  1. anyone with really poor immune system find a workaround?

    What exactly is wrong with your immune system? What test results do you have? Have you actually measured your adrenals with and without exercise? My immune system sucks too but I doubt you have the same problem. I have pan-CD3 lymphopenia. The only "hack" I found recently is ibuprofen...
  2. Low Libido, ED, Age 65.....Help

    Yeh 5.92ng/dL is low. You should get the actual lab result though to confirm rather than just trusting the calculator. Your gut history is potentially relevant. You may not notice any symptoms now but there still could be some residual issues affecting SHBG and free T. You do not look like a...
  3. Low Libido, ED, Age 65.....Help

    Finally someone that is actually aging posting on this board instead of the usual 20-something with ED. As for your SHBG, it might be this as this fits with your low free T and your total T is not bad. On the other hand your SHBG is not that high - mine has been higher albeit with normal...
  4. muscle repair and DHT

    This is an update. I have been off of Avodart since May. The amount of drug left in my system is probably around 5% or less. I noticed that my shoulders started feeling better so I very slowly resumed my pushups and pullups. All was well until I got back to 25 pushups and 8 pullups. Then I...
  5. Aromasin results and a question

    You can see that the aromasin drove up your T level as expected. This will also increase DHT and this can cause your prostate to feel swollen. I got the same feeling coming off avodart when my DHT levels went back up.
  6. Will Arimidex return prostate to normal?

    You might want to check out this article: Invalid Link Removed Their evidence is that BPH is caused by blood flow issues. It makes a lot of sense but I'd like to see their results reproduced by someone else.
  7. Will Arimidex return prostate to normal?

    Do you have some references for this?
  8. VARICOCELE...can it effect testosterone?

    The answer to the question whether varicocele can affect testosterone appears to be a resounding but qualified yes. According to the seemingly excellent research I posted in a thread entitled varicocele and the cause of BPH, varicocele profoundly increases prostate testosterone levels by more...
  9. Varicocele and the cause of BPH

    Isreali doctors appear to have nailed the cause of benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) - see abstract and links below. In short it is the failure of the venous drainage system (varicocele) that is the cause. For most men with BPH their varicocele is sub-clinical and bilateral. The treatment is...
  10. muscle repair and DHT

    What do you mean by "genetic snps"? I'm aware of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) as a form of genetic mutation but this is not something you can use - it is something that you have.
  11. muscle repair and DHT

    I did eliminate wheat and tried every other kind of diet too. No diet can fix my problems. That would be way too easy.
  12. muscle repair and DHT

    I have a history of food intolerances but not allergies. These have gotten a lot better. But I also have a history that is a form of irritable bowel syndrome that has gotten worse. For sure I have some malabsorption problems but these are on the side of too much. I don't have any nutrient...
  13. muscle repair and DHT

    Hey daAMx, thanks for the post. For sure it is a mix of stuff needed for healing including E2. I'm a big fan of peptides but somehow I missed these. I will check them out. I know these are not addressing the root cause but I'll take whatever help I can get while I figure it out.
  14. muscle repair and DHT

    I have been off Avodart for another month. To counter potential estrogen issues I have been taking reservatrol, some phytosterols and I3C. I did not take any nettle yet because of my immune deficiency. At this point my serum levels of Avodart should be down to 20% of a full dose. My prostate...
  15. muscle repair and DHT

    At the moment I think the avodart is the most likely culprit for my muscle/tendon issues. I have been weening myself off this drug this month. I'm at about 40% full dose serum levels now. There has been some improvement in my knee injury so far. For sure I have other issues that may...
  16. muscle repair and DHT

    The drug effects were huge. The diseases you listed do not drive your mojo through the roof. I think the effects may have been more pronounced because I take Avodart.
  17. muscle repair and DHT

    Yeh, this is hard to do. At first I tried to crush it to a powder and dissolve in liquid and dose by measuring amounts with eye dropper. Problem is that aromasin doesn't dissolve easily so you had to shake it right before measuring. I switched to cutting off slivers. I have access to a high...
  18. muscle repair and DHT

    I don't think I answered this before. For arimidex I started with 1/4 pill and had bad sides right away (it made me dizzy and feel like crap) so I stopped right away. The text below was copied from my previous thread with the answer for aromasin. Then I started aromasin at just .5mg (yes...
  19. My estrogen is out of range, I need your opinion on why

    Azelaic acid topical treatment will block DHT locally. Maybe not enough for everyone but it works for many.
  20. muscle repair and DHT

    Yes, I think the prostate stuff is better for another thread but it is the back story on why I started Avodart. Running does knock down T levels but this is not usually a permanent reduction. They normally come back after some rest albeit perhaps slower for us over 50 year olds. Avodart...
