dht

Hello all: Just received back my updated labs and wanted to get some thoughts. Last labs were on 1/29/20 after 6 weeks of my first protocol (I know, I jumped the gun a bit): T cyp 200 mg/ml - 0.32md IM/SQ twice a week (3.5 days) HCG 6,000 IU - 40 units SQ twice a week (3.5 days) Total...

I’m looking at DHT heptanoate injectable or a DHT cream and combining with HCG to preserve fertility. Is this a workable combo? I have high SHBG and would like to preserve fertility.

PARTICIPATION NEEDED! Of those EM members that have taken nandrolone or are currently taking nandrolone alongside their TRT, we are conducting a small ExcelMale study to help determine the effect that nandrolone has on Total Testosterone, E2, Prolactin, SHBG, free T, and DHT while taking TRT...

I’ve been reading more about DHT and how it can potentially help reduce estrogen. Got me thinking. Would something like regular testosterone injections + a DHT cream not be a good combo? Throw out all of the potential negatives like prostate or hair loss for this discussion.

Is there any kind of relationship with injection frequency and DHT levels? For example, I have found that spreading out injections lowers my HCT levels. Others find that it lowers E2. I'm having a hard time imagining that injection frequency could affect DHT levels and would think that it would...

Shout out to the great Dr Jordan Grant for originally posting this:

I've spent quite a bit of time in this forum trying to convince people DHT is not the cause of hair loss and that hair loss is a multi-factors problem. All the explanations to that have been written down in this long article that I encourage you to read before posting about TRT causing your...

I often see posts from members referencing DHT:E2 and other ratios but I cannot find any specific information on what the optimal ratios are. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Anyone have any experience using this? Would love to hear it’s effectiveness and any side effects.

I know dht boosts libido so I'm curious to see what your numbers are, I'm expecting a wide range since we are all so different. Mine is usually in the low 60s ng/dl with injections but libido is almost non-existent.

Hello ! I'm 33 years old. I've chronic fatigue, depression and no libido (and no morning erections. Erections are good if I get horny.) all of my life. I often feel nervous too much and experience anxiety (including social. I'm an introvert). I have apathy which progresses with time. Also I...

Since arimidex blocks the conversion of T to E2, would that mean that it drives dht higher since that's the other hormone T coverts to? If not, where does the t go? Does it get expelled or converted into something else? Also, it seems like high prolactin reduces dht by 58 percent in a study I...

A little background. I had a hardcore raging libido when I was younger, up to my early 20s. Quickly my erectile function deteriorated, followed by libido a few months later. I went for a blood test and my T was 300. I wanted TRT but my doc wouldn't prescribe it. So I turned to a friend at the...

Yes, this study is in monkeys. However, the different response to T and DHT is interesting. Perhaps, this is why scrotal T cream calms some people down. Dihydrotestosterone differentially modulates the cortisol response of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in male and female rhesus...

Got my DHT finally tested and it doesn't seem to correlate with the other hormone values. I mean it's normal range high, but the other results are way higher. What could be causing this? I hear dht should be 10% of total testosterone. Trough numbers: TT - 926 FT - 23.2 E2 - 72.5 DHEA - 247 DHT...

Can someone explain to me why no one in the US makes or supplies a DHT (dihydrotestosterone) gel or cream? If you have high testosterone and low DHT, the most obvious therapy for that is DHT gel. In Europe they give you synthetic analogs of DHT. In the US, there does not appear to be any...

I have been on the scrotal cream for the last few months. My dose for the last month before the test was 3 clicks (150 mg) once in the morning. I wanted to check how fast the cream leaves the system and my levels at the trough. What i see 24 hours after application of 3 clicks: Total T: 600...

Injected TRT earns high marks for safety, effectiveness Says injections are safer than a patch.. why??? This article may surprise you... Hint, its about dht.

Hey Everyone, Don't laugh I'm seriously asking! (I use 1/2" 30g insulin syringes, which don't hurt at all btw......) If Test cream on the sack seems to work a miracle for so many guys' libidos and erection quality then would injecting into the scrotum do the same? Apparently the increase in...

Adding supplemental scrotal T cream seems to be the trend lately, and personally I've definitely seen some benefit. Based on information from some doctors and other board members it seems the DHT:E2 ratio is improved, which gives a better sense of well being and libido. However, couldn't the...

My trt doc gave me back my lab results for dht and they were high. The range at quest goes to 79 and mine came back 82. She told me to take saw palmetto every other day to lower dht levels. She also said I could run into prostate issues with it being high. My psa is normal at .9 and that's...

I would like to use this thread to post some interesting researches and studies that completely debunked the DHT myth about hair loss. This would be the first well documented video to start from: Bullet points: - Hypothyroidism is one of the main culprit, signaling the testis to produce less...

Hi all I’m only 7 weeks into TRT with Defy. All good so far. First follow up in about 2 weeks with labs. Question for the group - I opted to keep things simple and start with just T Cyp @ 80mg twice per week (I have high SHBG). Again, things are going well and couldn’t care less about testicular...

I have many of the same issues that I see here everyday, not great energy, low libido but its better than before trt. I've been on injectables for 2 years. My current weekly protocol is 100mg T, split SubQ twice per week and 500 iu HCG twice a week. I just got my labs back and have a consult...

Has anyone on here had success using proviron or any type of DHT analogue to lower SHBG without completely commiting to full blown TRT? I’ve heard success stories of some guys lowering SHBG using proviron without it shutting down their HPTA.

Hello everyone! I just want to say that I am not on trt, or ever took some kind of steroid or drug or something like that. After starting natural bodybuilding in my teens, I felt great at 18-21 years old, I had an easy time putting on muscle and getting pumps, libido was sky high, agression and...

First of all , all help is appreciated, if you have some idea or input that might help then please share it. I have been dealing with the Side Effects caused by Arimidex for 5 years now. In 2014 ( i was 21 years old) i used Arimidex due to little bit High estrogen few months post cycle ( tbol...

For those with a rising PSA level and concerns about prostate health, I thought I would give my results from taking this supplement. I am reasonably certain my elevated PSA levels reflected a growth in my prostate and not prostatitis, as I had before and after DRE exams and the estimated size...

Hello everyone, I'm new here on the forum, I've had a look and I think it's a really professional and well run forum. I would run a DHT cycle of 12 weeks. I would use a transdermal gel of DHT (like a stronger version of Andractim). The dose would be 20mg of DHT per day. I have already run a...

Gentlemen, I thought that this was interesting Currently, there is no consensus regarding the expected concentration levels of intra-prostatic sex steroids in patients with Prostate Cancer (PCa). Our objective was to assess the concentration levels of sex steroids in prostatic tissue and...

Any of you have a concrete answer as to how dht blocks estrogen? Also how blocking dht raises estrogen?
