Pellets were state of the art for TRT like 20 years ago, but they have lots of issues. I don't think anybody on this forum uses them or has had positive experiences with them.
Hey Nick23. I tried the pellets, gels etc. I can tell you exactly what happens on pellets. Simple procedure, good results for the first 30 days, (although a spike to E2 and hematocrit) then levels decline drastically (300+ points for me) each month there after. I peaked (total T) at 1475 five months ago, and now Im down to under 300. Bottom line, not worth the roller coaster ride. I'm now going with Defy, just waiting for my consultation and planning on injecting 2x per week plus HCG.
i had them a few years back. they were great right away(minus the sore ass from where they injected them). after 5-6 weeks the Dr put more pellets in. a month later i was in a world of hurt. felt like garbage. developed sleep apnea type issues. shortly thereafter I couldnt sleep for 2-3 days at a time. I finally got back to normal months later after they wore off and my body was rid of it

Understanding Your Hormones
Estradiol (E2)
A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido.
Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.
DHT
Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth,
prostate health, and masculinization effects.
Free Testosterone
The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins.
Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
