Abstract Background: A link between androgen use and the risk of cancers, especially prostate and breast cancer, has been suggested. The knowledge about a possible association is limited. Objective: The study aimed to investigate cancer incidence rates, particularly those related to prostate...

My non-medical two cents. GoodRx 10 cc 200 mg/ml is about $40. This business of HRT clinics is the equiv of pill mills for opioids IMO and they can rape you on cost and unnecessary labs that they get kick backs on bc they can, knowing most docs either won't or under treat with T. I've seen...

Did the scan include the vestibular nerve and they ruled out acoustic neuroma?

It's not the gel and drinking more water will drive it lower, not higher. I'd follow up with your doc and make sure nothing else is going on (occult blood loss or anemia of other origin). Gels have the least effect on Hb/HCT, inj esters the greatest.

The question is, is it the increased HCT, or is there something else going on (genetic predisposition with increased T independent of increased HCT or combined risk factors) that is driving this. Nadeem et al, 2013 showed that secondary polycythemia in COPD patients (HCT 53.5% vs 43.6%) was not...

They didn't have baseline iDXA data, it may well be as they mentioned in the article, higher activity following HRT and they may have lower BMD and are at higher risk of fractures because of low T and likely E2, compounded with less activity.

The only way to effectively manage E2 is with a non-aromatizable androgen in place of some T (some depends on how much you aromatize). In an ideal world, if it were available compounded, drostanolone enanthate. Same relative t 1/2 as TE or TC and can still maintain the anabolic equiv of T in...

The ester form of T is a prohormone and is inert, in the end what is released after the esterase acts on the ester is testosterone, the active form. The ester simply dictates the rate of release of the active hormone. Prop will give you a shorter duration of action but higher blood concentration...

First how much total volume will the vial hold? For PS, 2.5 ml is about it. Second, what dosing are you going to use of each peptide? Regardless of what volume you reconstitute, the ratio will be 2:1, IPA/CJC, respectively, if that is what you want. If you want equal dosing per inj of each, the...

10 mg 200 mg/ml Test C generic is about $40 Good Rx.

Feel my best with 100 TC and 20 TP every 5 days, and 500 IU HCG twice a week. Haven't checked my T levels in years, wouldn't change anything regardless. Post 1 1/2 yr HOLEP PSA 0.32. Phlebos about every 10 weeks, HCT < 52%, all other blood chems and lipids good along with BP. E2 runs 90 - 100...

One of the guys on another board had his Empower ND tested HPLC, came back around 190 mg/ml. There are simple colormetric tests such as Roid Test that the BBs use for their gear. They make a quantitative and qualitative tests for testosterone esters (C and E) and ND. Crude yes, but they get you...

I use Pregnyl. Take a 10 cc syringe and 23 - 25 g 1", generally the vial to be reconstituted has some over pressure, I'll draw about 5 cc of air from the HCG vial and create a vacuum, then fill the syringe with 10 cc of BAC water (MC makes a good point regarding saline vs BAC) for multi dose. Be...

Think ratios, not absolutes. In very rough terms, 76/8 = 9.5, 162/17 = 9.5. Leave it alone. The system is working as it should be.

Thanks. The girlfriend just received one. We did the alcohol experiment, yes = trainwreck.

Looking into to an Oura ring, do you find it helpful? I wear a home holter and PAC activity many times spikes between 10p and 2a. My dentist suggested the Oura to track HRV, SO2 and sleep cycles. Would have to use my little finger, only one that fits and I'm not fat.

Based on a 1984 study. Really? Before decades of clinical use showing safety and efficacy. Nothing but political and cash. T_space is correct, legit UG OX is about as easy to obtain as a T shirt from Amazon if one does their homework. It was never about safety, if it was the FDA wouldn't be...

Political IMO. If it weren't a drug that is abused for cosmetic reasons, they would leave it alone. Unfortunate for those that could benefit from it clinically (cachexia, sarcopenia, recovery from surgery esp involving skeletal muscle and injury, etc.). Regardless, it just forces more people...

This really underscores two major issues. One the less docs want to prescribe, the more the on line clinics can rip off those willing to pay, and it is also forcing an otherwise law abiding group into illegal activity esp non-binary, trans and the older guys trying to stay glued together...

I had 4 consults with different neurosurgeons, all told me fusion was the only option if I wanted to stay out of a wheel chair and in constant pain and the outcome would likely be in my favor. Little choice. I'm a QOL guy, without it I'd rather be dead. I don't fear death, I fear a life without...

Best option is the hybrid (maintains mobility and preserves the discs above) and make sure you find a best of breed neurosurgeon and general surgeon. Yes the recover is a bitch but if you can avoid the DVT and complications, in a year you'll be happy you got it done. I'll let you know about sex...

You should talk to Rick Collins about that or read Legal Muscle his book from 2002, if you can find a copy, it is very detailed and specific about the laws regarding non-script possession and how LE goes about their business if your package is ID'd. What you have to ask yourself is, if I'm that...

All fine until you're that one guy who ends up the target of a controlled delivery and some overzealous young prosecutor with nothing better to do than trying to rid the world of those evil testosterone users and make a name for him/herself. In most states just 2 vials of non script is a felony...

You really don't. That flushing is common, but I've known people using the IPA/CJC have it for a week or so then its gone, or some batches it occurs, others it does not. I have not figured that one out. Could be the body adjusting, or could be the peptide has lost potency. Best gauge is to look...

Not sure when I can stop it. They said 3 mo but will know more when I get there. Yes anterior hybrid (fused L5/S1 and Prodisc L at L4/L5) on March 21st, they really tear things up on the left side going in and with a tight brace and swelling no surprise I got a DVT with the inflammation. Was on...

No, just be careful when adding the BAC, very slowly. You can denature proteins with foaming.

Has anyone had any experience with Trimix injections while on Eliquis? Had a DVT following lumbar fusion (ALIF) and on Eliquis currently. While ED improved considerably after HOLEP (Sept 22), dealing with major back surgery recovery (March 23) has made the ED worse again. Hematologist wasn't...

I reconstitute the 5/5 mg IPA/CJC with 2.5 ml of BAC. That yields 2 mg/ml or 200 mcg/10 units or 0.1 cc. Usual dosing is 100 - 300 mcg before bed. Always start with the lowest dose. You should feel a flushing sensation within minutes after a sc inj. PS products have a vacuum in the vial. Be...

May be GABA related, why some take it before bed.

This thread explains what my urologist has been going through.
