trt adjustments

Hi, anyone started TRT and did not receive the mental/sexual benefits until finding out there may be a thyroid problem? I started TRT a few months ago and while I felt a little better, I am not feeling my best. I still lack libido, have fatigue and want to sleep a lot. I'm starting to think I...

Hey folks, I’ve been on 100mg/wk Test-Cyp TRT for 6 weeks now. No side effects thus far, other than one mild case of acne breakout and skin greasiness (probably more to do with it being time to wash pillowcases and sheets). Today I’ve got an appointment with my TRT doctor to check in, get...

Hi everyone, first post but have greatly appreciated everyone’s comments on the forum that I have been reading through. I am having some frustration getting my protocol dialed in. Started TRT 1.5 years ago and have been using Testosterone Cypionate and all injections SubQ. Blood work and dosage...

Hello everyone, I am a 32 year-old man. I have suffered from hypopituitarism since birth. At the age of 5 I started taking GH and Hydrocortisone. The pediatrician monitored my bone development until I was 17 years old, when she decided that I should stop the GH replacement therapy and start...

Hi everyone, was wondering how to find the best dose for TRT. I started off with a T of 340, free t of 113 and E2 of 20, having low t symptoms. 8 weeks into TRT my test levels were at 1490, E2 33 and Free T 470 (47ng/dl), SHBG 8. This is on a 200mg Test cyp, ed injections (14 units) and HCG...

Hey guys, first time posting here, but I've been a lurker for quite some time. 48 yo 5'10" 195# Daily weight and resistance training Here's my protocol: 160mg TestCyp, injected twice weekly 0.4mg per dose. 1000 IU's of HCG , injected twice weekly at 500IU's per dose. Kids aren't really the...

Hey TRT fellows, I’m still struggling to get the best out of my trt journey and have a question that I can’t seem to find a definitive answer for: Is a SHBG of 24.2 nmol/L considered low ? And Would u go with an ED or EOD protocol with a SHBG level similar to mine ? Thank you

Hi guys. I'm in my late 30s in general good health and in shape. Used anabolics off and on for years in my late 20s. After coming off, TT was 300ng/dl for years and my last free test was mid single digits pg/ml. I decided to try TRT to see if I could live better. My sleep has always been...

Edited because I wrote like 10 paragraphs. Simple question. I feel better on higher levels, but have gyno issues and a little lethargy when e2 gets too high. Have a hard time with arimidex, I feel I "crash" easily. HCG makes me feel significantly better, but gives me obviously higher e2 and...

Any thoughts on this? I’ve been reading that it is better to lower estrogen than anastrozole on trt...

Hello. I am 28 years old, I'm a bodybuilder and currently doing TRT + hcg (to preserve testicular size and functions). I am taking 60mg sustanon every day, that would be a total of 420mg a week. I take hcg monday, wendnesday, friday, 500ui, for a total of 1500 ui a week. I also take exemestane...

Morning guys! I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas! March 2020 will be my four year milestone on TRT. I've tried various clinics (now with Defy), different protocols, gels, injections, HCG, supplements, etc. My T levels remained steady in the upper 800s. In short, I feel no different than I...

I did a bloodtest. Got back the result this morning. E2 46pg/ml SHBG 61,4 nmol/l Albumin 43 g/l T >30.00 ng/ml I inject 20mg/d subq. If I calculate the free T with only 30 I get 0,36 ng/dl. I wait for the messurement of the free T and there is something called free androgen index. About two...

I have been using Pubmed to compile a list of articles in the hopes of outlining the 2015 hype that prompted the FDA announcement about TRT. I have a meeting with my Doctor tomorrow and want to provide him a comprehensive list of current technical articles that show that TRT has significant...

Hi. I thought it would be a good ting to share my first months of trt using Nebido. Not so much information regarding such long ester on this forum and I think this could be of interest for someone out there.. W1: 4ml W3: 4ml W6: 4ml W11...

Hi All - 38M Excited to have my bloodwork back after 7 weeks on TRT (120mg test cyp 1x/week). Overall I feel great, much better than prior to TRT, but still want to refine my protocol. My bloodwork results are below, and labs were taken 8 days after last injection. I have a couple of questions...

Ok...hear me out. There seems to be a fair amount of guys on here that just do not feel good on full time TRT treatment. But like myself, get that “honeymoon/sweet spot” after a few weeks of starting TRT and for myself I get that same feeling when I stopped about 3-4 weeks after my last...
