Welp, I’ve had another flare up.. without anastrozole... in other words, I don’t think it’s the anastrozole anymore. I found that my eyes hurt after picking my son up from school. So, I went to YouTube and found a video relating to anxiety and sensitivity to light. He summarized that when you...

Thanks for the tip for the eye drops. Got the gel version and man it’s next level on eye comfort. Other than slight twitching of my eye lid today no real discomfort. I skipped my 2nd trt dose on Sunday. I’ll do around 50 mg tomorrow and no anastrozole and see how it goes.

Yeah, I’ll have to do the eye drop thing. I’m also going to reduce my TRT dose I think. I might goto 100mg a week and see if I need it at all. Last time I tested at 100mg a week it was around 600.. I was still on anastrozole it was less than 5. I might not have needed it at all at 100mg. I enjoy...

No, it literally occurred over the weekend. At least to the point of not being able to ignore it anymore. Last dose was Friday at .25mg and my eyes feel around 80% better now.

Dry eyes is a known side effect of Clomid and Ais. I was reading about it last weekend large amounts of women who take these drugs for breast cancer report the same problem. I believe it has to do with inter ocular estrogen being reduced too low? I’m guessing estrogen is a natural lubricant for...

Hello all! I am having an issue. I was previously on Clomid mono treatment for 3 years. It raised me from a 220-260 to 560ish range. The Clomid would dry my eyes out a few hours after taking it. My vision would get slightly cloudy. The dryness would go away within 8 hours. After deciding we...

I think I have figured out what happened. I think I did crash my E2... it’s stable now.. I’m doing 1mg a week broken up in 2 doses. The big thing I changed was I stopped taking the stinging nettle root. I wondered if I had lowered my SHBG too much. I stopped taking it a week later I’m feeling...

Hey guys.. not sure if you are still following but, I can’t help but feel like I felt much better at the 150mg test cyp and 250x3 week vs 100mg hCG 250x3. Libido was through he roof.. I needed less sleep.. I felt like a literal stud. Powerlifting recovery was amazing.. now I feel just ok now...

Ya, I’m just following dr orders.. I agree with you tho. I think I am going to skip the ai this week all together to see how things go. My face has definitely lost its blushed appearance which is nice.. but I really liked feeling like a hoss in my gym and wanting to beat the wife’s door down...

I think I may have found the low point. Eyes are dry and my body overall feels more achy.. I feel like my muscles aren’t recovering as well and lidibo is down.. plus some tennis elbow is flaring up.. Before the last adjustment I was needing some action 3-5 times a week and now it’s been 4-6...

Quick update.. I’ve taken the 1mg 2x a week as prescribed for almost 2 weeks now and have to take my final 1mg dose tomorrow.. I haven’t felt any side effects of being low but I have felt better. Less bloat in stomach and face.. weight did not change at all.. at the start of TRT I was 231 and...

Here’s my thyroid results for some reason it did not come back with the regular labs. TSH 2.79 range .450-4.5 Reverse T3 13.6 R 9.2-24.1 Free T4. .95. R .82-1.77 Psa .9 I’m at the low end of normals on t3 and t4 but good for TSH?

Ya I was tempted to not do the initial 2 mg wk over the next 2wks and just stick to 1 mg.. maybe cut them in half and take it on my injection days for simplicity. I think the major source of my conversion is I’m carrying a lot of belly fat. Oddly enough she said I don’t have to come back for 6...

I had my appointment yesterday and my test came back >1500 and 92 estrodial. She cut me back to 1/2cc weekly and maintaining hCG dosing and has started me on anastrozole she wants me to take 2 - 1mg tabs for 2 weeks then one a week after... thoughts on this? Should I cut them in half and do it...

Honestly I haven’t felt like I have ran out of gas for the last two injections. I thought to myself today that I didn’t “feel” like I HAD to have it today. I did still do it though. I have had a bit of fun in rotating injection sites.. I’ve done butt, leg and deltoids... I have been using a 25...

