@Rozrywka Po Pracy well that's exactly right. you don't see the point because you haven't researched it. Fasting is much more superior than simply eating in a caloric deficit. For muscle mass and general health.
Doc, You are one hundred percent correct! I was diagnosed with low T when I was 45 yrs. I started taking 1cc testosterone every two weeks for the last 15 years. now I'm 60 yrs old. First week I felt great and improved my libido, but then the second week was not so great. I have suffered from low libido and acne from high dosage. Since last year, I have changed the dosage to .5cc every week. I feel great! Everyone says I look very young for my age also. I believe testosterone has given me my life back.
It Does Give Your Life Back!!!! In 12 was I became 32 again lol then 56 ....this is a Sort of Silent Wave Tsunami of Health ,, Men everywhere have needed for Generations !!!!! Its finally available to a Great Majority ,tho, Docs are Not on board ,
...they have been preconditions for multiple reasoned to avoid and often attack steroids ,It's so obvious that there's an agenda and Health ain't on it!
Keep your doses regular pal. I actually dose every 2 days butt very small amounts just to keep everything in check and no peeking just a steady flow. It actually keeps every other hormone balanced. And will stop gyno &other sides. I was every day because I had a gyno scare from dossing higher amounts every 6 days ... just got bloods done so moving to every 3 days works better bud 👍
Sure wish you were my Dr!! As a disabled veteran and survivor of a pituitary tumor, I need a Dr with significant knowledge such as yourself. I just wish I could afford your wisdom! Thank you for making such informative and uplifting videos. Warm regards!
I have been on TRT for 5-6 months or so. I will say this at slightly higher than physiological free test levels that finishing was an issue. ED or motivation were not problem, but sessions would be prolonged past normal levels to the point of being tired and the finish line was not in sight. Estradiol levels were on the higher end. HCG did fix the problem for the most part. (1/2ml every week)
This is an awesome video. I am on 200mg/week and great numbers, but in fact I found HCG hugely increased libido, even though it has always been super high. I don't know what it is doing but man, I feel great. I need to sleep more, though. Always been a very short (4-6hr) sleeper... Yet I saw rheumatology last year and I have 0 inflammation markers or anything evident of body dysfunction! BTW, DOPAMINE!!!! Also, Vyvanse. But I've been on that for many years for ADHD. unbelievable how much that drug ups libido (amphetamine) Thanks for the great video as always doc and I agree, anxiety and therapy is very overlooked.
I micro dose Test E 8-10mg every day and my test total is 878 ng/dL. Estradiol is high normal and I take no aromatase inhibitors. I switched to this protocol, because on larger less frequent injections, I was forced to use aromatase inhibitors to keep my estradiol in check.
Thanks for offering cabergoline dose for elevated prolactin. Will use that in clinic tomorrow! Appreciate all the great evidence based info and clinical pearls. My patients appreciate every day.
Can you explain in further videos how you see a microdose protocol (daily doses) going well for people with gyno, acne and SHBG issues? You talk about it sometimes but never in depth. Love the content BTW
With micro doses, you never have a big/bigger spike in your test levels. It's during the spike, you'll experience conversion to estro/side effects. Micro dosing is the closest thing to mimicking the bodies natural test production...a little each day. Use insulin pins and it's beyond easy. I switched a few months back from twice a week injections, I prefer it.
Dude.... I am sooooo suffering from all the mental health issues. I came looking at TST for some physical gains, but now I'm following through for the mental health gains I didn't even know about! Looking forward to being able to sleep again and not being afraid of my shadow... just a couple more weeks... can't wait!
I’ve been on Androgel for over 6 years. Yes it’s a hassle sometimes to put it on daily, but my free testosterone is very high, and my libido is through the roof. I have no reason to change to injections, but I’ve always been curious about it. I have no need for an AI. Love this video.
Doc, You are straight forward and direct to the point, THANK YOU! The time table with list of content in your video and how to get to it is Doc smart and revolutionary. I have deleted all my other subscriptions on TH-cam for Test information because you’re the only way to go you’re the best! ☮️
Had the mri of my pituitary, came back negative, however I do recall my prolactin levels were on the higher side of normal. Definitely going to ask my endocrinologist about cabergoline
I have found the biggest factor for controlling my mood and sex drive is prolactin management. Doesn't matter if I'm using a 19-nor or not. I usually take 0.25 of caber twice weekly and the difference is night and day. For BP and general longevity I also use 5mg of tadalafil daily, also has an added benefit of amazing pumps when training.
