Am I too late to get in on this?

Mine are like raisins that got hit by a shrink ray.

Between the near non existent nuts and losing BF I now look average in Japanese locker rooms.

like I said, it biases towards high and reflects peak levels not trough. You’re injecting every two weeks right now and test e/cyp half life is right around 5-7days or so which means your trough is going to be in the gutter before your next injection. You’re dozing outside of the half life. Don’t rush your changes/adjustments. Things take time to normalize. Start small. First order is to start doing 100mg weekly and go from there. Assess after 4-6wks. Talk to your doctor about what you’re doing and maybe he/she can help you or at the very least know what’s going on.

So I just saw the new Dr. on Friday. He says that since I have been on TRT for so long...the chances of me getting ANY size back is very low. He said I should have been warned by the original Dr. who started me on the 200mg bi-weekly to take an AI...since that was not done and I have been on it for 14yrs...the chances are slim to none.

I guess I was hoping for a different answer. He said HCG works well in someone who is within a 2yr window of starting TRT....anything longer than that is useless. He is willing to try it out at least. Do you agree with his assesment??

Hey Guys...got my blood results back...wanted to post them here to see if anything jumps out at them. Please let me know if you think you can decipher these...Thanks in advance.

Tumour Markers
Prostate Specific Antigen
0.82
<4.0
ug/L

Methodology: Abbott Architect immunoassay.
Results should not be interpreted in isolation as
absolute evidence of the presence or absence of
malignant disease.
Changes in serial results may be misleading
unless all Total PSA results are from the same
laboratory method.
Reproductive and Gonadal
Estradiol
73
<162
pmol/L


NOTE: Fulvestrant has been shown to interfere
with estradiol testing by this direct
immunoassay. Results for patients taking
this medication may be falsely elevated to
a clinically-significant degree.

Some steroidal aromatase inhibitors are
structurally related to estradiol and may
interfere with some direct immunoassays.
Dehydroepiandrosterone [DHEA-S]
HI
11.3
< 9.7
umol/L
Testosterone
18.0
8.4 - 28.8
nmol/L

Total Testosterone levels may not reflect the
biologically-active testosterone when SHBG levels
are abnormal.
Testosterone Bioavailable
5.6
3.6 - 11.2
nmol/L

Interpret BAT results with caution in presence of
significant hypoalbuminemia.
Bone Markers
25-Hydroxyvitamin D
88
75 - 250
nmol/L

Season, race and dietary intake affect 25-Hydroxy
Vitamin D levels. Highest levels are found in
the summer months and lowest levels during the
winter.
Referred Tests
Dihydroxytestosterone
Results are pending ...
