Hi all. About a month ago I believe I saw healthman post his sperm being in the fertile range with trt,fsh,HCG. I am currently on 100mg of test cypionate a week , 500hcg eod, and 40iu fsh Mon,we'd,Fri. I am 25 years old, married and my wife and I are looking to start a family. My uro wanted me...

After I got labs I did switch to 50mg Sunday and 50mg Thursday. (This week) to soon to notice a difference I think.

Current protocol: 100mg test cyp Sunday 500iu HCG eod 40iu fsh M,W,f Anastrozole 0.25mg Monday and Wednesday 300mg DIM daily Labs drawn on friday Testosterone total: 697ng/dL Testosterone free: 22.9pg/mL Shgb: 36.9 nmol/mL Estradiol: 45.6 pg/mL Total estrogen: 81pg/mL Hemoglobin:16g/dL...

I guess the better question would have been what blood levels have others seen for people on 100mg testosterone cypionate and 500iu HCG 3-4x weekly.

Free and total test, estradiol, h/h, shbg all will be drawn tomorrow

So I am getting blood work done tomorrow. I am taking 100mg test cypionate on Sunday, 500hcg eod, 40fsh Mon,we'd,fri. I take anastrozole .25mg Sunday and Wednesday. Which brings me to my question. What do you guys think my total and free t will come up as in ng/dL? I feel awesome but right...

This is exciting news as I am on 100mg of test cyp a week with 500iu HCG eod and 40iu FSH Mon,wed,fri.

Off topic question but it is for Nelson. I am a registered nurse with a background in emergency department medicine. I am curious as to how I could get involved in research regarding TRT.

Hey guys. If you are not aware I a have a new thread called New Protocol. HCG alone wasn't doing it for me and my doctor was open minded to trying to Lipshultz HCG protocol. So I inject testosterone cypionate 100mg every Sunday. I do 500iu of HCG eod. 50 units of fsh m,w,f . Anastrozole 0.5mg...

Just an update. Switching to HCG eod 500ius. Nothing else is changing. Get a seman analysis in the next few weeks along with labs.

Healthman what is your fsh dose

After very mild success with HCG monotherapy at 1000iu 3x a week I made an appointment with my uro. Was still having issues with drive and Ed. My uro has placed me on 100mg of testoterone cypionate,a total 1100 iu divided into 3 doses (more on that later), and 50iu of FSH 3x a week. My...

Can anyone tell me the cost of empowers pharmacies FSH?

Currently awaiting my HCG from empower. Was significantly cheaper around 80 bucks. Thanks Nelson. Also had my follow up appointment last Wednesday. Placed on 0.25mg anastrozole twice a week. Any thoughts on when is the best time to take it?. Also my uro told me that once my wife is pregnant he...

Going to give Empower a try. Called Akina yesterday to re-up on my HCG. They called today and informed we they don't know if and when they will carry HCG again. If I end up going without HCG for a week I may take 12.5mg of clomid twice a week until I get my prescription issue fixed.

I get mine through Akina compound pharmacy is Virginia. $120 for 10000units.

Blood results in. Total t 697ng/dl Free t 21.6 pg/ml Estradiol came in high at 48pg/ml. Think once my MD adds in an aromatase inhibitor my testoterone numbers will increase and I will feel better.

I agree. Figured my mood and mind state can all be effects from elevated estradiol. Seem to have added a couple lbs into the midsection as well. I too believe that the alternative therapies to trt should only be temporary solutions, as they seem to be more difficult to manage in comparison to...

Contemplating breaking up one of 1000 units a of hcg. so my routine would like Sunday 1000 units, Tuesday 1000 units, Thursday 500, Saturday 500.

So, as I said before was feeling good Sunday-thursday. Woke up Friday after 8 hours of sleep. Feeling tired, no libido, low motivation ect. Same thing has carried on into today. Thinking it's because HCG is quickly metabolized. Any thoughts?

10 the shot this week of 1000 units of HCG. Felt good all week. Still room for improvement. Definitely think this will be a good stop gap until starting trt. Wife and I are trying for first kid over the next couple weeks. We will see how it goes as she has PCOS.

Also I forgot to mention. Dr. Melograno does not want me taking anastrozole until labs are drawn. So i stopped taking it on week 1. I dont have any sorry nipples or anything indicating e2 is high. I do supplement with DIM 150mg daily and tumeric. Which are supposed to help with estrogen. Also my...

8th shot was Sunday. Feel pretty good Sunday and today. Still feel like there is room to improve though.

5th shot done on Sunday. Balls were bigger this morning. Had a strong morning erection. Still not feeling much different in regards to mood, energy, and libido.

Did my 4th shot yesterday. Today feeling pretty down, fatigues, lack of energy or motivation. Probably being unrealistic but I was hoping I would be feeling improvement in symptoms. Still no change in energy, libido isn't there but erectile dysfunction seems to have resolved, my mood just...

Ultimately, I don't believe in desensitized leydig cells. The only studies that I have seen that supported this was conducted on rats not humans.

Dikow, clomid is still an option for me. I was using clomid at 12.5 Ed. But the side effects became intolerable. A lower dose is still option in the future. For now I would like to continue with HCG as I like the bioidentical component as an alternative for trt.

Han0ng unfortunately the increase in testi size seems to decreased. Did an injection Sunday night and notice that that my testis are fullest in the morning.

Quick update. This morning noticed my testicles were significantly larger. Hopefully this means I am responding well.

Did my first subq injection on Thursday 9/7/17. 1000units. Too soon to tell anything. Had my first strong erection when the wife and I messed around yesterday. Probably just coincidence though. Plan on doing my injections Sunday Tuesday Thursday. Then anastrozole 0.5mg Monday Friday. Thankful...

Because I crash around 1-2 months after clomid stops. Back down to as low 270s ng/L. I need something to keep my levels up so I don't feel like shit. Clomid raised my levels but didn't improve symptoms. Started getting blurred vision and insomnia as well.
