During my most recent consult with Dr. Calkins, he recommended starting BPC-157 (250mcg ED SQ) and CJC-1295/Ipamorelin (350mcg ED SQ). The former because I just had surgery to reattach my left distal bicep tendon (8/11/2020), and the latter because my IGF-1 has been trending down over the last...

Started 15mg Clomid ED on July 3 under the care of Defy. I had my blood tests last week for my 6 week follow-up, so the results reflect a little over 4 weeks of use. Blood tests confirm physical results I've observed since about week 2: - larger testes (and fuller scrotum) - way more erections...

Hi All, I'm working through some prostate issues, hopefully just prostatitis. If/when, that is resolved, I'd like to explore the possibility of a restart. Anyway, I have some recent blood work to analyze. https://imgur.com/a/OcUu1 https://imgur.com/a/wWlkK I finally got the right E2 test...
