    In our TRT center, we use mainly use injections because you simply get the best static results from that ... gels/creams are all over the place. Dr. McClain did a great job explaining the differences ... thank you Dr.!

    @Patriotx-gx4ce 2 года назад +20

    After 6 years of injecting I went with compounding test cream.
    Levels were same with both and I prefer roll on creams inside upper arms.
    No issues with absorbing or anything else this doc mentioned.
    Only downside is that compounding pharmacy cream is more expensive than vials.
    Injecting weekly gets also to be old and immune system always reacts to injections hence "test flue" since injecting anything in body passes regular immune system defenses gets to trigger it.
    Daily application of creams is easy and mimics biological normal curve of hormone levels vs juts a big spike after injections and long drop down.
    Our bodies are not designed that way.
    Levels of test should be highest early morning and go down through out the day vs staying elevated for a week.

      I did, on sustanon. Did it once weekly and would have a large bulge on my shoulder that was red and warm to the touch. After a day of injecting I would start to have flu like symptoms. I switched to enanthate after those 2 months and since have not had any of those side effects. Seems like different compounds affect people differently.
      Dosage was Sustanon 350 mg once a week @ 1cc.
      Enanthate 200 mg once a week @ .8cc.

    I take nandrolone along with test cyp. Nandrolone is supposed to be joint protective. I remember reading about site injection directly to injury sites might provide better healing of damaged tissues. At the time it was just theory and no studies existed. Is there any merit to this idea . I've got shoulder issues and would try it if it's feasible.

Only concern is long term usage and I had to raise my trt dose, so in theory my "HRT" is no longer 'HRT" but a moderate cycle (200 test cyp / 150 npp per week).

      It's easy to get it. Just get some and do it on your own. Then after a while abruptly stop taking it. Your levels will go to like nothing and any doc will give them to you that offers hrt, I recommend the pellets if just having hormone therapy is what you want. Bio te is what they are called. I will have to warn you. It's about 2500 a year, which isn't alot to me maybee others, and once you start .. you will always be on it. No matter what anyone's says.. you will feel horrible for a long time once you stop taking it. So if it's something you want to take for ever and are comfortable with that. Go for it. The pellets suck getting implanted its pretty uncomfortable.. brought my levels too 1100.. I get side effects when I've done higher with injections.. I don't know how people do so much..1100 levels work fine for me. I've had 1500 levels on injections and my red blood cells were through the roof. I quit taking it and my test was 180 and I got a doctor to give me pellets. It was a 330 before I took anything ever.

    I recently heard about TRT and its really overwhelming. There's so many conflicting ideas of whether or not its good for the person. The immediate effects does look really good but the long term effect mentioned on like Harvard Health, MayoClinic, WebMD on things like cardiovascular problem, strokes, and death from heart disease discourages me from trying it. I will need to do more research on this but there hasn't been much data on long term effect yet.

    Test prop, best for sexdrive, test cyph injections I had kinda bad blood work and things. The doses people say are insane to take. I had 1500 test levels on 1.5 ccs a week. My nipples were sensitive some, I cried watching movies that were sad very bad, all test for me is horrible acne, I get the test pellets now and they don't last 6 months, they last 4 and I go every 4.5 months.. when they insert the pellets it sucks very bad.. but it raises my test to 1100.. I don't have high red blood , I don't have bad side effects except acne. The last 2 weeks before I get my implant I do some test prop for sex. Besides that I think steroids aren't bad when you monitor your blood work and know your test levels. 1300 is pushing it.. 1500 is going to make things abnormal and over that I haven't tried it because for me a 1500 was intense. Go with the pellets unless you want intense side effects .. maybee that's worth it to others. Pellets are legal, and cost about 750 bucks for 4.5 months. No ups and downs.. no scar tissue from injections..good blood work.. feel good.. no matter what if your prone to acne it's all bad.

    • @detroitdiesel2983
      @detroitdiesel2983 2 года назад +16

      Injection frequency protocol is incorrect. You should start by dosing 50 mg to 75 mg twice weekly. Your injections are spaced way too far apart so that after two weeks the testosterone you injected is long gone. Not sure what kind of testosterone you are using, if it is testosterone cypionate it has a half life of about a week. Look into it, will make a huge difference.

    • @Sinasi08
      @Sinasi08 2 года назад +10

      If a Doctor gave you such a protocol, I highly recommend you to find another one. 150mg every 2 weeks is totally silly. Instead of doing 150mg every 2 weeks try 50mg every 5 days, you'll already feel better, more stable levels. Do not hesitate to challenge your Dr. Good luck to you 🤞🤞🤞

    • @AstroZombie1

    What is the rationale for using exogenous testosterone for therapy? I whole heartedly believe Clomid and HCG be used for men before adding creams or gels. Why not unregulated your own production and max it out first? Unless of course you have primary gonad failure. I believe most docs jump to testosterone injections instead of dialing in Clomid and maybe HCG on top and anastrozole as needed.

      Blocking estrogen from binding to your brain...Where it's supposed to be binding. And you want to use a AI on top of that? It's a self defeating cycle. You block the pituitary gland from getting the estrogen, so it signals testes to increase T production, which naturally creates more estrogen and DHT ect , so then you block that with an AI?..This whole model relies on denying your system estrogen . How long is that viable?
