I've been shaving the boys since I was 23 and I'm 50 now. I do it daily in the shower and I can almost do it without having to look these days. I think in all the time I've been doing it, I've nicked myself less than half a dozen times.

I'm currently reading The Body Keeps The Score which offers a bit of insight into why anxiety can be a bugger to shift.

I like the convenience of every four days or even once per week. However, regardless of any frequency, I only ever seem to feel good in the four to six weeks directly after changing frequency and/or dosage. In that time I feel happy with good libido. Then after that initial period, everything...

Hi everyone. Hope you're all well. In late March my doctor changed my protocol and for about a month afterwards I felt great with a really decent libido. Then everything went flat. This isn't a new occurrence to me; it seems that I feel better whenever my hormones are in a state of flux. I've...

Have a read of A Headache In The Pelvis. I'm still formulating my opinion on all of this, but I suspect that TRT (and/or general anxiety) interacts with the central nervous system which can cause some men to "brace" (tighten up their pelvic muscles) subconsciously for extended periods of time...

Here's a weird observation for you: I noticed at the tail-end of the adjustment period each time I lowered my dose, I would have a couple of days when I was peeing for Scotland, and then my mood lifted and everything settled out. My layman's guess is that there was some kind of oestradiol...

I've lowered my dose a couple of times in the past, also by 25% at a time. I felt rotten the first time I did it and it took about six weeks to levels out. The second time (also a 25% drop) I got just as depressed, anxious and sore but it only last about two weeks. It feels rubbish when you're...

I stopped taking Himplasia because it's a pain to get here in the UK. I now use Vitabiotics Wellman Prostace. I was just saying in another thread that I'm not 100% sure how well they work. However, I'm better than I was a year ago though so I'm going to continue to take them.

So far soo good, @Neil. I still get the odd mild flare-up if I'm stressed and I'm just getting over a spring flu that really flared it up but for the most part it's been fine. To be honest though, I don't know if going to weekly injections were the ultimate root cure or if the timing of it was...

Thanks @Nelson Vergel. I was 15 years on Paxil which almost completely ruined my erections. Two-and-a-half years on, I've been put on Trazodone to help me with anxiety and it's working a treat. I'd hate to lose my erection ability again.

Excuse the dumb question, @Nelson Vergel. On this thread you say that Trazodone is very erection friendly, but your post lists that it causes sexual dysfunction. Is that with erections or that it makes it more difficult to orgasm?

Thanks for this. I recently spoke to another guy who developed prostatitis late last year after being put on every-other-day injections, which also eased right up after he moved to weekly. EoD issues must be a "thing" for some guys.

It's definitely all linked IMO. Can I ask what your injection schedule looks like?

I took the himplasia tablets for two months, twice per day. I can't recommend them enough as - for me - the effects were almost instant and very noticeable. I'll be getting my bloods done at the start of next month and I'll feed back once I get my results. I'm still injecting once per week...

Not quite after the first big injection. On 7th of November I was due to inject my usual 30mg on the EOD protocol which I skipped. By the next day the "stinging bladder" feeling was much reduced. It was then on Thursday the 10th that I did the 105mg injection. By the end of that weekend my...

Since February this year I've been injecting 30mg of enanthate every two days. I was originally on 80mg of cypionate every four days but that gave me massive anxiety, but the new EOD protocol sorted that out. However, in May this year I was diagnosed with prostatitis and I've been back and...

I've been taking these tablets for a week and I think they're amazing. I'm peeing like a young man now. Thanks for the recommendation.

Thanks for the info. I’ve ordered a 3-pack. I’ll stop my Cialis for a week before I try it.

Would you happen to know if this has any interactions with Cialis? I take 5mg/day.

I understand that. From what I’ve learned, the inflammation is microscopic and doesn’t (always) mean your prostate will swell up (a DRE confirmed this in my case). I was wondering though. Would the sudden drop in testosterone dosage cause a prostate to become inflamed?

Hi all. Hope everyone's well. Quick question: can lowering your TRT dose too quickly cause prostate issues/prostatitis/CPPS? Long version of the story: I've been on TRT since July 2018, and I've spent the tail end of last year and most of this year reducing my TRT dose as it was causing...

This may be the dumbest question you'll read today so apologies in advance. Yesterday I was diagnosed with prostatitis and was prescribed 100mg of doxycycline daily. Just under 24 hours later and my symptoms have improved substantially. My question is: can I expose my wife to my semen whilst...

I just handed over my (long) list of blood tests and diagnosis letters and the "crossover" of my treatment was seamless. I did wonder if I'd be asked to stop taking test for a while but it never happened.

It's the Mojo Clinic. I signed up with them about a month ago and I haven't looked back.

I don't want to sound like a shill so I won't name the company unless someone asks me to directly. I just switched to a new UK company and got a three-month supply of enanthate for £66.00. I had previously been with Balance My Hormones and my last 10ml bottle of cypionate with them cost me £368.00.

I'm in the "dissatisfied with BMH" camp. I had a phone meeting with them in early December to ask about reducing my dosage and was told that the doctor would have a response for me within a few days. I'm still waiting. This isn't the first time that I've reached out to them for help and/or...

@Cataceous and @madman: Many thanks again for your advice. I had no idea that lowering dosages could be so rough! I lay in bed last night - sweating buckets - going over old arguments with people from years ago. This really isn't me. Fingers crossed it doesn't last too long. I don't want to be...

Many thanks for this. I'm with a TRT Clinic in the UK and they simply don't warn or inform me about this type of thing ie. changing dose.

Dear all. Hope you're all well. I was wondering if I might tap into some of the great knowledge of you guys. Thanks to this forum, I recently decided to titrate my dosage of 160mg (test cyp) down to a more "sensible" level where I don't need to use an AI, and still get the benefits of TRT. On...

Thanks you so much for your reply and the links. This is exactly the type of information I was looking for.

"Less is better" is something I'm leaning towards more and more these days. Physically I feel great but from the moment I wake up (which is usually before my alarm clock) to the moment I go to bed, I feel quite wired. It's only recently that I learned that testosterone can over-stimulate the...
