So I have not had any cypionate since Feb 20th (40mg last shot) and then I did 2 weeks of 250iu of Hcg daily. Man, I felt the best I had in years on the HcG. It was crazy! I was REALLY impressed by my mood, energy, libido, and erections on the HcG. Better than I ever felt on TRT. I've also been...

After having my first consult with Dr. Saya we've decided to try a restart protocol b/c of my age (35) and the fact that it seemed as if I were secondary to begin with (low FSH and LH before TRT). I've also been on TRT a relatively short time 7-8 months. I know it might not work, but it's worth...

Very excited to finally speak to a doctor that not only knows about TRT, but is an expert! I'll let you know when how it goes...consult in on Feb 16th with Dr. Saya. I hope I can either gain consistency or maybe explore their restart protocol since I am only 35... Thanks for pointing me in the...

I just got an estrogen blood test back from my primary. He ran it through quest and it came back at 112 pg/ml, which seems crazy high... But the reference range is 60-190 pg/ml When I looked at the quest website it indicated this is the range for adult male. Does this make any sense?

Hi all, So i have had (as many here have) ups and downs and a bit of a roller coaster ride on my 7+ month TRT journey. Current protocol is 40MG cypionate MWF and very small doses (1/8mg) of arimidex as needed by symptoms. When my lows are there, my libido and erectile function arr really...

Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this as well or what the actual hormonal reason (if any) might be the cause. I've had some real ups and downs on my 7+ months of TRT, with more ups than downs recently, but still not perfect. I have found that on the stretches when I feel my best I...

Hi Guys, I've posted a few times and am feeling much better than when I first reached out in desperation. My current protocol is 40MG cypionate MWF and 1/8mg adex when symptoms present themselves. I've been so much better on this protocol and rarely use the arimidex, but when I do sometimes...

HI All, I was posting here back at the end of the summer when I was really having a hard time with my TRT. I thought I had high e2 and a non-sensitive test had shown I was high (not sure if that is totally accurate). Since then, I have been injecting 40mg on Mon, Wed, Fri (down from 80 mg...

So here are the retest results of the original tests I posted yesterday (1st results embedded in link: https://www.excelmale.com/forum/showthread.php?5129-New-Labs-Help-Understanding-%28Low-Ferritin-High-IGF-1-High-Somatomedin%29) So it looks like my Somatomedin is still high, ferritin still...

So I have been having a hard time getting dialed in. Thought I had high E2 based on a non-sensitive test (42). Reduced recently from 160mg cyp divided 2x week to 120 divided 3 x week. Have been taking .25 mg arimidex on injection days and DIM on off days. Some symptoms had improved (slightly...

So I need a little help with some lab numbers I just got back today. First off, my primary pulled the following labs from a blood draw on Aug 6 when I went in complaining of high e2 symptoms: e2 42 on a range of <40 HIGH total t = 693 range 160-853 free t = 18.2 range 3.5-15.5 HIGH shbg = 20.7...

So I've been going through some really bad high e2 symptoms over the last week and a half. My blood work, which I posted in other threads last week had my e2. My blood work, which is posted below is from last week: e2 42 on a range of <40 HIGH total t = 693 range 160-853 free t = 18.2 range...

I've read a few places that progesterone can combat e2. Does anyone have any experience with this?

So if you've been reading the last few days I've been going through what I think is high e2 really bad. Today I am actually starting to feel the tiniest bit better. I did not have to take any xanax today and I slept most of last night (but had some rx help...but even rx wasn't working the last...
