    Why Do We Inject in the Glutes? Big muscle? Fat? Low Muscle Circulation?

    Not that I know of but that's basically how I learned about it talking with a PT after a bad injection.

    On TRT, persistent libido issues and weird finding

    I've read the same reports from guys on TRT. Something to consider is endogenous serum testosterone levels aren't stable or linear. A couple of things I've seen that could possibly help those willing to experiment for 4-6 weeks. Assuming 200mg testosterone per week as a TRT dose. This is my...

    Why Do We Inject in the Glutes? Big muscle? Fat? Low Muscle Circulation?

    For about 10% of people (my right glute) their sciatic nerve runs through the piriformis muscle instead of under it. If I accidentally hit my piriformis I inflame my sciatic nerve for about a month.

    Why Do We Inject in the Glutes? Big muscle? Fat? Low Muscle Circulation?

    Not sure why the medical community picked glutes and delts specifically but a bigger muscle has more dispersion due to the injection spreading out. Esters and volume matter too since Test Undecanoate is only as long lasting as 3cc or 4cc injections. Lower volumes have shorter active lives.

    My Lab Results (Please Help) - Low Test? High AST Levels? High Estradiol?

    This whole thread makes me feel like I'm taking crazy pills. There are 3-4 posts that are GTG though. FOR THE OP, YOU'RE STILL SUPPRESSED! Your LH/FSH are already above expected levels two weeks after stopping SARMS. Those are still extremely suppressive just like AAS. Testosterone lags...

    5 year old Test. Still good?

    Assuming it was prepared and stored properly it's likely well above 90% potency. These meds can last a long time per the DOD studies.

    lab results..... estradiol high?

    The likely cause for it being so low was insulin resistance. Mine was low and glucose, A1-C, etc looked good but my fasting insulin was almost twice the high range. I started intermittent fasting and got it under control within a year. SHBG has gotten into the 30s but I usually run in the 20s...

    On TRT, persistent libido issues and weird finding

    I've read a bunch of ranges but about 500ug/dL for DHEA-S is were most find benefit. As for pregnenolone, I've read 180ng/dL is optimal. I know I was having issues when mine dropped to 15ng/dL.

    On TRT, persistent libido issues and weird finding

    Have you checked your pregnenolone and DHEA? Both are tied to libido and TRT can cause a significant drop in both. hCG doesn't keep either of those elevated for me.

    lab results..... estradiol high?

    Was your SHBG low before TRT? TRT driving it lower is a sign of too much testosterone. I have lower SHBG too and it causes its own set of "feel good" issues. I'd get some insulin syringes and try dosing 10mgs daily. You'd be shocked how well it works.

    Trt sterile ?

    There's also evidence that "Alpha males" tend to produce more daughters to "balance the equation." That's also a chicken and the egg scenario since the alpha males tend to spend their lives negatively affecting their ability to produce male offspring due to lifestyle choices. Usually any...

    Trt sterile ?

    This wouldn't surprise me. I have 3 daughters. Even your job can impact this. It's called the "SOF curse" due to the ridiculous number of daughters born to operators. I know one guy with four and another with five. Both of these products show high antioxidant activity related to fertility...

    Trt sterile ?

    I had two after starting TRT. I think hCG was the main component to maintain fertility.

    TRT reasons

    If at all possible I'd delay TRT injections until it's completely necessary. Assuming you're not primary failure (testes) I'd say a SERM (enclomiphene) is your best option. Traditional Clomid has a host of mental issues and Nolvadex has weird clotting issues for an unfortunate few. I say this...

    low FSH and LH 7 months after stopping TRT

    SHBG has a lot more functions than just transporting sex hormones. Invalid Link Removed To answer your original post I'd get a semen analysis and develop a plan from there. Serum testosterone levels and fertility aren't completely linear in relationship. Even with intra-testicular suppressed...

    low FSH and LH 7 months after stopping TRT

    To clarify, you have the LH/FSH levels above and 500-600ng/dL of natural serum testosterone? If so then you're not low. It means your testicles are very sensitive to LH/FSH and don't need a lot of stimulation to produce effective levels.

    low FSH and LH 7 months after stopping TRT

    What were your levels on enclomiphene?

    low FSH and LH 7 months after stopping TRT

    Try the enclomiphene again. 25mg EOD or ED is where I would start. Mine LH/FSH stayed low too after getting off TRT and my serum test levels never went above 140ng/dL.

    What Is Strong?

    @Dustin07 You can't have a peak without having a valley between them. The older you get the less you should be peaking and instead work on expanding your base strength. Genetic leverages factor in too and while you can always get stronger how much risk will you accept to pursue the endeavor...

    Results From Daily Protocol

    From my own results I'd add the pregnenolone and dial that in since it's upstream from DHEA and converts to some neurotransmitters. I feel best on 200mg pregnenolone daily and it made a huge difference for me. I also do best on daily injections generally.
