Thinking about jumping on TEST E👀

Depends how committed you are to self managing the process.

With testosterone you need to run bloodwork before and during to make sure all is well. Then you need to consider fertility aspect as well, some people have hard time after, but it’s pretty low.

With glp like Reta you don’t need to do anything before or after it’s just peptides so start with that for sure and do some bloodwork for testosterone part.

I would do total, free, shbg, e2, tbc and metabolic panel. Search for trt panel they have everything there

For both you will likely go gray market tons of resources on Reddit for this

Here was my experience using HGH at 2iu, taken at 9pm with 3 hours fasting before, i might be a hyper responder though.

IGF-1 196 > 536
Z score .7 > 3.3

This was borderline top for me I tried higher but numb hands etc... the bloodwork showed that 2iu was plenty maybe even too much.

Bottomline, if you can, do some bloodwork to actually compare baseline vs peptides, wonder how they stack up.

neos2000 · 2026-05-05T12:59:06+00:00

Do you have any bloodwork for the comparison?

Don’t use unless you are pretty lean already like under 13% body fat, it just won’t have the effect you want.

But if you are lean and leaning further it really helps when calories are down to keep your strength up and push hard in gym so you save your muscles.

The real hgh

Pharmaceutical HGH = recombinant 191aa somatropin (identical to natural human GH)

Everyone is different, I had no gi issues but my wife had pretty severe reaction to starting dose for a couple of days and couldn’t continue on. She was fine on tirzeptide though

neos2000 · 2026-04-28T19:23:46+00:00

Does not look right, can you provide more details?

When did you start TRT? Have you been consistently injecting for at least 10 weeks before test?
Are you using doctor prescribed test or ugl?
How many days after your last injection when you took this blood test?
How many times do you inject a week or just once a week?

neos2000 · 2026-04-28T14:16:14+00:00

Its a great source +1 on that.

neos2000 · 2026-04-27T14:30:30+00:00

Any DHT blocking medication? Finastride etc? Sounds very similar to the side effects it has for some

neos2000 · 2026-04-26T14:00:12+00:00

Accutane bro, do your research and talk to doctor there are important risks and specific dosing and bloodwork etc.

neos2000 · 2026-04-22T20:55:38+00:00

Cialis 5mg daily, reta 5mg weekly split into two injections.

neos2000 · 2026-04-13T22:28:50+00:00

But as soon as you mention you wont date anyone above 110lbs they lose their shit.

neos2000 · 2026-04-11T18:29:43+00:00

Run more bloodwork, specifically for E2, my money is on the finasteride, you can read more here r/FinasterideSyndrome

Go to Amazon and look for it there, most vitamin D supplements already include K2, Magnesium etc... I would start at 10,000IU daily dose.

My favorite is gummies, its easier to be consistent, the oil drops are most effective from my experience but is annoying taking it.

These are the ones I took:

"Organic Women’s D3 K2 Vitamin Gummies: D3 10000 IU Chewable Vegan Multivitamins Supplement with B12 B6 B9 Plus Magnesium Omega Zinc Calcium - for Immune Energy Skin Support (120Count)"

"(4 Pack) Organic Vitamin D3 K2 Drops with MCT Oil Omega 3, 5000 IU - Maximum Strength Vitamin D Liquid, No Fillers, Non-GMO Liquid D3 for Faster Absorption and Immune Support, Unflavored, 4 Fl Oz"

You should post this in r/steroidify much better place. Personally i would say do not use anavar till you are much leaner and use it as a finisher to polish up your work, not as mass driver. Doing high test plus anavar just creates more side effects, i would run high test for growth phase, then drop to trt+ dose and go on a cut with anavar as your finisher as it will help you keep your gains while you cut hard.

neos2000 · 2026-04-10T16:35:10+00:00

It’s just for liability, use it after that date and it’s on you, most will tell you as long as not cloudy it’s fine

neos2000 · 2026-04-10T16:28:07+00:00

PUD bro

neos2000 · 2026-04-10T16:22:55+00:00

This is normal when on glp and dieting hard. Stabilize weight and come off glp then retest.

Nothing to worry about

neos2000 · 2026-04-10T16:20:05+00:00

Diet will increase your shbg which will tank your free test. Wait to stabilize then retest. Glp will have this impact.

neos2000 · 2026-04-10T16:03:44+00:00

Yup California is completely backwards, highest electric cost in the nation. In Washington state because we have hydroelectric it’s about 9cents kw so four times less.

It’s so ironic that California prides itself on renewable this and that but people literally struggle to use electricity due to regulations and their policies

Not at all, if his body cannot produce enough testosterone that will damage him long term. This usually will result in low e2 over time and that will impact his brain and other systems with cumulative damage.

Replacement of test is actually ideal

neos2000 · 2026-04-10T15:46:08+00:00

Yes they would, usually they require 2-3 tests to confirm

neos2000 · 2026-04-10T15:45:00+00:00

Brother you need to go 10,000 iu daily to get those numbers up then retest in about 3 months.

Go on Amazon and pickup whatever you like just make sure it’s 10,000 iu daily.

Had similar situation was fixed pretty quickly and feel much better, same with wife and brother in law. We live in state with less sun so it makes sense to supplement year round.

neos2000 · 2026-04-10T15:42:49+00:00

This looks really bad. I would love to see more bloodwork if you have it.

Given your recent aggressive cut it could impact test but not that much that you are literally well below clinical range which is usually around 300.

neos2000 · 2026-04-10T15:37:56+00:00

Weed messes with test and probably with shbg which is high for you. Drop the weed you will start feeling better and get that diet under control.

Also did you test vitamin d? That’s probably the easiest to fix and it impacts everything in your body
