Mine too..I was able to verify my identity and found all my labs to include the ones I did through discountedlabs.com.

Good call. Did not know you could do that..thanks for the tip!

Called. Looks like they've had them for over a week...apparently staffing changes?

I had a full set of labs done for my 3 month follow-up from Defy on 1/26, and I haven't gotten any results back yet. Does it usually take this long? When I had my initial labs done, I had the results in 4 days, but that wasn't a full panel (had previous labs from my other doctor). Just getting a...

I've been using it for a week now...have noticed the increase in energy, but nothing ground breaking. I will also monitor my weight to see if it helps. I've been doing 1ml a day, so we'll see how that goes. My first injection was in my thigh using a 29gauge 1/2" needle and the pain was...

I ordered mine through Defy, so yes, the DR approved it.

I've been on TRT since July 2017. Since then, I have slowly added inches to my waist and gained over 20 lbs. Some has been muscle, but the tape measurements clearly state otherwise. Before anyone chimes in, I am clearly aware of a proper diet which I have been on track with. I have tried low...

Yeah, I did a test last May and my Cortisol numbers were high in the AM and evenings and my DHEA was very low. This was before I started any TRT or DHEA supplementation. I have since been taking 50mg of DHEA, but it's 25mg split between the morning and afternoon. I may try it at night to see if...

Ok, I’ll run it tomorrow. Yes, it’s a ZRT 4X cortisol test. I didn’t include DHEA this time because I had it tested in my last set of labs and my next set of blood work is coming up.

Even if I didn’t purchase the test from them? I’m doing this on my own.

I purchased a cortisol saliva test as I suspect my cortisol is high at night (waking at 3am). I am a defy patient currently injecting hCG and Test every 3.5 days. I am scheduled to take my test and hCG tomorrow (Monday) morning, and my first saliva test is supposed to be upon waking. Should my...

Awesome..thanks! Do you do the AirMail or EMS shipping option?

Anyone have a good source for in stock Doxazsin, that ships fairly quick? My regular sources (reliablerx, etc) all seem to be out of stock, and I have all the other components for this stack. Any help would be appreciated!

I love to just slice up half an avocado and put it on top of my egg whites and spinach I have for breakfast. I then put some truffle salt or old bay seasoning on it...very delicious. The other half I put in a sealed container and have it for lunch. I make tuna salad with it, mashed avocado, 2...

Thanks! Any questions, please let me know. I just don't want you to fall down the same trap I did. I was so obsessed with obtaining and maintaining that "six pack" that I caused a lot of damage. I too thought I could just eat less and exercise more, but it's not quite that easy. Sometimes less...

I generally eat broccoli, cauliflower, brussel sprouts, mushrooms, asparagus, celery, spinach, and a few carrots on my low carbs days. I also am addicted to avocados, so my meals are based around that. On my high carbs days I add steel cut oats with raspberries & blackberries, sweet potatoes...

Careful not to inflict over-training. This was one of the main reasons I went on TRT. I was on keto for over a year and lost up to 50 lbs, but couldn't lose that last 10-15 lbs of fat around my waist. I kept cutting calories, increasing exercise, and eventually had to see the Dr. My T levels...

I've been reading through this thread the past couple days, and have decided to give this a shot. I am 36, 205lbs 14-15% BF and go to the gym 5-6 days a week. My TRT protocol is .35mL of T with 500iu of HCG E3.5D. I also take 50mg of DHEA and 1750mg of metformin daily, along with multi-vitamins...

I also live in Wisconsin and recently switch to Defy medical. I am a 36 yo male and went through the exact same issues you mentioned. Over a year ago I finally convinced my Dr to get the blood tests, and they came in around 160 ng/dl. The re-test was just barely in the normal range and was told...

I haven't watched it, but that sounds like something that would be suited for my 4 hour drive tomorrow morning. I'll check it out. I wasn't aware of fasting/calorie restriction causing metabolic damage, but over the past 2 years my RMR has dropped significantly. I'm not sure if it was related...

Thanks for all the comments. I eat moderate carbs (around 100-130g daily) and only noticed these cravings once I started Metformin. I have been on Keto (fully fat adapted) off and on for the past 2 years, with IF and multi-day fasts. I went back to SAD (3 months ago) and kept my carbs clean and...

I have been on 1500mg of Metformin SR daily for over a month now. I added it to my TRT protocol because I have had issues with insulin resistance and bloating/weight gain when eating carbs. I currently take a 500mg capsule halfway through my meals (9am, 2pm, 8pm) with a large glass of water...

Absolutely, I will. Thanks again for the direction and help!

Yeah, just got off the phone with them (Defy). I will be sending my labs over and scheduling an initial consult. I think you're right...I've been in this endless loop for a year and it won't get any better. Thanks!

That was my gut reaction as well, but I'm obviously obsessing over it more then they are because it affects me. My only concern is that I leave for military training in January that has me gone for 4+ months, so I hope to get dialed in before then. Is 2 weeks enough time to notice and changes to...

Update: I sent my doctor a note this morning asking about my E2 levels being so low. I also asked to include an Estradiol sensitive test in my next set of labs. Here is is response: "The low E2 results are likely due to lower testosterone levels. So, when the testosterone drops there is less to...

Yeah, I was going to wait until the next labs to see what my next steps are. I've been reading a lot about defy here on the forums, so that may be an option. I did have a CBC test run along with that E test, however the only thing I noticed as a high EOS. Any suggestions for cutting water...

I only had 100mg capsules, but ordered some 25mg pills so I will give that a shot for a few weeks then maybe switch to 25mg EOD. I had a saliva test done a few months back and it showed my DHEA was very low, so that's why I started taking it, it wasn't related to the low E2. Thanks again for the...

I was doing 100mg of DHEA daily..should I decrease to 25mg?

My doctor just lowered my gel applications, so we'll see in November where I sit. I've been on this dosage for 2 weeks now, and don't feel any better. In fact, I feel worse. I would love to switch to injections, but I guess that's up to the doctor and I'm assuming insurance. Applying the gel is...

I appreciate the insight. So, it's possible my DHEA supplement could be contributing to the low E2? I do take a ZMA supplement every night. Should I also forgo that as well?
