My insurance provider, United Health Care/Optum Rx Home Delivery, continues to advise, since September 2024, they have no inventory of testosterone gel 1% 50mg packs. I've been prescribed TRT for 18 years and have never experienced this before. Is there some kind of widespread shortage or is the...

I’ve been on trt for 2 years but haven’t found a protocol that really works for me. I’ve done a few posts about these issues already. Cypionate and enthanate give me palpitations (a constant hard beating heart) but sustanon doesn’t which I presume is down to the benzyl benzoate as that is the...

From 200mg 500 hcg to 150 500 hcg, my joint is out of commission. I basically skip a day where I would inject 50mg test and just do hcg, making my split 3x instead of 4. Viagra is not working, don’t know why. I feel better in every aspect otherwise. I tried 20 mg of turinabol today and that did...

Hi, I am a 33 almost 34 year old male and recently got lab work done along with a physical. I feel like I have been stressed out more because of work and trying to reduce my stress while keeping my health and well being up. I workout 3 to 5 days a week and love lifting. I am not on TRT as well...

I'd like to know what everyone's training splits, duration and intensity.. any other variables, look like? What does your protein intake plan, do you implement fasting? How important is testosterone in protein synthesis, how important is training hard?

Hi, I will be refilling my second bottle come this Monday, and I cannot find a refill anywhere. My doctor hasn't gotten back to me with any suggestions on where to find DELATESTRYL 200mg/ml. Does anyone know of anywhere in GTA or surrounding cities that has it in stock, I dont mind driving...

I will try to be brief but I have been struggling to gain any benefits from TRT. I reluctantly started test inject mainly do to cost of other treatments six months ago. I have not seen or felt any positive benefits. My sleep has worsened, sex drive has actually gone done, testicular atrophy set...

What's the opinion on Testosterone shelf life for opened vials.... ? I was thinking of giving Test Prop a try again and have 90-95% full vial from Empower that was opened about 13-14 months ago....(it was stored in dark, dry place, the color and consistency still looks like new). Any thoughts?

Hey guys. Last year i was pretty much dialed in on ug testosterone my total T was close to 900 and FT was around 26-27. Now i have testosterone from the pharmacy. 8 weeks back i started at 55mg 2x per week. So 110mg a week. My levels came back at: TT : 760 FT: 21 With how many mg’s do i...

I’ve always had dark vials from hikma/Actavis but this time it is clear same manufacturer. I noticed it looks like the same tint as their progesterone vials and I’m concerned they mislabeled. I have picks of old vials vs the new clear one

TT 640 ng / dl TF 9 ng / dl SHBG 62 nmol / l E 32 pg / ml Since I can't get a recipe for Natesto, I'd like to use Testo Biodentico gel as a booster. Some of the gel options I found in the recipe: 3%> 30mg. Daily dose 30 days 5%> 50mg 10% <100mg Would 50mg a day be too much? Androgel is 50mg per day

This thread is an offshoot of a previous thread I just read linked here: The longer I'm on TRT, the worse I feel. Idk what to do anymore. Several members mention that they feel good on retail pharmacy test but not good on compounded test. They claim this to be true despite having...

Simple question that i cannot find the answer to: Will Oxandrolone alter Total Testosterone/ Free Testosterone on lab work?

Is Total T MS panel specific enough to recognize a testosterone molecule from a nandrolone molecule? I know the standard non sensitive Total T panel can’t differentiate test and nandrolone and will add them together, and the Total T LC/MS/MS panel is specific enough to know the difference and...

Hey guys I had a few questions. My drs. Have been useless!!!! original total t- 159 and 213 He started me on 100mg a week total t came back after being on 100mg at 133 so it dropped since November I have been on 200mg a week... total t always comes back at 430-480 injecting at home doing .33...

I'm 58 years old, generally in good shape. I used to work and run regularly (3-4 times per week) but I've been somewhat limited for about a year due to COVID. I still work out at home with dumbells and run and use a stationary bike several days per week, but these are relatively short...

I want to do a blood test but unsure as to when blood levels will stabilize after starting 40mg test prop EOD. Does anyone know?

I feel the best emotionally and get the best sleep as close to being natty when I inject ED around 12,5mg Test Prop in the evening prior to bed. Been experimenting for quite some time and indeed there is a very big difference. Wake up full of energy and feel calm during the day. Also this...

Like some others I find that I feel best when Test is rising not when it is stable. Has anyone constructed a protocol that makes them feel great with high libido at the weekends and a little less distracted throughout the week when you have to get work done? Mon-Fri for me is sat behind a desk...

Can't find a consistent answer to this. When calculating the T:E2 ratio, should I use free or total testosterone? I'm doing this for self research purposes. My last labs looked like this: Total T: 1110 (ref 250-1100) Free T: 224.2 (ref 35-155) E2: 35 (ref <= 29) T was high but that had to do...

I was just curious where everyones free test sits according to your labs and how you feel. I ask that teh discussion be kept to a minimum. I know there are many other factors besides free t but i would like to take a survey just to get this one data point. example: I am at 25pg/ml and i feel...

Hey folks, I’ve been on 100mg Test-C 1x/wk for 4 weeks now. For the first 2-3 weeks I was feeling great overall, sense of wellbeing was way up, energetic, more motivated in the gym... just really doing well. The last couple of days have been... not that. I take my Test-C Thursday evening or...

I just received my medication and I'm a bit confused. I have 2x 5mL bottles of 200mg/mL test cyp. I am on a .1ml daily dose (which should be 20mg daily) I purchased easy touch u-100 27g .5cc 1/2" syringes per a suggestion in another thread. Problem is I'm sadly getting completely lost in the...

I started Testosterone replacement therapy about 2 months ago. I had low energy where I wanted to sleep all day everyday, couldn't pay attention to a word anyone was saying, didn't have emotion or desire to do anything, brain fog, cognition all down. Fast forward 2 months of 200mg of test c per...

Switched to ed injections and stopped ai as I felt I didn’t need it! Been two weeks still not feeling better but definitely not having high e2 symptoms! My appetite is slowly coming back and my severe stomach pain and dizziness from adex is disappearing! how long until I feel better,morning...

How does one calculate the correct amount of HCG to combine with TRT to preserve sperm production? My doc prescribed 100IU a week to go with my 150mg of test C. However the study in the link below suggests 500IU every other day - that's quite a difference! How does one determine the correct...

Say you're on enanthate and want to switch to a shorter ester like prop (better for dialing in instead of waiting 6 weeks just to make changes). How would you go about making the transition as smooth as possible? Ideally you'd just wait out the 4 weeks for it to fully clear the body before...

Hello, I recently switched my regimen up to daily injections and noticed the following in my blood work. May 2019- 20 mg EOD Total T- 1039 Free T- 266.8 Oct 2019- 10 mg ED Total T- 1332 Free T- 294.6 My doctor said that these numbers were too high and lowered the dosage down to 8mg ED. I am...

Does anybody where 125 mg of testosterone a week would put my trough levels? It would be divided in 2 shots a week. Also is that dose enough to lower SHBG?

Does Defy have Natesto available ? Looking to try it since it’s the only form of TRT that does not suppress your HPTA.

TLDR: My urologist is refusing to keep treating me and I'm unsure if Testosterone is the answer to my symptoms. I would love advice from you guys on whether TRT is the right road for me. Background: I've had many blood tests over the past 2 years due to a list of symptoms (ED, lack of morning...
