for sending those -- I will read through them. When I started this journey a few years ago, my T level was 500, E was 25, and my SHBG was 45. There are times where I wonder if I really needed to start TRT or not, but I'm in it now. Maybe a target of 800 would be more what I should be...

My penis journey...I had an illness which took out my heart valve. So I got an artificial one, which is why I have the warfarin. The illness also hit my nerves, particularly the one that affects the penis. I lost about 60% of the sensitivity of my penis in that event. But I was still...

I take a 5mg Cialis daily, warfarin, and supplements like ZMA and fish oil. That's it. (and the aforementioned trimix, which I wish I didn't have to use, but am grateful exists).

Revisiting this as I am struggling more with the sensitivity, something that Trimix doesn't help with... So at my last test, back in October, I was on 7 units of T per week (split into 3.5 shots, mon/thur, sub-q). I also do HCG (500 UI) 2x a week. T: 1219 E: 36 (pg/mL) Doc felt the T was too...

I am on HCG (500 IU, 2x a week) and have seen no increase in anything but ball size. No libido change, just as difficult to achieve orgasm. I don't know if ti means I need more HCG or not...but oy, it's so hard to dial this stuff in.

Testosterone/DHEA 200/10 mg/mL intramuscular liquid Does that help -- this is what I have on my bottle.