IF SOME GUYS WATCHING THIS AND STILL HAVE ISSUES , ITS PROB CUZ YOUR ARTERYS/THE VESSELS/CAPILLARIES HARDEN MAKING IT HARD TO GET BLOOD SUPPLY, YOU CAN GET TREATMENT FOR THIS AS WELL.
The fact that Aromatese enzyme is highly regulated, is true, but the regulatory factors are in your lifestyle habits. One bad sleep can elevate the Aromatese activity so much that you may start to feel horrible, puffy, no libido and so on. Estrogen is necessary, doesn't mean more is good. Even if you use Letrozole, you still have 3% Aromatese activity because it's efficacy is only 97%. This 3% is per moment, the body will still create the Estrogen it necessary, but will take longer time as it's running at 3% working capacity for making Estrogen. Estrogen is not directly responsible for libido. DHT, Dopamine are something that are responsible for libido. The fact that Estrogen increases libido, because Estrogen acts as a MAOI, which allows more Dopamine to be available, so more libido. Just by using a Dopamine agonist like Cabergoline and a Vasodilator, because Estrogen is a Vasodilator, someone can have raging libido, there is no need to have uncontrolled Estrogen level. Use Phyto-estrogen like Maca. It activates Estrogen receptors lightly and increases Libido without the side effects of water retention, puffy face, emotional instability etc. which are caused by Estradiol.
Avoid salts Loose adipose tissue Eat plant based and plants bind estrogens which is why bodybuilders get lean on broccoli Interesting with maca. Soy (of course non GMO and organic only) also a phytoestrogen on the other hand blocks the binding of estrogen as the phytoestrogen bind to the estrogen receptors occupying. Since phytoestrogens have no effect on the receptor this causes the regular estrodial floating around in the body to not be used. Back to the maca as a phytoestrogen activating the estrogen receptor > when phytoestrogens are not supposed to have an effect on the estrogen receptor. Could you please send a source of your information? Seems very interesting if it turns out to be true. However Soybeans non estrogenic effect for a phytoestrogen are readily available on the internet. Sounds contradictory but eager or learn Thanks mate
@@marleybe7255 Don't have the time to summarize research links and put those here at this moment. Just understand this: Any photoestrogen would activate Estrogen receptor lightly, with much lower efficacy than actual Estrogen. Both Maca and Soy can do that, BUT there is a big difference between how differently we eat those. Most people consume Maca as a supplemental form, extract. Which destroyers most of the "Goitrogens", these are substances that disrupt the production of thyroid hormones. Incase of Soy, most people just cook it and eat it, which keeps most of the Goitrogens. They have cook it so much that all the Goitrogens are destroyed, that would however destroy Photoestrogen and other nutrients as well. So, no benefits of eating Soy. You would get de-natured protein from it at most. If due to Goitrogens, your Thyroid starts to malfunction then it would allow the Aromatase enzyme to work more and make more Estrogen because in Hypothyroid state, your Dopamine is low, Serotonin is high and Prolactin is also high, which is perfect environment for the body to signal more Estrogen production. Now, "plant based". It's not required. Most people would find it very hard to fulfil nutrient goal by keeping calories low. So, it's individual choice. I eat beef everyday.
I com from Denmark.. it is a shity country for trt.. I get trt but the special doctor dont now shit abuth trt. They wont thake blod for estrogen . Onley testosteron.. so bad and so stuppid
Oddly, SSRIs seem to elevate PRL So how come prolactinemia is observed under depression? Elevated prolactin leads to anorgasmia And antagonises testosterone in natty men
73 years old, and hoping for my last hurrah. Taking weekly injections of T. The desire has returned, but not the ability. I'm thinking Tadalafil over Viagra. Would there be any adverse affects to combining both? I know Doc, the T has got me a little crazy.
I'm 65 and have good results with 1/2 ml Sustanon q 6 days along with Tadalafil 5mg daily. And, prior to those 'special occasions', I take 100mg Sildenafil. I know we are all wired differently but this works well for me and without adverse side effects. Good luck to you Don and stay safe 🙏 Edit for clarity: Sustanon 250mg/mL.
Why not just use Proviron instead. No danger of aromatisation. It’s also what testosterone gets converted to and also improves virility and neurological drive.
I was doing 1 ml every week and learned from Derek at MPMD channel to use an insulin injection every other day. So now I do 4 injections a week of 1/4th ml and energy levels are so much better. Less negative reaction from supraphysiological levels of test.
