You’re doing the same. DHT and all is an old story anyway. BTW if I speak with ignorance according to you, your rudeness exceeds it. I guess TRT hasn’t calmed your nerves.

I get your point. It’s just a quicker way to lose your hair. Injecting will do the same but more slowly? Or not at all? I’ve heard and read it does speed up alopecia anyway.

Lol. I’m looking forward to that libido and Superman feeling indeed. I’ve heard a lot about the creams doing the best job so far. According to Jim Campbell, it’s now the way to go. Every day twice a day. Jim however, takes Cialis Daily too and only applies the scrotal cream once a day. Good bye...

I’m sure there are differences DHT wise among all sorts of T administration but if you’re prone per studies you will lose your hair. You just don’t see it. It’s not like you’re molting. It’s not obvious like that till you notice thinning and changes that are irreversible . If you’re not prone to...

Thank you for the thorough answer to my question. It’s very clear to me now how the whole thing works. You certainly have 27 years of experience and knowledge including being yourself the subject of experimentation. My journey has recently began and I’m hoping that whatever happens I don’t get...

I have a question concerning HCG and you seem well versed in matters related to this hormone. If you come off TRT and inject HCG to reverse testicular atrophy, once the atrophy is resolved and you stop HCG, will the atrophy come back? Can HCG cause any testicular atrophy as well?

I’m on a three month trip and I ran out of cypionate. I wasn’t able to get a three month supply.

Sure, let’s see what happens. These are issues for all men on TRT indeed. That’s a given.

You’re correct. I had to stop TRT because I’m traveling for three months. My supply of testosterone cypionate didn’t last too long into my trip so I had to stop. The pharmacists in Massachusetts won’t give people more than a month supply regardless what the script says. I’m back in Boston by the...

Doctors.... after a three month on TRT I had to stop it. At that point I was already experiencing atrophy that showed as a dull pain in the testicles and reduction in size. They were cold and shriveled most of the time. That was like 7 weeks ago. To this date I don’t know if they went back to...

I discussed T gels and creams with my urologist who was referred by my PCP. My urologist discussed injections as the most inexpensive option and he prescribed me Testosterone Cypionate. If your PCP doesn’t feel comfortable prescribing injections get a referral to see a urologist. Besides, you...

I suffered from anxiety before TRT for which I take Klonopin. When I was put on TRT my doctor did not take away my anti anxiety medication. I haven’t had any problems with anxiety while on TRT. Do you think your anxiety isn’t TRT related? Speaking for myself as a chronic anxiety suffering...

I see you have a good sense of humor which is a good sign!

You have probably googled endlessly in search of an answer so far. I’m afraid you might find the answer only with a doctor who might want to know why after a year your testicles remain atrophied for which he will have to run tests and all. I suggest you do to get to the bottom of your issue. I...

As I understand HCG, it does reverse testicular atrophy and it can be discontinued without affecting the reversal of atrophy as long as the patient is not on TRT. T Nation has a good article on HCG. Tip: A Quick Guide to HCG | T Nation

I used to get my 4 1ml/200mg for about 25$-30$ per month at CVS and once, accidentally the pharmacist put my prescription through my insurance. Surprisingly, my insurance covered it and my copay was $10 for the same amount of vials. I had assumed it wasn’t covered. Anyway, 25$ it’s pretty decent

You can use a GoodRx coupon and buy cypionate if that’s what you’re injecting for TRT at a very discounted price. You’d need a script from your doctor. It’s an excellent source to get various medications at a lower price and Testosterone Cypionate is included among their meds. They’re generic...

Thank you for the clarification. At some point, visually at least, they look the same. Or I probably haven’t seen anybody with Gynecomastia.

Is there any difference between Gynecomastia and adipose tissue? Also, older man who aren’t on TRT commonly develope “breasts” due to gravity I thought. All things go south.

My doctor isn’t against prescribing higher doses but he mentioned to me some regulations against going beyond 200mg/week. Indeed pharmacist seem to take the “laws” upon themselves and give patients and doctors a hard time. I don’t need 300mg so far but even 225mg to get more cypionate viales was...

How do you manage to have your Dr prescribe 300mg cypionate a week?

I guess I confuse testicular atrophy and fullness of the scrotum. Isn’t the amount of sperm reduced as well?

Do you take HCG ? I can’t remember if you commented on this before.

It’s a hard call... I don’t know if HCG affects erections but I certainly will use it as testicular atrophy is definitely a HUGE thing for me. I’m off TRT for a while (ran out of cypionate during travel) and my testicles have become fuller and normal again. I know when I restart TRT I will go...

I hear you. I meant a urologist instead of an endo because my experience has been very positive with a urologist who works in a clinic with a female and a male doctor. They treat infertility which makes them very knowledgeable. My insurance covers everything as well. I definitely wouldn’t want...

I go to a urologist. He understands TRT very well. Maybe that’s something you can try.

Likewise. I travel abroad and in the USA the pharmacies refused to give me more than a one month supply and I’m now “off” TRT not by choice. I didn’t worry because in the end that would have made matters worse mentally for me. I was upset about the refusal to fill out a 10ml/200mg Cypionate vial...

What were your T levels on trt and now after having stopped it? Did you have testicular atrophy? If so, did your testis go back to previous TRT protocol?

It’s quite interesting because I do see a correlation between losing body fat and HCG. I understand the HCG diet restricts caloric intake to 500 calories a day. That’s what I find tricky... the plans that have popped up when I’m searching for HCG (no diet related) have two plans usually: 26 or...

750iu vs 1000iu same effect. Interesting. Did they have normal pre TRT size?
