    Help needed on balancing my hormones

    Are you still taking clomid and HCG, or did you stop after the recovery period? After so many years on TRT, I find it interesting that you get your own T production back up to that full amount. Regarding your low free T, I support Cetaceous' advice to use Natesto if it's available to you. I've...

    Information about Proviron

    Seeking knowledge and sharing knowledge is not objectionable, that's what this forum is for. I am in this field and I can tell you that it is unfortunate how many specialists (endocrinologist, urologist...) mishandle patients with low T.

    Information about Proviron

    It is rapidly inactivated, so it is not as stable as testosterone is, so since TRT is designed for life, it makes no sense to use Proviron as a stand-alone TRT. But it certainly has some properties that make it interesting in some specific circumstances and indications. In Spain it is covered by...

    Information about Proviron

    Proviron does not aromatize so it will never give you high E2, instead it binds to the aromatase enzyme and prevents testosterone from aromatizing so less E2 is produced and more of your own or exogenous testosterone is available to your system, it also gives you more free testosterone for a...

    Information about Proviron

    it is probably just a matter of hormone imbalances. i think estradiol is key, but difficult to control.

    Information about Proviron

    I would appreciate it if you could keep us informed on how it works for you. Regarding the fact that the problem is low libido and not erectile dysfunction, I can say that the same thing happened to me before I started TRT. If I had libido, rock boner was guaranteed, if no libido then ED. But...

    Information about Proviron

    Yes, I have also thought about that combination, it sounds interesting. I did a research on the internet and there are TRT clinics where that combination is discouraged, they don't say why. https://themenshealthclinic.co.uk/your-trt-options/ They say: "We do not advocate the use of Clomiphene...

It is currently covered by public health systems in countries such as Spain, and the indications basically...

    Information about Proviron

    Actually, I have been having the temptation, (if proviron were able by itself of giving me libido, wellbeing sensation, proper erectil function, and good mood), to use it to try to come off TRT, since it is almost not supresive to HPTA at usual doses. It is true the recovery would be slower...

    Information about Proviron

    if you feel ok when starting TRT but then shitty after 6 weeks on it, then you need is to have lab work done and see your numbers, I guess you have being on cypinate T, it reach steady state at about 6 weeks from the first dose, so at that point may be you need to fix your protocol (not to stop...

    Information about Proviron

    I have been reading papers about proviron lately and I honestly wish I would have known about it before I started TRT. At that time because of working and studing plus more stressing situations I was hardly slepping 4 hours at night for several months , that was with 47 years old, I ended having...

    Trt and heart disease

    Same for me. I'm 53 years old, but after 5 years on TRT, I look younger than 53, more manly, more energy, more sexy. I don't say that, it is my 29 years old wife who felt in love with me 2 years ago by mistake, thinking I was younger. When she knew about my trt and my real age, she said it was...

    Trt and heart disease

    Not that easy. Biology is very complex and there is much to be know yet. I've never had problems with blood sugar, insulin sensitivity, been overweight, or bad lipid profile.

    Trt and heart disease

    I don't know. But it is known low testosterone is associated with higher cardiovascular morbidity. The damage must be at endotelial (vascular) level, plus some genetically prone individuality.

    Trt and heart disease

    Prior to TRT 5 years ago, I was having ventricular hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, plus auricular extrasystoles, 2 years later I was asymptomatic and echocardiogram showed normal. When I try to come off TRT, arrithmia comes back (along with hypogonadal symptoms) to remind me why I am on TRT.

    HCG DOSE FREQUENCY

    @Nelson Vergel, Thank you for the information!! Dr. Saya's study is specially informative and specific answer for my question. I'll start using 500 IU eod instead 250 IU ed. My only concern is the raising of E2, so I'll also try adding some Anastrozol, even when E2 from HCG is not produced...

    Clomiphene Citrate for Male Hypogonadism

    Of course should be taken in consideration by a doctor, for each individual case, I just can say there are many studies showing clomid is very safe, incidence of visual problema are uncomonly reported and is directly correlated with the dose... 25mg eod is unlikely to produce visual problems.

    Clomiphene Citrate for Male Hypogonadism

    Yes, no doubt clomid helps, but unfortunately it only do its jobs while taking it, once you stop, numbers come down to the initial state... And for some men, like me, it kills sexual drive, it seems to be depending more on age, I am 53. For me clomid is not worthy cause it gives me good numbers...

    Getting off TRT for fertility

    Well, the update is not a good new: when adding HMG (LH + FSH) and increasing hcg dose to 250 IU EOD, while keeping TRT, libido and erectil funtion got progresively worse, also hmg is very expensive so I quited that aproach, stoped TRT and stayed on hcg 250 iu eod + clomiphene 25 mg eod, and...

    Clomiphene Citrate for Male Hypogonadism

    Now I desire fertility but I can't use clomiphene. However, Tamoxiphene don't kill my libido; in spite of giving me other physical side effects, libido and erections are ok. But there are concerns about some damage in DNA (affecting the sperm). I have been searching for studies that confirm that...

    Considering weaning off of TRT

    Tadalafil seems to increase testosterone levels by itself. In other hand, It doesn't improve libido by itself, but the fact of feeling able to have easy erections give me big libido with tadalafil.