God I love these videos. Glad you’re feeling better! What do you think about men using an AI sparingly towards the beginning of their transition onto TRT (if they have high e2 symptoms) and then weaning off as their natural production shuts down? It seems that men tend to suffer greatest from high estrogen symptoms in the early stages of treatment since they have significantly more endogenous test in combination with their injections. I feel this would be the perfect balance for those who are sensitive to aromatization (however rare they might be) without putting them on an AI indefinitely. Of course, this assumes their protocol is managed properly and isn’t the absurd 200mg injection of test cyp once per week.
@@geneticfreak84 Started in less than 2 months? Then you need to wait. Your body should balance itself within that time frame, as long as you dose daily.
@@JoshuaKevinPerry I started exactly 2 months ago (January 3, 2021). I’ve experienced strength increases and my body looks great. However, I developed Gyno and have very low libido and no erections. Doing 50mg test cyp every 3 days
I'm just doing 12-14mg day or .06 to .07 of 200mg enanthate subq to keep estrogen good and help with the erythrocytosis. Between you and Doctor T over in Greece I have learned a ton on how to safely manage balancing testosterone as I grow older. On a side note the sex drive is certainly higher than when I started
Hey doc , I really enjoy & think you have great content, I’m 45 & I want your thoughts about trend , do you think it’s dangerous, do you think there’s a careful way to take it , or is there really no such thing as taking things like trend careful, but most importantly I wanna know about testosterone, how many benefits can I get out of it, hope to hear Back from you. & thank you for your great content
I came to you years ago with very low e2 levels after using an ai you never really had much concern about my low e2 level at the time, wish you where more understanding about e2 at the time coulda really helped me out,
I’ve been running 250 mg a week. I split them up 125 twice a week. I’ve had to run an AI. When my estrogen is even slightly high I get very moody and very anxious. Maybe I should split them up even more
1:25 Assuming 1/2 mil is 100mg IME that is too much, I had to cut back in 80mg 2x a week to get peak sex drive...........for me 60 mg M/Thurs seems to be the best
I’ve been on trt for 4 years now and no matter what I do, how I switch things up, I can not get my libido back. It’s been depressing. If I take cialis I can function but the desire has been gone for almost 10 years. I wish I would have never done steroids doc
Aromatase inhibitors are not needed to combat aging. I once tried to raise testosterone with clomiphene without anastrozole. As a result, LH and Estradiol increased by 2 times, but Testosterone remained in the same place. And I also increased Testosterone from 17 nmol to 26 with anastrozole alone. Gentlemen, draw your conclusions. True, I must admit that these manipulations did not give me any improvement in my health or deterioration
Progesterone and DHEA? My understanding is that TRT suppresses the smaller amounts of progesterone guys make but it's an important chemical to do with sex and well being.
My doc has me on 100mg every 2 weeks and I hate it. A dr I was with before had me on 200mg a week and a felt amazing. The sex was amazing my erections were the best they ever been. Last time I was tested my T level was 325. She has me taking a DIM supplement. I may need to reconsider the Dr I’m seeing
@@marleybe7255 yeah but I'm not planning on staying that dose for ever. In two months I'm going down to 1cc . Then. 5 on the off cycle till it's time to kick it up again. So far the plan is working
Deca dura ,nandrolones , trenbolone etc , bind to progesterone and prolactine receptors and your getting gynecomastia of that type that can not be solved with AI and Clomid And tamoxifen.
My prolactin tested above 30 on my bloodwork. 2 contrast MRIs but guess the possible lesion was too small. Tried .25mg Caber and my anxiety, depression, and insomnia intensified way beyond tolerance. Had to stop after 2 doses. Doing daily micro doses for a total of 120mg a week test cyp. Keeps my anxiety and insomnia down, dealing with low SHBG, always upper single digits. Dosing kept E2 close to SHBG level is the best I could get. AIs always made me feel much worse, of course. What would cause the worsening of psychological symptoms from cabergoline, doc??
@@estebanvicencio893 Able to do twice a week now. Worked down from daily to EOD, then 3 times/week. Small, frequent dosing works best with low SHBG to keep mood as smooth as possible. I believe high doses of antidepressant medication was the cause for the unwanted blood levels. Keep your prescriptions in mind and get educated on them. Also eliminated any and all foods with SOY in it. Be very careful and read the labels. Good Luck and good health!
Funny thing is when I started taking testosterone I was told my cholesterol is going to get worse I’m already double higher then normal. I was on cholesterol medication for 30 years but while on the cholesterol meds I still was not in the normal ranges , but just high above of normal but still high.But I was shocked on my blood work after the first six months on test my cholesterol was normal I never thought this would happen! And was not on any cholesterol medications .
