Ik this is unlikely. But heart issue symptoms involve retaining water. Especially with that low bp maybe get an ekg and echocardiogram.

I smoked until I was 30 (47 now) and following that I had exercise induced asthma where only when my heart rate increased would I have an asthma attack. That subsided about 4-5 years ago but I keep an inhaler around for when I feel the chest tighten up a little bit. I sometimes take a precautionary puff before HIIT cuz it sucks when you tighten up mid-workout. But before this season I probably only used it once or twice a year. Lately Ive been using it a couple times a week. Its just albuterol so there is no physical addiction or diminished effect based on use.

500mg per week? Cycle time?

I’m 6 weeks off my last blast right now. Pulled bloodwork this morning. Nice big panel. Lots of viles filled. I’m cruising 150 mg per week right now. Dropping to 100 mg per week as of today. Gonna run cruise lower from now on. @Singhbuilder has convinced me its the way to go.

Why so low that’s painful no need bro.

It’s always estrogens fault.

I know your being sarcastic and I dont blame e2. I’m not sure what the mechanism is or how important it is. E2 does upregulate serotonin in the brain and serotonin inhibits orgasm which is my main motivation. Its not that I cant its just very difficult right now.

Ya I increased some estrogens via HCG and my sensitivity is back and Better libido. It’s amazing.

I think HCG works because estrogen is created in different tissues in the body. So trt injections might not create enough in the testicles and sex organs . Maybe that’s why HCG works for libido and sensitivity as many report. Again this is anecdotal evidence but makes sense based on what I’ve been learning about estrogens.

Ohnand it’s 200 in every 3rd day

200 mcg? Is that how hcg is measured?

ā€œUnitsā€

Usually a vial comes with 5000 units in powder form, so you add 5ml bacteriostatic water to get 1000 units per ml, which makes the math easy on 100 unit per ml insulin syringes

IU so 150-250iu works for me. I like 200iu it’s just enough. 250 I notice an increase in libido fast.

I want to find more data on this. I read a study about estrogen the other day and how every tissue, including bones have their on estrogen production for itself. Meaning the estrogen test is not accurate, and some parts of the body have less than it needs. That’s where I drew the correlation with hcg and libido.

Im on the same dose and feeling great on 100mg a week.

Do you have a low shbg or something. 100mg works for you that’s good. I guess your free t improves well with tbstbfise.

SHBG = 27. I have been on up 225mg of t-cyp a week and never FELT any better than I do right here. So if double the dose, and double the numbers isn’t actually buying me anything then why bother?
