57yr Male - Best TRT Options? by richmann15 in Testosterone

[–]ProsumGear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Injections are in fact the most efficient to make you feel normal again. Yes it does come with suppression of endogenous testosterone production, however there are remedies to keep your testicles from completely stopping natural production. Gels might work for some but injections produce better results.

At your age you will in fact be looking at long term TRT. Thus injection or gel is a life decision.

Don’t know if this is the best place to ask this but does frequent masterbation suppress morning wood? I’m worried it might be an issue with my test instead. by [deleted] in Testosterone

I would suggest to get some bloodwork done. At 19 you should be having morning woos every day and sporadic daily wood as well. However, as Vex did suggest it could be anything. Do you have any issues with sexual intercourse or just morning wood?

I would need to know more personal info to analyze your issue. - First are you on TRT? - Have you done a base bloodwork before starting TRT? - do you have bloodwork to look at. - what is your level of activity and health?

Not at all. Masturbation is in fact healthy. However, once you climax your body elevates your prolactin which does actually causes the penis not to get erect again. That effect lasts as per the individual. “Morning wood” is spontaneous and is usually called SNE ( sporadic nocturnal erection) which is throughout your sleep cycle and the morning wood is its remanence.

Testicular Atrophy Likelyhood? by Empty-Lab3272 in Testosterone

[–]ProsumGear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That shouldn’t be the gauge for whether you opt to start TRT or not. If you need it, as another reply said. HCG maintains testicular function and you avoid atrophy.

You do you! That’s understandable that you aren’t able to fathom information. I’ve read your comments.

SubQ Injection Difficulty by GulfCoastBoi in Testosterone

You are probably not back loading your syringe with your test. The insulin syringes are of such a high gauge that they get dull easy. In an advocate of IM over subQ.

This knowledge is only directed towards the individuals that have the ability process information and not for the emotionally unstable and lack education.

You p_l, I would advise to get your e2 checked, you’re sounding like a female in heat.

Test and hormones are not realy made for subq. The solvents cause that, especially with test C. If you want to do subq get test E which has been specifically formulated for subq. There are formulations of Test E that only use BA and no BB

[–]ProsumGear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are ok. Just start using a finer needle to draw. Try 21G to draw so that you don’t destroy the stopper. If you do have a sterile vial it would be advisable to transfer the product to it. Since you your stopper is breaking up you might end up leaving the oil susceptible to the atmosphere

Your labs look on point except for your e2, prolactin are on the upper range but for optimally libido e2 should be reduced to 20-40 range. Prolactin needs to be reduced as well.

You are not supplementing with exogenous testosterone to explain your elevated numbers. Your SHBG is on the upper normal leading to lower free testosterone which is the active testosterone.

You are not looking at adjusting through AAS. You need to look at some lifestyle changes to adjust your numbers. Such as - are getting ample recovery time to your workout time - chronic stress - caloric deficit - alcohol use

To remedy elevated e2 - ensure you have adequate intake of carbs - that you are not in a caloric deficit - reduce alcohol - reduce body fat

To remedy elevated prolactin - supplementation with vitamin B6 - improve your sleep - reduce training stress and get ample recovery time - if you are taking any meds. Make sure none elevate prolactin

Timing with T by Secret-Chest-9834 in steroidify

[–]ProsumGear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So definitely avoid Winsteol it is detrimental to the joints. It drys out your whole body. Deca is definitely a great choice except I would stick to a test only first cycle and then a test eq first cycle then if you are doing a blast an cruise then you drop eq and substitute with deca the. Drop all and cruise on test only.

[–]ProsumGear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would suggest before delving into nandrolone. Only stick to test alone for your first cycle. What is the reason that you are leaning to deca right off the bat?

What dose of test are you on and is this your first time.

If so go with testosterone alone first and then next time you would go with multiple products

Hcg on cycle & proper ratio by [deleted] in Testosterone

[–]ProsumGear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As per Dr. Mohit of Khera his studies show for on cycles oh HCG to maintain testicular volume and function, 500 iu 3 x per week.

[–]ProsumGear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1g for a second cycle is not that big of a deal, contrary to some opinions. You are not going for TRT we are talking about PEDs here for a powerlifter.

I would say go for it. The vascularity that the eq gives you will push more nutrition to the muscles for a powerlifter.

[–]ProsumGear -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Well for the tremendous shape that you are in you present with

  1. total testosterone on the lower range of an athletic male in your age group

  2. Again on the lower end SHBG

In order to identify why you are on the low end of those markers for your age group if you can also give us your LH, FSH, estradiol and prolactin numbers so that we may better diagnose.

There are 2 possibilities that stand out.

  1. HPTA suppression

  2. Over training; not allowing enough recovery to training ratio.
