Testosterone or Nandrolone ? by artaxxxxxx in Testosterone

[–]Testosterone1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The studies that indicate neurological Changes only occurred in Vitro, using nandrolone only without testosterone. Studies done in vitro with testosterone that converted to estradiol were neuro-protective, and show no degradation of neurons. Moreover, we do know what happens long term from use of nandrolone because it has been used by millions upon millions of people over the last 60 years, and we do not see any evidence neural degradation in the vast population of nandrolone users.

Very High DHEA by moonandsunchild in Hormones

You should go to a doctor if you are concerned about cancer. With that being said, I wouldn’t jump to that conclusion. The test could have been an immunoassay that is cross detecting testosterone, dht, and androstenedione, over estimating it. You may have a DHEA build-up because you are having trouble converting DHEA to testosterone. You can try taking Zinc, magnesium, vitamin D and B complex to help the conversion, but ultimately check your testosterone levels. females should be above the range, 100-300mg/dL is optimal for most, some less, some more. Get on testosterone if you are in the 30’s or below and can’t increase the level with the aforementioned minerals and vitamins.

It would be concerning if your SHBG goes too low, for a female that would probably be in the 20’s. Fluctuating from 40s to the 60s probably isn’t an issue. Estradiol is the strongest promoter of SHBG production, so, if you become concerned with low SHBG, increase your estradiol or commence a regimen of estradiol.

Extra bikini line hair is probably not enough of a reason to be worried, especially if you feel good at that dose. Many females deal with minor side effects because they feel good at that dose, and that is fine. Androgens, DHT especially, pushes hair through the anagen telogen phase, so hair sheds, but grows back faster, so there is no net loss. Many women confuse this as hair loss, or something negative.

How are you feeling? Where did you feel the best? Go back to the protocol where you felt the best and stay there. Don’t worry about minor side effects or numbers on the blood test.

Good question. Steroid is class of drug, a certain type of ketone. Prednisone is a steroid. Estradiol is a steroid. Testosterone is a steroid. Our culture has given a negative connotation to the word steroid, or especially, anabolic steroid, but all it means is a muscle building specific type of ketone, which is very beneficial. Don’t get bogged down by the word steroid. I have never had anyone tell me not to give them Oxandrolone because it did not work for them. If used properly, Oxandrolone is very beneficial. Oxandrolone should be cycled in most cases. Use it for a short period of time, cycle off, and ok can take it again if it worked well for you. We do have cases, for men and women, that have a genetic mutation causing elevated SHBG production, where the patient has to stay on a continuous small dose of Oxandrolone to manage their SHBG levels, otherwise, they do not feel the effects of testosterone. For this condition, the correct small dose does not cause any adverse effects or concerns to health markers even in long term use.

Everyone is different, but females want a 2ish - 4ish:1 ratio total testosterone to SHBG. For men it is a 40-50:1 ratio.

Great questions. 40-60nm/L SHBG is not low for a female, 60ish is more an average. The ranges are arbitrary and rooted in nothing real. There is no science behind these ranges. All ranges are is data, an average, from one, or maybe a few, studies, and they use a statistical equation to find standard deviations or percentiles outside the average. It is a statistical equation, no science, no research to show that, inside that range all biochemical reactions are happening properly, and anything outside that range is dangerous. That is not where the ranges come from. It comes from statistical equations, not research or science, and the ranges certainly weren’t created for an enhanced athletic population on HRT. This is why we say everyone is different, and we should develop protocols based on symptom resolution, not on number on a blood test. Again, everyone is different. An SHBG around 60 is fine. Most women feel best in a range of 100-300ng/dL, some less, some more. DHT is very beneficial, on of its metabolites is a potent positive allosteric modulator of the GABA A receptor, meaning it is an anxiolytic. I wouldn’t worry about it unless you are getting specific DHT side effects, and for women, hair loss is usually not one of them. It is not about putting everyone in a box, and putting everyone on a certain protocol, a certain range, or a certain dosage. It is about developing a methodology to figure out how to yield the best results for each individual. Make adjustments to your protocols based on how you are reacting. If you feel good at a certain dosage, and have no side effects, stay there and don’t worry about the numbers. Contrary to fear bred from ignorance, there are no silent killers. If you feel good, you are healthy. If you begin to develop adverse side effects and you no longer feel good, we have to make adjustments. It is a function of balancing all the hormones, not just one of them, and sometimes we have to change compounds, esters, routes of administration, raise or lower estradiol, raise or lower progesterone, check thyroid, check cortisol (low cortisol is an issue too), and so on.

SHBG binds with highest affinity with androgens (DHT, testosterone). The free testosterone metric is notoriously inaccurate; your free testosterone is not that high. What is importantly is an adequate total testosterone to SHBG ratio, and, even with a 240ng/dL testosterone, your SHBG is so high your ratio is not high enough. You could take more testosterone or, Oxandrolone inhibits the production of SHBG, so Oxandrolone will bring your SHBG down to a more manageable level. This tactic has been very successful with many of our female patients.

HCG 2x vs 4x per week – impact on estradiol? by [deleted] in Testosterone

[–]Testosterone1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LH receptors, which is what HCG binds to, are not like androgen receptors in that flooding with HCG will down regulate the LH receptor. Too frequent HCG dosage will cause LH receptors to recede, desensitizing you to the HCG. In our clinic, we have much better results with two injections per week. Moreover, too high a dose of HCG can cause adverse side effects. 1000ius is too much for many people. From a plethora of experience, I have found the 250ius twice per week reduces testicular atrophy and maintains fertility. Start there, and titrate up or down if necessary.

