That’s called palpitations. Lots of people get them, especially at night when lying in your back. Usually it’s not a cause for concern and can be explained / caused by the days activities (drinking alcohol, eating large amounts of HGI carbs, hard workouts, etc…), but with the recent changes in your hormone profile, and if you’ve never experienced this before and now all of a sudden you do, it could very well be sign of trouble to come. You may want to get a thorough physical and heart exam just to be on the safe side, and even more so if you feel any kind of irregularity when it’s happening (heart flutter).
You may be right about the palpitation part. I’m thinking once the body gets use to the changes it will ease up.
I know you’re only concerned for me and I appreciate it but it’s not as bad you may be thinking. It just seems to beating alot louder. Or I can sense it. Where as I never use too. I’m about to go to bed and checked HR for you. It was 65.
It never misses a beat or becomes irregular or flutters. If it did. Then I’d definitely be concerned I could be about to suffer heart failure.
I’m an avid drag racer. I drive a truck for a living. I box. And I’ve been on drug fuelled 3 day plus sex benders numerous times in the past. Amongst plenty of other crazy adrenaline fuelled things. My heart has been pumping way above the norm for abnormally extended periods of time on those occasions.
It regularly gets put through its paces, at the track, in the gym or on the open road and in traffic if I’m frustrated.
My heart is not doing anything abnormal. Just seems to have a stronger beat as it adjusts to having some testosterone flowing through my veins again.
Numerous cancers, heart disease, diabetes. They’ve claimed all of my grandparents, some Aunties, Uncles and I suspect my parents will go the same way. None of these people are or were overweight. Poor diets for sure. It runs in the family. Strokes. Etc etc. Your going to die the day you die. That’s it. I’m not one to live my life worrying about things like that. I’ve quit alcohol. Cleaned up my diet. I’ve always exercised regularly. So if I Cark it at 50 from a heart attack whilst pounding some bird. I’m OK with that.
Like I said if I was having having heart flutters. Then I’d be concerned I was going to suffer heart failure. But I’m fairly certain it’s OK. It’s been through much worse over the years. Cheers brady.
It sounds like you have some history of heart disease in your family. I have the same situation but I guess I just look at things a little differently than you do. I was an adrenaline junkie growing up too…rode motocross, etc. Like you, I believe that when it’s your time it’s your time, but I’ve grown up since. I realize that you can’t beat the system, but you can damn sure move the timeline up. You can’t make me believe that guy that jumps over a cliff was “pre destined” to die that day. He chose to cut it short.
Now this is just my experience and the things I’ve come to believe, but I have realized in my own life that “pushing the limits” is very selfish. I have a wife. I have two kids. If I don’t give a shit if I live or die (it’s my life right?), then I’m cheating them. My family. What kind of selfish dick would I be if I left my wife, the woman who gave me her life and trusted me to be her provider in this world, just because I chose to be a dumbass? What kind of father would I be to my children if I didn’t give a shit if I lived long enough to someday see their kids be born, my grandchildren?
We are both right, when it’s our time there’s no getting around it, but I will let that come at it’s own pace. In the meantime, I’ll try everything in my power to make sure that I stay alive, and as healthy as possible. Not just for me, but for them.
I’m not trying to meddle in your business bro. Far be it from me to tell someone else how to live their life. And I know that you or anybody else here could probably give two shits less about my philosophy. I just told you all that so you would know at least where I’m coming from. From a standpoint of concern. Hopefully some kind of voice of reason maybe?
Maybe you feel the same…maybe you don’t. Maybe you just haven’t lived long long enough for this type of shit to even matter? Maybe you have (I have no idea how old you are or what experiences you’ve had in life). I can tell you this though…
If what I’m saying doesn’t make any sense to you right now, then I hope to God that someday you have the type of joy and fulfillment in your life that you look back on this paragraph and you know what I’m talking about!
Nah you’re all good bro. I completely understand where you’re coming from. I’m not ignorant lmao. I’m 29 by the way. How old are you? Born in 77? .
Yeah we are different in that sense. All of my mates have started families. But I will not be. Its not for me. I will be looking for a long term partner that does not want children either. I totally understand where you’re coming from. I like you’re advice. You’re not annoying me dw.
You have made me think more about my hypo thyroid issue that I’m beginning to suspect I have though. Otherwise the ticker may never settle properly. And all of these hormone issues may never regulate. On their own or with TRT.
I of course do want to live as long as possible. Don’t get me wrong. But I don’t have dependants to be concerned for. And I never been one to be concerned about things you don’t know. Or can’t control. I understand you can control you’re life in a sense with your health. But do you know what I’m saying. I think we understand each other in that regard. 100% respect to your life values. And I’m always up for advice mate. That’s why I joined this site. But that’s just me. Even my family thinks I’m mad. Lol.
Anyhow. I’m a very happy, out there, boisterous kind of fellah. But after cleaning my act up recently. I really noticed how my low T was effecting my quality of life. I’ve always had test levels checked over the years since using AAS. Thinking something was not right. They’ve always been low but I never pursued it further as most of the bad feelings of low T had just been masked by booze and whatnot for all these years.
I reckon the thyroid issue started after that too. But I never noticed it until recently. So I really need to get on top of that.
