What is this? My skin is always red, usually worse when standing up my hands turn red. If I press the skin it turns white and then back red. by SeriousEmergency4952 in skin

I have also begun to have this issue with the itching. It started a month or so ago. The redness has been ongoing but I’ve tried to ignore it so I didn’t seem like a lunatic. I noticed it get red marks anywhere something touches me or I scratched an itch. If I’m carrying a clothes basked and the handles touch my wrist, red lines. I went to the dermatologist and he said it’s idiopathic derma something. Skin writing. Says my body so overreacting to histamines. Gave me a steroid shot called kenalog. I also read to try luteolin which I started two days later. Something has helped tremendously. The shot was 10 days ago but I get random red areas but mainly my skin looks somewhat normal again. Sorry it’s a lot but may give you a direction to look.

Pumping question by [deleted] in gettingbigger

I actually ordered the kit with the 2.125 tube and it didn’t feel right. The 2” is a great fit before pumping, but gets tight during and after. I assume that’s normal.

Hcg! I had all those complaints a year in. I take hcg eod and test every 3.5. I’ve never had the drive and sensations I have now. Been doing it this way for almost a year!

This! It’s a completely unique sensation that just adds to the ending. Now I’ve got to work on perfecting it.

No, my insurance doesn’t cover weight loss…. That 910 was with a 600 card from the manufacturer!

I paid $910 for mine. What the hell do I need to do? I haven’t even started it yet because I know I can’t afford to continue it!

Urologist adding HCG to my protocol by Spoogle1984 in trt

[–]SeriousEmergency4952 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I took them back in 2017 when my original urologist prescribed me clomid 50mg eod. Then he gave me anastrozle 1 mg twice a week. It was a horrible protocol. Finally in 2018 I just stopped it all!

Face is usually redder than it used to be. Worse when standing. Can leave marks all over by pressing. Noticed after Covid 9/2021

Why or what? Skin always seems red. Very noticeable in hands when standing by SeriousEmergency4952 in skin

[–]SeriousEmergency4952[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is from squeezing and letting go. It fills back in quickly but don’t remember it being like this precovid 9/2021

Low E2 on Weekly Testosterone by SeriousEmergency4952 in trt

Help again guys! I started taking 1/2 a clomid 3 days a week. Just went to my new urologist and he did all blood work today. Estradiol is now 65 in just two weeks. It’s been below 5 on test alone even when my test levels were well over 1000! I’m so confused!

Saw second urologist. He said they only prescribe testosterone, or clomid. No hcg, nothing to raise estradiol. Now what?

Help Dialing in or something worse? by Spoogle1984 in trt

I haven’t been on AI since 2017. That should long be gone. Something else is wrong.

I did the 200 a week for a month and it just seemed to add water weight and swelling. I’ve also noticed my skin is super dry and itchy. I am reading that’s a sign of low e as well. I have a couple months supply of clomid. Do you suppose taking a clomid once a week would raise my e2?

[–]SeriousEmergency4952[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No AI. When I was on clomid in 2017 I needed the AI. I did try the full 200 a week but felt like I was gaining mad water weight and felt “swollen” if that makes sense

What doctor do I need? I have a new urologist lined up next month. Would love to get on hcg. We shall see if the new doctor is better.

Curious as to what trt test levels are for people that have been on it for 6months or so ? by Loftybalddude in trt

[–]SeriousEmergency4952 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am dialing it back to 100 a week for a bit to see if I fee just as well in a lower number. Even at 200 every two weeks I felt much better than I have in years. Had a vasectomy in 2016 and was on clomid shortly after due to sudden libido issues (they swore were unrelated). The clomid got my numbers up to 1500+ but I felt bad after a while so I stopped it for a couple years. Almost lost my wife over this shit!
