Thanks for describing your experience with these blockers. It will help me if I decide to give them another try. I have read similar accounts in regard to Yohimbine (as its more of an a2 blocker than a1), so have not tried it. It must have been extremely odd given your normal reaction to anxiety...

Thank you very much for this, I will have a good look at both. I remember Chilln on All Things male. He had some interesting ideas. I have also read a reasonable amount of studies on Alpha1 blockers as I too thought they may help me, given they should block the action of one of the major...

This is interesting, do you have any links to this research with female to male trans people? I have arrived at the supposition given my research on the topic that TRT can elevate the activity of our sympathetic nervous system in many men. In effect it may cause an imbalance in the sympathetic...

I reiterate what I said in this post to you: https://www.excelmale.com/forum/threads/33-year-old-been-struggling-to-get-dialed-in-for-6-years-looking-for-help.26371/post-237832 As a young man you should be trying everything to NOT be on testosterone replacement. I completely agree with Belakas...

I agree with giving up the coffee. It can have quite a negative effect with erections and increase anxiety markedly with some people; Adrenalin! As has been mentioned before, try and ignore most of the effects you feel after changing a protocol for at least a month. The real effects positive or...

I think you can already see your T levels are too high. Have you tried hCG at some time? If my T levels were that high, my penis would not work at all. My anxiety would also be elevated.

I don't see how 35mg a week of Cypionate would have been doing much at all? If what you really want is for your natural T to "bounce back", then Clomid or Enclomiphene would be your best option. It works in a matter of weeks not months. It would need to be run for a few months and then very...

Did he suggest you have pelvic floor issues?

This has been my experience with TRT. My refractory period has been much longer. I know I have mentioned this before: I feel this is one of the short comings of TRT, possibly due to the loss of our gonadotropins, particularly FSH. It affects some guys much more than others. I know I keep...

Clomid can make you feel shut down because of the estrogenic effects it can have in some men, even though it may be increasing natural testosterone production significantly. It can make many men feel quite awful while they are taking it. Enclomiphene citrate (the single isomer version of...

ED, is not a condition that warrants TRT on its own. Far from it. Testosterone replacement rarely fixes ED, in fact it often causes issues with erectile function. IMO there is nothing better for sexual function in a young man than when all his natural hormones are in place and working as they...

I understand. If that testosterone was legitimate and it is only relatively recent that you have DC the higher amounts of weekly T injections, it may take some time for your body to adjust and find a level of homeostasis again with regard to issues created by excess T. It is my opinion that if...

I agree completely. As a *** male, I know of many men that have masturbated to porn all their lives on and off and have never had an issue with their sexual function, nor their ability to enjoy real sex with another person. Sex addiction is a different issue and should not be confused with...

Hi Robbie, From your post it reads that you have only been on this protocol for 4 weeks at 100mg a week? How long ago did you stop the supraphysiologic 250mg dose of T a week? How long have your testes been shut down for? 20mg of Tadalafil is a high dose for a young man, do you get significant...

It sounds like you went from AAS use straight onto TRT, is this correct? Is a doctor treating you? During the eight years of AAS use, did you have breaks (cycle off) and if so, did your symptoms resolve during these breaks? hCG can have a “honeymoon” period when you first use it for many men...

hCG did not help you at any time with all those trials? How much T were you taking during those trials with hCG? When you decided to start TRT, were your natural levels of T at the time very low and if so had you already been off AAS for some time? Did a doctor suggest your health problems were...

No, I did not use anything, however, as I mentioned I had been on hCG. My testes were running to some extent and were a reasonable size. At the time, I think I wanted to see how I felt again, not on hormone replacement. I stayed off TRT for almost 2 years, then resumed. If you have been on for...

Given your reply, the answer to my questions must have been yes? Have you tried adding hCG or Ovidrel to your protocol? If it were me, I would consider a lower dose of testosterone. How long did you use steroids for? What was the reason for starting TRT, did your T not return satisfactorily post...

This is the key here. When you say you have a low sex drive, do you mean there is little sex drive in the loins specifically? Such as a loss of sexual sensation in the penis and scrotum and the urge or need for sexual release that we feel in the groin is either missing or very muted? If your ED...

I noticed in your other post you are training 5 days a week and you were on a low carb diet. Is there a possibility that you are in a state of over-training? At age 50 this is easier to achieve that when we were 25! I would take a few weeks rest and see if things improve. Years ago, in my 30's...

Your optimism is a little premature given you are still most likely experiencing the stimulation from Enclomiphene. However, 3 months is a very short time and should not cause difficulties with a restart with just TRT dosages. I have stopped cold turkey after being on TRT for a number of years...

Big Tex, I am happy to see that you son has turned a corner and is making progress. I would like to apologise for my initial post in your thread, as I did not read the entire thread, something I don’t usually do. Getting good medical help, especially mental health care is often a class issue...

After not being on testosterone related forums for a considerable time, I find it hard to believe how often I read now of guys starting out with dosages around 200 mg per week. Where has this come from? When I first started my TRT journey about 25 years ago, we had 2 injectable options...

The problem here is that our customs control for any of these drugs is very tight and will most likely get seized if not procured through the special access scheme for unavailable drugs in Australia. Doctors can apply for this, but it is a long process. Ovidrel is readily available here and...

Hi, if I did say that I have made a mistake. I am definitely taking around 40 twice per week. I am getting some new labs done soon so will let you know.

Living in AU, we have access to Sustanon too. I did not think it was available or prescribed in the US, perhaps you are in Europe? I used it decades ago and found it very unpredictable owing to all the mixed esters in it. It was designed to be used as a 3 week single injection. Not for weekly...

Another Australian :) Are you taking Primoteston like me? Are you including hCG in your protocol or have you taken hCG in the past? I am taking 40mg twice per week.

Equivalent to 325iu of hCG, twice a week. Meaning I take 2 doses, which equals 650iu a week. Sorry if that was not clear. From my understanding 250mcg of rCG is equivalent o about 6500iu of hCG. Each pen of Ovidrel contains 250mcg of rCG.

They certainly do!

I have mentioned this before in another post, you could try Ovidrel (rCG). It does not lose any potency for 12 months. I have been using it for 3 months now for the second time with a higher dose and appears to be working well for me. Previously, I tried it a number of years ago with a lower...

Andriol, which is oral testosterone undecanoate, has been available in Australia for a long time, more than a couple of decades. It was never very popular here. I tried it many years ago and did not feel very much from it at all unfortunately.
