That's interesting about the mouthpiece - is it one of those you mould yourself with boiling water, like a gumshield? I bought one a few months back, but haven't got around to moulding / using it yet. If that's what you're using, has it completely stopped your snoring?
Well you're probably fairly suppressed hpta wise now you're on trt. If you really wanted to try an alternative like you said, i think it would make more sense to at least try using a serm med like clomid, not just drop your injections and take pregnenolone. All this depends on why you had to go...
Thanks for the detailed reply. From what i've read, you wouldn't be the first person who didn't find trt was the magic bullet they were hoping for. Mind you i think in a lot of cases it's more down to the protocol used than trt itself that's the problem. Maybe in your case it was, like you...
When your test was 295, were you overweight? Are you in better shape now? Just trying to work out what's different that would cause your natural levels to be so much higher now?
I'm mostly concerned about the vitamin d issue - there seems to be two completely opposing opinions on this, one that it helps protect, the other that it makes things worse. I always take d3 anyhow, but i bought my elderly parents some 5000iu pills last week, and now i'm wondering if i did the...
Ok, so i don't think this was the article i originally read, but it mentions how mesterolone may lower total test. I'll keep looking:
JPMA - Journal Of Pakistan Medical Association
"Gonadotropins were not supressed by mesterolone treatment. The fall of total testosterone may be due to...
From my own experiences with both low dose clomid and proviron, i believe that proviron WILL cause some amount of suppression if not straight away then eventually.
My test levels circa 2012, prior to using clomid, averaged in the low 300's. On clomid, low 600's (note - i only had the one...
That's really interesting G_b_V. I'm sure i read once that Dr Scally had his patients come off once a year, for similar reasons. Do you use hcg all the time you're taking testosterone, or cycle it maybe? And do you ever get any blood work done when you've been off those six weeks, to see how...
Some other suggestions for you to look into:
Pregabalin, kratom, tianeptine. Not strictly anti anxiety meds, but may help. Also, there are several Russian anti anxiety meds you might want to research (phenibut is only one of them). I doubt your doc would prescribe them, but you could get them...
Seems an odd choice to make in my opinion, your own body was using the dhea you took and making its own testosterone at a healthy level. Most people wouldn't get that result. I'd say if you weren't getting symptom relief after getting your levels using dhea up to around 500, then your problems...
Not sure why you didn't just keep taking the dhea and hold off on the trt - it was raising your testosterone levels to nearly 500 and you felt good......
As a suggestion as to what i found to be the (in my opinion) perfect anti anxiety med, it was a little know research benzo called Pyrazolam -
Pyrazolam - Wikipedia
It acts upon the a2 and a3 subtypes of GABA-A receptor, meaning it has virtually no sedative properties at all but excellent anti...
I was put on Sertraline some years ago. It was one of the worst experiences of my life - anxiety levels went through the roof, personality changed in such a way that i was unable to find anything amusing that i had done before, literally stopped me being able to laugh at anything. After...
I get what you're saying, and i (don't think) i care what other people think of me being natty or not either. It's more to do with my owm self perception of who or what i am. If my main ''thing' in life was not gym (sounds sad doesn't it?) but lets say, being a musician - i don't think i'd have...
The short notes for my story are -
Got NHS tested (UK) around 2012, age 41, tested low normal. Tested two weeks later after taking DAA, tested much lower. Bought some black market clomid, took it, tested again about four weeks later, came back double my first tests value. No testing till last...
Yes, me. Ever since i recieved my first testosterone blood test back in around 2012, i've literally spent all my spare time reading up on testosterone, how to increase it, what things can lower it, how to replace it etc, etc, etc. I must have put the word 'testosterone' into Google more than...
I didn't get PFS type symptoms coming off proviron tbh. At that point anyhow the benefits i got at the start weren't really there (huge motivation increase, general great mood), i just kept taking it because i usually feel so rough when i wake up i'll try anything. The joint problems i got...
Unfortunately yes, for several months. I believed everything i'd read on the various forums (not this one, lol) about it not being suppresive. I was also taking low dose clomid which i thought would protect me. I only made the connection recently when i came across a study showing proviron...
