    Cost of compounded testosterone cream

    I have been thinking about switching to compounded testosterone cream. However, unlike injectable testosterone cypionate and topical/gels generic and brand name, compounded testosterone is probably not covered in my prescription coverage.

    Testostone levels declining with injections

    I have been on injections since 2019. I inject 100mg of testosterone once a week. I have seen a steady decline my testosterone level over that last year. My most recent blood test was taken two days after my injection and my total testosterone was only 249 ng/dl. My total testosterone was in...

    Using Clomid to alleviate withdrawal symptoms

I have not had that script filled for a couple of months because it is more of...

    End of patent protection for Viagra and Cialis in the United States

    With patent protection for Viagra and Cialis coming to a close a United States (U.S.) and Lilly's push to take Cialis over the counter, I am curious as to how the post-patent pricing model will look. Granted, both companies have fought like the ****ens to extend patent protection with some...

    Alcohol used in the production of testosterone esters?

    I am assuming that testosterone esters are testosterone bound to an ester. From organic chemistry, we know that an ester is an alcohol bound to a carboxylic acid, which is an organic acid that contains a carboxyl group (i.e., an acid with a chemical formula that ends in COOH). In the case of...

    Cialis, hit or miss

    Has anyone else experienced problems with Cialis being hit or miss? I love Cialis when it works, but there are days where it feels like I ingested a sugar pill. I always take Cialis (20mg) on an empty stomach.
