welcome to trt short answers today’s question is does trt cause weight gain trt in the beginning maybe the first two or three months does cost weight gain it’s almost all water it’s nothing to worry about perfectly normal happens to almost everyone but other than that trt does not make you gain weight that is unless you are working out and adding muscle yes trt will give you slightly more muscle without doing anything but if you really want to maximize trt you need to work out lift weights do cardio so just trt by itself is not going to pack on a bunch of weight after those initial two or three months but you can pack on substantial amount of weight by working out and hitting the weights trt testosterone is the best muscle building supplement that has ever been created if you’re on trt there’s a good chance that you can gain a lot of muscle if you work out so that’s it thanks for watching if you found this video interesting click on the like button if you’re new and you want to see some more trt short answers click on the subscribe button as always thanks for watching and have an awesome day and i also have tons of other videos on trt on my channel so if you’re interested or you’re learning about trt click on my click on my channel and check out all the different videos i have
welcome to trt short answers today’s question is how much does trt cost now there’s lots of varying factors here but let’s say you’re getting it from your doctor with a prescription and using good rx a 10 ml bottle of testosterone scipionate or anatheate is usually around fifty dollars if you’re using a compound like hcg a 10 000 iu bottle of hcg costs about 110 to 120 so we’re looking at a total cost of 170 and this amount uh at the maximum of 200 milligrams per week and 1000 ius of hcg per week will last two and a half weeks so that comes out to about 70 a month that’s through your doctor your insurance may cover more may cover less you know that’s very variable in this situation so how much do trt clinics cost trt clinics cost between 150 and 200 a month um but that can vary depending on the medicines you take and their payment structure so thank you for watching trt short answers if you like the video click on the like button if you want to see some more of these or you’re just starting out click on the subscribe button i have lots of other videos that go into a lot greater detail about these topics
welcome to trt short answers today’s question is does trt cause cancer there are absolutely no studies showing that trt causes cancer now there have been some issues uh with prostate cancer but they’ve never specifically said you’re shown been able to prove that it was because of trt you know there’s so many different factors that go in in the body and it’s really hard to narrow down trt but some of the newer studies are showing that trt really does not have any effect on prostate cancer we can’t say it with 100 percent it’s too new we don’t have all the data we don’t have the years and years of research but overall trt is not been linked to cancer directly but you need to contact your doctor and talk to them directly if you found this video interesting click on the like button if you’re new and you want to see some more trt short answers click on the subscribe button i also have over 200 videos on trt so if you’re learning about trt or you have more questions click on my channel and scroll through and you’ll see tons of different videos i’ve done on trt so thanks for watching and as always have an awesome day
PT141 also known as Bremelanotide and Vyleesi is a newer Peptide that may help men with libido and ED issues. PT-141 was actually first used to treat libido issues in women, but was found to help Low Libido and ED issues in Men. PT141 is derived from Melanotan which is used by some to help darken their skin. PT-141 is pretty cool compound with a strange history and an interesting possible side effect.
what’s going on guys tester levels here today i have a doctor with me who is the top of his field in making uh work oh he didn’t he didn’t reply to us no it went to spam so i’ve got to do all the research record it do the thumbnail edit okay well let’s get started guys it’s all about humanity [Music] today we’ll be talking about a compound called pt141 or bremelanotide rolls right off the tongue doesn’t it solo in the brand name violasi what’s interesting is this was a medicine that was used for women and but it happens to work for men but it’s interesting in that when they used it for women it was for to get the the juices going to want to do stuff um and for guys it does the same thing but it has an extra extra benefit so it’s pretty cool so let’s get into it so pt141 is a melanocortant agonist now remember the milano part because it’s interesting of where this medicine came from so pt141 is basically a medicine that is being used in men to treat ed and libido issues and it’s pretty new it was approved in 2019 they actually went through fda trials in 2007 but at that time the version of the medicine is giving people high blood pressure or an increase in blood pressure so they discontinued the trials they reformulated it over the next 10 12 years and they got fda approval for it in 2019 now what’s interesting about pt141 is that it’s not a pill it’s a subcutaneous injection and you’re thinking yourself well why would i you know skip over trying viagra or cialis and jump right to something that i have to inject for ed and i would agree with you on that i would definitely you know exhaust both those other options before even trying this but some guys do report that while it not only fixes that one issue it also increases their libido so if you’ve got the libido and you know you just need the fix for you know your boy then i think cyalis and you know the viagra would be the best choice as long as it was worked