I mean... not to be a dick, but at this point you've made a major decision regarding your health with absolutely zero evidence that there was anything wrong in the first place. There's tons of men on here who successfully conceived while on test + HCG, so it was honestly nothing more than a crap...

Damn. That's a lot. Did you have a fertility test done before doing all this? Sperm count/quality? I'd hate for you to be putting yourself through all of this without knowing for sure there's something to be gained. Personally, I would have added FSH and perhaps clomid first for a couple of...

north Houston here (Spring)! You'll get some hesitation on test from different docs if you're "in range" blah blah blah. I'm a big fan of Defy and a combination therapy of test + nandrolone and HCG personally. It's more expensive than going through a local doc since you can't take advantage of...

I can understand the frustration, but since I'm on compounded enanthate and nandrolone, I wouldn't find a pharma equivalent anyways.

you may want to seriously revisit why you're concerned about your cholesterol in the first place. Do a search on duckduckgo about "cholesterol scam" "statin scam" "cholesterol heart disease", etc. Most people on statins have been duped.

let me ditto the comment regarding seriously looking into statins. They're pretty terrible and rarely worth the risk.

The T3 can take a while to get out of your system, though I'd think you'd have cleared it by now. Have you considered other blood pressure medicines? Telmisartan tend to work great for those of us on TRT. I had somewhat similar, but WAY less pronounced issues as you describe and dropped the T3...

poor erection quality. Imagine actually pushing a piece of rope and trying to keep it straight.

"My left shoulder 90% improvement , lower back pain and right elbow tendinitis 100% improvement." Almost impossible to believe that's anything but psychosomatic. I'm a big proponent of nanrolone myself, but someting here doesn't add up.

calf cramps!!!! OMG... Nelson, you're a peach. I've been trying to figure out where they came from. Thanks for the link! Now you have me thinking....

Throw that shit away. Let Defy guide you and you'll be fine. They are NOT going to put you on some measly micro-dose; they'll most likely set you at high normal, and anything above that has health concerns you don't want. I strongly recommend a testosterone/nandrolone blend... it's been great...

I'm in a very similar situation. I'm 43, 5'9", 190 lbs. My work out though mainly revolves around heavy lifting right now. My blood pressure increased after starting TRT a few years ago. My doc wasn't worried about it, but I was consistently at that pre-hypertensive range of like 135-139 and I...

Eat good foods. Avoid junk. Take testosterone. Lift heavy shit. Run. Repeat. I stay fit in order to stay fit, not to please someone else. I want to be able to perform physically demanding tasks that I enjoy without pain and soreness. I took the whole family camping this weekend, then came home...

Bro, I'm sorry, but you need to RUN from this doctor. Do not walk, do not pass go, etc. There is NO reason to "go cold" for 30 days, that's f'ing retarded. That's all I needed to hear. Please consider Defy. Seriously, you need an expert, not someone that's throwing darts to see what sticks. I...

Lots of good advice and info here. The only thing I would add is that if you're experiencing high estrogen symptoms, I don't see any reason to "tough it out" instead of taking a smaller dose of your AI to help get you back down where you need to be. Snip one of your 1mg pills in halves or...

Empower has it. You should be able to get it through Defy, but I'm not sure what all that entails as I do all my hormones through them.

For some reason, cypionate makes my calves cramp when I run. I have no idea why, I'm well aware that there's no scientific or medical reason, but I can keep myself at the same total and free t level on enanthate as I once did on cypionate and have no issues. When I switched from cypionate to...

Ok, let's go back to your TRT protocol. What were you taking, how often, etc?

I'm a big proponent of test enanthate myself. I don't want to believe that the docs are in bed with the pharm companies making all these creams and gels and pellets and BS, but... man, when a regular old injection is the last thing recommended, it makes me wonder. Glad you're doing well!

Perhaps willingness was a poor choice of words. I guess it seems like you almost eliminated therapies in reverse order, from least common/most expensive first to most common/least expensive last. Hope I didn't come across harsh! I was just wondering if there was a reason for leaving regular old...

I guess what I don't understand is the willingness to first try damn near everything else BUT cheap, reliable, easy injections.

I'm curious why you dropped the TRT in the first place. Also, with the symptoms you're experiencing now, why not restart? I can't help but feel like the easiest, surest solution is being ignored. What am I missing?

The latest gimmick from Harvard to get people to spend their money on a (still mostly illegal) substance, of which Harvard will never see a dime. Ok. Totally makes sense. You know what else is a gimmick? Tylenol. I see it all the time. Back pain? Take a Tylenol. Fever? Take a Tylenol...

Welcome! I started TRT with my GP, but quickly moved away from that situation and have now been with Defy for 2 years. I wouldn't change a thing. Yes, telemedicine does seem a little different at first, but I quickly learned to appreciate having the undivided attention of someone who...

First, what you're saying is absolutely false. There's plenty of information out there that shows the exact opposite of what you're saying. I'll include a snip that represents the tip of the iceberg just to prove my point, but there's a ton of information showing the exact opposite of what...

It's fascinating to see how differently we all react to different protocols, drugs, therapies, etc. There really is no "one size fits all" solution to anything health related! Personally, I've always slept like a rock until being diagnosed with carpal tunnel and cubital tunnel syndrome in in...

I started with Defy at 41, so don't worry about that. As previously mentions, symptoms are always more important than numbers with Defy, but more important than that, Defy is looking for ways to *optimize* your health, instead of shrugging their shoulders at a lab result and saying "well, you're...

I don't refrigerate anything other than reconstituted HCG. I'm not aware of any test that should be refrigerated. I can't help you with peptides.

Consider a higher anastrozole dose. According to your post, your estrogen is clearly out of control.

Start with where you're located. Won't do us any good to recommend something not in your country.

You're not going to find that. The only way you're going to be able to go the GoodRx route is through your GP or a urologist.
