Kindly help me prepare for possible TRT
I have done the full investigation recently with a full blood/ hormone panel, prostate exame, heart check and BP check (162/82).
Have answered a bunch of questions and tomorrow Sunday night, I will get the answer if I am allowed to go on TRT or not.
Here in Sweden it's very very hard to get, so I tried my luck with a private clinic for this.
Unfortunately, they only have these options to choose from legally.
- Testogel
- Nebido (Testosterone undecanoate - injection 6th or 12th week)
My panel 6 weeks ago done in Thailand showed all was within normal range, with SHBG a little low.
The clinic stated that even if it was "normal", my Total T was a little low for my age (32 years old).
So they have re-tested me and I won't get to see it before tomorrow.
I feel most negative effect on drive, libido, confidence and anxiety (worry more) currently. On a cycle I feel blessed, happy for less, horny and confidence in all, so I
feel it has to be a hormonal issue.
They say I won't have any issues getting a baby in the future when I want that, and they can test and help me there.
How is Nebido and what do you guys on TRT recommend?Last edited by Fiskevatten; 11-14-2020 at 12:07 PM.

Since I’m in Sweden temporarily I must be in luck. Got an appointment with a specialist who was 74-years old and had been doing this forever. Super relaxed guy. Told him what I was taking in India and he said they used to have testoviron in Sweden also but switched to Nebido. Guy literally told me to not change anything if I was able to get what I was taking but said if I really wanted he be happy to help me get the protocol for Nebido correct. I opted for my own.
I think Sil is on Nebido so he would be good to get input from.

Well, it seems I was not entitled to TRT in Sweden. My blood panel was all good and normal.
The Total T test from Thailand showed low numbers according to their references, but in Sweden I had right in the middle and therefor not
allowed to get help.
They stated that it can be my androgen receptors being out of wack or needing more, but to get that testet sounded to be equal to
figure our a safe way for lightspeed travel for humans.
Back to square one.

Vet du hva lh fsh testosteron og sbhg er.?
Mine verdier er 3lh 3 fsh testosteron 14 sbhg 31
Virker som det er ganske lavt.
Do you know what lh fsh testosterone and sbhg are.?
My values are 3lh 3 fsh testosterone 14 sbhg 31
Seems like it's pretty low.

Testosteron 19
SHBG 38
LH 5.3
TSH 2.6
Östradiol 162
T4 15
Det var det jag fick, men utan referensvärden.
Resultaten var mycket högre i Sverige än jag fick i Thailand, så hänger inte riktigt med.
Äter testosteron höjande naturpreparat, men det borde ju inte ge effekt så?

Testo fra 8 til 35. 19 er bra.
Shbg 38 er passe greit. 8 til 60.
Testo følger shbg sånn ca.
Kommer ann på trening og livsstil.
Fritt testosteron er testo 19x10 / sbgh 38 = 5
Fritt testo er nok litt lavt, men innefor standard verdier.
Lave sbgh er bra som du målte i Thailand.
Gir høy fritt testo.
Det er fritt testosteron som har alt å si.
Du har ca like verdier som meg. Litt bedre.
Jeg er nå 41.
Nivåene våres ligger godt innenfor normalen og rart du fikk testogel / nebido.
For trt doser vil du nok bare ødelegge selvproduksjonen din og erstatte den med litt mer testo utenifra??
Mulig også med hrt. Øker egenproduksjonen av testo, ikke krasje egenproduksjonen med syntetisk testo.
Greit hvis du skal gjøre dama gravid som meg
Ikke expert, men stusset till på at du fikk testo?
Ellers har jeg blitt overbevist over at mine egne verdier er mye bedre enn de egentlig er ???
De ligger nok i lavere delen, men 35 i testo er uvanlig hos 20 åringer. Må nesten ta tilskudd for disse verdiene i følge urologen jeg har pratet med.
19 er jo greit. Litt høy sbhg. Hypofyse verdiene lh og fsh/tsh ser jo helt ok ut. Brokk i testikkel? Spørs om testo hadde vært 19 da?
Sædkvalitetet din?
Normal ?
Østrogen påvirker sbhg. Kroppsfett, alkohol og div påvirker østrogen. Kjenner ikke igjen måleenheten for ditt østrogen, regner med at du ikke har162 når målenheten går fra 0.00 til 0.17 nmol/L
Du får bla deg litt frem og tilbake på sidene her inne for å se hva andre måleenheter har som standard verdi?
Det er 2 forskjellige måleenheter for testo ihvertfall.
Hvis du får dette litt ned er nok alt som det skal være.
Lurt litt på å booste testo litt selv også, men lege sier at normalverdier er bra og mer lh fsh vil ikke alltid si mer testo.
Kommer litt ann på om det er hypofysen eller testiklene som er problemet?
Hvis sækvælitet er bra er stort sett alt på stell.
Hormonet i kroppen varierer mye i løpet av døgnet. Prøvene skal tas tidlig på morgenen fastende, etter en god natts søvn. Søvn kan påvirke en del.
Flere målinger må tas for å finne en middelverdi. Sikkert derfor variasjonene fra thailand og Sverige.
Spiller heller ingen stor rolle, hvis du skulle fått testo 2, lh 0.2og fsh 0.5.
Er dette en bedre forklaring på at du har behov for trt.
Gjerne etter langvarig steroidebruk.