Things seem to be going good! The HCG has stopped having such a strong effect on the boys.. Only problem I’m having is that I’m gaining weight.. like 11 pounds since I started.. I’ve been lifting weights pretty heavily.. I’m following a 3 day a week program from Bodybuilding.com. I have one of...

I’ve done 2 video updates since my first. I’m feeling pretty good with the exception a few hours of that one day. I think I may have overdone it on the carbs that day for lunch and I crashed. I try to eat more low carb higher protein and fat meals. Anyways, I’ll get my labs on Dec 14th and I’ll...

So I think what happened yesterday might not have been test related.. because yesterday when I woke up I felt good. I ate lunch at 12:30 and about an hour later I hit the wall and a few hours later I was feeling fine again. I woke up feeling fine too. Maybe I ate something. Who knows I think...

So a quick update. I got the HCG in yesterday took my first dose and a few hours later my boys were sore.. like blue balls sore. Guess they got the message lol. Anyways I am happy to report that the 2-3 days after the injection I’m feeling great... mainly the day after and the second day. What’s...

An update, I lifted some weights last night after not having the energy to do it in a long time. After my first set I felt my muscles felt pumped up and warm.. not as strong as my teens but a noticeable change compared to before. It felt good! When I lifted before I would just feel deflated...

https://youtu.be/UuRRhfxe2dI I did a video for my history and upto now for low t

So, wife did my injection last night! We did 75MG and will do the next injection Sunday. She’s a CRNA so it was no biggy for her and she may have even enjoyed sticking me.. lol Dr’s office wanted 100$ a month for HCG got her to send my script to empower and it’s going to cost 39$ a month! Score...

You guys got me worried about the dosing so I just looked at the actual prescription and she actually prescribed 150MG weekly. I guess I misunderstood what she was saying but it’s clear on the prescription. That sound more reasonable?

Before beginning Clomidiphene I was experiencing testicular atrophy and pretty strong constant dull pain in both testicles. Nothing helped sexually.. abstaining.. lightening the load.. nothing. My urologist said he believed it was from atrophy because it stopped when I began Clomid. HCG should...

Umm.. it’s just what she wanted to start me at.. she didn’t give any reasons.. I’m sure she will back it down should my levels be too high next month.

Great news!!! So for labs.. Total test 249 Estrodiol 12.6 Thyroid everything else good. I didn’t see anywhere for LH or FSH.. anyways. Dr prescribed 200MG test Cypionate weekly 250iu HCG 3 Times a week.. and she anticipates an AI but she’s going to wait for labs to indicate it’s needed. She...

No unfortunately I haven’t seen the labs.. had blood drawn on Thursday. I’ll be meeting the Dr and hopefully walking out with a good action plan.. I’ll keep you posted as soon as I get the plan and my labs.

Welp, my first appointment ( post labs ) is on Tuesday. I cant wait because currently im wearing a bandaid on both nipples.. my shirt touching them is killing me. Guessing my levels have tanked.. mental clarity suffering too. Took 10 days without Clomid for my nipples to get ultra sensitive.

Well, another twist in the road, my father in law recommended that I call a place that his friend goes to for TRT. He said his friend has been going there for years and loves them. So, I called them. I spoke with the nurse and she said.. we do trt anti estrogen and Hcg as part of our protocol...

Wow... his symptoms are EXACTLY what mine are.. the heat intolerance and exercise intolerance. If I do any high intensity workouts like CrossFit, which I love but haven’t been able to do, I can’t breathe.. I’m breathing hard and still feel like I’m suffocating.. and then later I get like a 24 hr...

So higher SHBG is a good thing? I was reading this from the definitive trt manual about it.. wondering your thoughts.. my free test was low.. and SHGB was high.. In a healthy young male, 60% of testosterone is attached to Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin (SHBG).103 SHBG is produced mainly by the...