I’m on Sus 250 1 mil per week, I’d like to go to 500 or 2 mils per week, but being single I’m running 1 mil per week plus 200 mgs of Tren Ace per week, keeps the sex drive drive down but enables me to keep gains I’m 6”2 250 💪 I’m 50 years old
I dont take AI's dont need it but its true i realised i was getting misty eyes watching Disney's COCO with my daughter 😂🤣 been on 200mg a week of Test-C for 6 months now and I have not touched a single tablet of my PTSD & Depression medication and I feel high on life almost evry day i hope this stays and the sex is amasing i feel 23 years old again

I'm just doing 12-14mg day or .06 to .07 of 200mg enanthate subq to keep estrogen good and help with the erythrocytosis. Between you and Doctor T over in Greece I have learned a ton on how to safely manage balancing testosterone as I grow older. On a side note the sex drive is certainly higher than when I started
Hey doc , I really enjoy & think you have great content, I’m 45 & I want your thoughts about trend , do you think it’s dangerous, do you think there’s a careful way to take it , or is there really no such thing as taking things like trend careful, but most importantly I wanna know about testosterone, how many benefits can I get out of it, hope to hear Back from you. & thank you for your great content
I came to you years ago with very low e2 levels after using an ai you never really had much concern about my low e2 level at the time, wish you where more understanding about e2 at the time coulda really helped me out,
12.5mg aromasin every 5 days does me good on cycle! When did more ruined my libido!
Hey Doc, could you make a video about Ephedrine, please? I appreciate your dedication and work. Many thanks
When I had my levels at upper normal I had bad acne on my chest. Had to drop it right down to middle and I still had some each day.
Very good topics...I have been on trt pellets for aprox 7months and my libido absolutely sucks!!Trying to figure it out any help would be great.
Eat more fats
Interesting stuff thanks Doc!
tnx Doc! great content as always!
The testo drive is awesome, but im having a great drive with deca+estrogen. Its unbelievable.
I’ve been running 250 mg a week. I split them up 125 twice a week. I’ve had to run an AI. When my estrogen is even slightly high I get very moody and very anxious. Maybe I should split them up even more
Your probably takin too much test
@@mattmason4589 yeah you’re right I definitely was. I dropped the dosage and actually started going to a clinic. I feel much better
@@zachflores1505 did you have to still take an ai?
1:25 Assuming 1/2 mil is 100mg IME that is too much, I had to cut back in 80mg 2x a week to get peak sex drive...........for me 60 mg M/Thurs seems to be the best
we aint ready for you yet doc
Def twice a week, less skin sides for myself, tadalafil def better than sildenafil, no comparison. Currently 0.6-0.8 ml every 4-5 is really effective
what does NADIR mean? Thanks!
Gracias from TX!
I’ve been on trt for 4 years now and no matter what I do, how I switch things up, I can not get my libido back. It’s been depressing. If I take cialis I can function but the desire has been gone for almost 10 years. I wish I would have never done steroids doc
That's odd. I wonder what your protocol is. Why not make an appointment like I did. They're responsive. I paid and received lab orders the same day.
There's something wrong that your doc isn't finding.
Maybe the anabolic doc can help you
@@mulhollanddrivehobo6910 bs
This happens to most guys. Not just a few. Be careful of trt. You'll be eating cialis like candy
@@edwardwhite221 bullshit? Why?
Aromatase inhibitors are not needed to combat aging. I once tried to raise testosterone with clomiphene without anastrozole. As a result, LH and Estradiol increased by 2 times, but Testosterone remained in the same place. And I also increased Testosterone from 17 nmol to 26 with anastrozole alone. Gentlemen, draw your conclusions. True, I must admit that these manipulations did not give me any improvement in my health or deterioration
Progesterone and DHEA? My understanding is that TRT suppresses the smaller amounts of progesterone guys make but it's an important chemical to do with sex and well being.
thanks doc
Hey doc, it would be great if you can make a video about cytomel
Thanks doc (from Europe)
DOC... Instead of using Caber, have you have you looked into using P5P ? Caber has to many side effects. For extreme cases only. Thanks Tad
@@timmorani5143 fuck that scam
Look into ZMA
My doc has me on 100mg every 2 weeks and I hate it. A dr I was with before had me on 200mg a week and a felt amazing. The sex was amazing my erections were the best they ever been. Last time I was tested my T level was 325. She has me taking a DIM supplement. I may need to reconsider the Dr I’m seeing
Wow, being on trt sounds a lot better than being just a normal guy with normal testosterone levels. Maybe I should hop on it.
What's your opinion on cortisol blockers??
GreT video doc!💪🏻
Caber and benadryl was the thing a decade a ago
What did that do?
