Everything so far has been going great since getting my dose dialed in for TRT. Turned out everything looks really good at 70mg every 4 days subcutaneous. No need for an AI and no HCT issues. Only thing that bothers me is my HDL has dropped to 38. My total cholesterol looked really good at...

Just wanted to share what I experienced through my first year of TRT as I thought some may find it interesting or helpful. I started with an initial total test that hovered between 250 and 350 from my early 20s to 40 when I decided to start. I started with 200mg a week from my doctor...

Just curious if any of you have gotten elevated ALT levels from TRT. I've been told high protein diets and hard weight training can cause it as well. I'm trying to figure out a cause. Mine came back as normal AST but ALT was 65 and normal is 45 I believe in the test I took. Everything...

Wanted to drop by and give some feedback on my treatment so far. Everything is still going well. Strength in the gym is huge. Sex drive went up and has stayed at a healthy level. Mood is improved. Not a huge improvement in motivation but it is better. Coordination is better and so is...

I've had a bit of a weird situation. My testes had definitely shrunk noticeably and drawn up after being on TRT. However, about a week ago they seem to have made a recovery to their previous state. They are no longer drawn up and the size and firmness seems back to normal. I haven't...

Hey Everyone, Things have been going pretty smoothly for me the last 3 weeks or so. Heart rate is back down and BP is a nice 115/75. I just got my lab results back and I think things look good! I do 100mg of cyp twice a week. TT 840 FT 21.9 Estrogen sensitive 21 SHBG 34.5 Hemoglobin 16.4...

I just wanted to see if any of you had opinions on your experience with TRT including HCG vs just the Test. I've noticed the testicle shrinkage starting and it is somewhat troublesome. I'm not sure why except maybe psychologically. My doctor is totally against the use of HCG so I would...

Hey Guys, Just finished up six weeks and so far a lot of my issues have improved. HR is still a bit over what it was but hangs out around 75 which is fine to me. BP is back to normal. Pinning no longer causes lingering soreness. All of that is good. On the negative side I'm not feeling...

Hey guys, Just finished my fifth week and I'm having the symptoms listed in the title. Some nights I am waking up a little sweaty. Not drenched but sweaty mainly on my chest and neck. Also, morning wood seems to have disappeared. Also my nipples seem to stay a bit hard and sore/sensitive...

Was doing some reading and came across some guys saying that you should have at a minimum 4 locations that you rotate for injections. However, I think these guys were doing full blown steroid cycles and not TRT. It did make me curious though how many spots you guys go through in a rotation...

First of all I have read the sticky here on injection sites and watched Mr Vergel's video on shoulder injection as well as Dr. Crisler's video on subq stomach injections. Everything goes smoothly in every site I have used so far during the injection. I'm using easy touch 28g .5" insulin...

I know this has been discussed somewhat but I wanted to get some suggestions on what if anything I should do in this situation. I just finished my first month of TRT. I have my first post TRT blood work coming up on 10/14 so I don't know my values yet to give you here. What I have seen is...

I can't say this is 100% related but I don't seem to be the only one that has experienced this effect. Before TRT I had really unpleasant palpitations for years. I went to multiple doctors and a cardiologist and they all tested and said they were benign and try to ignore it. Well that's...

Quick question for you all about whether this is normal. After my first shot I felt like someone had jump started my life. Lots of energy and libido through the roof. However, I also had increased BP and HR. Nothing major but noticeable. I just finished my third week and BP and HR are...

Just curious if any of you have good luck with the 28g .5" or smaller needle in outer thigh. I like stomach subq and Nelson's shoulder method but I figure the more rotation the better. Also, is it ever necessary to aspirate with these smaller needles? I'm doing .5ml per injection. Thanks!

Well I Just did my first injection as a subq in the stomach. I used a 28g needle. I gotta say the first time really got my nerves fired up. I think it went well. I split my weekly dose in half so I will do another 3 or 4 days later. The injection spot is a bit tender and I can feel the...

Hey guys. I've had my second shot of T cyp a few days ago. After the first shot I started feeling a lot bette and had a huge increase in spontaneous erections etc. After this shot I haven't noticed as much and there is some slight sensitivity in my nipples. Is it possible that E2 could...

My 27g .5" needles arrived today. My question is whether you need to aspirate when injecting with these needles in the deltoid. On the video that Nelson posted it didn't appear that he did but I wanted to make sure.

Just curious if any of you guys had mixed feelings about getting started on TRT. I'm the type to over analyze everything and I kept asking myself should I just deal with the symptoms or try TRT and see if it helps. I've been in the 200-300s since early 20s. All other blood work has been...

Hello! I got my first shot of 200mg yesterday given by a nurse. The shot was in the glute and was essentially painless. Today however it is pretty sore. Once I am self-injecting I plan to split the dose and go the subq route. I'm curious if the soreness is always pretty bad for the next...

Hello All! I was just started on Test Cyp by my physician at 200mg a week. I just got my first prescription filled at a local pharmacy and noticed it was from SUN Pharmacy. Being OCD I researched this and found it was in India and didn't have the best track record. I asked and the...
