I haven't kept this current so here's an update: 9/11/2012 was last blood work after 100mg test-C e5-7d - my goal was e5d but since I don't self-pin, I wasn't able to get to my doc always e5d. Blood work results were: total T - 932 ng/dL free T - 16.31 ng/dL SHBG - 40 nmo/L E2 - 48.7...

Stumbled across this one on the internet: Abstract Top Lying is a pervasive phenomenon with important social and economic implications. However, despite substantial interest in the prevalence and determinants of lying, little is known about its biological foundations. Here we study a potential...

When you start cruising Wal Mart late at night and have lustful thoughts about the big bicep chunky ladies and privately tell youself that you would if you could if nobody would know, it's time for a downward dosage adjustment of your T.

Thank you for sharing and your advice. I made a decision to go with 100mg E5D. I'm not afraid to self-pin but will continue with these visits as the MD is a client of mine and I enjoy going there because we always talk and I get a lot of value add in other areas. What I am paying is very...

OK here's recent blood work after 100mg test-c done in two pins (50mg each pin roughly every 3-4 days). 7/20/2012 Total T - 603 ng/dl Free T - 8.61 ng/dl SHBG - 49 NMOL/l E2 - 31.8 pg/ml Compare this to previous blood work on 5/30/2012 after 4 week of test-c of 50mg once a week. Total test -...

I'm not afraid to pin even though I never have done so. My doc is a client and we are in this journey together. I know I'll eventually pin so thanks for letting me know that it is effortless. What have you noticed about your E2 numbers pinning with a lower dose and with your current frequency?

So yesterday I started what I am going to do for the next four weeks - 50mg test-c on Monday morning and Thursday afternoon. At the end of four weeks, I'll have more blood work and see where I'm at. I'm going to a client who happens to be an MD and we are both learning from this. He now has 4...

A recent synopsis of my testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) journey with test-C: Blood work on March 21, 2012 - after 4 weeks of 100mg test-C once a week: Total test - 1,092 ng/dL Free test - 153.1 pg/mL Didn't get SHBG E2 - 50 pg/mL Then, at inexperienced doc's suggestion, I took a 4 week...

OK, if you read the prior posts you'll see that I took a 4-week time out after having 4 weekly injections of 100mg test-C. Had blood work done last week after 4 weeks off and here are my numbers: total t - 406 ng/dL free t - 62.2 pg/mL SHBG - 44 mnol/L E2 - 18 pg/mL So my total t went from...

I'll ask an entirely different question: how long has it been since you've taken a vacation from your training? What I read in your post are symptoms of over-training. I've struggled with the practice of rest and recovery in my fitness journey. I understood the concept but it was the behavior...

Life is much simpler when you are paying with your own dollars. I don't have time for my health insurance plan to catch up with what I want to do. I'll save them for the big medical costs. Money talks and bullshit walks. You should have no trouble finding someone to work with you in a...

Thanks again for taking the time to comment. Would appreciate from you or others your take on my lower T scores after 4 weeks of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) injections before beginning test C injections. Details in my initial post. It baffled my naturopath doc who gave me the Human...

Welcome, I'm a newbie here too and have recently begun my testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) journey. Based on my limited experience and given your low T number, I'm wondering if you would respond favorable - as I did - with a low starter dosage of test C. I did 100mg weekly and had a good...

The Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) was done for 4 weeks in January after the first blood work of 2012. At the end of 4 weeks of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG), I did the second blood work and my test number declined. Then I waited 6 weeks with only supplements before begining 100mg of...

My TRT journey Hello, I'm fairly new to this forum and have thus far just been a lurker soaking up the excellent knowledge shared by others. It's been very helpful as I begin my testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) journey. A little background. I'm 57 years old. Bsed on lab work at...
