I started to sweat more after getting on TRT.

thats about it other than feeling better and getting more random boners!

 

[j2048b]

see whats weird is as of now, even without testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), i have been getting night sweats, and have to crank up the ac !

seems hormonal to me?

so i might sweat even more? geesh the horror;the horror;

and more random boners, not a bad thing, unless your at work, on the bus/subway, at the market, or outside the home!! oh their poor eyes!

Is there a side effect of high RBC? How will I know when it's time to donate blood?

 

[fedmax123]

not sure about the HCG but

Why the night sweats??
I am currently on 200mg/wk. Test E and last night I woke up in a puddle of sweat?

High estrogen can cause night sweats...

For RPG donate every 3 months, they will check the count when you donate and let you know what it is. Mine was 51 (high-normal) last time and it ha been 5 months since my last time, if I keep up on it it's normal

I get the night sweats sometimes, but nothing too bad. The only thing I've really noticed is that the hair on my neck is growing back faster. I used to shave my neck every 2-3 weeks and it would stay nice and clean. Now, I have to every week. That's about it. I haven't had any acne or bloating or anything I would define as being a "negative side effect".

My nails grow fast as hell. Other than that, all good.

I've been on 400 IUs 3 times a week and the only side affect I've had is very mild stiffness/swelling in my fingers when I first wake up in the morning, but it goes away immediately after I get up.

 

[j2048b]

well hopefully with estrogen being held at a certain point the night sweats will stop, and i wont feel like i wet the bed all the time, only when im drunk and my boner is sticking straight up! haha what a water fall!

Lower Voice here. I play guitar and sing- not for a living thank God!
I cant hit the high notes like I used to. No problem, i just tune my guitar down one octave and keep going.
Nails do grow faster as well. Didnt realize it until Tide mentioned it. I gotta cut them things all the time now.
Benefits outweigh the sides all day long.

Exactly that's what paper bags with cutout holes are for.

Truthfully there are a lot. But this has more to do with getting everything dialed in. For me the test levels are the easy part, the estrogen control is where I have a problem. I keep having to switch AI's and start over. Dont be afraid of extra bloodwork, it helps. I think I just adapt to AI's after a few months. I keep trying. Just watch your sex drive, watch for acne and ask yourself how you are feeling, then figure out why. I have been to high and to low in estrogens and had the same feelings. Also, some people have reactions to certain compounds. For example cypionate might make you break out but Propionate might be fine.

very good info, thanks,

how would one know besides acne if cyp is bad or better than prop? tired ness or any thing like that?

if I were you I would get off the HCG monotherapy.. It doesn't seem to be working! I mean you went from 206 TT to 280 TT after four weeks! That Blows!
At least throw in some adex and you might see a little more results, but I would just wait until you are ready to do Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) the right way..

the cyp vs prop is only a example. I strongly believe to start with the least amount of substances NECCASSARY

some kind of test
hcg
AI
then if you are having a reaction, you change one. So if you are having lets say a rash. you can change the Aromatase inhibitor (AI) or change the type of test.

Also some reactions can just be caused by the improper dose.
If you are taking only HCG and at a 260 test, fix it. The differnce will be a huge improvement to your quality of life. I was at 280 tested a year later at 186. Once you get around 500 I experienced much improvements. I even had side effects I did not even know where associated. now once you get stable in 900 range, well it is twice as good as 500

I tell all my clients that a minimum of 800-1000 is the optimal therapeutic range. Its simply where you need to be. But you cant do it while taking no Aromatase inhibitor (AI) and watching your estrogen skyrocket, or not using hcg and watching your sack shrivel. Test, hcg, and Aromatase inhibitor (AI) are the three staples of any therapeutic protocol and if they are not all synergistically composed together, than you are not on hrt..... Simple as that.
