Thank you. I'm getting older now (47) and after having some other orthopedic issues, realized about 10 years ago that you are always your best advocate. No one else cares about your issues more than you. Tools like ChatGPT make research of these topics easier than ever. Your comment on PSA...

I was on TRT for about 10 years. About 2 years ago, I had a kidney stone that kicked off a long chain of events for me. I passed the 6 mm long x 2.5 mm wide stone after 3 weeks. About a month later, I kept having burning, hesitancy, yellow / chunky semen and urgency. The doctor gave me an...

Hi, sorry I missed this. i did it for 4 weeks. I had a 20 mg bottle, added 2.5 ml of bac water to it. That gives 8 mg / ml. I injected 0.25 ml every M-W-F for 4 weeks. Additionally, I have had amazing success so far with my latest round of antibiotics. I will post about that in another...

I used Prostamax and Vesilute for 6 weeks. Saw big improvements.

I tried a cycle, and saw major improvements in BPH and chronic prostatitis.

Did you ever try it? I am interested

I'll try to make this brief. 46 y/o I was on HCG + minor anastrozole therapy for 10 years. Never an issue. It started to grow ineffective. I started T Cyp slowly alongside HCG + anastrozole. Did this for about 4 months. Never felt quite right. I was having other issues related to a kidney...

I could not get my iron to increase through any protocols. I ended up changing my PPI medicine, taking less of it as well, and stopping TRT for now. My Ferritin is up around 100 after a few months. Once I get it to around 150, I am going to start TRT again and monitor my iron and ferritin...

This is exactly what I am seeing. My T crashed to 10 while injecting. I stopped T and started enclomiphene and my Ferritin is up to mid 50's after 2 months. I feel better with my Ferritin coming up, but will be stopping the enclomiphene shortly and can imagine that I am going to feel much...

With my Ferritin rising rapidly after stopping T injections, is there anything else I could do to raise T without taking T directly? A peptide? Anything else?

I wish that was my problem.

Interesting. I only look at Free T. My SHBG is super low so even at a current Total T of 250, Free T is 75-85 typically. If my Total T gets up to 900 for example, my Free T is usually over 300 which causes all sorts of issues. At 140 mg of T Cyp my Free T was about 600 with Free T at 200-225.

I'm at the same point. With the low Ferritin, I felt significantly worse than with low T. I've been on enclomiphene for 2 months, and am worried what things will be like when I come off of it. My Free T is about 75 on enclomiphene. It was 150 on 140 mg of T Cyp. If I go off, I'm afraid it...

I stopped that day. It’s been two months. I’ve been on enclomiphene. Free T has been halved from when I was doing 140 mg of T. However my Ferritin has gone from 10 to 53 with no change in diet. I feel much better. Still debating my next move.

Got it. Thanks. I hear you. I'm stopping for now. See where I am and how I feel when I get back to baseline. I feel worse now than I did before, so I need to get it sorted out. Then, will start to step back in slowly. That could blow up on me, but I feel like I need to start with a...
