Registered Newbie

[AyePopi]

Hello Everyone. After visiting the site for several years I decided to register, and hopefully become more involved so here's my brief. I'll be 55 next month, workout daily, and eat clean during the week, but cheat a couple of meals on weekends. I usually run a 150mg of Test E during the summer months for 16 wks. to give me some extra energy, and wood. Approx. 3 months after my PCT my lab results are as follows:

Sorry guys, looks like I botched my first post

Hi AvePopi, welcome. You can post documents after a few posts. The management wants to make sure you are not a bot.

So you used to do a low lvl cycle but now what are your plans?

Welcome, I'm happy that you registered and looking forward to reading more of your postings.

I just had complete labs, and my Total T was 712 which is still good so I've got no plans on starting TRT until a little further out into the future. One of the main reasons I Registered was to become more active, and educate myself further on various protocols/types of testosterone. An acquaintance of mine recently changed his practice to become a BioTE® practitioner, and has been selling me on the benefits of BioTE® so I figured I'd go straight to the source in order to get the skinny.

Pellets hugh? You are not going to find a lot of love here for them.
You will be able to get a nice list of questions you can put before your friend and see how he responds.
I would also look into Defy Medical's pricing and see how it compares to the pellet mills.

Man if I had a TT of 700 I sure would not be sticking my belly every other day.

I kinda gathered that from what I've read so far, and thank you for recommendation. I'm extremely pleased with my numbers, but have got 2 younger son's who are extremely active, and in the summer I need a little help keeping up with them. Sticking yourself gets old real quick, and that's what had me even entertaining the pellet.

You do understand when you take the T injections you are shutting down your natural production and not adding to it?
Having you considered HCG shots to get your boys producing more?
I would be very worried if I shut my natural system down one time too many it might not start back up again.

To know if you have shut your natural T production down just look at these to values in your blood work.

Yes, and I've been lucky to kick start them with a PCT of Nolvadex (40/40/20/20) Clomid (100/100/50/50) fourteen days after my last injection, but also understand that one day that protocol may not work. I haven't even considered HCG, but that's an avenue I'm going to explore. I've even thought about Clomid, but have been reading +/-'s here. Thx for the FSH & LH pic. I knew everything was good, but wasn't sure exactly what each one represented. Looks like my guys are up and running FSH is 6.5 with a range of 1.6-8.0, and LH is 7.4 with a range of 1.5-9.3
