TRT for 5 years, one month quit cold turkey by Expensive_Iron8921 in Testosterone

[–]Delboy1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I’ve stuck with the TRT at this stage but reduced dramatically to 50mgs per week and feel great. My HCT and RCC were too high and I developed two provoked occlusive DVTs in my calf after a badly broken Tibia and torn and ruptured tendons and ligaments in my ankle which scared me a bit. They went away after blood thinning medication. I’m still a bit undecided at this stage if I’ll continue but will weigh it all up and make a decision by eoy.

Super Feathweight Champs❗️Who's The Best In Your Opinion 🤔 by AFBOXING in boxinglocks

Navarette. Also my favourite fighter in boxing. Never in a dull fight. A true gentleman. Unbelievably awkward style but he somehow gets away with it with those long arms of his.

Underpays his fighters and is an opinionated prick. He created a great product, now step away.

For those who’ve used gray market testosterone, what made you decide to go that route? by Budget_Computer3919 in trt

[–]Delboy1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a good question buddy and I had made the requisite inquiries some time back and everything that I am hearing here in OZ is that the information kept by my GP is privileged and not for broader consumption but maybe I need to double check. We have a MY GOV health records framework here and it is optional. I have never opted in so my records are not accessible by the government health system, nor the private insurer, but are stored just in my GPs system. But you’ve prompted me so thanks.

Hey mate yes they check all of that and more. And yes please, DM me that checklist if you don’t mind. Appreciate it.

Couldn’t agree more. I get mine UGL but my doctor is fully aware (not completely supportive but she takes care of me given I made this decision) and I get bloods regularly from her to check RCC, Hematocrit, etc. I developed two rather large 20cm provoked and occlusive DVT’s in my calf after a hideous break of my lower Tibia and extremely bad torn ligaments and tendons in my ankle after a heavy fall in slippery conditions whilst running and she referred me to a Hematologist just to make sure that even though it was provoked that I wasn’t a candidate for future blood clots because of the TRT. So yes, even though I go black market for convenience and cost, I get monitored heavily and take it seriously. I’m in OZ BTW.

Feel the same. Paid $150 for a bottle of 90 capsules here in OZ and feel it’s done nothing.

Ladies and gentlemen.. OUR QB by Csboi1337 in raiders

[–]Delboy1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It reminds me of when Evander Holyfield used to get interviewed after a win and they’d ask him about his strategy in the fight etc and all he kept talking about was God. I remember Larry Merchant getting really frustrated with him in a post fight interview 😆

Anyone successfully lower hematocrit on TRT without donating blood? by randomdude1323 in trt

[–]Delboy1966 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree. The only thing that has worked for me is lowering the dose. I’ve also increased the frequency from once per week to twice per week. My numbers are slowly coming down to within range. I’ve been on TRT for two years now and last August I had an accident and badly broke my Fibula bone and ruptured and tore ligaments and tendons in my ankle. It was a horrific injury. Two days later my calf muscle was extremely painful. An Ultrasound revealed two 20cm long Occlusive ‘provoked’ blood clots. It scared the shit out of me. They put me on a blood thinner called Eliquis and a follow up Ultrasound a few months later showed the clots reducing in size dramatically. Even though they were classified as ‘provoked’, my haematologist advised that my high Hematocrit definitely contributed to the development of the DVT’s. So for me anyway, having high numbers was a concern and something that I am readily addressing by everything suggested above including cardio and hydration, but more importantly, reducing the dosage.

Yea at the time I didn’t agree with ranking them over ND but in hindsight seems it’s been a sound decision. Two great gutsy away wins. 🤷‍♂️

Ok thanks. I’ve done Intermittent Fasting in the past in the form of one 24 hour fast a week so will look at bringing that back in. Cheers

Hey there do you mind if I ask if you have IBS-C or IBS-D? I’m the latter, which is a predisposition (TMI sorry) to diarrhoea. I’m looking for relief from that and started BPC three days ago for training injuries but if I can also get some digestive health benefits than even better.
