Decreased ejaculation volume

In suggest to drs to run 100 ius 2-3 times weekly to see how their patients respond due to its effect on e2 then will have Dr inverses dosage if all is good
The goal is not to raise testosterone when on hrt but just to help replace the lh with in the receptors through out the body ..

Still need to find another endo,, mine wants to keep my level at around 400... I never feel a difference until 700 and up,,, also I had to almost beg her to go weekly instead of biweekly with my injections,,,, the thing is I do run periodic AAS cycles with higher levels of test and trenbelone acetate ... and/or hdrol and furaza.... I get regular labs when off cycle, precycle, midcycle and post cycle,,, I try to stay on top of everything,,,, just recently my mid cycle labs showed super high liver levels,, stopped everything got checked out,, turned out to be a virus of all things,, if it weren't for my labs the methyls I was on would have exacerbated the problem and who knows what may have happened

My girlfriend is wondering if hcg will help her,,, she doesn't want to do the whole hcg diet, just is wondering if it has benefits for her as a regular supplement?
 
I have noticed a HUGE increase with daily wheat germ oil consumption. I would add 2 tablespoons to my morning protein smoothie when I was drinking them. I have gotten away from the smoothie but I may go back to it because I too see s decrease in ejaculate since being on T. also my ejaculate is more watery now for some reason

It will do more harm then good not knowing where her imbalances lie. There is no magical solution to weight loss in other then calories in vs calories out which is different for every one depending on their own biochemistry (thyroid, adrenal, and sex hormones, nuitrient uptake)

Thanks..... right now she doesn't have insurance,, but come October, next open enrollment, I'm putting her on my insurance
 
Someone probably already said this, but, 100mg zinc before bed along with magnesium oil gets me spillin the milk. Get plenty of quality fats. If the nutrients aren't in place, you're missing a cog in the machine

Give this man a gold star !!!
and if you can not absorb them it also can be an issue which 90% of issues I deal with are GI related.

After a month or so ceruloplasm will drop as well as ferritin. This is a huge factor to why men can not get ferritin levels up they are over dosaging on zinc. I was a victim of it and learned the hard way. What you read on line people have no clue what it can do in a clinical setting. As noted this what makes me such an incredible resource for Dr's is I have experience just about every pit fall imaginable so their patients do not have to suffer as I did.

why not just use ZMA instead of topical mag and a high dose of zinc. Do you take copper along with zinc?
Click to expand...

As I found the forms of Zinc and magnesium in ZMA does not work for people with thyroid issues and absorption issues. The magnesium is wrong kind for certain people so is the zinc. I use my own combination which is more bioavailable and has been shown to actually change parameters on intracelllular testing as well as certain markers on blood test associated with zinc functions.
 
So when does it come out?
 
ZMA-trix

Copper is taken away from zinc 6-8 hours if needed. Proper monitoring of labs is needed for this.

what if you take Zypan by Standard Process? Would that help with absorption?
Click to expand...

Depends on you are deficient in? HCL or pancreatic enzymes..Each case is different..
Final question why? Need to address the underlying cause not just look at symptoms.
 
So would you suggest digestive enzymes does in multiple meals per day?

The Matrix said:
As mentioned before there are other areas which need to be explored out side of the hormonal cascade. All of which Phil also.mentioned. I notice lower lh also causes lower sperm volume which hcg may help if on hrt. Several nutrients also allow for proper functioning on good prostate health. Looking at the whole picture will get the best over all results..

Especially people who abuse their system such as us bodybuilders...I admit I am guilty and have paid the price. Its one of my biggest secrets for traning people is ramping up their ablity to absorb food requiring less calories creating less oxidative stress. Why I am known for creating freaks at the local gyms. "Freak" is my nick name because of amount of weight i can lift for my size Plus i stay in condition year round. Scarey part is I have increased my body to assimilate calories >30% a normal person. Why I only need 1400 calories a day to maintain and gain strength at lean 200 lbs 5'9. Once you understand tricks behind biochemistry it can be applied in other areas esp bodybuilding and athletes.

