Re: need advice for Tuesday endo apointment

[Guest guest]

How are you feeling? If things are fine, then I probably wouldn't

worry about it. If you are still interested in fertility and/or

concerned about testes shrinkage, then you may ask for a small dose

of HCG, i.e. 250 iu's every three days or so. Injections more that

that tends to increase aromatase activity (raise E). Some TRT

doctors also believe that HCG may have other benefits to your body

other than simulating LH. Some people have also stated that they

tend to feel better with a little HCG....good luck

Thanks for the response. I AM feeling pretty good, although

anything is better than I felt when my levels were in the 300's. I

will ask then for a HcG suppliment to the Testim. Thanks!

don't put on the testim less than a few hours before you get your

blood drawn or you could have an artificially high level from the

initial spike after application. happened to me--resulted in

titrating down too far and I felt a bit off. doing great on 5g/day.

I put on a little extra (and an unnecessary levitra) right before I

have sex for a double-whammy boost. this voodoo is probably the

placebo effect and really doesn't do shit for me but a feel like

Brown (minus the coke)!!!
