So if it is sent from one (hot) country to another hot country and kept out of the fridge for a week, I guess it would be useless, right?

Thanks. Is there any particular probiotic you have found to be effective?

I thought Ovitrelle is good at room temperature unless it has been mixed with bacteriostatic water, in which case it does need refrigeration. I also thought that it can stay good in the fridge for a year or more?

500iu eod on monotherapy and 375 iu E3D combined with 35mg test cypionate.

I experimented with 12.5mg eod at first and it barely increased my levels and I didn't feel anything from it. I felt better when I switched to 12.5mg daily and even better when I tried 25mg daily. That dose took my T slightly above the top of the lab reference range. I felt good in all respects...

Yes significantly at the right dose!

It's common for guys to experience either a slight reduction or no change in libido when taking enclomiphene. Enclomiphene antagonizes the estrogen receptors in the hypothalamus, which can negatively impact libido. The zuclomiphene isomer in clomid, on the other hand, is an estrogen receptor...

Do you take an AI or have you taken one in the past? Have you taken any antibiotics during the past 12 months?

How about Accutane?

Th That's exactly what I was thinking! I

I'd like to get feedback on thymosin alpha-1 from anyone who has taken it. What dose did you take, what did you take it for and what benefits and side effects did you experience? Thanks.

So which peptide is best for cartilage injury?

hCG caused very rapid hair loss in me. I've read mixed opinions about its effects on DHT. Some say it raises it, some say it lowers it.

What do you people think about combining enclomiphine with a small amount of clomid? For example 12.5mg/day of enclomiphene and 5mg eod of clomid? That may solve the drop in libido that enclomiphene causes.

I'm referring to guys who are not on TRT and have low LH!

Interestingly, some guys can take high doses of DHT and not lose any hair, yet when their androsterone is elevated, they lose a heap of hair. They say that the reason why 5 alpha reductase inhibitors work is because they also suppress androsterone.

If I'm not mistaken, male pattern baldness is not caused by elevated DHT, but rather high estrogen and androsterone.

What is the percentage of oral DHEA that gets absorbed compared with the percentage absorbed via transdermak administration?

You work for the *** company, correct?

LOL. I once consulted with a female endocrinologist and when I told her I had a low libido, she said I should consider that a good thing because in her opinion most men have a libido that is too high!

Thanks. What are the possible side effects of 5-HTP?

Interesting, thanks. I wonder if someone with low normal testosterone and not on TRT could use a small dose such as 5mg of TNE in oil in the morning once or twice a week and avoid suppression?

Do you know if a high dose ssri like Prozac for 2 years could permanently suppress serotonin?

You could well be right that TNE in oil may be suitable to avoid hpta suppression, however, it may eliminated so fast after administration that it is useless even for a temporary libido boost. The study didn't state how quickly it gets degraded.

Yes and it didn't work as I later discovered tryptophan has poor oral bioavailability.

After I posted my question, readalot posted a study suggesting that TNE in oil, as opposed to test suspension is degraded very soon after administration, so is not suitable. Test base dissolved in DMSO and applied transdermally would likely be a much better option, similar to nasal gel.

I've found that 5-HTP has helped my sleep quite a bit. Also taking 2 tablespoons of gelatin powder dissolved in some boiling water. Gelatin is high in glycine, which is helpful for sleep.

Ok that's great

Gotcha. From what I've read, the 70/30 dmso/water concentration doesn't burn the skin and has a higher absorption rate than 99.9% dmso. Buccal administration could potentially be another option, right?

Thanks, Vince. I thought that TSH should be under 2? My TSH 10 years ago was 1.2. I don't think they run the reverse T3 test in my country. I didn't get thyroid antibodies tested

Just got my thyroid blood test results back. Currently not taking anything. Have been off Enclomiphene for nearly 3 months. Do these results indicate sub optimal thyroid function? If so, what are some ways I can improve it? TSH 2.41 (range 0.40 - 4.0) mIU/L Free T4 13.6 (range 9.0 - 25.0)...
