My Lp(a) is single digits which is about as low as it gets so this is not from that.

I did a far share of dirty bulking on aromatizing compounds. Mainly Dbol, Test, Deca, EQ. My blood pressure was probably elevated then. I did diet down multiple times and was quite fit then but didn't use any other compounds for that. No arimidex. Nobody was really controlling E2 heavily...

Do you have a history of AAS use or long term high TRT use?

Well I have been taking 2.5 - 5mg per day for 5 years so that's helpful to know.

Agreed. If it was as simple as just reading a book every would be solved and it isn't. Modern cutting edge steroid abusers are now crushing their LDLs and ApoB to sub 50 with low dose crestor and Zetia. Perhaps they are correct that it enables them to abuse much more safely. Nobody can...

I simply don't understand how LDL can be a very minor cause when the entire goal of mainstream cardiology is to lower LDL when evidence of ASCVD is present. I don't believe everything is some sort of conspiracy theory.

My LDL has been relatively high for years creeping from 130-160 over the past 10 years. My natural HDL is 70-80 and when on TRT it's in the 50-60 level. My LDL basically stays flat on TRT or not. My triglycerides are always always always super low at 50 level. My ApoB recently came back at...

I have been on TRT for years with a break to make a baby. I can guess my numbers based on the dose and they have been really consistent. My standard dose has been 80mg cyp E3.5D w/250ish HCG (this part has varied) and sometimes .125-.25mg adex. I resumed TRT end of summer on (80mg + 300iu...

Something bizarre happened. I ended this cycle 9 weeks ago and resumed my TRT regimen of 70mg E3.5d + HCG 500iu and I saw my urologist and my total T is 1500+ and E2 is 52. How is this possible after 9 weeks on 140mg? I had my last shot of 200mg test + 125mg primo 10 weeks ago! I should be...

I have never in my life seen a variation this large. Nelson is right. There is a problem with your bloodwork IMO. The test is wrong or the bloods were switched.

Naturally.

Can you dumb this down for me a little bit? Are you implying that my LDL actually isn't that bad bc my HDL and triglycerides we're so good on my natty bloods?

I found my natural bloodwork from earlier this year. I was taking off TRT to make a baby... I had been off of everything for 6 months here and eating normally while weighing 30 pounds less. My total cholesterol was similar at 223 My LDL was 36 points lower and still not great at 133 My HDL was...

I feel great consistently. As good as I have ever felt on TRT. Just bigger and stronger. I have had bad periods on TRT too mostly revolving around nandrolone. Straight test I feel good as well as long as I'm 160 or a bit lower area. I'm guessing here but I bet if I dropped down to 200 test +...

Results came in really quick. Some things were quite unexpected. My hematocrit is DOWN 3 points (46) from 2021 TRT bloodwork. So I have lower hematocrit on 400/500 test + 250 primo than I do on 160 test. I really think I know why. It's the E2. My E2 is lower using primo mid 20s than it is...
