    Taking A Break While Abroad

    If you used HCG the whole time on TRT I see no reason to do a blast for PCT. The purpose is to keep your boys plump and functional if you have maintained them no reason to blast them. HCG is an LH mimic, the Clomid will cause you to produce your own high levels of LH.

    Help needed Burning, tingling feeling first cycle

    Are you taking an AI? I have the exact same thing when my estrogen is too high, in fact just starting to get it back under control right now in my current cycle, wasn't taking enough aromasin. Even at 250 mg your estrogen can get way too high, gotta take an AI to control it.

    My Pinnacle experience

    OK gonna bring this thread back to life and spice it up maybe! I commented earlier in this thread how timely it is to me since I am also currently on a cycle of a TRT dose of pharm test Cyp and close to 400 mg of Pinnacle NPP per week. I just got my bloodwork back and found something very...

    My Pinnacle experience

    What a timely thread for me. I am on a TRT dose of test Cyp and started Pinn NPP last week and have been ramping up to 120 mg EOD, today was my first day at that number. I assume it is too early to know much yet but I know I don't feel "normal" some days a little jacked up like too much coffee...

    No, not Red Cross once my hemoglobin couldn't be read by the machine (meaning it was over 19) she said "let's go get some of that iron out of you!"

    Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) guys that Donate Blood Regularly Need more Iron?

    Yes. Ferritin is basically iron storage, I think when u overproduce RBCs it uses up your ferritin Not sure never tested 100mg per week Go to another donation center out of town 1 1/2 years No, feel fine No they only want certain blood types for double RBC and I don't have it

    Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) guys that Donate Blood Regularly Need more Iron?

    I have problems controlling RBC on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) so I go as often as they let me and a few times more times than they know. I had a ferritin test and was pretty low so started taking iron pills all it did was increase the rate at which Hemo would rise. If you have...

    Blood panel midway trough my first cycle, please help

    Looks to me like your iron is super low, if I was on that much testosterone my RBCs, Hemoglobin and Hematocrit would be through the roof. Maybe anemic which would cause you to be tired and sluggish. Check into it

    Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) high Hematocrit

    Red Cross only checks hemoglobin and only up to 19.0 after that their machine just shows dashes. I have been in that range and they still took my blood, no problem
