Reviving this thread to ask whether storing Cypionate the the refrigerator may extend it even further beyond expiration date. I currently store in my bedroom (cool/dry/dark). I didn't think oils store well in the refrigerator.

Thanks for the replies. I don't recollect any discussion regarding pulsing to the 400mg to 600mg range. I was wondering if it was more along Taeian Clark's recommendation of 10% to 20% above therapeutic TRT dosage.

Nelson - Am I mistaken or was there a study regarding the prostate benefits associated with occasionally pulsing testosterone above baseline TRT dosage?

I find Taeian Clark's theory of Nandrolone only for six weeks on and five weeks off interesting in that he says androgen receptor down regulation begins after week six. Then take off five weeks and repeat. He also recommends occasionally bumping TRT. For example, bump 100mg/wk to 125mg or 150mg...

deleted, wrong thread

Old thread ... Any update on the color improvement?

LabCorp uses immunoassay so that will be a problem with my Uro's results. If I stop the 50 mg/week Nandrolone for a month before my labs, will that give enough time to normalize the panel? I know the ester is long lasting.

Does Nandrolone increase total testosterone. For instance, if at 100mg/week T Cypionate my total T is 1,000 ngdL and I add 50mg/week Nandrolone will my total T increase above 1,000 ngdL?

Ok, thank you for this but, are you saying not to use the Fin with Test/Nandrolone?

Man, my head hurts from reading this post in an effort to decide whether to use Nandrolone. So many of the posts and videos warn about lipids and left vent heart issues yet I'm assuming it's due to usage in the average 400mg range (only because most of the resources I'm reading come from...

Interesting, thank you for this. I started TRT at 50 yrs with a Urologist at 100mg T/wk. My PSA was .9 ng/ml while on finasteride. In three years, I had one PSA reading bounce up to 1.4 ng/ml but all the other 6 month readings have been either 1.1 or 1.2 ng/ml. My digital exams have been...

It took me a couple weeks posting questions in forums to assemble a list of Urologists who Rx'd TRT. I took a chance with one who I researched had participated on a TRT conference panel. My labs at 50 yo came back just under 400 but I ran through my symptoms and he offered me clomid, pellets or...

Well put, and thank you. My Uro has not recommended I stop finasteride. We compare my panels every 6 mos and the PSA has been consistent.

Great point regarding my own labs. I've asked him before about testing at trough instead and adding Free and SHBG he's set on Peak T/Total T/PSA/Estradiol/Hematocrit and others. My trouble is finding another Dr in MD that's worth the headache of the search. Getting my own labs may help if I need...

Thanks. Yes, I'm not thrilled with the Uro's testing protocol. He orders labs 48hrs after most recent injection and does not order Free T or SHBG. He's concerned (as am I) with PSA because of family prostate issues, mine is .9. If I dial back to 85mg/wk, how long before I judge impact?

Quick 2.5yr update: I'm 52y/o 5'10" 175lbs and have been lifting weights for max strength 4 days per week since beginning TRT (very little cardio). My drive, confidence, well being, mood, morning wood/performance have all greatly improved and I consider TRT a great success. Libido is improved...

I don't think it's unfair to wonder the same about Crisler.

I read TOT Bible 24 mos ago and it's what got me on this journey and lead me here and how I found my Uro. I've seen Jay as a guest on several other podcasts but those hosts must keep him on topic. He's got a lot going on in his mind IMO as he sways and figgets a ton while talking. Just as long...

I've been away from the Forum for a few months ... what did I miss re Campbell?

Thank you. I need to learn more about cumulative exposure and snoring. I only ever drink on Friday and Saturday and my weight has only slightly increased to 178lbs at 5'10"

I've been on 100 mg/week TRT for approximately 18 mos. Began with weekly injections and, with so much to monitor regarding impact/improvements in my life, I did not notice an increase in my snoring. I moved to twice weekly injections approximately 6 mos ago and, as I became acclimated to life...

My Dr orders blood labs 48 hrs post injection (I know trough is preferred by most TRT Drs) and I remember being concern with my 1050 T reading heading into my 12mo appointment thinking the Dr was going to reduced me from 100 mg/wk back to 75 mg/wk ... however, he just asked how I felt remarking...

I'm at month 18 on TRT (T-Cyp with no add-ons) and everything is going well @ 50mg every 3.5 days. My PSA was .5 before I began and it increased and has held at 1.1 after beginning TRT. My Urologist at Univ MD has not been concerned about the PSA and straight up said from day one that he...

I took just two. Might try just one tonight.

I think once you realize the cash price, you'll want to send your insurance company a Christmas card. I began my TRT on Xyosted and would have continued with it had insurance covered it ... why not, it's so easy. In fact, my insurance refused to cover T all together because I was just above the...

Been on TRT since becoming a member here. Before TRT, MW only occurred if I slept in. Also, I was lacking energy and libido but then TRT changed all that. At 100mg Cypionate (split into two doses), MW is 7 days a week ... a few times a week I actually wake up at 2:30 - 3:30 am with MW...

My Urologist also does not pull SHBG nor does he order labs at trough. I administer 100mg T per week and my TT was over 1,000 48hrs after injection. He was not concerned because he's "treating the symptoms" while most notably monitoring my estradiol, PSA and RBCs. IMO, having the most...

I just picked up my Rx last night from Walgreens where I had it transferred for the first time due to their better GoodRx price. The pharmacist gave me the same line about it being "single dose" and that it "may possibly go bad." We went back and forth agreeing that a good cleaning with an...

Curious why your Dr. didn't transfer or refer you to another Dr so you could continue with GoodRx?

One of the toughest things with TRT and the medical community is getting a Dr to prescribe T if you're not "low" by the numbers. This is where TRT clinics save the day because they treat/prescribe symptoms. I got lucky with a local Urologist but unlucky with insurance. Anyway, for those who...
