Unexplained & Persistent Missing Libido

I will be honest with you 100%. My ED is so bad, that this is what I do hours prior to have sex in order to get hard:

  1. I take 20 mg Cialis in the morning.
  2. Through the day I take 2500 L-Argenine
  3. 1 hour before I have sex, I take 60mg of Levitra
    Levitra seems stronger than everything else for me, I just take Cialis to give me an extra boost. I buy all the medications on line, so I’m not sure if they are as strong as the ones you buy at the pharmacy.
    I am in this extreme situation due to a vasectomy 8 years ago. 6 months ago, I found out that I have a varicocele on my left testicle, and a cyst on the right testicle, probably due to the vasectomy. Now sex for me is a chore, I have to take so much shit to get it up. I’m about to give up, and don’t have sex anymore. At this point, I will prefer to have a vagina lol

You seem doing great with your protocol. What is your current protocol?. I will do it, if it doesn’t work, I’m done

It happened to me too, that is why I went back to injections. Plus my girlfriend was getting transferred even 8 hours after my application

200mg/week daily IM. Results may vary

For how long are you on the protocol?.How long it took you to feel optimal?. Thank you for your time

8 weeks felt good, 12 weeks felt great. No two people are the same so you may have a different experience which is why I try not to push my own protocol. I worked from 100-200mg using 20mg increments with at least 8 weeks on each one.

Very smart. I wonder why all the TRT clinics here in Arizona usually give one shot a week. Seems like on TRT I have to figure out things on my own. My practioner never mentioned EOD or ED injections, it pissed me off that these people are making money not knowing shit

He never told you about daily shots because then he’d have to instruct you how to do it on your own, I.e. no more office visits AND the ability to bill you.

These clinics do it for profit, this is a business and if they can milk you extra for administering the injections, they will. The first question I would ask if do you allow self injections at home and provide the vials and not pre-loaded syringes. If the answer is no to either, I would get up and walk out saying a word.

A lot of the time these clinics that take insurance can charge your insurance a fee for administering the injections.

I always inject on my own.

I inject at home.

Do EOD injections have less conversion to E2 than twice a week?or depends of your SHBG?

I have never heard one report in men who have high SHBG where EOD dosing made them lose the benefits of TRT do to rising SHBG levels, in fact some require it due to not being able to keep levels elevated between dosing.

I don’t think just because someone has high SHBG that it means they can’t benefit from daily or EOD dosing, everyone is different. There are members with high SHBG that report feeling swings in levels on infrequent dosing just like a low SHBG guy, but what it means is there are just sensitive to fluctuations between dosing.

Thank you very much. You are always very helpful

Can someone help me and take a look at my labs please. I did a full thyroid pannel

This is with me being on clomid 50mg ED

Conversion is all about available free T and available aromatase enzyme. Less enzyme, less conversion, less free T less conversion. Daily or EOD will give you avoid spikes and give you a fairly steady conversion rate, you won’t have wild high free T and then a crash down. Over time you may have less enzyme, as most guys going onTRT have some fat from being low T and there is enzyme stored in it, but you’ll burn it off over time with better T levels.

My only problem on TRT is erections. I’m very fit, I look really good, I have energy, sleep well… But my erections are getting worst despite having high TT, FT and E2. My DHT is the only thing that is not high. I am on 200mg test a week divided in two doses, on Wednesday I will start doing 60mg test EOD and Proviron 50 ED, I will drop the HCG. What I know, is I will never take Anastrazole. If it doesn’t work, I will lower my dose

Your estrogen is likely really high on your protocol.

Lower your dose before trying to add other components to your protocol first.

Can anyone take a look at those labs for me and tell me what you guys think about my thyroid so far?

Your thyroid looks fine. Nothing crazy that I can see.
