Look into the workouts of professional baseball players. They lift only twice a week (upper body one day, lower body second). They are not massive but certainly in good decent shape imo..
I agree. The male physic has definitely changed in the past 50 years or so for the worst. Men back then were fit and didn't have the hormonal problems as of today. I'm sure some did but it was not tested or treated...
Today's pollution, foods, plastics and whatever else, have done their toll...
My prolactin is 17 and was advised against caber. Now that your almost two weeks in, do you feel any changes in sex drive or other areas yet (beyond placebo?)...
Been on TRT for 4 months now. After a month in, I was sick more than ever normal. Stomach bug then strep throat and finally bronchial issues. It could be time of year but sure was a coincidence...
Common sense says yes but I'd like to ask CW or other experienced daily guys a question. If you switch to daily pins, would it be safe to say you could actually take a smaller amount with the same results? I'm sure SHBG plays into this as well as other factors yet it seems a sound conclusion.
Had my first 3 month follow up with my endo who initially started me on the testosterone road. After finding this forum, nothing that she recommended as far as injection protocol I followed. Currently @ 42mgs E3D cyp IM and am content and more importantly, feeling decent. Here are the tests she...
Great topic...
Been considering this for some time now and will move to this change of daily injections in six weeks as I just changed my protocol after Endo appt and waiting for 6 weeks to see new results. I believe this may be the best way to obtain the most steady state levels around with...
Agree with everyone. If your relatively lean, you can go to your local drugstore, ask for 27-29 gauge 12.7mm insulin needles and inject with ease into your quads and or delts. Don't worry about the subq shots for now and stick with IM. You can opt for those later if you choose after you do your...
CHEERS!!!! Great job to all involved in starting, maintaining and doing what you do here. Very glad to a be a member to this fine community of fellow peers!!

You completely expressed my feelings in regards to knowing now vs. back then. I'd have never started that madness. Imo, methadone needs a serious overhaul and intense scrutiny. It may be helping some but in the long run, not really. Then again, being in recovery, I always try to put things...
Good topic!!
dont have any knowledge to add but the only changes I notice in pre-cum is if I don't ejaculate for a couple days and then become super horny/aroused directly with a woman, (vs. porn or some hot chick photo) it's flowing like Niagra. The more aroused I become and for prolonged...

Been off methadone since 4/2014 after 12 long, agonizing years of that nonsense. Do your thing man. If that's what it takes to stay off smack, so be it. Did Suboxone for one year after the methadone and it saved my life! Have you looked into it? I've read lots of encouraging reports on...

I began TRT because of opiates and the effect they play in hormones. I abused my prescriptions which led to years of chasing the dragon. Turned to methadone for help which caused more problems and finally was able to stop with the help of suboxone. I think the feelings you describe...
It looks like your switching your protocol quickly and not allowing the minimum 6 weeks on a religious dosing schedule then do blood work. You did do a decent job of raising your T levels naturally btw but TRT may be your best bet. If you choose TRT, stick to an injection protocol, then get...
Depending on your AI. Arimidex which I see is the most common ancillary with TRT, will lower your current E2 level. Be vary cautious with your dosage. Arimidex is very effective and imo, less is more. 40 pg/ml is slightly elavated but what is more important is the testosterone to E2 ratio from...
I've been on TRT since November 2016. Starting in mid January and continuing until now, I've been ill with one thing or another. I can't completely correlate my various illnesses with TRT or time of year but it sure is a coincidence. I currently am taking 43 mgs of cypionate every 3 days IM...
Are you on any other prescriptions or take ANY recreational drugs? Do you drink plenty of water (6-8 glasses daily)? Muscle cramps or tightness is a decent sign of dehydration.
Should be about 4-6 weeks for your E2 to return to it's prior levels. You were not crashed for too long so besides having the issues you now have, nothing else should be compromised. In TRT, patience and obtaining the ability to listen to your body comes with time. You'll be your own best...
1 mg of arimidex eod depleted your estradiol to nothing. Why even give it without symptoms of high e2 to begin? Especially in the beginning of TRT. How much of that 200mg blend do you take? Probably should stop your adex until proper blood tests confirm high e2 then dose accordingly. I wanted to...
Use the .5ml insulin pin as well into the delts. I also push onto the syringe a little against the muscle to get a little deeper. Those syringes are perfect for small, frequent injections with little to no waste!
I tend to run on the higher end of prolactin as well. My numbers don't jump like yours but are as high. I also feel a weaker libido from this and the occasional ED (rare).
So if sex is placed at your doorstep, you can preform, achieve an erection? Your issue is more of you not looking or...
It will take a good 6 weeks to even out your levels. Patches and gels are for so called optimum daily levels but far from the tried and true injections. Easy to do, able to make subtle dose changes with the right syringes and very quick. Your gripes with the lack of information on TRT is all to...
