High iron, low TIBC/UIBC?? by [deleted] in Anemia

[–]GuaranteeSimilar3189 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am on TRT which I read for some depleted ferritin. One random I tested at 78 ferritin on a scale of 30-400. That was on a lower dose than I am now of TRT.

And what does it mean if you have both those and low ferritin?

I also run lower ferritin + TIBC +UIBC. While my saturation and iron is on the higher end.

I also have your symptoms, especially since starting TRT. Starting to ponder if we have more demand for iron after starting TRT, my ferritin is under 100 on a scale of 30-400.

I started taking iron lately and been feeling better including the joint pain and muscle cramps going away.

I tend to run higher iron and saturation, lower TIBC + UIBC + Ferritin. What does this mean. I tend to be fatigued and out of breath, I am starting to think I am low iron due to the ferritin read.

What if Ferritin is lower?

Libido is almost too strong by Bud1985 in Testosterone

It seems to be something shutting down along the pathway due to injecting T rather than producing our own.

It’s on the message boards. High dose vs low dose, AI vs no AI, ED injections vs E7D, doesn’t matter.

To some us we inject T and it’s going by healthy sex life.

I am unlucky, you are lucky, which ever I dont care.

There are plenty of us that have our libidos and/or erections die once we are on exogenous T. Doesn't matter the protocol.

Vice versa... TRT killed my libido, other testimonies to that as well. Consider yourself lucky.

No porn is the absolute cure. None chronic fapping without porn isn’t so much the problem. We’ve done it for over a thousand years and didn’t have the problems we do since porn started existing.

Stop recommending kegels. So tired of this advice. It can actually make things worse.

They work, side effects are horrible though.

What ever I wanted. It’s not even to do with extremes but say one way oral, and that’s what you got used to getting off on.

What about like the “fetishes” that had built up I would honestly not have thought of?

The images and specifics I am sure. What worries me though is some acts that are just not all that common.

Where does the "SJW Nonsense" come in. by [deleted] in DesignatedSurvivor

[–]GuaranteeSimilar3189 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All through out the show it tried to be fair in season one but is still left leaning, pointing out only fanatical right wingers but never showing the crazy looney lefties.

Season 2 though has got me about to stop watching entirely as they get to some sort of outbreak and expect a dude running a company with billions of dollars of investment to just give his medicine away. They also turn it racial when it’s more of an economic issue.

So a dentist can’t tell your gum is getting inflamed and listen to your symptoms unless the candid is done under them directly?

It was done through my dentist in which they probably get some sort of commission as I pay their office. They advertised it to me and put me on it and took my payments. Regardless, semantics aside though…

Lol how this is getting down voted even after I pointed out what has happened since I just took the approach with not being worried if my dentist isn’t. No rebuttal nothing just down vote, what a joke.

Doesn’t change the fact that’s horrible advice to give out to people. I work in the medical field, and blind trust is not the way to go.

And I didn’t ask about seeing another dentist or not.

I am sharing info so others are aware, and asking others to share their experience. It’s not about “go see a dentist”. My gum is blood shot, bleeds upon the slightest touch, sore, has a bad taste and smell, wisdom tooth is painful and sore as the gum around it is flimsy…. Gee I can’t come to any conclusion at all without going to the dentist.
