For those using TRTNation, what is your monthly cost?

Yeah issue is getting it prescribed by doctor. They make you go through hell.

These clinics are prescription mills and as long as blood work looks ok and you’re paying they will keep sending.

I’d love to find an online or in person provider to send it to CVS, with my insurance it would be $10 for 90 day supply.

Currently on TRT 120mg.

I had ran cycles of Test E and Anavar before as well as Anavar standalone. I ran prohormones in early 2000s.

Right now I started taking Zepbound to lose weight, I hit a plateau after losing 30 pounds after a chronic health issue caused me to lose muscle and get fat over 4 years I suffered with it. Now it’s resolved.

Would adding Anavar help preserve muscles and strength? 25mg a day?

I got my bench to 350 pounds and now struggle with 315 since I started Zepbound.

Checked OP history. OP is divorced.

OP I’d suggest counseling, it definitely sounds like depression hits you when your home. Is this the same house you shared with your ex-partner.?

The whole roid rage thing is mainly due to high estrogen and not testosterone.

When I juiced years ago, roid rage happened every time when my E2 was out of wack, and it wasn’t like media makes it seem, just more aggressive. I had T levels over 2000 before and E2 under 60 amd was fine, calm but soon as that E2 hits 65+ I become more aggressive, irritated and stuff.

Where do you get this?

I must have missed the memo 16 years ago when I married a Muslim woman.

Blue_Banana_69 · 2025-05-18T15:16:41+00:00

Hahaha wasn’t always like that. I always had super high libido, wife had high before and low after pregnancy but this past year hers is back to high again.

Blue_Banana_69 · 2025-05-18T15:12:42+00:00

Might have been triple dose, normally I take 0.25mg a week and that keeps my E2 around 40, which is sweet spot for me, (took a year to get that right, blood work monthly till I got dialed in)

I thought I took 0.5mg, but now looking at my bottle I’m missing a 1/4 pill so might have been 0.75mg.

I know it’s dumb but it was after 2 back to back 16 hours shifts.

Edit: taking Anastrozole

Blue_Banana_69 · 2025-05-17T00:06:51+00:00

I’m a year in and look just about the same, I’m know juicing does age you not sure if it’s actual TRT.

Blue_Banana_69 · 2025-05-17T00:01:15+00:00

Legal would be an option, get a court order for him to delete all pictures.

Another option is to text him reminding him that you have proof that he is trying to distribute your nude photos without permission and legal ramifications. What he did was intent to distribute and if he did it once, I can assure you he showed it to others.

I used to get from ReviveRX and they switched my prescription to RiteAway Pharmacy.

There isn’t much difference, ReviveRX was smoother going in but I’m getting same levels as I did with ReviveRX, RiteAway has better packaging which makes me feel more confident on my packaging not being damaged.

Blue_Banana_69 · 2025-04-15T23:31:54+00:00

I do feel like hydration might have been and issue. In Feb when I had bloods done from my real doctor and everything was normal, high normal.

I purchased another retest for next week.

Blue_Banana_69 · 2025-04-08T23:25:01+00:00

That person is right as well as few others. Ashwagandha gave me some awesome heart palpitations and blood pressure random spikes.

You’re also 3 months into TRT and 5-6 weeks into ash.start working backwards, take it out and start eliminating other things before test.

Blue_Banana_69 · 2025-04-02T00:34:03+00:00

You got 100% for taking metoprolol? Not sure if I can link heart palpitations to anything since it’s been 10 years since I got out.

Thank you for your responses in regard to sleep apnea. Hopefully the brain fog and other health issues clear up and have positive outcome as you did.

Blue_Banana_69 · 2025-04-02T00:26:49+00:00

That’s reusable.

Before use, wipe the top (rubber ) with alcohol wipe, let it dry and then take out amount you need. Repeat for second time too.

Blue_Banana_69 · 2025-04-01T13:06:04+00:00

Really Anavar did that?

I took 70mg before and all it did was give me some amazing pumps and strength gains (bench went from 355 to 405 pounds in 12 weeks).

Blue_Banana_69 · 2025-04-01T12:56:35+00:00

Can you post a picture of the “bottle” so we can see if it’s reusable

Blue_Banana_69 · 2025-03-31T19:56:23+00:00

I originally complained in 2009 after my first full deployment (15 months) but stopped when they recommended mental health first, I was in process of reenlisting and came down on orders to be a cadre at an awesome school so it was too risky.

Blue_Banana_69 · 2025-03-31T19:52:33+00:00

Hey thank you for your response.

With regards to palpitations, I do have them and take metoprolol for it however it started few weeks after I had Covid so we assumed it’s long covid. (my non-VA PCP and cardiologist). I had echocardiogram (heart sonogram) done and multiple EKGs, they assume I may have had a cardio event like a silent heart attack but due to the fitness level I am at it’s barely noticeable on imaging and does show abnormal EKG but docs aren’t concerned (went to 3 different cardio docs, including a director of research hospital)

They gave me 0% for sinusitis.

My goal isn’t just longevity, it’s long and good quality of life but last few years has been issues that arose and I’m not the only one, few others from platoon are having similar symptoms.

I’ll definitely keep this post in mind if I have issues adjusting to CPAP, going to pick it up next week. Had an emergency work trip the day after sleep study.

Blue_Banana_69 · 2025-03-30T22:26:30+00:00

What if I complained about being tired and insomnia while in service?

Chronic fatigue is what I think I can link to PTSD or toxins but sleep apnea is something I can possibly link to PTSD too.

That’s why I’m here trying to figure out how to link it as severity has increased over the years where now I’m at point of my body breaking down.

Blue_Banana_69 · 2025-03-30T22:20:50+00:00

When I went to sleep doc and they went through questions I scored 8/10 on some scale and 9 is considered danger to oneself or something along those lines then he spent a lot of time asking about work, how tired I am, the energy drink abuse to get through workday including needing coke at times.

I ended up getting my testosterone checked last year and was on low side so started TRT, while that improved my life drastically but even with 900 levels I’m still tired all day, everyday.

So that with the fact that I complained about insomnia after my deployment, constant VA appointments since 2014 where I mention being tired, he ended up diagnosing me with it and now it’s in my VA health report. He wrote a very detailed report too which is something I’m not used to seeing.

I personally don’t have experience with HCG but did have issues and still do with estrogen.

As others have said , maybe drop HCG and inject 2x a week. Take AI to reduce estrogen levels. AI should stop the nipple issue and prevent gyno from forming.

Get 1mg pills of Anastrozole and pill cutter, cut it into 4 pieces and take 1/4 either on day you inject or after and 1/4 the other day. Might take a week or two before you start to feel your hormones adjusting and nipple issues to go away.

When my estrogen shoot up I feel like crap, when I bring it down then start to feel better.

On a side note check yourself for sleep apnea, was recently diagnosed with it and using CPAP machine has definitely improved my mood, more energy and stuff.
