Hormonal routes for fast oxidizers..

With this TEI cycle coming to an end in a couple of weeks, I'll come to the conclusion whether to continue or jump on a hormonal route. Strongly leaning towards the latter, but I have trouble finding the right hormone protocol seeing I am low in pretty much all hormones. Taking one usually lowers others, so I am pretty torn about that. I'll happily be a guinea pig here and try stuff as long as it fits my body type.

Lots of horror stories regarding triptorelin. It should restart the axis, but plenty have found out it ended up dropping their hormones even further. Fucking with hormones is always risky, but this doesn't seem safe.

Is DHT + estrogen + 1A blocker something worth trying for me?

@Admiral Do you feel the hair mineral balancing has been worthwhile? You look like you've done more than anyone. Honest opinion?

Lol he’s going to bash it cuz it hasn’t helped him sexually.

But one thing I recall from him saying. He’s gone from taking a dump every other day to now twice a day.

I’m sorry, but whoever you are it youre making infrequent bowel movements to that degree or you have chronic diarrhea, chronic gut issues, you’re never going to beat pfs.

Fix your gut before you go hormonal is my best advice.

So I’m hoping that ARL has set him up for better things to come.

Being fast oxidizer and assuming high cortisol for you @Admiral RU just makes sense. See how @jinstewart does on the high dose maybe.

I’ve said time and time again here that RU followed by low dose prog cycles pushed my baseline far ahead. I was slow oxy though post fast when I did this .

If I compare myself with how I was 14 months ago, I can't honestly name something noteworthy that has improved. Even the more frequent stools were just a side effect from the TEI supplements. It's back to normal now. Also, my cortisol is low as well.

I’m sorry to hear that man and sorry for jumping in there.

I’m sick as a dog right now too major set backs after a couple liver flushes killed my digestion. A stupid laxative colon cleanse just killed me afterward and now I have to go into a 5 day water fast and pray to god I can shit after before in start treating SIBO.

Dude have organic acids test done ASAP. Just do it. I guarantee there’s some sort of foreign organism, overgrowth in your body causing this distress.

You have health issue to have gut issue to that degree. This isn’t just pfs if you’re such a non responder with gut issue to that degree.

@Admiral

let's figure out what is suppressing you .


may be you can tell me what you feel on clomid?


does taking clomid start the axis?


Also have you tried anti androgen?


anti cortisol?

I'm sure you tried many things. I wonder what starts your axis?

I tried clomid and nolvadex, but used both very shortly. Didn't really notice anything other than it gave me even more eye floaters, which have never gone away.
Anti androgens/cortisol scares me. But at this point I am willing to try everything. Any suggestion is more than welcome.

Testosterone, growth hormones, DHEA, pregnenolone, cortisol + thyroid hormones; most actually did something, but nothing stuck. DHEA was the most potent one of the bunch.

I did not ask you what you feel good or bad on . I asked what starts your axis? meaning what raised your test levels ?

did clomid raise your test levels?

I haven't got the flu in over a decade. Just a few colds here and there. Never fever.

I could try and report back.

Test-boosting supplements actually increased my T, but didn't stick.

Admiral, there is something which is suppressing your axis


It could be estrogen, it could be DHT, it could be progesterone. or cortisol, or canabinoid receptor. May be this the reason DHEA worked.

Sucks DHEA crashed me in the end.

I don't know where to start, but clomid is something I dare to try again.

Ordered triptorelin (100mg), clomid and tribulus. Will try to kickstart my hormones that way and report back with blood levels.

Hope so. Just still searching how and in which order I should take this.

Anyone now other sources for triptorelin? The site I ordered from seems to get mostly bad reviews with non working supplements. Shit is hard to come by but I have my eyes set on it now.

100mg??

"My first shot was 100 mcg. I did the shot around noon and actually started to have something of a sex drive by the end of the day. The next morning I woke up with morning wood for the first time in a few years. I also started taking 20 mg of pharma nolva per day. I continued the nolva for 6 weeks 20/20/20/10/10/10 and started an OTC ai for 4 weeks after the last nolva dose.

I did a second injection of 100 mcg of triptorelin 30 days after the first. It seemed to push things up even more.

Anyway, I know there isn't a lot of information about triptorelin out there so in my experience small doses were effective for me. I believe it has its place in PCT but I don't think it should be used alone."
