Yeah, Finasteride is something I don't want to measure and dose it wrong... Ugh.. Sucks ass that I need to schedule an appt with a Dermatologist just to get a script for a finasteride topical... and I don't even know if he will prescribe what I want from Empower... smdh

I have scheduled an appt with a dermatologist to get a topical fin script but it's not until Feb 3rd.. UGH! I don't think I can afford to wait long.... Does anybody know of any peptide/research chem sites that sell liquid finasteride? I know of Minoxidil Max but I heard a bunch of shady...

Today I reduced my Test Prop dose to approx. 8mg ed/sq (hard to be exact with those small lines on the insulin syringe.. lol)... but I think I am going to go back to Test Cyp as that should give me better stabilization and less drastic Peaks/Troughs as I get with Prop.... I'm thinking Test Cyp...

Just read the entire thread on Test blending... Obviously I'm seeing too much of a spike and drop with Prop.... Never had any issues with Cyp, but I'm not really seeing any benefit between Prop and Cyp for me as far as mood/well being goes.... However, since starting Prop my hair has thinned...

Last time I had my Progesterone checked was about 14 years ago prior to starting TRT and it was in range...... No help with hair yet and/or no change in mood or well-being... I'm currently on Wellbutrin (past 4 weeks) hoping to improve my mood but no change.. however (on a side note) I have...

My 10hr post injection results aren't too bad, assuming it didn't peak too much higher in the prior 10 hours (10-12 hours seems to be the documented peak times from my research).... I think Prop @ 8-10mg would be the ideal dose, but I'm also wondering to achieve more steady levels without huge...

Yes, Progesterone cream 20mg eod at night before bed... Progesterone 0.76 ng/mL 0.28 - 1.22 ng/mL however, I also have added pregnenelone so that could have contributed to the my progesterone levels....

I started using Progesterone cream on head (hair thinning) for about 3 1/2 weeks at 20mg... here is test results... Progesterone 0.76 ng/mL 0.28 - 1.22 ng/mL

Here are my results for 10 hr post Prop @ 15mg injection..... (inject at 7am/ tested at 5pm). Testosterone, Male 1,199.2 ng/dL 280.0-1,100.0 ng/dL H Sex Hormone Binding Globulin 22 nmol/L 11 - 80 nmol/L Testosterone, Free 321 pg/mL 47 - 244 pg/mL H...

What topical are you using and are you seeing any results?

I think I'm going to give this a try: Hair Restore Ultra Scalp Solution - 60 mL Dropper Bottle of Minoxidil / Azelaic Acid / Finasteride / Ketoconazole 5/12.5/0.1/2% I'd like to get the finasteride component down to .05 or .025..... What is a good vehicle to mix with this... I was thinking of...

I was considering going the topical route, but I am worried about transfer to my wife and kids after rubbing in... figured super low dose oral route would be the way to go... but regarding my theory you have to admit it does make sense considering all factors... I am almost 100% sure that ED...

If Finasteride has a cumulative effect then it wouldn't matter what dosage someone was taking as the finasteride would continue build up in the body to levels that would eventually cause side effects, it's just that a lower dose would take more time to achieve the negative side effects as...

Nelson, One more thing. Can Empower compound finasteride (oral) to a .1mg dose?

Do we need our own physician to prescribe Empowers hair loss products or does Empower have a physician to consult with? MY GP is a woman and I'd be embarrassed asking her for this... smh

I tried Cpap and I lasted maybe a week.... Maybe I need to see a neurologist....

200mg Magnesium at bedtime with selenium and zinc... 10mg melatonin...

Nope not seeing a Psychiatrist..... I do often think that maybe my sleep issues are Neurological as evidenced by my sleep study (I barely hit REM). I used to work as a Federal Air Marshal for 13 years (dealing with constant time zone changes, different sleep schedules, jet lag, etc.) and I...

I've added 20mg DHEA, 50mg Preg in morning... and 10mg topical Progesterone cream at Bedtime.... No changes so far....

Nope....

So far not much difference with my issues... as of today (Jan 1), I dropped to 10mg Prop..... I meet with my doc this friday and I will schedule my blood draw for the following monday... I'm curious to see the peak times 6 and 12 post-inj.... I'm hoping to it does have a big impact on...

I will see if I can draw blood at 6 and 12 hour post injection....

Wouldn't 15mg Prop = 105mg actually 84mg per week (pure test minus ester) 10mg = 70mg actually 56mg per week (pure test minus ester)..... I spoke to my doctor and on my next blood test in a few weeks we are going to measure 12 hr post injection... I'm trying to see what my peak would look...

No I lowered my dose because I had high (and super physiologic) levels for almost 8 of my 11 years on TRT and I felt nothing but shit the entire time... this is the first time Im making a concerted effort to keep my TRT dosing as close to normal as my body would make...

At this point, I'm looking for any help at all..... I haven't slept good for the last 10-15 years... Had apnea test done and they said I very rarely hit REM and If I do it is quick... I wake up every hour or 2 like clockwork... Last night I must have woke up every 30 minutes and today I am...

Below are my Lab results from my use of Test Cyp @ 20mg ed/SQ for 8 months and Test Prop @ 15mg ed/sq for about 3 months. Test Cyp @ 20mg ED/SQ (8 months) Testosterone Total-Male 609.0 ng/dL 300.0 - 890.0 ng/dL Free Testosterone 168.7 pg/mL 47.0 - 244.0 pg/mL Estradiol, Serum 72...

I'm on Test Prop @ 15mg ED SQ and Armour Thryoid 3 grains. For the past 2 1/2 months, I have noticed my hair is rapidly thinning and dry, my beard/stache seems to be growing slower looking mildly sparcer and not as dark.... Energy, mood, libido and sleep sucks... I suspected high E possibly...

The Brand name of Bupropion I am using (SOLCO from Walgreens) hasn't many good reviews that I have read, but then again it's subjective because people who do get good results probably don't bother to post how great it is because it was expected. Anyway, I been on 10 days now and haven't really...

Goals with Prog and Preg are to try to backfill pathways... (I considered this after reading the lengthy thread regarding Progesterone)..... I started taking 5mg DHEA at night, 30mg Preg in morning and will rub Prog Cream 15mg into thinning scalp area (since approx 10% or less of topicals absorb...

If you don't mind me asking... what brand of Bupropion are you using or are you on Brand name Wellbutrin? Also, I am on Bupropion SR 200mg, what dose and how long did it take for you to feel better? I want to feel normal, happy, motivated to workout, improve my cognition, have a good...

Ok, guys I am coming to the end of the journey of TRT... I have been on since 2010 and I never ever felt optimal, always feeling "meh", libido "meh", sleep horrible, up and down E2/DHT and now thinning hair (yay!)... I'm a low SHBG guy and I have been on Test Cyp and Prop variation of dosing...
