How is everyone on cream doing? I’ve always been on test cyp (100mg per week ish at various frequencies). My levels are in higher end of the normal range and i’ve never felt super great. I gained 15 lbs of so of water weight right when i started which has contributed to sleep apnea. Anyone have...
I’ve read a few of your posts about TRT & weight gain and also TRT protocol change and feeling euphoric etc. It seems that we have very similar symptoms and experiences
Hey there,
Wondering if anyone knows of any alternatives to Defy for TRT clinics? My rx from Defy never made it to me and they are unfortunately refusing to send me more. 90 days with no TRT sounds like a terrible idea to me so I am looking for alternatives. Any suggestions would be greatly...
Protocol has changed
Now doing 40mg test EOD
No AI
The significant issues I was having with anxiety seem to be gone. Only about 4 weeks into the change though so i’ll give it more time.
Bloodwork soon

I just finished reading your two threads to get back up to speed with your case. Wrench could you comment and post your full protocol that you are on right now.
Re: my iron and thyroid protocol to Gman. I’d love for you to check out my thread here:
New Member is Canada w/ pre-TRT bloodwork
Just so we don’t hijack this one. My apologies for it not being as up to date as it should be. I got follow up bloodwork drawn today so should have those results...
I will re-read the thread when i have time. Just thought i would add something in the meantime
Personally I cannot overstate how much getting my iron/thyroid and testosterone at (near) optimal levels helped my mental health. It’s still an ongoing process but man is the change ever...
I’m only 6 months into TRT myself so take it for what it’s worth but I started 0.125mg anastrozole w/ my injections twice per week as directed. Worked out great for me (actually likely that i’ll need a bit more soon here) but I understand the desire to wait. Word is bring up a low or “crashed”...
Good luck with everything. I know what it feels like to be denied the care you deserve and I also know what it feels like to finally find someone who can help. Your life is about to change for the better.
Update:
Moved to 76mg 2x week to try to up FT
Added: 25mg pregnenolone per day
Feeling better than ever before. Especially in the few weeks after making the changes. Since then i’ve felt high e2 symptoms creep up including a gain of 8 pounds of what I assume in water weight (considering my...
