    Reaction to Bacteriostatic Water

    I've been on TRT for about 10 years. I never added HCG until the last 3 months. At first I used the saline solution that came with the HCG, but I wanted to keep the HCG longer so I switched to bacteriostatic water. I'm having an allergic reaction (hard, sore, itchy lump at injection site) to the...

    Firm, painful knot at injection site

    I've been on TRT for 10 years. I inject 0.2 ml (40mg) of testosterone cypionate twice per week. A few months ago I started injecting HCG (200mg) at the same time. I first draw the testosterone into the syringe, and then draw the HCG into the same syringe. I use a new needle when drawing each...

    Will HCG work after 10 years of TRT?

    I think my title pretty much says it all. I've been on TRT for about 10 years for secondary hypogonadism. I don't take any other hormones or substances, just T (50 mg injected 2X week). My testicles are miniscule, as would be expected. Is it too late to add HCG to my regimen?

    Estimating T-Level

    Is there a formula that can be used to estimate the T level that will be achieved after injecting a specific amount of T? I'm assuming weight is an important variable. Or, does everyone metabolize T very differently so that a formula does not work? Is there also a way to predict T level at...

    High Erythropoietin

    I'm 58 and have been on TRT for 8 years. Currently using hydrogel from Empower. I've been struggling to manage high hematocrit caused by the TRT. I've been undergoing periodic phlebotomies. My lab results keep showing a high lever of Erythropoietin (33); I'm wondering if that's from the TRT or...

    Testosterone Gel/Cream applied to scalp?

    I've been on TRT for nearly 10 years. In the past year I've had to switch from injections to a gel, because of problems with elevated hematocrit. I'm finding very poor absorption of androgel through the skin on my shoulders. I've read about good results people are getting with non-alcohol based...

    Success stories for managing TRT induced increase in hematocrit?

    I have been using testosterone cyp injections for the last 6 years to treat low T levels. I inject 0.66 ml once per week. I recently had to get a new Dr. because my regular GP retired. I live on the Big Island, where it is very hard to find good doctors. Long story short, my new Doc ordered lots...