I take a small fist full of chewable papaya enzyme with every meal and protein shake!! I also take psyllium mixed with 100% pure aloe juice first thing in the morning on an empty stomach to get things moving from the start

Papaya will rot your teeth because of the fillers and binders mainly sorbitol. Not the best choice IMO
 
I'd love to find a powder to use (cheaper) -source help?

I know my chiropracter wants me to take Zypan by Standard Process with every meal. I was on proton pump inhibitors for over 5 years before I realized they were making me sick. My chiro has me taking a PH test and zinc test next week. I never really had reflux until I started proton pump inhibitors and I am sure my body still isn't producing enough acid for absorbing nutrients like zinc and mag
 
Betaine HCL can be a good cheap basic cover-all due to the HCL (as that is whats lost in the gut over the years) that assists with all the DEAD ANIMAL MEAT/FOOD we bb'ers ingest BUT there are MUCH better MACRO-SPECIFIC enzymes (more costly too) of course).

Globally speaking, cooked foods (mainly meats) are the culprit.

Caveat being: Just switching to RAW foods/veggies over night (not slowly) will cause issues as well (too much shock), and should be done slowly - raw veggies/foods are ideal as the enzymes are not depleted.

For now, I believe MY personal issues to be related to DEAD MEAT (cooked animal foods) stitting in the gut getting TOXIC - so I am planning on focusing on protein-specific enzymes to start.

As we age, we lose a certain amount of digestive enzymes (no different than natty GH levels that decline w/age) however, the MOA is different. I believe we are born with a certain POOL/amount of these enzymes - the faster these are depleted (by crap foods), the faster you "run out" and have digestive issues.

Well, that's my understanding. I could also add relevant comments about the acidity in animal meats and processed foods aggravating the situation as well (and the need to alkaline food choices to protect from osteoporosis, kidney stones, amongst other ailmenets) but that's for another thread.

No need to COMPLICATE things or try to make a buck off of relatively simple advice. Isn't THAT what these boards are for? Brothers helping brothers out for FREE and SHARING personal knowledge/insight? There seems to be a lot of question-dodging and generalizing going on all over these forums these days - as to seemingly intentionally COMPLICATE things that do not warrant elaborate discussions or PAID advice.

I say the aforemerntioend with all due respect. We need to help each other out for FREE and without BS-enconomizing intentions and hidden monehy making agendas that are propagated from "teaser" posts. Get to the freaking point if you got something to say/offer. iof making a buck is the ONLY agenda, pay your sponsorship fees liek the other sponsors and go about it transparently.

IF a COMPLICATED matter preesents, which warrants comprehensive analysis and/or a thorough reviews od systems and/or compensatory systems/mechanisms then COOL - subscribe to consultations with a specialists or guru - otherwise, whatever happened to simple direct HELPFUL meaningful posts.......... "JUST BECAUSE". Rant Over.

+++This is NOT a slam or directed towards anyone - just tired of seeing the perspecasious clandestine motives/posts on this board lately. Again, I say the aforementioend with all due respect. If anyone gets hostile, it will only validate my point - will it not? ;)
 
I ordered some Zypan yesterday and I am waiting for it to come in. I am thinking along with my Chiro it will assist with digestive and other issues.
 
It's a good "start". IMO, you'd be better-served to identify/isolate the causative culprit for whatever digestive issues you may have. As we've been discussing, digestion is undoubtedly the biggest player here but not always the problem.

Moreover, if it's protein you are having issues with, choosing a specific protein enzyme blend (proteases) will be of greater value to you. As an example, the one you just bought (below) is more geared towards general digestion needs. Perhaps that is exactly what you need. Not knowing your current dietary habits and from years past along with any other health issues, we'd be guessing.

Two tablets supply approximately: 350 mg betaine hydrochloride, 130 mg
pancreatin (3x), 70 mg bovine pancreas Cytosol™ extract, 50 mg pepsin
(1:10,000), and 20 mg ammonium chloride.

