    Really hungry on shot days

    SoCalSurfer, watch the rice milk. I realize you monitor your glucose levels closely but it's way too high on the glycemic index. http://www.mendosa.com/gilists.htm

    How is intratesticular estrogen measured, and how is it treated?

    Would it present medically the same way elevated serum e2 does?

    Estrogen: Definitive answer on E2 testing methodologies

    So if there a difference in the testing methods, or are they simply using a more accurate statistical model?

    Estrogen: Definitive answer on E2 testing methodologies

    I'm sorry but the more I read the less I understand in regards to E2 testing. I have had the sensitive assay and the regular one and both are almost the same when considering the reference ranges. To be more specific, I am right in the middle of both reference ranges. I've had several E2 labs...

    Phlebotomists suggestion for those that bruise and/or have a great deal of pain

    The phlebotomist told me today that they just taught her a new technique for patients that bruise or have pain. Pinch the fat and then twist it before injecting. This method of injecting is kind of a variation on the z-track and should help to prevent bleeding. She also stated, as Gene did in a...

    Subcutaneous Administration of Testosterone

    Excellent video Nelson. I have one question; I thought you were suppose to inject an amount of air equal to the amount of T that you are going to inject into the bottle?

    How long can one avoid lifting before experiencing a loss?

    For whatever reason there are these periods of time where I just don't have the time or desire to go to the gym. How long can I avoid the gym before some of the gains are lost?

    Does Testosterone cause dependence/addiction?

    I don't feel as though it causes any addiction either but it should be discussed. There are proponents of this idea and they use it as an argument against T/ AAS. When you bring up the idea of necessity I immediately think of AAS. Before TRT I always lumped exogenous T with AAS or being old. AAS...

    Does Testosterone cause dependence/addiction?

    I agree with you both but when I think about discontinuing use for a short period of time....well I really BELIEVE that I need it. If, I asked either one of you to go off of T and not supplement w/ HCG or Clomid you would look at me as if I were crazy. You absolutely function better w/ it but...

    Does Testosterone cause dependence/addiction?

    All of the research suggests that their is no physical dependence to exogenous Testosterone. Most of us have realized incredible improvements in physical and mental health from T as such what are your thoughts on psychological dependence to T?

    IOC to act after new testing methods reveal hundreds of positive results

    I disagree w/ legalization/ acceptance as it sends a message to younger athletes. I think we can all agree that HPTA suppression in a young teen would have rather significant deleterious effects. The average teen athlete is not going to be able to afford the medical supervision necessary...

    Weight loss and Naltrexone

    CRP???? and 3mg is extremely low at least compared to study but be cautious as higher dose caused me some pretty severe dizziness.

    Weight loss and Naltrexone

    I'm on the combination of naltrexone and bupropion (wellbutrin). They do not sell the doses that are listed in above study so I have to break pills and come as close as possible. I'm on 300 mg bupropion and 25 mg naltrexone as 37mg was way to high and I experienced some rather bizarre side...

    lowering testosterone

    Healthy levels of T are not going to cause the issues I'm referring to but with certain populations a reduction in libido (reduction in T) can allow, or at least not interfere with behavior modifications/ therapy. If we can agree just to agree on said statement, what are some natural ways to...

    IOC to act after new testing methods reveal hundreds of positive results

    It would be interesting to see all athletes compete on a level playing field. Perhaps we could have two games separated by 6 months to a year. One competition drug free - what is our human potential w/o drugs and one where the athletes have trained w/ drugs. As we all have a slightly different...

    Dark urine after T shot

    I'm wondering if it couldn't be an intolerance to the ester? I've ruled out everything else and it always occurs w/in a few hours of injection. By the next day urine returns to normal. I will discuss it with my doc and see what he says. Thanks for your thoughts

    Men's health: What is fit for your age?

    Gene, I never read anything from you about cardio. If you don't mind, what are you doing cardio wise to realize this level of fitness? (I ask this question b/c I am usually on one end of the spectrum or other. Aerobic or anaerobic athlete if you will but never both. I find it hard to balance the...

    How to get your Dr. to prescribe something they are reluctant to.

    Having an issue getting my Dr. to prescribe HCG. Does anyone have any advice other than going the illegal route? He is fairly well versed in TRT and feels HCG is overrated and expensive. I think this question applies to many drugs/ therapies in the TRT/HRT world for most men.

    Mexican Pharmacies

    Anastrozole is so cheap you would have to be insane to get it from illegitimate sources. Tell your Dr. that you feel T wearing off around day 4-5 and assuming labs come back at least high normal they should be more than willing to prescribe.

    TReaTing Diabesity With Testosterone

    Marco, I thank you for many of your posts. Testosterone has improved all markers of my MetS. Sadly, I am still "slightly diabetic" even w/ T and other medications. I too am hypertensive. Had a cardiologist do a full work up before TRT and he was completely on board. The only issue I have had in...

    Why is my urine always very dark a few hours after my T shot? I have taken excess vitamins in the past and urine is always neon yellow this is more of a dark yellow.

    How much money does your doctor receive from pharmaceutical companies?

    Very interesting thank you Nelson. None of my previous GP's have any reportable payments but all of my specialists have.
