Say you took out 1000ml of blood. How would that affect your testosterone levels if you're a) natural b) on TRT? Testosterone is circulating in the blood so if you took out 2 pints wouldn't that cause a noticeable decrease in testosterone?

So as some of you know, T injections never worked for me, but the T scrotum did miracles, but dht was too high and i was losing lots of hair so I had no choice but to try half injection half cream and guess what, NOTHING! It almost seems like my body doesn't like the INJECTION. at this point I...

I’m having trouble understanding something. I’ve read on here that it takes weeks to really see a difference when adjusting dose and also that it takes some length of time for testosterone deficiency induced depression to lift. But, when talking about injections every 2 weeks, apparently it’s...

I am searching last weeks about it because I read on some place that testosterone decrease collagen synthesis but I don't know if it's true or not. This means we can end up with flacid/older skin? Does someone have interest on anti-aging subject? Or there are someone old here on trt or even...

Hey all, just a couple of quick questions, Can your body produce defective testosterone? Can your body fail to metabolize natural total T - free T? I'm talking about cases of low T symptoms but normal T levels. Thank you!

Say you injected Test Prop for the first time. 1) How long after the first injection will the body stop producing it's own T? 2) How long after the first injection will the body be fully cleared of it's own endogenous T?

A news article discusses a new study finding a link between idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and testosterone levels. The original study is also online: "The protective tips of chromosomes, called telomeres, are shorter in men with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) than age-matched peers, and...

This study finds little correlation between the two: "We evaluated the association of circulating levels of total and free testosterone, and of sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), with the risk of cancers of the pancreas, kidney, and brain, and of total and free estradiol with the risk of...

Has anyone here felt better, mainly libido and sexual function, by lowering their test dose so that they're mid range instead of upper end, and adding hcg? If so can you share your experience and numbers/doses?

I decided to run a comparison between empowers compounded cypionate vs pfizers cypionate. I ran each for 12 weeks at 70mg e3.5d with no other ancillaries and the same exact supplement regimen. Pfizer: 1268 ng/dl Empower: 979 ng/dl Sensitive estradiol was higher on the Pfizer as well. Pfizer...
