  1. Anyman's personal journal: May it help me and others to follow

    How long ago did you see Dr. Shippen? When are you scheduled to go back? Did he suggest your E2 is high?

  2. The Chris Bennoit speculation is out of Control

    How many bodybuilders, wrestlers, football players, etc. take steroids and do not kill their wives, kid, and then themselves? How many men kill their wives, kids, and themselves who are NOT on steroids? What are the statistics - one out of every 250 million in the US per decade? Or less? The...

  3. New Here with questions

    My guess is you have a doctor who considers anything within the range as "normal". Therefore, he ignores your symptoms and treats only the numbers if they are out of range. If you described your symptoms to your doctor and he would not even check your E levels on the first round of BW, you...

  4. Help with Estrogen Question

    Yes, I just started TRT. I would urge you to go to Dr. John because he if anyone can diagnose your problem, my money is on him. With TT=765, you may not need TRT, but with that number your FT should be higher. He will know which tests to run and diagnose the proper treatment from there.

  5. 21 YO Low T Hair is flying off my head! Help!

    Bill Pearl is very much alive and well. He is 76 years old, lives in Oregon and still trains every day. I have not seen any recent photos, but I seem to recall hearing recently that he is in fantastic shape, especially for his age.

  6. Am I just Getting Old?

    You are probably right - you are getting old. It is part of the normal aging process and yes, it sucks. The great thing is you are not like millions of middle-aged men (not that you are one) who feel like you do and their doctor tells them they are just getting older and it goes with the...

  7. Help with Estrogen Question

    GET ANOTHER DOCTOR ASAP! I was in your same situation less than three months ago so I know exactly how you feel. If you stay with the same doctor, you will not see any improvement. He obviously has no interest in treating your symptoms, only the numbers. Meanwhile, your QOL sucks. I found a...

  8. High E, but low E2

    Exactly what situation are you referring to? My E2 was in the "normal" and I felt terrible. Supplements (Dim and Chrysin) were of little help, if any. Arimidex brought my E2 from 36 to 24. I felt a whole lot better. I seems like AI's have helped a lot of guys on this board but maybe you are...

  9. Why is high testosterone unhealthy?

    Maybe this would be too ambiguous to answer, but given a "normal" TT range of 300-1100, what numbers would an average steroid user come in with? 1200, 2200, 3300? Just how far outside the range would one need to be to even put you in the catagory? Probably hard to answer, but I would be real...

  10. aculpep's Lab Work

    On 1mg of Adex per week, my E2 went from 36 to 24 in 6 weeks. My TT increased by 16% and FT increased by 25%. Other have stated that lowering your E2 by too much can produce the same symptoms as too high E2. FWIW, I would start with .25mg - .5mg Arimidex EOD and have your levels checked in 4...

  11. aculpep's Lab Work

    There is a lot of great advice and opinions here, but let me add my $.02 because my symptoms and my situation was somewhat similar to yours. I wanted to correct my situation as quickly as I could but with as little medication as I could. I tried supplements to bring down my E2 (chrysin, dim...

  12. Suggestions, please

    UPDATE: Saw my doctor yesterday. My TT moved up to 719 (250-1100), FT 71 (35-155), and E2 moved down from 36 to 24 (8-43). I should have mentioned that the doctor ordered the full gamet for blood test on my previous appointment. In fact the woman drawing blood said she had never seen so many...

  13. Test Results - Weird

    Why don't you post what city you live in. Perhaps the learned people on this forum know of a doctor who is closer and more reasonable and has a clue about what they are doing.

  14. Suggestions, please

    I thought if the MD would write a script it was all legal. At least thats what Sylvester Stallone said.

  15. Suggestions, please

    That works out to less than $70 per month. Less than most people spend at Starbuck's. Amazing. Thanks for sharing.

  16. Suggestions, please

    That is good news. I thought after six weeks on the Adex I had maxed out the benefits, but if my experience is similar to yours, I may have a ways to go. One thing I did notice was an increas in libido after about two weeks and an improvement after that. Although the last week or so, it seems...

  17. Suggestions, please

    Thanks for all the input. The e2 of 36 was before Adex. I will find out next Monday what the new number is. I am currently taking 1/2 mg twice per week. You are right.My DHEA was low so I started taking 25 mg per day. I am unfamiliar with the Pregnenolone + DHEA cream. I will take a look...

  18. Low testosterone linked to long-term risk of death in over-50s

    It took them 18 years to figure that out? They could have reached the same conclusion after 18 minutes on this forum.

  19. Suggestions, please

    Thanks for the suggestion. Is the HCG alone likely to raise the Testosterone levels that much?

  20. Suggestions, please

    I would appreciate your comments and suggestions regarding my current situation. I am 50 years old. 5' 11". 206# and I have been lifting weights almost daily since I was 17. Two months ago, here's where I was at: no energy, no stamina, no libido, decreasing strength, ED, slight depression...
