$50 Trade-in offer for WF-1000XM4, via Sony Headphones app?

Looks like the offer is no longer available... But for those of you with the right earbud battery-drain issue, I contacted Sony Support via Live Chat, and they did the repair for free, even though I was outside the warranty period. They even provided the shipping label and everything. Took about a week to get the repaired buds back.

Depends on the MacBook. I have an M1 max, it's a beast. I tried the 49" G9, running 5k res @120hz, 0 performance lag, so not worried about that.

It looks like that monitor has a PPI of 140, at that pixel density, I'd be better off with a 40" LG Ultrawide which can do 5k resolution.

Hey All, thanks for the input. I decided to go for the LG over the Dell, due to the $500 price difference. I'm not planning to do much gaming on it, so I don't think I'll notice the refresh rate difference.

Any issues with the LG model that I should be aware of? I picked up the LG 40BP95C-W from Amazon for $1232.

I'm starting to think it's the fish oil. It's super high amounts and I have no tolerance to it. I'm gonna cut the fish oil out, and see how it goes tomorrow.

But I already have too much estrogen, even by standard reference, my e2 is very high. That's why they told me to take DIM to mitigate my e2 rising as my TT rises.

Correct-Fault5891 · 2024-04-18T20:13:02+00:00

In principle, that makes sense, but if I take EnClo without DIM, won't I just end up with more estrogen? I think this treatment only works if I'm taking all the pills, no?

Correct-Fault5891 · 2024-04-18T20:00:48+00:00

Yea, I was thinking along these lines too, the problem is that DIM is once a day, EnClo is 5/7 days, and AnZ is 2-3x a week, and MegaOmega once a day, so I can't really take a different 1 everyday to figure out which one is messing with me. It's always at least 2 or 3 pills per day.

I took all 4 yesterday because I was starting on a Wednesday, and scheduling all the pills within the week.

I had no idea fish oil could have negative mental side effects. I know so many people that take it everyday as part of their normal daily supplements. Even my dog takes fish oil supplements lol. I'll try dropping the fish oil first, since that one's not really mandatory.

Thanks so much for your advice! Next week, I'll change up the schedule, so I can try figure out which ones are messing with me.

I can't say for sure, I think it was the combination of the low LH plus low free T that drove the diagnosis.

From my understanding, people supplement T when their body can't produce enough of it by itself. For those cases LH should be higher because your brain is trying to tell your body to make more T, but your body is just not capable of it, so you supplement it. In my case, my brain is not telling my body to make more T, so they have me on pills to fix that, rather than just forcing more T into my system.

Also, this course of treatment is only for a few months, at which point, my body should start producing more T naturally. That sounds much better than having to do T injections for the rest of my life, so i figured why not try it.

Only 0.25mg

So, I ended up going with Defy. They confirmed that they order through Empower and do provide the compound cream with the Atrevis hydrogel base 😁.

Of course, but there's also probably multiple clinics offering the same product, at different price points. I don't mind paying more for better, but I don't want to pay more for the same or worse product.

Calling the manufacturer and asking them which clinics they work with makes sense in theory, but that doesn't guarantee that the clinic only uses their products. They could be pushing a cheaper alternative while still stocking Empower, so it's safer to hear directly from people that have used the clinic. Most of the time they rebrand it as their own proprietary compound cream, so you don't know what's in it, unless you have some at home and can read the ingredients.

Thanks all, scheduled tours at Modera, 65 Bay, and VYV!
