Any blood work Chris? Without it you're guessing. Don't talk yourself into ED.

No blood work, I've posted on other threads I can't get any done ATM. But believe me I'm trying not to talk myself into it, it's not mental at all, it's there 100% for sure, when I'm with my girl it use to be ready at a moments notice, now it's a bitch even staying up.

Your cycle is squared away?
Cialis handy?

Cycle I squared away, on week 7 right now, start week 8 monday, basic first cycle protocol per austinites article, I've been looking into sildenafil (cialis) and tidalifil (viagra) from arr, and I've been debating on which one to choose, because I know I'f I'm having this problem now than I will definitely need some throughout my pct.

I would choose cialis any day. Lasts longer, works quicker.

Thanks for looking out kel, I still want to get my e2 in check, I don't want to run cialis to fix limp dick which would just be covering up the underlying issue, I guess I'm going to start running 0.5 mg eod and hopefully by the time my cialis arrives I will have it under control.

Get some BW done Chris. This is the time that you learn what is and isn't working for you and takes out all the guessing. It sets you up for success with future cycles.

I wish I could but I seriously cant, believe me I'd love to get some done but in my area it would be way to difficult.

I will look into tbat man! But I'm already about to start week 8, would it even be worth it?

**kelkel** · 01-15-2015, 07:47 AM

Yes, perfect time actually. See where you're at and learn from it. Like I said, it sets you up for success in the future.

At a minimum if possible:

CBC
CMP
Total T
Free T
E2

.50mgs e3d would be the next logical step if necessary. A slight increase in AI can make a huge dif.

Kel has been pretty patient guiding you through the process of getting bloods and what to look for. Why disregard his advice when he also correctly points out how it's just a guessing game without the blood work?

**Mr.BB** · 01-15-2015, 02:08 PM

Nobody can give you an accurate dosing without BW numbers.

If you dont do the BW you are on your own in chosing the dosage. Ppl can only tell their personal experience which can be different than yours. Myself feel good with 0,5mg eod, even higher I dont feel the crashed e2 syntoms some guys feel, we are all different. 0,5 puts me between 10-20 pg/mL with which I feel great, maybe need to increase it cause sex drive is through the roof lol

As doc said .......you have been given advice. If you can't get bloods then you are going to have to play the guessing game, monitor your symptoms and adjust in small amounts. Its this or bloodwork, no middle ground.

**Bodacious** · 01-16-2015, 12:20 AM

Listen to Kel for sure. He know his stuff and a great person to work with on this stuff.

**cttoasn** · 01-16-2015, 10:01 PM

Dude, just get bloods already.
