Are you saying you switched to T as the Hcg was too costly? How long did it take you to raise your T only being on the Hcg?

Hey guys just an update. I've been on the sub-q Hcg at a 500iu 3x a week dose for the last 2.5 weeks. The last week or so I've really noticed a difference in how i feel. Seem to have more energy, had a couple of kick ass workouts, sex drive is up, noticed morning erection 3x this week which...

Thanks. I did read James Wilson's book Adrenal Fatigue last summer when i was first diagnosed. All those symptoms fit me perfect. I did find stopthethroidmadness.com after my last post and did some reading. I agree it's worth checking out again. What is TPO, TIBC ?

Hey Chris! Thanks for the input. Much appreciated. I posted all the labs that we did so no we didn't delve any further into potential thyroid issues. What you're saying makes sense to look into further, at least from what I remember from my endocrinology class in college 10+ years ago. So...

Thanks Gene I will give them a call

Just an update I've started doing the HcG sub q injections 500units 3x week. Im hoping I respond to this alone we'll see. If I don't and once my wife is pregnant I will likely try the TRT. I do need to find another compounding pharmacy to buy the HCG from as it's really expensive. I tried...

How do you know if you're deficient in b12 other than a lab test? What symptoms would you have besides low energy which can mean anything as far as a dx? What is the best lab test? thanks

Can anyone speak about DIM supplementation? Does it actually work to raise free T? Anyone use it with success?

Using full body movements in the gym will give you plenty of abdominal work. Front squats will really tax your abs and "core". Squats, Deadlifts, kettlebell swings done correctly. If you want direct abdominal work hanging leg raises, planks, and the evil ab wheel will work.

Good point. Thanks Gene!

That's exactly what i was thinking. Although I do feel somewhat better, but that could very well be the effect of the cortisol returning to normal from the steroid therapy. I emailed my doc back today saying I want to try the injections Hcg for a few months at least until my wife gets pregnant...

So I heard back from my doc. He said the reason that he recommended the sublingual Hcg vs the injections was that it is cheaper (I pay about $60/month). The last time he checked on the injections it was about $100/month. He also said that he has seen benefits with his patients using it and a...

I second the bod pod for accuracy and ease of use. Relatively inexpensive, not invasive, takes about 5 min to do and you get the results right away.

Thanks for the info. I have an email out to my doc about the Hcg and injection vs sublingual. Im interested to see what he says. I've googled sublingual Hcg and only find info on a liquid drop form. The stuff im taking is a triturate tablet from a compounding pharmacy. Do you have...

I found this online that might help answer one my question about fertility. http://www.amepc.org/tau/article/view/2249/3145

Here's my post from the introduction forum https://www.excelmale.com/forum/threads/1216-Hello-from-MInnesota Thanks for the replies guys. I haven't spent much time on the site yet but I was surpised to see all the info on Hcg as being injectable. I'll definitely ask my doc about that. Is there...

[COLOR=#333333]Thanks for the replies guys. I haven't spent much time on the site yet but I was surpised to see all the info on Hcg as being injectable. I'll definitely ask my doc about that. Is there really no research to say that sublingual Hcg is not effective? Does it just not absorb...
