I gained 12 lbs of water weight in the 2 months I was on T and HCG. Once I stopped both the weight came off around week 3 and only took about 10 days. I kind of want to start only the T back up to see if the water weight gain happens again.

Okay, thanks. Guess I have to try and see.

Will Testosterone without HCG cause you to have shrunken testicles until you stop the testosterone?

Definitely didn’t think there’d be a chance I would feel better, lol.

That's interesting

Thanks guys!

A liver specialist wants me to stop taking testosterone for a month due to her wanting clean labs for hepatitis B levels. I’ve had it my whole life, but just now am seeing a specialist to see if I need treatment. What should I expect over the next month?

Hadn’t heard of that patch before, thanks for letting me know.

Yep

I have Ceebis Tadalafil 20mg x79 and Suhagra Sildenafil 100mg x 20. Got both off Alldaychemist. I don’t like the side effects so I don’t need these anymore. $10 for everything to cover the cost of Priority shipping. PayPal is [email protected]. First come, first serve! Nelson...

I’ve been taking 150 mg of Iron daily, half in the AM, half in the PM. I plan to get my levels checked again in a few months.

I do plan to get labs after 6-8 weeks. So far so good though. I think the NDT and Beef Liver are having a positive effect. I went without coffee this weekend and didn’t miss it. Normally I’d be dragging ass if I didn’t have the usual 1 big cup of strong coffee.

Thanks for the info. If I wanted to test that theory how long would I need to be off the HCG to start noticing any differences?

I’m taking the Beef Liver as well and am happy with the extra energy it provides. I was wondering about the Beef Thyroid though...

Thanks, Nelson! I check that stuff out.

Anyone using Ancestry Supplements Grass Fed Beef Thyroid? Or have an opinion on it?

I ordered Antithyroglubulin AB (Thyroid Ab) Thyroid Peroxidase Antibody (TPO) and Ferritin Iron TIBC % Saturation

Thanks for the info. Are you in the medical field? Self-taught? I’ll bring up growth hormone when I have my consultation on Monday. Why aren’t the more accurate tests used? Cost?

Labs on 3/7 are pre-TRT. Labs on 5/7 - last injection was 5/4 in the morning. Next injection was 5/7 in the evening. 3/7/19 5/7/19 Range Hemtocrit 46.7 48...

No full iron panel was done on my initial labs or the follow-up labs that were recently done. Initial labs: LH was 3.4 (1.7 - 8.6) TSH was 4.050 (0.450 - 4.500) IGF-1 was 136 (83 - 233) T3 and T4 were checked on the May 7th as an addition to my follow-up labs, due to TSH being on the high end...

I posted the initial labs because it would be likely that someone would ask.

Just talked to Defy. They said to take the anastrozole twice a week. My labs are moving from the end of this month to next week to see where my estradiol is at, as well as free T3 and T4, due to TSH being 4.05 (0.45-4.5). 500mg Dandelion root a day was suggested to help with water retention.

How long do you have to be on a protocol for the lab results to be considered valid?

The protocol says to take the AI as needed. I think gaining about two pounds a week justifies taking it. Maybe every other day is too much though. I'm not really comfortable staying on the original protocol and continuing to gain weight at this rate.

I'm getting labs at the end of this month.

I'm in my sixth week of treatment and have gained ~12 lbs of water weight (6'3" and have gone from 185 to 197) and have slight nipple sensitivity. My initial protocol was: .43 Testosterone, twice a week = 1.72 every two weeks (Using two week intervals to smooth out the results) .50 HCG, twice a...

Serving size is six capsules a day. How big are the capsules? Do you space them out - 2 at breakfast, 2 at lunch, etc.?

I appreciate your honesty.

Has anyone compared the prices from Defy/Labcorp? I will need to get labs done next month.
