I have been to the doctor's office of a very reputable university, with a very reputable doctor, one of the most cited in these forums, who's written lots of papers and which I consider very knowledgeable, but stopped going there because he will dedicate less than 5 min talking to me, he will...

Assuming your goal plan is 100 mg Testosterone Cypionate twice a week (50 mg every 3.5 days) you can use the following to achieve steady state within a week First week Monday: 50 mg Wednesday: 50 mg Friday: 30 mg Subsequent weeks Monday: 50 mg Thursday: 50 mg This will produce something like...

Thank you @madman. Very interesting and in line with what you, @Cataceous and others have been saying for years, also compatible with my own research and experience: the goals of TRT should be (for most people) TT levels between 600-900 ng/dL E2 levels < 35 pg/ml Two conclusions available at...

Makes perfect sense. Thanks for the detailed explanation.

Out of sheer curiousity. May I ask who told you that and which were the reasons given for not doing it after 8 years of (successful, I presume) use?

Glad to see a voice of reason in the endless wars of estradiol levels

any possible dosage/frequency up to 2000 IU per week. 250 EOD, 500 3/week, 750 3/week, 2000 /week

I have BPH. 1 month after starting TRT (TCyp. 100 mg/wk) my PSA jump from 2.6 to 3.14, 3 months later it was 4.05. Went to the Urologist and the NP told me "you have to stop TRT", I told her that TRT was not for fun, that it was a medication I took for a reason and the decision to stop it...

BTW, I've been on the same 100 mg (50+50 E3.5D) and have not had any of the symptoms I initially related

Interesting, I had a similar experience both in terms of T and E2.

I second this experience. I was doing 30x3 for 3 months and had no positive experiences other than increased anxiety. I switched to 2x50 and I have noticed at least some improvement in almost every area. Same experience with morning wood and nighttime erections.

What product are you using? Testosterone chpionate? 200 mg/ml?

I will be able to tell you more when I have my labs in a few weeks, since I switched from 3/Week IM to 2/Week SQ, but as a starting point, I would lower the dosage. By the way, what is your dosage? Based your description: " Injecting 3.5 twice a week intermuscular." I'm not able to tell. I'm...

I understand. I guess his logic would be that more frequent interventions with smaller dosages would create smaller peaks producing lower FT values. I'm not sure, I'll ask him next month when I see it, but that's the one who told me that there was no way HCG could maintain testicular size while...

Already on it. 5 mg a day for BPH I'll try that. I have a bottle of vitamin C in front of me right now, I don't think I've ever opened it ;-( I've tried CoQ10 in the past. Haven't noticed much though OH NOO!! If I continue to delay orgasm, it may take me a year.... C'mon man, don't scare...

I must say that I don't feel bad on this protocol, or have any concerns at this moment. It seems that my post has been misinterpreted as if I was looking for advice on making changes because of the symptoms I posted. I apologize for misleading the readers. The main reason of my post was a...

That will be my next step, just need to make sure how my body reacts to different schedules. I tried 3xweek, now 2xweek, my goal is to do it once a week, so I can minimize the number of injections. I don't mind doing it, but I worry about the next 25 years. Will I still like it? So once I...

I'm experiencing this as well, but my baseline is not much lower that that. It's only the systolic going from a baseline of 112-120 to 127-135, diastolic remains at 77-80 in most cases That's impressive. Do you attribute the drop in BP to: - change from sustanon to enanthate? - change frequency...

Actually, I do believe you.

Yep. 183 lbs for the last 6 months. I weigh myself in the morning and before taking a shower at night Using a 6 electrode body composition scale.

Not exactly like that. It's... complicated Nights seats: Started way before treatment. It came came and went on its own. I can't say that neither of them (HCG,EC, or T.Cyp) are responsible for fixing the problem, but, after starting with them I had not had them anymore until yesterday...

This is interesting @Systemlord. I trust your opinion when it comes to iron/ferritin as I have read your story and I know you struggled for a long time with misdiagnosis of this issue. I will have my doctor check my ferritin next time I see him (in a couple of months). Anything else I suggest...

It may very well be. However, I still have not seen anyone comment on the particular symptoms which were the reason I posted. Has anyone seen/experience this? Even though I'm bothered by them I'm not worried, just intrigued. Since we discussed all these things here I thought it might be...

I know, it'll take another 4 weeks... Reasons stated above: - shriveled flaccid penis - time to orgasm was slowly increasing - no morning wood - sensitive and erect nipples Understood Understood As per quest's results TESTOSTERONE, FREE (DIALYSIS) AND TOTAL,MS Understood Before starting...

I'm familiar with your story and I'm tempted to go and have my ferritin levels tested. All my CBC values are good MCV, MCH, MCHC, RDW and MPV. Hematocrits are at 49% and HGB at 16.9 Maybe next time I'll have it tested. Any particular test/panel you can recommend?

I left that out, but actually I did go back to 80 mg. There was not much improvement in any area and by the 4th day, I was feeling run down, that's the reason for the "experiment". On 50 there was a number of improvements, in many areas, but these cold feel/night sweats started abruptly. also...

Hello all, I was previously on 90 mg/week, divided in 3 weekly doses of 30 mg, M-W-F, IM on the deltoids. After 6 weeks on this protocol, the labs indicated: Total T: 1044 ng/dL Free T: 19.52 ng/dl Estradiol sensitive: 34 pg/mL SHBG: 36 nmol/L However, I had the following sides effects: -...

In my case it was the opposite, prior to TRT it took me a long time to finish, TRT has improved that. Don't believe everything you read! Seriously, it may work for some people. I have been on HCG monotherapy and combined therapy with Enclomiphene Citrate for a year and a half, and neither...

Yes I am still on Perrigo, and no I do not have the "sustained" pounding heart. I may get it on the day of the injection, if for whatever reason I changed the dosage, but I don't have it constantly as I was having earlier. The main change has been the switch back to subQ. On IM the anxiety, tho...

Regardless what most people say anecdotally (and I value anecdotes) most studies I've read say that estradiol levels in males are tightly controlled between 20-30 pg/ml. I know some people have 40, and 60 and +80 pg/ml and feel like 20 year olds, good for them, but it seems most 25-39 year olds...

The real answer is "I don't know". What I did that yield those results? I ate salads, less red meat, whatever meat I ate was grilled, less "vegetable oils", more olive oil, ate less, took Omega-3, ate the last dinner earlier (no later than 7 pm) and lots of treadmill... that's it. I lost more...