for you however if you’re having the lack of libido and that other issue this could be something that you could talk to your doctor about or a clinic about and not all clinics prescribe this but i know that defy does i’m not sure if matrix hormones does but i believe they do so it’s pretty interesting so basically what they tell you to do is inject pt-141 about 45 minutes before you know planned activity as much as you can plan for that activity you know i mean most people don’t put it on the schedule but you know the general ideas take it about 45 minutes before you’re gonna do something and uh you’re only supposed to take it once a day and what’s interesting is they tell you not to take it more than eight times in a month so if my calculations are correct you got friday saturday friday saturday friday saturday friday saturday but uh they say not to use it more than eight times and if you do even if you don’t there is a very interesting side effect that can happen and it’s due to you know what this family of medicines is you know pt141 is derived from so i’m going to jump right in so a company was working on a compound called melanon and if you’re familiar with it if you’re not familiar with it it’s a peptide a compound that people use they inject it and it darkens the skin so it like adds melatonin to your skin i don’t know the exact mechanism of how it works but it makes it darker i’ve seen tony huge and some of the people he hangs out with they use it and they look tanner in like a day without being in the sun pretty wild but a scientist who’s working on this he decided it was a smart idea to give himself double the dose of the melon or the formula whatever version they were working on and he found that he had an eight-hour erection which uh sounds horrible actually and he had uh dizziness and vomiting so obviously some nasty side effects but you know i mean eight hours i mean you gotta think okay you know that’s that’s a really severe side effect slash effect and what if we could tone this down and refine it and we can make it you know give you somewhat of that benefit not for as long obviously but not with the vomiting and the you know nausea and all that so that’s what they kind of strive to do and that’s where they’re at now this pt141 now that it is fully approved now there are some side effects um they say that you gotta watch it the first version they had you know it was discontinued because of the blood pressure issue this new version is obviously better but if you have high blood pressure or heart issues that’s something you definitely want to a talk to your doctor about and b monitor very closely so i’m not going to bore you with the whole studies that they did but long story short and about 80 of men it worked um you know there’s all these numbers and rigidity and uh what’s interesting is they in the study they said that they measured the benefit using something called the ridgescan and i’ll put it up on screen here it’s a real product that you wear during the day at night and it measures your boys rigidity and you can print out a report and bring it to your doctor and let them know how how active your boy was throughout the night and throughout the day pretty wild so the side effects the normal ones are nausea headache a little bit of fatigue but the most interesting one is that it can darken your skin mainly on your face and gums and i’ve mentioned that that from the family that it comes in the melanoma melanon is you know it darkens your skin so while this is not designed to do that because it you know comes from that family it is a side effect that can happen and they did mention that you know if you do take it more than eight times it’s a lot more likely to occur so you take it more than eight times in the month it’s it’s you know you jump up your percentage points of possibly having this now the bad part is that it may be irreversible i mean i don’t think that if you did you know you took the ninth dose in a month and you got a little bit kind of darker on your face or something like that that’s probably not going to be permanent but if you’re abusing this stuff then there’s probably a good chance that you could get it and it could be irreversible so it’s kind of interesting everything has its pros and cons ebbs and flows that’s just the way it is and that’s just the way this medicine works but a lot of guys really like it and clinics obviously and doctors wouldn’t be prescribing this if every person that took it you know had this side effect so i’ll finish this off uh it’s a subcutaneous injection about 45 minutes before they said that the reaction time to where you’ll you know reach achieve your final form is like a half an hour to an hour so basically 45 minutes before and you should be ready to go i haven’t personally taken this but from what i see online a lot of guys do like it because it gives them that boost in libido as well so i think it’s it’s not for everyone i would definitely look at the viagra and the cyalis first um and then you know if those work for you and you’re still having libido issues i would you know work with a doctor or clinic to try to figure that out on its own before jumping to this i think this is a very very narrow piece of the pie of people that would use this but hey if they can improve it in the next 5 10 20 years who knows we may all be using it but that’s about it guys pt141 bremeltaninide whatever the heck it is horrible to say but as always you’re awesome and get your levels tested
Many guys forget the the Quad/Quadricep/ Thigh muscle is a great place for testosterone injections for TRT. In this video I will show you the best way to find your best spot to inject testosterone into the Quadricep. This video also shows me doing a real (Carrier Oil Only) testosterone injection in my Quad / leg muscle. Best quad Injection.
