My freind did the same thing hes doing it this week. hes testing to see if your balls are recieving the signal and oviously they are responding. checking for primary or secondary. Obviously it seems to be primary but i may be wrong.. have you been a bad accident or head trama in past 5-10 years? your low thyroid may be the primary cause with slight low adrenals

 

[engival]

no bad accidents or head injuries....

what can i expect shippen to put me, CLomid or hCG?
my ED is my biggest problem, its quite severe, followed by bad fatigue
i just uped my armour to 1 grain today...
although since taking armour for 1 month, my nightly erections are more frequent and firmer, but there still dead during the day..

Hi probably is going to try HCG first, if your testis are able to get you to TT=842 that is great news.
Most likely HCG every day, probably little larger dose.
DHEA low, try pregnenolone cream first.
Start some kind estrogen and SHBG management, DIM+I3C etc, (DualAction + TMG + Super MiraForte)
FT3 low, go up to 3grains then recheck.
I was able to ramp up quite fast, your milage mat vary.
I was going by body temperature, pulse plus 2x5mg Corteff backup, needed or not. Ramped down Cortef about month and half latter when I was on 4grains.
4grains was too much, but still no adverse feelings.
Reduced to 3grains because of blood test showing FT3 over top range.

Good luck.
I would do more testing, health is not only T, E and FT3 levels.

 

[engival]

will i need cortef?
and will shippen know about all this stuff you recommended too?

is it ok to go from 1 grain to 3 grain, or increase 1/4 grain every 2-3 weeks be best?

I went from zero to four grains within month and half.
When I was increasing the dose I tried to be close to home.
In retrospect nothing happened.
My doctor was not thrilled, but I do 99% of the stuff by myself.

I am 100% sure that Dr Shippen knows about Armour and Cortef, he just is in position that he needs to be more cautious with his advice on ramping up.
Thyroid and adrenals are basically all how you feel, physical testing is secondary. Some of the progress in this area actually hurts some people. I have in mind use of syntetic thyroid hormones.

Always keep months worth of Armour, just in case you cant get it right away.

 

[engival]

alright thanx,, dam im soo ready to see shippen and get all this taken care of.. thanx for the info, ill let you know how the appt. goes

He is secondary since he is responding to clomoid. Primary would be when there is a testculat failure. In his case that is not the case.

The leading cause of ED is not low T, its low blood supply to the penis caused by arterial plaque somewhere in the plumbing. You didnt mention your age. Cholesterol level is a good indicator of plaque deposits. Its worth looking into if youre over 35.

Not true, I got 10 - 1 says that anyone I shoot 1g of T into gets wood like a highschooler. So many factors at play.

Both E2 and SHBG a little high.

I like DIM and chrysin cream. Preg cream + Chrysin cream +DIM possibly for life, short cycle of hCG to get things going.

im only 23 and at a good weight. im ripped

today i woke up with a hard on that you could of hung a 15lb dumbell from

but the other night i tried to masturbate and my penis was like bubble gum, and if i do get a semi on i can bust nut in under a minute; i don't know if fixing my hormones will do anything to help,,, lets hope

Which indicates that you probably dont have arterial stenosis.
T doesnt cause erections- blood does. No blood flow- no erection.
Just read that the guy is 23. So its probably not a factor for him

Try some argine 1000 mgs 3 times a day or some A AAKG might putthe lead in your pencil

 

[engival]

does it take awhile for that stuff to take effect on how you feel?

i could not tell any difference between when i was at 350 and 840 t levels, in a weeks time..

feel better in 2 weeks but full cellular effects not for 4months for body to undue damage of low T and the cellular level
What about bioavailable how much of that is usable.

My tt - 1111
bioavaialve is 594 thats only 54% due to elevated shbg

Blood flow is the means of getting an erection. Testastorone get defintely affect those erections. If you are hypogonodal , you can have excelelent arteries but you still wont get an erection. Having good aterteries is one of the factros in having a good erection. Not The factor. If you dont have the drive in your head 'cus of low T . you wont get an erection. You can have a functioning tube , but your pump can fail.

what are some good questions i should ask shippen?

or if anyone has questions, i'll gladly ask shippen when i see him

curious to know his thoughts on OTC AI's.

curious to know his thoughts on OTC AI's.

If other estrogens such as esterone can mimic e2 and if it possible that it can bind in its receptors causing hormonal malfunction..

That estogen metabolites that are not transported out of the body can also cause hormonal dysruption of the pituatary and hypothalamus

 

[phatkid77]

whats an ideal total test/to bio test level...

hardasnails is 54% and says thats not good...
im 53%?

phats

I do not know of any published reference but I am aiming at the top of one of them, either FreeT or BAT, leave the other where it falls.

I think I will do same with Free and bioAvailable Estradiol, aim at top of the range but definitely not over it.

But we need all our hormones just in the right amounts.
