75 y.o test c results

[clemont51]

Though blessed with perfect health I decided to up the ante. Blood chemistry is all normal. Very strong, very, very, fit from years of excericse,mtn.climbing,etc. Height 5'8", weight 157lbs.

Two months ago I began injecting test c, initial shot was 150mg every two weeks. (I also have taken DHEA 50mg daily for a number of years.) Also taking
10mg tamoxifin daily. After a couple of weeks noticed some nipple tenderness
and an apparent slight shrinkage of testicles.

Dropped the DHEA and that seemed to end the nipple tenderness. Workouts are being done with more aggessiveness and some noticeable growth in shoulders. My testosterone level without test last year was 550 on a scale of
200 to 900. Last week it tested at 850 on the same scale.

The moral of this is that test c has some benefits if administered carefully.
Is there any cautionary comments or whatever?

Ok, What benefits? Why did you start taking Test? How do you feel now?

[clemont51]

Experimenting. And not a very good subject. Pre-T testosterone
level was 550. I was hoping that up the level would make some
significant improvement in overall feeling. Nothing to warrant
taking T at these low levels in my case. I will again start on
on DHEA 50mg. I have a slightly enlarged postate controlled with
saw palmetoo. Perhaps a test subject with lower initial level of
T would see dramatic changes. Apparently there are substantial
numbers undergoing the therapy as the clinics appear to be busy.

Welcome to the board.

Thank you. Glad to have found the site.

My comments are

Keep your diet as clean as possible.

Get Bloodwork done every 6 mths.

Check that prostate every 3 mths.

If you just started injecting, you should notice a BIG difference within 6 weeks.

Good luck...

There is nothing wrong with what you are doing. I have lots of older friends and I wish they or their physician would be open to the approach you have taken. GH might be another avenue for you but you are here and you can read all about the subject.
Be well.
Oh the prostrate thing, protect it. maybe try adjusting some saw palmetto into you diet. That would be something i would read up on.
I would also read up on ketogic diets, or diet in general. there is a great set of instructional videos by in the diet section. I think it is called so you want to learn how to diet. The guy explains diet it wonderfully.

Thanks folks for making me welcome. I had a PSA done after using the test c for about
six weeks. It was a 1.7. I have noticed substantial growth in upper body even at that
low dosage. Diet? I've watching what I eat for 40 years. Weight varies over those years
between 149 and 160lbs. Currently 158. I am still not taking DHEA 50mg, a dosage I had used prior to the test. Taking plenty of saw palmetto among the usual assortment of antioxidents, etc.
