OL HEADS..HOW MANY OF YOU ARE ON TRT/HGH

Just got tested by my PCP and I have very low T. Had to do 2 blood test for insurance purposes. Did all that and I have to meet my deductible before they will start paying for my injections. Basically this will be out of pocket for me as my deductible is pretty high.

They have me taking 1mL Testosterone Cypionate every two weeks to start. Today will be my first injection. 2 doses cost me $35.00.
From what I have been reading, a lot of guys are doing weekly injections. After this first month, I'll get w/ my doc to see if we will start on weekly injections. If I'm going to be doing this treatment, I want to make sure I'm geting the best results.

I have been extremely sluggish and knew something was up. Finally got my ass tested to confirm that I have been dealing w/ Low T.

I'll update this thread in a few months w/ an update on how I feel.
Strange your PCP has you doing it every 2wks when the half-life of Cypionate is 8 days. Should be taken every wk.
 
....because he has me taking it every 2 weeks?
Mood swings - For the 1st week, the ratio of test to estrogen is high; test will be relatively high compared to estrogen. You feel upbeat, focused and have a greater sense of wellbeing. 2nd week, the amount of test drops by half (half-life). You don't feel as upbeat and focused as the 1st week and you usually experience an increase in estrogen due to some of the test being converted to estrogen.

Man tits - With the increase in estrogen, you retain water and, if you're not taking an estrogen blocker, you eventually start getting gyno (man tits).

This is why you should be taking it every week and you should be taking an estrogen blocker.

Thanks for the input. I'll discuss w/ my doc

Also..... by introducing exogenous testosterone into your system, your pituitary gland is going to shut down what little natural test production that you did have... fuck around and get caught with no exogenous testosterone and no natural.... talk about feeling like a lil hoe...:oops:. :lol:
 
Isn't the majority of the inside of your refrigerator made of plastic? Ice cubes trays made of plastic? The bottles most supplements come in are plastic.
That's part of the problem. YOu can offset that by storage. Plastic is in your lungs, nutts, oceans etc.


Reducing plastic in the world and at home​

Because plastics are in almost every part of modern life, it’s extremely difficult to eliminate exposures, Sathyanarayana acknowledges, but she has found ways to reduce her own.

She carries a stainless-steel water bottle and avoids plastic water bottles. She doesn’t microwave food in plastic containers and only uses glass, wood, or metal kitchen items, including mixing bowls, spoons, cutting boards, and food storage containers.

In her home, Sathyanarayana also takes her shoes off to avoid tracking in dust from the outside and uses a HEPA filter to capture particles from the air.

The Program on Reproductive Health and the Environment at UCSF offers additional tips to help minimize exposure to toxic chemicals, like those sometimes found in microplastics.

But Sathyanarayana admits there are some things that are tough to relinquish. For example, though most of her clothes are made of non-plastic cotton and wool, some of her clothes are made of plastic fibers, like the spandex, polyester, and nylon in her activewear.

“The reality is we can’t avoid plastics,” she says. “No one can.”

That’s why the bulk of the responsibility for reducing microplastics exposure is on governments and manufacturers, Woodruff says. For example, regulatory bodies could require washing machines to include filters that catch microplastics coming from clothing. Or even better, clothing manufacturers could use less plastic, she says.

But there’s still a lot of research and discussion that needs to happen to help policymakers understand the best way forward, Ross says.

“I don’t want to demonize plastics; they’re quite important,” Ross says, adding that they have been lifesaving in health care settings. “But do we really need our vegetables wrapped in plastic at the grocery store? Let’s have a conversation about what we really need plastic for.”

Always choose glass or stainless steel to store food.

Man I'm just seeing this, HELL NO! Hit me up, or looks for cellularhealth. They fucking robbing you!
 
I got tested recently and my T was 200 points higher than 2 years prior. The doctor couldn’t recommend TRT in my case but it was good to know that the changes I’ve made worked. My vitamin D levels were also high which is important in testosterone production. I recommend taking D3+K2 supplements daily since most of us are low.

You do realize that the article you posted disputes your point? You say; I can offset it by storage, but the article says the bulk of responsibility for reducing microplastics exposure is on governments.

Don't get me wrong reduce the use of plastics just off of trying to save the planet let alone for health reasons. But if I can't get away from it from cleaning to wiping my ass, we're fcuked regardless.

Control what you can control. I can control what I eat, drink, and store my food. Overall, ORM says I can't avoid the Sun either, but I can limit how I'm exposed. That's it.
 
Lol a year later now my dumbass knows this answer...

1cc of testosterone cypionate every Sunday, then a Estrogen blocker in pill form every Tuesday to make sure I don't get gyno (man boobs)
You start your weekly injections on sunday? Is starting sunday better than Monday? I'm starting on weekly injections.
 
SARMS.... I'm running this stack right now along with my TRT... This combo right here .. 15lbs of lean muscle in a month .. only sides so far is that MK-677 makes you want to eat everything in the fridge every time you open it ..
Injections like the peptides or by mouth? The peptides are being released in stacks and combos too. Give me some background, you go through doctors?

I'm confused. Who's paying $35 for a dose or 2? That's ridiculous. I pay $55 for a 10ml vial at 250mg/ml (250mg of test per ml of solution). If I keep my dose to 250mg, i.e. one shot of 250mg of test, I can get 10 doses per 10ml vial.
Aye where yall get it from? DM me if necessary. Thanks.
 
Sarms are oral. I use a 1ML dropper and dose accordingly. Only thing i use the Dr. for is to monitor my blood panels..
How are your liver enzyme levels? I forgot the ones I had but I ran it for a month and my NP was imploring not to use it and just use the TRT.

My boy recommended taking milk thistle and after running my blood panels she said she couldn't tell if I was on it or not
 
i got back on my TRT regimen on wednesday. now back to having high energy levels and lifting everything in sight.
slapped 4 plates on the T bar row this morning and that shit felt so damn good.