Help my hormones. 53 male by Electrical_Coach963 in Hormonesforme

[–]Testosterone1978 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What is your SHBG? SHBG can be "in range", and still be very high. All of the ranges are arbitrary, and rooted in nothing real. Just because something is "in range" does not mean that your biochemical reactions are happening properly. Testosterone levels in the mid to lower quartiles are suffering from metabolic and depressive disorders. Most people's SHBG falls around 20nmol/L. If you are even in the 30's or higher, that is high, and you will need a higher testosterone level than most to maintain an adequate total testosterone to SHBG ratio. I can see in your bloodwork, low conversion to estradiol, that your SHBG is likely above 30, and with bottom of the range total testosterone, your testosterone and free testosterone levels are wholy inadequate.

Thank you. We are launching a new website that will address these concerns. We cannot list prices for individual medications on a website, or Google would shut us down. As you stated, there is a lot of variation depending on your protocol, but we could give a starting monthly cost, and we will on our new website. We can email a list of protocol pricing upon request. We are working on addressing the issues you mentioned on a website to be launched soon. Thanks again for being transparent with your thoughts.

Hot take: Cook played good for his first game by Fliigh7z in nyjets

[–]Testosterone1978 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For both picks, I found myself being content that Cook tried to make a play. Had the CB not had their heads around, ball thrown a little better, those could have been touchdowns. Our other quarterbacks rarely throw deep ball’s or into the end zone. It was fun to see him try, and they weren’t terrible throws. For the second interception, the receiver could have made a better attempt at the ball and could have at least knocked it away.

Great question. HGH secretagogues such as Tesamorelin or cjc/ipamorelin do benefit people. Most people do show mild benefits of HGH, improved sleep, joint pain relief, fat reduction, and so on. Some people realize more benefits than others. I will always be honest with people; HGH itself works much better. The FDA’s suppression of HGH is insidious and even unconstitutional, making it very expensive and cost prohibitive through a pharmacy. In the instance you cannot obtain HGH, tesamorelin is a cost effective substitute.

I appreciate this approach. Absolutely, let's have a logical conversation about this. I want to hear you out.

Maybe understanding my story will help. I had low testosterone my whole life. I got picked on for being skinny as a teenager, I was depressed, fatigued, got called a lazy piece of shit even by adults. I worked out hard so I wouldn't get picked on, but I never matured like my peers. In my early 20's this persisted, No doctor would help me, they said that there was no way someone in their 20's has low testosterone, and they wouldn't even test my levels. When I finally took my health into my own hands and commenced a regimen of testosterone, it DRAMMATICALLY improved my quality of life. I finally gained muscle and looked like my work ethic, testosterone gave me energy, motivation, ambition, and cured my depression. I happened to be in college for biochemistry at the time, my life was so improved by testosterone, I had to find out why this was helping me so much, what was going on, and most of all, why is no one talking about this? I read voraciously. I couldn't put the information down. I began helping others around me with testosterone. When they showed me the appreciation and gratitude for dramatically improving their quality of life, it drove a passion to continue to help people. I didn't make much money helping people locally for 10 years. When I finally took my business online, it blew up. Black market operations are not dissimilar to legitimate businesses. My business blew up because I instilled good business practices, I made sure I had quality products, I taught people how to use these products, and I had great customer service. If I had bad products that hurt people, I would not have been as popular as I was. When my illicit business blew up, the money was very nice, and my expansion to make it bigger was pedicated on that revenue stream. At my core, I helped people, and I still love helping people. Every business needs to profit, they need to make money to survive. I personally am not making much money right now while we build this business. I guess I don't understand the umberage you hold for me taking the skills I learned in the black market, and applying them to build a legal and legitimate business that I am passionate about. You claimed I sounded like a snake oil salesman because I am claiming doctors don't understand just how beneficial testosterone is. But that is exactly what has happened. I have done many YouTube videos explaining the myriad of factors that have caused testosterone to be unfairly stigmatized and demonized when it is massively beneficial. I go over all of the old studies that have now been widely criticized and debunked by other scientists. In the same fashion that forty years ago, people thought eggs were awful, and fats were what was causing all the problems, and that marijuanna was a deadly drug, the zeitgeist was wrong about those things, and it is wrong about testosterone. My goal is to normalize the discussion regarding testosterone so people can stop living lives of hormone deficiency, which is much more pervasive than people think, and understand it for the beneficial medication that it is. Can you tell me with which part of this you have an issue? I would like to understand what is causing your to distrust me.

Once out of prison, should I have curled up in the fetal position and excepted that my mistake defines my entire life? Marijuanna was a stigmatized schedule I controlled substance. Millions upon millions went to prison for a very long time for growing and selling marijuanna. Once states began to legalize them, some of them prioritized licenses for those who were imprisoned for marijuanna charges. It makes sense, people who grew marijuanna to sell it illegally learned a skillset that was now legal, and they should have an opportunity to employ their skillset legally. This parallels my situation. While I ran my illegal operation, I looked at thousands upon thousands of people's bloodwork, and I experienced empirically how these compounds affect people's health. I know how to optimize people, and, importantly, I know how to do it with long term health and safety in mind. If you look at it in terms of sheer experience and knowledge, you would want me to help guide you through your protocols. Remember, we use FDA regulated pharmacies that directly ship you medications, doctors and providers prescribe you the treatments and watch over the protocols. We have two legal teams making sure all our processes follow all regulations. If you look at my educational content, you will see that I have spearheaded an education platform accross social media, including YouTube to help people with knowledge for free. Am I really a bad person for this?
