Re: Testosterone Vial from local Pharmacy Tainted?

May 7, 2009

Do labs if your levels went down take it back to CVS. I never head of this and

get my T shot from the same place. E2 can creap up on you and this can be what

is wrong. Have this checked with your T levels.

The time for feeling horny is a little longer than might be expected if the

following is the reason for the change.

When I started TRT using hormone pellets, after a couple of weeks maybe 3 or 4,

I found erections were almost instantaneous when even minor stimulation was

involved. This lasted 2 to 3 months. Just about the time the pellets ran out. my

age related ED returned. My next set of pellets did not bring a return of easy

erections and of course I was very disappointed.

I asked the doctor and he said this symptom of easy erections occurs when the T

level is ramping up and when it stabilizes at the new higher level, the easy

erections end.

I thought I had found a cure for my ED, but not so. I found a book in the

library by Dr. Irwin Goldstein, Boston Univ. at that time, 1992. No pills

available then. I started trimix injection therapy for my ED and it still works

at 77 at about the same dosage.

Conversion of T to E2 can also ruin the good effects of TRT.

" I know this sounds crazy, but for the past 20 weeks I have been horny as can

be, quick to anger, and something is not right. I have noticed my chest fat

increasing as well. I've thought it could be E2 related, but I find it very

hard to believe that for 20 weeks I felt fine, switch vials and something change

suddenly. "

That sound like T to me, Mine took that long for me to change to that way. My

breasts got bigger too. But when you go off the T you are less horny and better

with anger, but your breasts don't go away. Oh well, I guess that is what we get

for messing with our bodies.

syringe.? i use a 3 ml syringe and the one half ml is clearly marked as such . i