I may be able to get my HPTA functioning well enough too not need TRT doses. So this will all be ensued over the next weeks, months. I know there’s no sense in me starting TRT until I fix all the other avenues first and assess myself again. But I needed to do something quickly in regards to my quality of life from hormonal imbalance. So ill let play out a bit longer. Plus I’m using hcg now to see if I can reverse teste atrophy. So I’ll already be shutdown from that. So I don’t see a big deal with it. You got any advice on that side of things hahaha?
I do know that I’m starting to feel better from the TRT doses of course that’s for sure. But that’s a given. So in the mean time. For now. I’m happy with that, whilst I pursue correcting thyroid and liver function.
Have you felt the need to use an AI yet? Or are you still riding the good wave?
You seem like you have a pretty clear thinking head on your shoulders. When you make a decision then that’s just what it’s going to be! Lol
That’s not a bad quality at all man. I respect that a ton. It’s a shame that you don’t want to pass down some of what is the last bit of “off the cuff” common sense type logic forming left in this world to a family of your own.
On that note…
If you’re not thinking that you ever want a family, then why the HCG? Is it just a personal hangup about the “boys” not hanging low?
I haven’t had to use any AI’s and have had no symptoms of E2. I started at 50mg E3.5D and that’s where I’ve stayed. Haven’t introduced anything else yet and I have to say that I feel pretty damn stable. I didn’t get that whole “rush” and massive changes all at once thing that some guys get. More of a slow steady “feel a bit better every day” thing, but again, no E2 spikes and no need for any other drugs.
My next bloods are scheduled for October 30th (8 week mark). I’ll review from there and see if I need to tweak a little.
Cheers man . Hahaha. Not going to go into too much about why I don’t want children. There’s lots of reasons I guess. Not one specific thing.
Anyway. Yeah. Well this is where I could maybe give you some advice . Hahaha. In regards to teste atrophy.
As I said in previous posts to others members. My balls fluctuate alot. Like they could be the size of small chicken eggs and hanging decently enough. And other times. Particularly in sex. They can try and hide. And it can become uncomfortable. And certainly doesn’t look good with like just a scrotum of rough skin and no balls there in front of a new girl. It can be uncomfortable too. I hope the hCG can help in that regards. It’s been a few days on it. And I think I am starting to notice they’re hanging more and at night time I can literally feel like light stimulation happening. So I think it’s starting to work in the sense of mimicking LH production. I hope they continue to hang further which would stop them from rising so far in sex and sometimes just generally.
hCG doesn’t mimic FSH. Which is more for fertility. So it won’t help that anyway. As far as I know. I could be wrong.
So if you experience atrophy. Use it in small doses. Some say all time. Some say cycle it. There’s alot of myths about hCG usage.
But I can tell you that atrophy can be painful and uncomfortable and if you can avoid it. Why wouldn’t you, you know.
Everyone’s different. You may never experience any atrophy or enough to even bother you. So see how you go.
Lots of people won’t agree with me. It may have even been you telling me to put the AI’s on the top shelf for now and forget about them.
But for me. I’ve already had use them
I felt good after first shot. And then just down and down after that. Feeling exactly as I was before the TRT doses.
So now with the Armidex. I’m starting to feel great again. Even better then the first shot. As T Levels are beginning to rise as well.
But I must be careful. And try stick to the 1mg per 100ml method now and see how I can try get myself on roughly the same dose each week of armidex. I clearly aromatase alot.
If you’re continuing to feel good. Then all power to you. I wouldn’t touch an AI either.
I was already getting nipple stags. Not sensitive yet. But. They would of become that way if I didn’t take any armidex. Guaranteed.
I’m off brother. Its 2am here. We have a public holiday tomorrow. So I don’t have to get up early. But I’m off. Take care. Talk soon

I would just like to hear what your thoughts are on the subject. Anyone with real life experience on the subject?
To everyone out there. There’s no need to flame each other with differing views. It doesn’t need to turn into a war of words with each other.
Just your thoughts or experiences with dosages/feelings/bloodwork and anything you want to chuck in about hCG and its POSSIBLE Leydig cell desensitisation. Cheers
Nah, i break shit on the Circuit let alone on a strip. The MR has a dual wet clutch. 5k a set of clutches. I just hit up the mountains and the highway drags.
I cant be trusted on a bike either, love my standups and night time runs with the boys. The bike does a 10.5
Yea i wish i had a 4g63 if i did the money i have spent i would have a street driven 1000hp car. Unfortunately the X is a 4b11. Made the mistake of trying to save 5k in the build and didnt sleeve the block so im tq limited.
Im at 333kw on pump 98, yet to retune E85 but hoping for just shy of 400kw so i dont need to rebuild my trans, tcase and diff.
My experience is limited and was in a time of my life where i was all over the place. I know i was getting blood work done. But since changing states my new GP nor I have been able to track down my long history of blood tests. If i eventually track them down i can share with you.
I’m trying to find a doctor atm who is happy to prescribe it for me. May have found 1 in Brisbane, but i won’t know till i go for an appointment. If not ugl it is.
I can literally feel it stimulating my nuts. Especially at night time.
My balls seem to hanging a little lower. It’s definitely working but. I can feel stimulation.
The more I concentrate on my nuts this past few weeks. I think my problem may not be teste size so much as to a problem with retracting testicles.
Me, personally. I’m a sex machine. Eveh with low T. Over all these years. I never have a problem with becoming horny. It hasn’t effected me in that way.
