I use to do smaller injections more frequently, M/W/F, I actually recently switched to my current protocol few months ago. Main reason I switched was due to test being well over 1500 total and free high out of range at 120mg. My doc believed I just wasn't processing test and frequent injections...
I'm not sure what aspect of my testerone would be off. All free and total have been in middle/upper ranges during time on trt. I just know that I've never felt right being abortion 40ish E, regardless of Test levels. The fact that I can take an AI and performance and overall sex drive sky...
Thank you for the quick response. I'm very into fitness/nutrition and maintaining relatively low BF year round, so even though the water retention is only a few lbs I notice it. I'm not too concerned with that as much as the higher E causing Ed issues..ability to maintain, I pop an AI and...
Hey guys,
I was hoping someone could help me pinpoint what they believe may be going on. I've been on trt for several years and have come to the conclusion that an AI is required for me to minimize high E symptoms. I am due for some bloods in the next 3-4 weeks, but figured in the meantime I'd...
I know i should focus on addressing things one variable at a time, but the one item I've never added was Hcg. I read that it is must have for many on trt, while other's don't see any value and at times negative results. I know it's based on individual, but considering at some point to...
Thanks for all the replies. Another question, everything I've read in regards to going with a ED or EOD protocol indicates that most are able to achieve high test numbers with overall lower weekly totals. If I was to attempt to go to a ever 3.5 days schedule, would you suggest I keep the...
in efforts to not add to many variables or changes to my protocal, would you suggest 20% drop in test and small amount of AI, or just start with test drop?
low drive and not maintaining quality erectoln....that said, I'm getting morning wood more consistently... i wouldn't say it's very bad; but definitely feel like it points to signs of high estro...I've had low, so i know what that feels like. My skin also gets a bit oily
Thank you for such a detailed response. greatly appreciated! Question, based on shbg, do you think going to a 3)e3.5 day protocal should be fine? EOD has been manageable, but would prefer to spread it ou for overall simplicity with my business travel schedule.
I'm right outside the range for...
Hey guys,
Been a while since I've been on the forum, but wanted to get some feedback on recent blood work.
I've tried an EOD protocol for roughly 6-8 weeks of 28mg Test Cyp and nothing else. I do have AI on hand, but don't use it regularly, but every so often when i feel the high estro sides...
You're right, gave you the wrong one. I can't get back on the site at the moment to see the exact range, but it was 44-244. I may be off a few points, but that's pretty accurate of the range when i last checked. So maybe 70 isn't as high?
Thanks madman for detailed response. I have been in the 150-200 range during the entire time and as far as not second the second shot, there have been instances due to travel/schedule where i have not taken my second shot and i noticed a trend of day 5-7 of feeling better , libido wise mainly...
i have my labs from quest diagnostics app. I need to see the doc next week to review labs so i'd imagine there is more detail than what the app is showing me. Here is what i have.
Estrone,LC/MS/MS - 14
Estradiol,Ultra Sentative LC/MS/MS - 9
Estriol Serum - <.10
Total Free Test - 70.9
Test...
I'll get my lab results and post them. As far as free test, your comment about having oily skin is 100% spot on, i've noticed lately my skin has been extray oily , as well as hair. What causes free test to be so high? I'm assuming it's a bad thing to have it too high?
Hey Guys,
I'm hoping some of the more experienced guys can possible help me out. I've posted a few times on the board and haven't been on in a while. So quick background, been on low dose test for last 5 years, last 2 have been under doctor care. I've stayed within 150-200mg per week, most...
Yeah, i just had labs before i started about a month ago. I wonder if they will let me take them again this soon or ask that i stay on protocol for longer duration of time. Maybe i need to lower the dose of HCG.
Thanks for the post, great point and I noticed out of now where i've been shedding a lot of hair lately. What does this mean, HCG is not a good fit for me, or do i need to be taking something else instead? You nailed it.
my protocol is in my original post. That is what i'm doing at the moment and mentioned i'm working with Defy medical so i am under doctors guidance. I've done labs over the years, and have alwasy just taking test e alone at 175-200mg a week, and years of not taking any hcg, i've experienced a...
old protocol that I've been doing for years was just 150-200mg test E and arimidex i would take from time to time, never consistently, but over the years I've realized i probably need to take small dose based on labs. I'm only on second week of using HCG, so today was going to be my 3rd...
Hoping someone can help me out here, i just added hcg to my protocal at 500iu twice a week, i'm only on my 3rd injection and from the first shot i could tell i was getting typical sides of high E. Very oily skin, my hair is oily and overall can feel it's definitely spiked E.
I'm on 80mg test e...
I'd also like to point out that I appear always be tired. I don't wake up with brain fog and sleep well, but literally at any point if I lay down I can pass out. Feel very sluggish and just out of it. I know I have a minor case of sleep apnea that I've had for years, but this feeling I'm...
Thank you for the response. I'll updated the ranges in my original post. As far as the type of Estro test that was performed, all it says is Estriadiol,FREE, LC/MS/MS in the header of the lab result. i don't see the word "sensitive" anywhere, but i does state "This assay has been validated...
Thank you for the reply. Few questions if you don't mind.
Is my estro in good range for my t scores? Granted this may not be my actual estro levels daily since i did take a half tab 4-5 days before labs. Also, the free estro is out of range, never seen this on prior labs before...is this...
Hey guys,
After few weeks of reading the site i decided to join. Great content and a lot of knowledgeable memebers on the board. Very glad i found out about this site :)
I'll keep this high-level, since i'm sure you get these type of questions all the time, but been on doc presribed TRT at...
Hi
UOTE=Gene Devine;86997]30 mg injected twice a week is only going to suppress HPTA and not provide enough supplementation for you to see any benefit from TRT whatsoever.
At the very least 50 mg twice weekly would serve you much better and healthier as well.
Hi gene..new to site and tried...
