I had the same issue with Perrigo a few years ago. If I recall correctly, I posted my experience here or somewhere else. The members were not believing me because they said there's no way a huge pharma company will under dose but I know my body. It turned out my labs proved my assumptions. I do...
My vitamin d levels are low for my taste. They are at 40 (consuming 11,000 iu's daily) they are usually between 70 to 80. I am currently taking 14,000 iu's daily with k2 mk7 120mcg and 5 mg k2 mk4. I will also be checking my vit d levels. Hopefully this fixes my low calcium problem.
I though...
How's it going everyone?
I have 2 concerns. I want to double check my knowledge. My first understanding is that vitamin b12 does not interfere with thyroid testing - only biotin does. Is this true or should all b vitamins be avoided to have accurate thyroid testing?
Secondly, I currently have...
My issue was blow drying it. Like the pharmacist told me it's best to let it air dry. I have noticed that I don't get the white film that I was getting when blow drying it. I am assuming it is now penetrating.
If I do decided to try the commercial brand I will definitely report back.
The members who said heat from the blow dryer might affect the penetration were correct. I decided to verify with Empower and one of the pharmacist who prepares this medication said that it's best to let it dry. She...
I hope my insurance covers it or least some it.
I decided to start with Hydrogel because it had great results. My doctor was on board with the change since I wanted to increase libido.
I have decided to let it air dry.
You also bring up a good point about starting with a high concentration and then going to a lower one.
About 10 years ago I was using Axiron on my armpits. With four pumps of it my total testosterone rose to 450. or so. I also use pregnenolone from empower...
I just finished reading into the ingredients and it's alcohol free. It uses a polymer network along with natural enhancers to allow testosterone to penetrate.
I also used their testosterone cream at 50 mg/ml per click with injections but my levels dropped. Then I decided to try hydrogel since it has a better absorption but apparently blow drying it could be the issue.
Maybe that's the issue. I never thought that at a medium level of heat it could stop absorption. I will stop blow drying it. Would it be detrimental if I air fan it?
What I was doing before was actually blow drying my groin at medium heat for 2 mins, apply it, then blow dry it again at medium...
Hello everyone,
I have been on hydrogel (200mg/ml) at 4 clicks in the morning for 3 months. I finally had time to do my blood work and these were my results:
Labcorp
Testosterone, Total, LC/MS 37.5 Low (264.0-916.0ng/dL)
Testosterone, Free 0.80 Low (5.00-21.00 ng/dL)
Dihydrotestosterone 23...
Hello Nelson,
I have the regular testosterone cream 50mg and currently doing 1 click AM to the scrotum. I combine it with daily injectable t cyp 200mg (0.08cc's) but there has been no bump in libido. I also inject daily hcg (1,000 ius p/week) I have been on this protocol for 7 weeks.
I will...
I wanted to try out test cream with my test/hcg injections. I was prescribed test cream 50 mg/ml, 1 click (0.25ml) which equals to 12.5mg if I did my math correctly. Is the hydrogel better than test cream?
I appreciate your feedback. I was thinking that I had to take 2 separate labs since I take a morning and mid day dose. Defy told me the same thing but I want to double check on here.
