    IF transdermals

    I’ve been interested in IF TD prohormones for a while due to the apparent mild-ness. I’ve been on 25mg clomid EOD for the past month (I’ve been cleared to take ED, but it’s impossible to find around where I am, so I’m going EOD until I can find a pharmacy that has it consistently). Being on...

    Cycle setup/ blood work advice

    I just got prescribed 25mg ED. I’ve been taking it EOD just because I want to see how it treats me. I plan on bumping up after a few weeks, but I’m only a week and a half in, so. FWIW, my buddy was on 25mg ED and took his test from around 300 to 700, now he’s down to 25mg M/W/F and is...

    Blast and Cruise on Clomid?

    Thank you for your input. If I ever try it, I’d probably stick to the milder topical stuff (like some of those IF products), so maybe it’ll be worth a shot. I want to be sure to get a good ways into the clomid treatment before I start trying to add anything, of course. My buddy took his test...

    Blast and Cruise on Clomid?

    Gotcha, thanks for your help! It sounds like test is a lot more versatile than clomid for this sort of stuff, but I’m just going to go with the doctor’s orders for now. Thanks again

    Blast and Cruise on Clomid?

    I apologize, that was confusing on my part. I shouldn’t have use the phrase “blast and cruise” at all. What I was wondering is if I could use a separate compound (whether it be something milder like Androhard, for example, or even a cycle of actual test) without having the same concerns about...

    Blast and Cruise on Clomid?

    Hello everyone, So, after years of wanting to do something about my low-ish test, I finally went to see a Urologist. He just called me back regarding my blood work and said that my total test was around 360 (age 36). He said that my other numbers look fine, but I cannot for the life of me...

    Serm required for andro TD?

    Gotcha. Yeah, my total T was 431 about 5 years ago at age 30. I’m planning on doing more comprehensive bloodwork soon. My GP wouldn’t test for anything other than Total and then said there’s nothing he can do because I’m in the “normal range”. hopefully I can get this blood work as soon as my...

    Serm required for andro TD?

    This may be a bit off of my original topic, but in line with the “testing the waters” stuff… I was initially interested in seeing what a TRT clinic could do for me. I spoke with a rep at the gym at length. However, that’s on the other end of the spectrum in terms of commitment. I do know for...

    Serm required for andro TD?

    Ah, gotcha! I didn’t realize sides would be noticeable so quickly. I guess I also assumed a longer cycle would = more suppression, and therefore, a more miserable PCT. Much of my concern had to do with side effects and not wanting to have a brutal PCT that I sometimes hear about with depression...

    Help with first “cycle”

    Thank you for your help! Would you suggest a cycle support (and would the saw palmetto found in so many of them inhibit the effects due to DHT?). I planned on running blood pressure support regardless. From everything I’ve read, an AI wouldn’t be necessary for this compound, but wanted to...

    Topic of the Week: The Single Best Supplement You've Taken

    I will look into that, but I’m so hesitant to try anything involving THC nowadays. I actually enjoyed it for anxiety when I’d mix a little bit of THC with a good amount of CBD, but i found it too easy to overdo it and too hard to find the sweet spot. CBD alone did nothing for me, THC was...

    Topic of the Week: The Single Best Supplement You've Taken

    Yeah, I watched a documentary where they followed some people to these retreats. One of them had an awful reaction and had to go to the hospital. She said it really messed her up. I guess, like anything, it could affect people differently. For example, I always have friends talk about how much...

    Clomid as a run

    From what I’ve read, Nolva can have a similar effect, but apparently is not as pronounced. I know this isn’t super helpful, but I did want to provide an anecdote: I was prescribed Nolva to help with pre-existing gyno (it didn’t work for that as the gyno was from puberty). I took 20mg per day...

    Serm required for andro TD?

    Thank you for your response! I had actually been planning on getting blood work done and completely forgot to mention that. My GP would only test for test and estradiol when I asked several years ago (around age 30-31) and my test was only 431 (he wouldn’t do free test), so I’ve been wanting to...

    Serm required for andro TD?

    Thank you for your response! Would you suggest running the serm for a shorter period? Does the 10mg Nolva sound sufficient? Do you see any other issues with my cycle, such as only running about 5 weeks and tapering up from 3 pumps to 5 to see how I feel being my first run? Thanks again!
