  1. Middle Age Is A Great Excuse To Blast And Cruise

    Libido died about a week ago. Hair on top is definitely thinning. I am thinking of stopping self-treatment and waiting till I can afford a doc. I no longer train at all. I just don't care at all anymore about how much I can lift or how big I am.

    Did it. Just riding out our last couple months living together. Also, I FINALLY went to DAILY low dose. Looks like that did the trick. I'm doing 10 - 12.5 mg of TE every day. Horniness is through the roof. I get aroused easily and have intense wet dreams. No AI necessary so far, though I have...

    Settled on this: E3.5D (Sun a.m., Wed p.m.): 62.5 mg Test E + 12.5 mg Aromasin It seems that smaller and more frequent dosing isn't doing enough to manage e2 levels so I'm giving up on that. Going to a more convenient schedule in which I dose asin twice weekly concurrent with the e3.5d...

    Okay. But I got some more lab work and it looks like my kidney function came roaring back. I am well over 100 again at 110. Also my e2 is consistently just 5 over the range. So I let myself up my dose to 30 mg eod of Test E and I've been taking asin 12.5 mg e2d or e3d. I started filling out...

    Morning wood, mood, and libido had been going down. I had been keeping the dose closer to 13 or 14 than to 15. But yesterday I went just a little over 15 g and today my erection woke me up. I was thinking sub-15g was a little too low. But I was being hyper-cautious because of my last readings...

    Libido has been really up and down, but mostly down. Again, lots of situational stress: moving, work, relationships, investments. I think the higher e2 really is messing with me. In fact I think it has always been the problem. I've always had low SHBG and therefore even a small amount of...

    Much to my relief I woke up with strong morning wood. Always a good sign, but especially after I skipped an injection. Libido is low, though, about 2.5/10. Started back today with 13 - 15 mg. Got some Asin on the way and will probably use a little to take the edge off what will probably still...

    My low SHBG has my free T 50% over range on this baby dose. That free T is then available for e2 conversion. I skipped my last eod injection to let my hormone levels dip a bit. That's an extra two days to starve the aromatization process of new fuel. Ideally my excessive free T and e2 levels...

    I would say so. I read about low-dosers who start around 60 test C per week and most graduate to 80 and some as high as 100. But there are those who do best by moving toward 40 per week. Looks like I am one of those. I had a feeling this would happen based on my results a year ago. I was over...
  10. Middle Age Is A Great Excuse To Blast And Cruise

    Bloodwork shows my total and free test and e2 are all elevated after exactly six weeks of 20-22 mg test-E eod. Testosterone, Total LC/MS/MS 779 ng/dL [trough], RR 250-1100 ng/dL Testosterone, Free 271.5 pg/mL, RR 35-155 pg/mL Estradiol, Ultrasensitive LC/MS/MS 54 pg/mL, RR <= 29 pg/mL Sex...

    Also it looks like my libido is coming back, but only under the extreme circumstances of new potential sexual partners. I don't walk around prone to sexual thoughts, but if a novel female seems receptive, I start getting sexually excited. Kind of a tricky problem now that I'm in a committed...
  12. Middle Age Is A Great Excuse To Blast And Cruise

    Still on 20-22 mg test enth eod. Morning wood is good, but overall libido still wanting. I need to get blood work next week, but others have pointed out that my blood pressure meds and anti-depressants are probably contributing to my problems. If my trough T levels are low, I will up dose to...
  13. Middle Age Is A Great Excuse To Blast And Cruise

    Paused bench up to 175 for two triples, then DB rows with the 100s. For months I have not wanted to go to the gym. It's so nice to have some motivation back along with the strong drive to push iron. My mood is better and I am feeling and acting more assertively. Right-dosing test is the...
  14. Middle Age Is A Great Excuse To Blast And Cruise

    4/27: zero MW, but I did only get three hours sleep. Still think I would do better with lower injection dose eod. Really need to watch out for e2 spikes. 4/28 Update: Decent MW. Stronger than yesterday, but not as strong as a first one a few days ago. This is a about 60 hours after my shot...
