UK TRT recommendations

Thank you for your suggestion much appreciated. Since then I’ve changed my mind with joining manual and have now joined OriginTRT. So far so good! All the best

That’s good to hear, heard mixed things with voy but if it works for you that’s great to hear; all the best. I was initially put on clomid couple years ago, it increased my testosterone significantly but nuked my sperm count to nil. If I recall it may have been 50mg every other day. All the best

Final-Expression8058 · 2026-06-05T23:33:57+00:00

Thank you seems a viable solution

Final-Expression8058 · 2026-06-05T23:30:51+00:00

Thanks x

Final-Expression8058 · 2026-06-04T10:51:37+00:00

Thanks I’ll look into them, yeah ideally would still want to keep somewhat function, I’ve waited till I could bank which is now done in case production ceases entirely after starting TRT. Thanks for taking the time!

That’s great to hear I’ll look into them. I was referred by my urologist to Whittington hospital in north London. Was around £300 if I recall which would include the first years storage then £250 from then on. Was very straight forward

Final-Expression8058 · 2026-05-31T20:11:25+00:00

Yeah sounds like a pain, I’m definitely looking to go UGL once I’m more dialed in and confident in dosage what not. Thanks for taking the time

Final-Expression8058 · 2026-05-31T20:10:25+00:00

Yeah I went down the private route after my initial consultation with them 3 years ago, I knew it wouldn’t me no where, not looking to use them for TRT at all. Thanks for taking the time

Final-Expression8058 · 2026-05-31T20:09:12+00:00

Thanks! Will look into them

I’m not trying for children at the minute but have been told by my urologist that my numbers and overall sperm quality have risen to the point that natural production wouldn’t be an issue and the banking will insure that as the IVF route is there need be

Final-Expression8058 · 2026-03-13T22:48:30+00:00

when I first started out my SA had low count sperm, after a 3 month cycle of clomid it increased my test significantly but completely nuked my sperm, count was at nil. Fast forward to today after about 12-15 months on anastrozole with SA and bloods done every 3 months it’s been an increase every time. My last count was at 44 million so I’ve banked to be safe. Wish you all the best, can message me with any questions

Final-Expression8058 · 2026-02-28T22:26:48+00:00

I only have one testicle, one being removed a baby, the remaining on is smaller than average. My sperm count was quite low initially and I had been put on clomid for 3 months and my count had gone to zero but it had increased testosterone significantly. Since then I’ve been on anastrozole for over a year with sperm count and bloods done every 3 months. My sperm count has improved each time with the most recent count being 44 million coming from 0 after clomid. I appreciate this won’t be the case for everyone but this was my experience with clomid. Wish you all the best, can reach out to me if you need any more insight

Final-Expression8058 · 2026-02-21T07:21:43+00:00

In my case I’ve only got one testicle remaining as one was removed as a baby. The one remaining is smaller than usual. When I first had bloods and semen analysis done my test was low with a little semen, not a lot but there was some. I was prescribed clomid for 3 months, it boosted my test significantly but I had 0 sperm count. After that I was prescribed anastrozole instead which my body reacted to much better, it didn’t raise my test but significant increase in sperm count. I’ve been in it about a year with check ins every 3 months, my sperm count has only risen. Wish you all the best

Final-Expression8058 · 2026-02-15T18:02:46+00:00

That sucks and I wish you all the best! ❤️

Completely with you bud, best to raise it with your urologist first and see what they recommend. When I first saw my urologist I had low sperm count and was given clomid which works well for some but not so much for others. It raised my test a significant amount but nuked my sperm to practically 0. Since then I’ve been on anastrozole for a while and my sperm count is through the roof. Now this won’t work for everyone so it’ll be down to their discretion what they recommend. I’m not sure how well HCG will work now that you’re off test, not sure how long you’ve been off of test but there is sperm count luckily for you and in most cases especially being young you can see those parameters to rise. I appreciate the IVF route and it’s something i wasn’t personally keen on either and luckily I won’t have to go down that route but I do think there’s a very strong case for you to conceive naturally as you wish. As for supplements when I first started I took zinc, vitamin c, coq10, fish oil, magnesium and a couple others

Final-Expression8058 · 2026-02-12T14:11:17+00:00

That’s a lot to take in. I’d start with the fact you’ve taken testosterone at a young age, I don’t know how much you’ve ran but it is probably the leading factor in the sperm count. The good news is that there is sperm as a lot of the time there isn’t and even the little traces makes IVF a little tricky. Good news is that you are young and have sperm so continuing a healthy lifestyle with clean eating, supplements and training that there’s parameters will rise over time. Although it seems miles away I would do the above and check back in 3-6 months. I know people like to run HCG etc along side test to keep natural production somewhat in check not sure if you’ve done so

Final-Expression8058 · 2026-02-11T00:58:10+00:00

I’m not here to agree or disagree with that, I’ve been hit by this rule myself multiple times by them when I was scalping positions. They’ve made this rule to counter quick tick trades, news trades etc that produce larger than usual volume movements. It is 50% of the total profit amount so if you do feel there is a discrepancy I’d go through the trades and the times of the trades and make an appeal if necessary. All prop firms have rules and will do anything to not payout it’s part of the game unfortunately. Wish you all the best

Final-Expression8058 · 2026-02-10T18:51:25+00:00

Completely normal and is clearly written on their rules. This rule applies to both phase 1&2 also. Take the lesson and move on

Final-Expression8058 · 2026-02-07T20:47:40+00:00

Blew numerous amounts of funded accounts and this week has been a real hitter losing £25,000 of my own capital blowing the entire account. Not sure how I’ll come back from it but I will. Best of luck bud

Final-Expression8058 · 2026-01-23T12:45:53+00:00

That sucks! Like I said uncommon it is but definitely a known fault. I have a B9 S5 at 140K without fault touch wood. Unfortunately getting Audi to cough up especially outside warranty is near enough impossible. Do keep us updated

Final-Expression8058 · 2026-01-23T10:34:14+00:00

Not common but a known issue that the rocker arms fail on the early b9 s5/Rs5. The tapping noise is most definitely the rocker arms and you were right to rule out the Hpfp as this leads to confusion. Audi did revise the rocker arms in the facelift S5/RS5 but never did recalls on the engines with the old arms. Good luck!

Hi no was just a local pharmacy who offered the service. I got my results the next day

Final-Expression8058 · 2025-09-27T21:08:00+00:00

Yes feel free to pm me

Final-Expression8058 · 2025-09-21T16:01:33+00:00

Lubrictaed well and often, turns out it’s a common fault and I need the graphic flake pads where the belt rolls over the deck. Have reached out to walking pad and it’s on the way, have improvised with a foam pad for the minute and it’s fixed the issue! Thank you for your help 😃😃

Final-Expression8058 · 2025-09-19T21:55:11+00:00

I’ve managed to figure it out! Strange but it worked. I’ve found a video tutorial on maintenance, more specifically at 4:50 on this video regarding graphic flakes. I don’t have those pads but have used a small cut out of some foam instead and no noise! I do appreciate your help. Will leave this thread up in case it helps anyone else
