    I didn't exactly do super cycles. I think that most will end up shuuting down their natural ability to produce test.

    I don't think thatsupplemental test is a bad thing. That's why I did it in the first place. My life is far better with test. I feel youthful everyday, I'm strong, and have a great body

    All I know is that when I was on my last cycle (mostly low dose) I was a completely different person. Forget what I looked like. My mood swings were gone, I was much more relaxed, I had tons of energy, and my SEX DRIVE was unreal. I overal just felt unreal!!!!!

    Yep. Me too. For all the 20 year old newbies thinking about doing a cycle. That is when you know that it's time. Wait until your late 30's.

    I agree. It's like the old saying "...leave well enough alone."

    What do you get from your doctor, and how much and how often?

    Thanks.

    Here's an interesting article on HRT:

    I'm printing this article out and I'm going to make my Dr. read it. It will help me convince my Dr. to give me weekly injections! Boy after reading this, It convinces me even more how bad I need HRT..

    Example:

    Testosterone levels might even be associated with a decrease in visuospatial functioning and a deterioration of verbal skills.(3)
    There are also direct relationships between lowered testosterone levels and impaired memory, inability to concentrate, periodic sweating, reduction of muscle mass and power, bone aches, and last—but certainly not least—sexual dysfunction.(4) You may even get the uncontrollable urge to watch "The View" or "Oprah." Quite obviously, none of these effects are desirable. We want to eliminate the effects entirely for as long as possible, or we want to lessen them as much as possible for as long as we can."


    When I saw the loss of verbal skills, I almost passed out. That seems to be HUGE with me lately. I stumble for words sometimes..Even when typing, I have to go back re read what I typed and edit it. And for loss of memory? I can go to a movie the night before look at the previews and the next day I can't remember one of them. Everything in the above describes me so much it's scary.


    Thanks for the article.

    Keep in mind that most doctors (and serious researches...) prefer primary sources, rather than articles such as this. So, I would recommend finding the original (primary) sources and studies and print and use those.

    BLT, this article may also be of some assistance in your effort:

    Your Doctor Your Dealer

    Let me know what you think.

    That article (Your Doctor Your Dealer) is not directly related, but it may have a tip or two. I'm not suggesting the use of the whole article - as it relates some to fooling tests et cetera...

    Oh, it is a mail-order doctor arrangement. Yes, I have seen a few of them out there on the web. Whatever legitimately works. I noticed that their prices are quite high, and they love to frequent the lab work at a premium.

    How do you like your arrangement? Do you have to pay a lot?

    I did my labs before HRT and 10 weeks after first shot. Labs covered by my health insuranse, $0.00 from my pocket Doc's consultation&prescription $150. 1 vial of test cyp - $100.

    It's interesting that you quoted my post and still called it a joke.

    Yeah, most of the articles that I find...I scroll down to the references to see what the primary sources are...
