so due to low T for a long time i sadly got into drinking alcohol for like 5 months now, daily (except a week and some days off here and there) around 12 beers a day.
obviously that needs to stop and im already trying to reduce and then stop alcohol completely.
so, ive heard that alcohols...
I did almist 10 weeks of e3.5d 100mg test e.
Then i switched to 60mg MWF and all hell broke loose after 1.5 weeks on that protocol with low t/e2 symptoms.
Then I did 6 weeks of 130mg e5d still felt bad.
No i just finished 5 weeks on 180mg e7d and my e2 is finally up again
I can understand that this is a TRT only, and not a AAS site.
Everyone is different but low T/e2 can be mental hell, especially for those who already have some mental problems.
I started drinking alcohol everyday due to low t/e2.
I also tried dbol to raise e2 (it was the obsessive thoughts...
But are you sure its the T level you feel? I always thought estradiol had a longer half life than T, which is why i felt better on gel, even at night, with a t level way lower than any injection protocol.
I googled a Diagramm for testavans duration of effects and according to that T drops to...
With normalize you mean they dont go back to baseline before next morning? I dont understand it either, even gel manufactures own studies about the test levels and duration seem to differ.
All i know is that on androgel (after that i used testavan, which i thought was better) after 36hrs i was...
Gel/cream should soak into the fat slowly releasing from there. If you apply to scrotal skin it goes "straight to blood" even more so with dmso.
You get a big blast peak with less duration, which may cause additional sides
I started e5 2 weeks ago and want to complete 6 weeks and take.bloods first. If free t could be higher i may try e7d. I dont seem to aromatize much on injections, i may need higher e2 (just a guess since i cant get lc ms testing here, but i will judge by symptoms)
The reason i dont want to...
I heard conflicting info on when and how to test levels on gel. Some said to take bloods 4hrs after application,.some said right in the morning befor3 next application. Cause once i had a test a few hrs after application which tested at 2200ngl (on 46mg of T in gel) so my dose was halfed...
Im just asking cause most people say you need e3.5d minimun to get somewhat stable levels.
But as i didnt even get high e2 on 100mg e3.5d and still felt like i needed more i switched to e5d.
I was on the 3.5d protocol for around 11 weeks
I also felt much better on gel than on ed eod mwf or...
So after some trial and error I came to th3 conclusion that ed eod mwf dont work at all for me, i get low T symptoms even on 200mg per week when injecting that frequent.
I feel much better on e3.5d but not good enough.
Now Im trying out e5d and if that isnt good enough i may even try e7d...
I had low e2 after lgs 4033 use (it may have recovered later but i had less bad symptoms of low t years before, but it got way worse) it was <5 pg/ml e2. Doctors laughed at me for asking to get a "womans hormone" tested.
Tldr: low e2 for me causes anxiety, paranoia, obsessive/ptsd like...
So do you think/experienced that high dose aromatase/e2 acticity can kickstart things again?
Im using e2 topical which is either fake or doesnt do anythibg. Would def pop some e2 valerate or similiiar if available
I also have low e2 symptoms on injections. On gel i felt better but its too much of a hassle.
I alao used aromasin in the past.
Asking online.about this is a pain in the a** as no one takes one seriously , constantly asking about bloods (bloods dont mean anything about receptor site...
Hello,
has anyone ever used Pregnenolone with a too high dose and had side effects which could stem from high progesterone? If yes, and you stopped using it, how long till you felt better?
Is there a way to lower Progesterone,. as I believe it either lowers my e2 or blocks it from binding to...
I always feel like pregnenolone lowers my e2 (i already have low e2 symptoms for whatever reason) even more, or it raises progesterone which antagonizes e2 receptors.
I like its benzo'esque calming effect via progesterone/allopregnanolone but cant seem to find a dose that works.
I use DHEA...
I would use the half of a normal shoulder dose and look from there. Since your bloods will stabilize in days you can dial it in pretty fast.
there are two studies about transscrotal application:
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/andr.12357...
I mean I agree that i need to be more patient with more blood work to back it all up, but how does changing protocols reset the whole cycle of dialing in`?
So drinking Milk containing estradiol will also reset full 8 weeks of trt? i dont think so
I just dont understand how me changing doses too early on injections, like after 6-8 weeks, would somehow make my estradiol disappear leaving me with low e2 symptoms.
Also worth noting is that me being at 650 ng/dl Total T on Gel, 5 hours after application (which is declining even further every hour. after 8 hours T is back to baseline) felt 1000 times better than me being at 630 ng/dl Total T on injections.Doesnt matter if I was on it for just 6 weeks, its...
i agree that not every problem is related to T/TRT and trt is also not the answer to all problems.
But i know its the answer to my current problems cause I have proven myself via application of gel that 90% of all my problems are cured by applying T gel and its conversion to E2.
It doesnt make...
I can understand that I am impatient, but how does it pharmacologically make any sense that injections will take 5 months to have my body adjust to it while Gel works in 3 days?
the timeframe of 6-8 weeks has only to do with the long ester and its half life, reaching stable levels.
I could...
So I have a lot of trouble dialing in my TRT. Started gel with low T of 260 ng/dl and <5 E2 (non sensitive) , undetectable. SHBG of 23. Felt like HELL.
started androgel, felt the best i have ever felt in life after 4 days, this lasted for 1.5 weeks then I lost all my benefits and slowly became...
