[QUOTE="Fortunate, post: 234406, member: 42264"] There are a few threads on headaches, but I thought I’d start one dedicated for anyone who wants to solicit or provide advice and feedback on headaches. If you previously had or currently still experience headaches, please share your thoughts here. I am prone to headaches and have been my whole life. So, I suspect I am neurologically more sensitive to noxious stimuli than most. When TRT triggers a headache, I usually feel it within a few hours of injecting. I believe there are various different pathways by which TRT can cause headaches, so there is not likely a one-size fits all solution. Over time, I have suspected various offenders that may trigger headaches, but all I have are theories are anecdotal observations. I think some of the possible offenders that may trigger a headache include: [LIST] [*]Carrier oil [*]Preservatives in multi-use vials [*]Ester (doubt) [*]Peak T levels that are too high [*]E2 levels that are too high [*]T:E2 ratios [*]Blood pressure spikes [*]Prolactin (newest on my list) [/LIST] One pretty consistent observation I have made is that enanthate from a multi-use vial (thus with preservatives), even in small doses, is much more likely to trigger a headache than a large, single dose of Xyosted (without preservatives). I am more or less looking for anyone who has done some successful troubleshooting. I have never given any thought to prolactin, but did notice it was on the slightly high end of normal on my last set of labs. Should I be thinking about that? I also notice headaches on nandrolone, with less aromitization than testosterone, so it can’t all be E2. That said, the nandrolone is mixed with preservatives, which is still on my suspect list. Please share your experiences. [/QUOTE]