Ja det verkar som nivåerna är helt okej, därav undrar jag om mina androgenreceptorer är utslagna tack vare steroider i bakgrunden.
Då kan det vara så att jag behöver mycket mer än normalt för att vara "normal". Däremot verkar det omöjligt att få råd och hjälp här i Sverige.
Jag kan få hjälp i andra länder mot en kostnad, men behandlingarna blir olagliga så fort jag hamnar på svensk mark. Det bli särskilt jobbigt om det nu blir för resten av livet.
Jag jämför mig själv med hur jag mådde innan jag började med steroider och även hur jag mår under tiden jag är på, det är som natt och dag.
Hade inga andra fel, röker inte, dricker sällan, inga sjukdomar, och är 32 år. Har inte mycket fett heller på kroppen, så det gick inte hem^^
Testiklar, hypofysen var alla bra.
Tog testet på morgonen innan frukost.
Vet inte hur det är i Norge? Är de hjälpsamma där gällande hormonbehandlingar?
Lite orolig att jag kanske tvingas medicinera mig själv.

Du kommer nok til å høre av legene her i Norge at hormonene dine ikke er grunnen til dine plager.
Uten å gidde å finne ut hva grunnen er?
Jo flere spørsmål du stiller jo mer irriterte og tilbakevisende er dem.
Så her i Norge må man fikse det meste selv.
Må ha veldig lave verdier. Godt under normalen for å få hjelp her.
Først vil de prøve med livsstilsendring.
Vil nok sikkert føle deg bedre med litt ekstra testo,
Men spørs jo faktisk også om dette er hovedgrunnen for plagene dine.Last edited by Osten; 11-19-2020 at 07:54 AM.

Låter som Sverige på pricken! Antingen är det köldkörteln, fett eller så är det psykiskt.
Även de på privatkliniken berätta att de kämpar hela tiden för att få förändring, men lagarna
sätter käppar i hjulet för dom.
Jag kommer troligtvis självbehandla mig, det känns som man tvingas till det.
Inte optimalt, men fungerar.

Thought I'd revive this thread instead of creating a new one, and advice would be very much appreciate since I feel lost.
I was denied TRT as I wrote earlier, what is weird is that they focused entirely on the T parameters, not the E2.
The last 4 weeks has been a roller coaster of mood swings, anxiety and back-acne that on some days becomes inflamed cysts, all worse than when I started the check.
Of course Covid situation is somewhat to blame, but it doesn't affect me much.
Looking back at the tests, I can see that everything looks normal except E2 with a range of 40 - 161 pmol/L and I have 162 pmol/L.
When I left Thailand, which was weeks after PCT, my E2 was in the lower 10s, in other words - it has exploded.
This last week, the mood is a little better and acne a little better (still all over tho, but not inflamed), but I feel damn sensitive to everything randomly, and
I can't keep a social conversation without tensing up - which is not me.
I have three choices (only one let me do BW without police being called):
1) Wait a few months to possibly get Aromasin and medicate the E2 down. I can't self-medicate it since I won't be allowed to get bw in that case.
2) Self medicate and start my next cycle which was planned february
3) Self medicate TRT and start a life always on to an extent
2+3 might get be kicked out of the gym, but I haven't seen a random pee check in years.
I feel so clueless since professional help is out of the question here, so any advice is highly appreciated

Checked Arimistane and there isn't a single shop selling it here. I found one that is Swedish machine translated, but not from Sweden.
Some forums mentioned using that after Ostarine use, no clue if that is right. Whilst others say it doesn't work compared to e.g. an AI.
Have no experience at all with DIIM, will be sure to take a look at that, thank you!
I am 33 very shortly, so it's young to start TRT.
I didn't get any reference intervals, I had to Google each.
Testosterone 19 nmol/L (over 12 is healthy apparently)
E2 162 pmol/L (reference 40 - 161 pmol/L)
SHBG 38nmol/L
TSH 2.6 mE/L
LH 5.3 E/L
T4 15 pmol/L
HB 162 g/L
Leucytes 7.0 10(9)/L
EVF 0.47
Erythrocytes 5.4 10(12)/L
Thrombocytes 243 10(9)/L
MCV 87 fL
MCH 30 pg
MCHC 345 g/L
PSA 0.6 ug/L
ASAT 0.48 microcat/L
ALAT 0.44 microcat/L
GT 0.32 microcat/L
Bilirubin 13 micromol/L
Creatinine 102 micromol/L
HbA1C 32 mmol/L
Cholesterol 3.5 mmol/L
LDL 2.31 mmol/L
HDL 1.24 mmol/L
Triglyceride 0.57 mmol/L
These are all the results I received 2020-10-28
According to them, they stated that my T is fully normal and in those cases they look at the bloodpanel, which is apparently normal as well.
They didn't mention the E2 at all.
They stated that my receptors might be out of wack from AAS use, and that can make a normal un-normal for me, but legally they can't help.
I might get a time for E2 check February as it seems now.

Fantastic, I appreciate it! I will give Arimistane a try first and see how I feel, if that works I might be "saved".
Besides that, feels odd to say, but seems I will get to cycle until I finally deserve help here. Feels unnecessary to do TRT illegally when I can cycle illegally, be legal during PCT and later on get legal help lol

Arimistane arriving today! Excited!
I read half life was only 2-4 hours, not sure how to divide it best?

Thank you! Well, that is the next problem, I can't get blood because I want it or legally, I need to find an excuse at a certain point to convince them to test it.
I guess try a few weeks as you suggested, if it does work and I do feel better (I bet backne will be the first sign to go down), I'll give em a call and ask.

This is amazing! Thank you man! so after less than two days, all my inflammation on acne is gone on back, and they have shrunk a lot.
Seems E2 was the culprit there at least.
Got hope back
