[QUOTE="stx358, post: 101845, member: 16729"] My doctor didn't know anything about HCG. I asked him to prescribe it based upon what I learned on here. 150 IU a day is Dr. Crisler's protocol. I felt horrible before HCG. Correct I did not take an AI. I am with Nelson on this one. There is very little data to support the use of an AI and even less that indicates a "standard" estradiol level for men. That is a moving target. Most of the info on AI's is anecdotal or bro science and there seems to be a huge incidence of guys crashing their E on here. E is not a "female" hormone. Its a human hormone. I think that "female" label scares guys needlessly. I think a sensitive E of 32 is reasonable. As for the surgery the thing is my balls hurt for 8 months after the surgery and I had the best surgeon in my area (Northern California). I think the recovery took that long. I finally feel great - that and the dramatic response to HCG makes me wonder is the surgery was successful. I have scoured the boards and I have read a few incidences of guys our age having relatively painless restarts. The thing is when guys have a successful one they don't post it and probably fall off the boards. I think a lot of guys are probably going through this - 15-20% of men have varicoceles whether they know it or not. That's why I am talking about it. I want to help other guys like us. I plan to post my experience on here and to remain on the board even if I am successful. I am very thankful for everything I learned on here. If I was left in the hands of my incompetent TRT doctor I would have been ruined without Excel Male. [/QUOTE]
