I had a MRV Abdomen w/ + w/o Contrast looking for a possible venous obstruction, which was not identified. However, the report did mention the following "Prostate/Seminal Vesicles: Atrophic appearing prostate gland" I've been on TRT for close on a decade and would think my prostrate, if...

That’s right, which was why its strange that you would see a stable level of FREE T if TOTAL T dropped significantly. Generally the level of FREE T and E2 would move in the same direction as your TOTAL T if the dose was increased or reduced. TOTAL T would either be bound to albumin, SHBG or...

I should have added that the time span between my bloodwork was 12 weeks. I’ve been on TRT for close to a decade and have never seen Total T drop without a decrease in related markers.

Has anyone ever noticed a significant decline in Total T, but Free T, SHBG and E2 remain the same between blood draws and if so, what was the cause? I know Free T is the metric to be more concerned about, but I am curious as to potential reason for this. Total T dropped from 743 to 401 Free T...

Unless I'm missing something, I would think that your "self-medicated" protocol from 2018 was more appropriate for cardio protection than your current protocol given your free T and estradiol levels in your current bloodwork - both of which are cardioprotective within physiological ranges...

Has anyone done a blood test comparison between using grapeseed and cottonseed oil based testosterone cypionate? Some time ago, I used a bottle of Wilshire testosterone cypionate which (and I would love someone to confirm this) I believe was cottonseed oil based. This was sold to me by my...

Thanks. I understand a clinic like Defy might be under a different model. To clarify my question - my old Doctor sent my prescriptions to Hallandale. I interfaced with Hallandale directly to organize shipment and payment. The payment did not go through the doctor. Now, with my new doctor, I'm...

I’m curious. For those that deal with Empower either through a doctor or clinic. Who are you paying directly for your medication when it is time to refill your prescription? I’ve recently switched to a doctor that uses empower, however, all medication that is dispensed through Empower, I’m...

Directionally, how would legitimate primobolan affect one's bloodwork if added to consistent testosterone dose after a reasonable length of time, say 4 - 6 weeks? E.g., Adding 200mg p/w of Primo onto 150mg p/w of Test C while already being on the same Test C dosage for a prolonged period if...

Oh definitively - They've looked at everything from hepatitis to autoimmune conditions to NAFLD. But none of my labs have resulted in markers which would suggest further testing. Health has been good. Didn't feel any difference when the transferases were at ~70 vs. ~200. The first link below...

I've been fighting this exact issue for close to a decade. I exercise excessively - weight training 5 days a week 1.5 to 2.5 hours with multiple sets taken close to failure, often times, beyond. I've done this for close to 20 years. After 20 years, you do get progressively better at causing...

Feeling good becomes relative to the time you've been following a specific protocol. I feel my "normal". I don't know If I would feel "better" or "worse" under a different protocol... it has been so long I honestly cannot tell. Yes, 1000ui twice a week is high. I don't particularly want to...

I'm on a 120mg test C, 2000ui HGC and 1 mg anastrozole a week split into two doses. Lab tests have historically been stable Total & Free test is around 1200 - 1300 Free test is around 24 -26 E2 is between 22 - 35 My Doc wants me to stop anastrozole. After all the touted benefits of estradiol...

I'm dead sure this has been explained already on these boards but the correlation is so prevalent that I cant find a post which explains the reason why so many men on TRT are hypothyroid as well. i.e, is hypothyroidism a symptom of TRT? Are they both a symptom of the same underlying problem? Are...

Just like everyone else i'd imagine. Start at the suggested dose, do regular blood tests and adjust accordingly. I have not required adjustment since starting, and have been stable. I have a 6 monthly check-in with my doctor, but I do self monitoring on my own obviously, and far more regularly...

Thanks to everyone for the quick replies. I've been relatively stable below the 1200 mark at my old dosage, but have been struggling to keep it under control for the past 6 months and I'm not sure why this is. Has anyone else had experience in their total testosterone slowly creeping up for no...

I've been trying to optimize my TRT treatment in order to sustain a level Total testosterone level under ng/dl 1200. I've been on TRT for over 2 years. My current dosage of 100mg E3.5D has put me above 1500, so I've reduced the dosage to 60%. How long should I wait to get re-tested again to...
