My doctor so stupid it takes her 2 Hours to watch 60 minutes. This is my 3rd year on test...

I'm sure I've done a hot dose at 1mg 4 times a week. I'm cutting it back to 1mg twice a week. Not any serious side effects but some things I can attest to.

Noticed the following with my 1mg every other day.

1. Libido went down considerably.
2. Seminal fluid dropped to hardly anything? Takes a long time to get the orgasm.
3. Might have developed a cough, I am using an allergy pill. It appears to be dry irritation, could be weather and it seems to be post nasal drip but it did start after dosing with LiquiDex.
4. Mood swings are totally gone. Used to have pre or post injection moodiness. I have also switched to twice weekly injections. Might be the split injections helping or the Liquidex.
5. Some weight loss seems to have occurred. Cannot be sure this is why but it seems to be from around the breast area... which is good.
6. Lastly, I gave blood yesterday, I had a heck of a bruise on my arm vein. I never have those. Could be related, could not. Just observations.


So some of the above points are directly related and other not.


As an addendum to all this I have upped my Testosterone from 100mg weekly to 200 mg weekly. I felt safe to do so with the AI in place where as before I was dealing with moderate levels, not that high,430- 740 and when the Estradiol got so high, I dared not think about increase until I had some way to get that under control.

Being that this is Jan 13th and I started LiqiuDex only on the 19th of last month, I've got some time to adjust.


Appreciate the experienced input as always. Thanks


My only comment is that you have introduced a number of simultaneous (or near simultaneous) changes - the use of an AI, more frequent dosing, increased testosterone. You are planning to test at the four to six week mark?
 
Certainly, I would like to provide my antidotal evidence as to before and after treatment and so forth.

I am going to reference this thread but I will post one new thread regardless. That is really a simply yes or now question.

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.