200mg/wk of Test E & 20mg/day Cialis (Tadalifil) - when your girl says to you midway through a 3 hour session "how are you still going?".... Boom!!!!
3 hour session? 🥱😉
My record was 1 hour non stop. Soreness and dehydration took over lol.
3 hours would kill the average dude.
My man, I sport this exact same protocol and I am always ready to go! Of note tadafil is good for shrinking prostate as well.
20 mg Cialis daily??? Bro that's 4x the daily recommended dose
MDMA and a home made 'Bombs Away' of 20mg tadalafil/50mg sildenafil.
Oh, you meant... my bad.
What do you think about the Chinese powders on the market these days
So doc did the app ever come out I'm looking for it what's it called
I use to have depression. Low energy. I was gaining weight. I started with 2 CCs of cipionate Testosterone. Once a week. my life turned around quickly
I also take 1 of B12.
2cc’s? 400mg testosterone? (2x 1cc of 200mg = 400mg correct ?!)
And once weekly? What is your Total and free t and estradiol mate?
@@marleybe7255 still waiting 3 more months before I get new blood work
@@marleybe7255 yeah but I'm not planning on staying that dose for ever. In two months I'm going down to 1cc . Then. 5 on the off cycle till it's time to kick it up again. So far the plan is working
I am 53 and started trt the first month was good but now my erections are crap and my balls are half their size any advice?
hcg for balls, cialis for boners
Same experience
I am confused .he is talking about ml.
What about mg per week
Deca dura ,nandrolones , trenbolone etc , bind to progesterone and prolactine receptors and your getting gynecomastia of that type that can not be solved with AI and Clomid And tamoxifen.
What is Cabre ?
I go back and forth between topical and injectable and injectable is a beast to topical. I just use topical to take breaks from injecting...
Estrogen I actually needed by men but what about prolactin? Can you crash your prolactin without side effects?
I don't want to inject every couple days haha
Half a mill ? What dose is that ? 500 mg cypionate?
3 mls every 4 days works for me with 1mg of arimidex
My prolactin tested above 30 on my bloodwork. 2 contrast MRIs but guess the possible lesion was too small. Tried .25mg Caber and my anxiety, depression, and insomnia intensified way beyond tolerance. Had to stop after 2 doses. Doing daily micro doses for a total of 120mg a week test cyp. Keeps my anxiety and insomnia down, dealing with low SHBG, always upper single digits. Dosing kept E2 close to SHBG level is the best I could get. AIs always made me feel much worse, of course. What would cause the worsening of psychological symptoms from cabergoline, doc??
Hoe are you doung rn . Sir?
@@estebanvicencio893 Able to do twice a week now. Worked down from daily to EOD, then 3 times/week. Small, frequent dosing works best with low SHBG to keep mood as smooth as possible. I believe high doses of antidepressant medication was the cause for the unwanted blood levels. Keep your prescriptions in mind and get educated on them. Also eliminated any and all foods with SOY in it. Be very careful and read the labels. Good Luck and good health!
@@JustinK808 thank you, sir.
The blood pressure meds and cholesterol meds have more negative sexual effect on me than anything else.
Funny thing is when I started taking testosterone I was told my cholesterol is going to get worse I’m already double higher then normal. I was on cholesterol medication for 30 years but while on the cholesterol meds I still was not in the normal ranges , but just high above of normal but still high.But I was shocked on my blood work after the first six months on test my cholesterol was normal I never thought this would happen! And was not on any cholesterol medications .
@@alleem118 same here but now my blood pressure is high on trt?
I lost wieght and started exercising and my blood pressure dropped and my heart rest rate also dropped
@@jaimesolis5717 take Tadalafil 5mg daily for blood pressure ans maybe a low dose beta blocker metropolol 50mg daily
micro-dosing works for me. .25cc per day. 1.5cc per week, don't take any aromatase inhibitors anymore
300mg week correct? 1.5cc = 300mg
Though you said 0.25 per day would equal 1.75 cc per week ?!
Best protocol on T... as much as possible!
I’m on Sus 250 1 mil per week, I’d like to go to 500 or 2 mils per week, but being single I’m running 1 mil per week plus 200 mgs of Tren Ace per week, keeps the sex drive drive down but enables me to keep gains I’m 6”2 250 💪 I’m 50 years old
I dont take AI's dont need it but its true i realised i was getting misty eyes watching Disney's COCO with my daughter 😂🤣
been on 200mg a week of Test-C for 6 months now and I have not touched a single tablet of my PTSD & Depression medication and I feel high on life almost evry day i hope this stays and the sex is amasing i feel 23 years old again