Proprietary Blend: 700 mg
Betaine hydrochloride, pancreas
Cytosol™ extract, pancreatin (3x), fatty acid, pepsin (1:10,000), ammonium
chloride, bovine spleen, and ovine spleen.

Great advice. The mindset of conventional MD's placing a bandaid on a bigger problem without exploring the actual origin of the disease/disorder (or the etiological agent) is remiss and sadly pernicious in the medical community.

Identify and treat the cause, not the symptom.

Example:
Patient: "I've got chronic pain in my wrist"
MD: "Here's some Vicodin, call me in 3 months for a refill"
Patient: "ok"
EDUCATED/INTELLIGENT Patient: "Doc, how the HECK is that going to fix anything? I am not looking for something to simply mask my pain, I need to identify, address and fix my problem. I also don't want to live on narcotics, up my dose every 6 months due to my body attenuating the drug, get treated for liver disease 10 years from now, and continue to suffer from debilitating pain the rest of my life, along with incurring OTHER compensatory injuries from not addressing my wrist dysfunction to begin with. SO, No thanks you QUACK!"

I have people on PPI for 15 years off in 3 weeks, you just have to find the underlying cause (could be laundry list of things). This is why proper evaluation is crucial to find out what and why you are lacking then make adjustments. zinc test are pretty much wishy washy. I use muscle testing which results have been back through medical testing for accuracy rate of >90% . Zypan is very expensive at only 90 caps you eat 6 meals a day thats 12 caps lasting barely a week. I prefer to look into things through proper evaluation to get to reason why you needed in the first place. Since people did not know my history, I followed lots of people advice on line resulting ended up in ER run, and almost dead a few times. The reason I have hesitant is nothing about making money, but rather looking out for the well being of people on here. Until you know the person medical history, the real picture then some times making recommendation may end up making them worse. I only provide information relevant to the topic, will not go into further detail knowing it could be potentially harmful to the person. I have been on boards for 8 years have close to 100,000 posts on numerous boards and have seen people life's destroyed by mis information because they did not know the real facts. In this case- What if he had atrophic gastritis, ulcer, or some other Gi inflammation going on and he started cranking up HCL to 1500 -3000 mgs a day? Guess what he could end up with a bleeding ulcer because of not knowing what is going on. THIS IS WHY I ALWAYS ASK WHY ARE YOU, Been doing this long enough in a clinical setting to actually meet the people on line. What information they leave out here, has many times change the total approach. Once the underlying issues are identified people have been able to discontinue TRT, thyroid , and other medicines under Dr medical supervision. I'm not going to provide any information which can be harmful. BTW did you know if you a person was on warfin or coumadlin and you start taking huge amounts or proteases, cellulases some of which are in these digestive enyzme formulation that they can end up with bleeding or clotting to death. Just on 3 krill oil a week a week from listen to some idiot on line saying they are so good for you, a client eye went to full hemorage and he almost was permeantly blinded. See these are the things you do not hear about because you are not dealing with it on a daily basis.

I will say this we all have natural enzyme banks, we are always constantly taking out, but never putting back in. When you run out of enzymes then this is where your health starts to decline. The digestive system as a refer as "From hole to the other" takes majoirty of our energy for digestion. When digestion is not working properly then your immune system and neurotransmitter will take a huge hit which can cause massive chain reaction through out the body.

I would use a broad spectrum something like OMEGA zyme from garden of life.

You are taking zypan which is EHH, but what about supporting fat emulsification restricted due to thicken bile flow 90% of people I deal with have. Your approach is only about 25-30% of total puzzle ...missing the other 75%. This is why each person is individualized.

Easily summed up

actually the problem was in 1997 a gastro doc prescibed me the PPI for Barretts Esopagus. Well come to find out years later he diagnosed everybody with Barretts in order to put them on the PPI'S. When I saw a new doc he told me this and did a scope and said there is nothing out of the ordinary. I went to a gastro doc because I was eating 11-12 meals daily to go from a middleweight to a lightheavy in a 2 year time span. I was 19-21 at the time and I followed eating advice from a so called guru in the NJ/NY bodybuilding scene. Long story short I should have just taken digestive enzymes and decreased the meals to 8 meals. My issue now with digestion lies with candida which me and my chiro are slowly may get the upper hand on.
 
the candida infiltrated my GI tract from the use of PPI's for years and alot of antibiotic use during that time(I worked in a hospital and got sick alot).

