    Low ferritin but high iron levels??

    Thank you. This is all pretty me to me. None of my previous Dr have tested my ferritin or iron levels before. Only my hemoglobin and hematocrit. Have you tried to up your ferritin levels to see how you feel? I feel like I'm just going in circles.

    Low ferritin but high iron levels??

    Got to love amazon. I was not supplementing preg but 2 hours ago I ordered a bottle and it just arrived. I am going to try the switch over to prop and give it a shot. I have a couple weeks left of cyp that I am going to finish off before I start. One question though. You suggest starting with...

    Low ferritin but high iron levels??

    Amen brother. I was shocked when I went in. Waited 3 months to see him and for him to tell me that. I got iritated and basically told him to fuck off. Just frustrating trying to find any TRT doctors with any knowledge but hey... thats why this forum is great. Luckily my endo is cool about most...

    Low ferritin but high iron levels??

    Thank you for the insights. Yeah I've basically just kept lowering my dose over the past 2 years to try and curb my anxiety and heart palps. I've never really had any serious anxiety until the past couple years. And the biggest problem is the head fog. Just can't seem to focus or concentrate on...

    Low ferritin but high iron levels??

    Yeah, I've mulled this over for a while now. Unfortunately, my endo is a hard no on prescribing me any AI. I recently found a new endo and he won't even see me unless I get off of TRT for 8 weeks so he can diagnose why I have hypogonadism in the first place.

    Low ferritin but high iron levels??

    I had done the 23andMe about 6 months ago so I just went in and paid to see if I had the C282Y genes. I am negative for both!! How do I check to see if I have iron overload or hemochromatosis?

    Low ferritin but high iron levels??

    My SHBG has always been low. Even when I was taking 200mg/wk. Always floats around the 20 mark. Thanks for the advice and I agree about not donating for at least a year. As for my other health. I am pretty healthy and don’t take a lot of supplements. I have some joint issues from sports so I...

    Low ferritin but high iron levels??

    I've been on TRT for 10 years now with many ups and downs. Over the past year I've been reducing my dose to as low as possible to curb anxiety, heart palpitations and libido/sexual dysfunction issues. Trying to get on the "less is better" train. I'm currently taking 77 mg weekly test cyp with...

    Hcg and headaches

    Possible that you are one of the few that don't tolerate HcG very well. It makes me feel like complete shit. Headaches, irritability, etc... Honestly nothing positive comes from it for me. I've tried it multiple times over the years at different doses to the same result. Good luck.

    HCG or . . .No HCG?

    Let me know how your low dose works out for you. I am dealing with the same issue. Everytime I start up again I get massive anxiety. I recently switched to 28 mg test EOD with no HCG but my penis sensitivity is mostly gone. I would love to find a low dose that would work but I'm scared to start...

    My HcG trials

    Thanks. I watched a documentary a while back where they interviewed some successful CEO’s who get up early and either take a really cold shower or jump into a pool that is around 50 degrees. Found it pretty interesting. I’ll check out the podcast. I just lowered my HcG to 250 IU 2x a week. I’ll...

    My HcG trials

    I would bet that a good part of those sides was due to the T dose which would result in very high FT levels let alone peak--->trough once-weekly injections. Most would never need such a dose to achieve a healthy, high let alone in some cases absurdly high FT. Ridiculous to start anyone off on...

    My HcG trials

    It could def be dopamine related. Other areas of enjoyment have faded. I’m not sad but I also don’t have the excitement for things like I used to. I have an amazing family and a great career so that helps. The HcG causes me to get irratated much quicker with things. Unfortunately due to my...

    My HcG trials

    Yes. I used to take Cialis a few times per week. It helped with erections but nothing with libido. I have no problem using it and will continue but I'm only 40 and don't really want to have to rely on it for the rest of my life. I'm willing to try different things to get some of my libido back...

    My HcG trials

    Thanks. I'm going to try this out but It's really difficult for me because of my job. I travel all over the world. Keeping HcG cold proves to be difficult. 250iu every day? That seems like a lot. How do you feel on those levels?