Duh lack of stomach acid opens your body up to SIBO and candida, which causes inflammation compromised your adrenals, nutrient absorption. You need to back fill all those nutritional imbalances which have been created. When properly evaluated and restored you probably can get off TRT as well. HMMM do you see a pattern here..You got mercury issues you will never get rid of candida plain and simple. I take care of candida from every angle, directly and indirectly. Honestly from cases I dealt with you will probably be spinning your wheels if al areas are not dealt with together. TRT was great for a temporary bandaid effect, but its not going to be a long term solution. Imagine you had no clue about GI and liver issues (down regulated acteyl aldehyde pathways, glycination most likely), and was on just on TRT guess what you are opening up a huge potential for esophagial ,colon, and other cancer down the road. I have not even looked in methylation factors which I am sure a huge issue as well adding more fuel to the fire. This is where 8 years of autistic research of studying neurology and physiology, being bounced around the medical system for a few, designing for protocols for medical professionals for 6 years comes into play, and almost dying not once but a few times due to figure out what is really going on and how to over come it..God honest truth, Since educating Dr's they have a higher success rate approaching every case as if it was an autistic child since 70% of more the issues they deal with are essentially biological the same. THink I am loco, think about what you are going through and what 100% CFS people are experience SAME EXACT SYMPTOMS.. When dealing with diabetes I use the same approach as I would an autistic child. In majority of cases there is bacterial overgrowth which causes altered carbohydrate metabolism resulting in insulin dysregulation ...Correct the SIBO and GI tract viola diabetes is gone body rebalances it self.

Depends on size of meal, how depleted your enzymatic bank supply if you are enzymatic deficient or HCL. The later 2 is basically trial and error unless you due further evaluation through OAT (organic acid test) or other ways methods. Most professionals miss all the information presented in OAT because they are looking for black and white areas. Majority of information is in the gray areas and is hidden.

well that changes the whole ball game and why zypan will not work on its own. ...and do you see thes "OH GEEZE BTW " issues can change the whole course of treatment as well as success and failure..I do not have your whole supplement list, but if the one ingredient is not in there you can forget the whole process and you been pissing away your money...

People are always complaining about costs. Well guess what if they stop belly aching bite the bullet do the proper evaluation have them intrepret then find out what they really need. The amount of money they pay for 4 month from these "health professionals" uses trial and error method you could have made up for it in 4-5 months in buying supplements. By having clinical data which allows to make you sounds recommendation having medical validation will result in cost in the long haul, as well as a way to measure progress. Your Dr get do it probably for free for you since hes a DC. Goto my link "lab testing getting to the core" all the information is in there, but people just ignore it when its probably on of the most important links on this site.

so Omega Zyme would still be a good addition?
Click to expand...
Yes, for one piece of the puzzle but other 50% is totally missing which will probably if not correct will prevent you from ever getting better. This is why having detailed medical history, bio, supplement /meds list, food journal, is crucial other wise your flying blind. THis is prime reason why I am afraid to give detailed information out . Each case is individual, each person system is different. I can not tell you how many mess up biological anomalies I have ran into over the years which did not follow typical pattern, but total paradoxical.

These 2 tops them all
Give a person insulin it raises blood sugar, give her OJ it lowers it. WTF..

other supplements include probiotics,multi,sustain alpha or stoked (for reservatrol), toco-8, Candida Clear(I have slowly increased dosage of this product) and 160mg of TRT weekly.

Id say there a 80% chance or greater for you not being on HRT in first place when all is said and done..Like I said I have never seen candida alone, but rather with 2 or more co infections which the nasty ones. I think you are just skimming the top of things have not even broke surface..
 
how would I tackle the co-infections? I really believe these nasty things are what is causing my prostatitis. I would love to get off the TRT therapy.