what’s going on guys tester levels here today i’m going to show what’s going on guys tester levels here today i’m going to show you how i do my personal quad shots i’m not a medical professional i am not a doctor i’m just showing the procedure that i do this is not medical advice this is not advice on how to do an injection uh speak with your doctor now that we’ve got all that out of the way do a quick medical disclaimer and we’ll jump right in it’s all about humanity [Music] quadricep shots or quads are pretty popular a lot of people like doing them and i think one of the main reasons is is because of how easy it is to do you know they’re right in front of you so you can see what you’re doing you can use both hands you don’t have to tweak around to uh you know do your butt and uh your shoulders can be a little bit you kind of got to cross your body um but it they’re real easy because they’re right there now i’m going to be honest with you i’m not a huge fan of quad shots i personally find that i get the most pip or more common pip or post-injection pain when doing quads i did them when i was younger and i was not doing trt uh because i had a hard time reaching my shoulder with the one-inch needles that i had and uh yeah it’s just easy like it’s right there and i had to ant myself up to do them not a huge fan of them but i’m going to do them for you today to show you the spot that you do them while we’re talking about the spot so the best spot to do it it’s kind of it’s called the pocket so if you stand up and i’ll stand up for you you’re not going to see it if you stand up you put your hands at your side you know right where your pockets are that’s kind of the area that you want to do them and you know another way that you can figure this out is if you you know you run a line down the center of your leg from your hip to your knee that’s gonna be the first cut and then you go across halfway that’s gonna be the second cut and the top left quadrant for your left side and your top right quadrant on the outside of your right leg is gonna be the spots and the reason they do that is the reason those are the good spots is because there’s lots of veins and arteries and all kinds of blood vessels that run through your legs i mean quadriceps are the biggest muscle in your body so the idea is by doing it up here there’s much less chance of making an artery or a vein or a blood vessel i still do find that with quad shots i do tend to bleed a little bit more often when doing these shots that’s just kind of the way it is a lot of guys love quad shots i’m not a huge fan but i want to show you how to do it always remember be super sterile you know this is not something to mess around with if you’re just starting out alcohol prep pads are your friend another thing with alcohol prep pads once you clean the area make sure nothing touches it and let it dry if the alcohol is still wet and you put a needle in there some of the alcohol can you know kind of seep in there and you know it’s not going to kill you but it burns a little bit not pleasant just wait an extra 10-15 seconds be sterile and you can avoid that another thing i want to talk about real quick before you do that is aspiration some people believe you need to aspirate some people think you don’t i don’t personally do it what aspiration is is once the needle is in you’re gonna pull back with slight pressure on the plunger the little plastic piece and you’re gonna wait for five or ten seconds now if you did nick something then you’re gonna see a little bit of blood coming to the syringe and that would be a good idea if you do that move it out try a different spot if you don’t see any testosterone then you’re ready to full if you don’t see any testosterone if you don’t see any blood you’re ready to full sand and you’re good to go now i’ll explain a little bit more of the actual doing it what i’m showing you um but the idea is to go smooth and controlled don’t go in there and try to jam it in there as fast as possible don’t sit there for five minutes doing it but it you know a calm and precise just you know consistently pushing it down and one more thing before we do it uh i’m using a half inch insulin syringe a lot of guys don’t realize that you can use those type of syringes for quad shots they think that you have to get really deep into the muscle you know one inch one and a half inch and it has to be a you know a smaller gauge like 23 so that you can get the testosterone through i personally use 27 gauge half inch for all my shots except for uh ventral glute because you have to get a little bit further in there but uh you know your quads don’t really have a whole lot of fat on them i mean i mean you may you may not but quads generally don’t have a lot of fat so you don’t have to get too far in to hit that muscle so i think that covers it i’m just going to show you and remember guys be sterile be safe this is an injection you can get an infection so be safe very sterile all right so we’ve got our leg right here this is my left leg and remember i was telling you about doing the cross to find the right area so you draw a line right here and you draw a line across and this top left quadrant is going to be where we’re going to do the injection i’ll show you kind of here straight line down straight line across we’ve got our pocket area you can see why they call it the pocket area and you can see just from flexing not a bodybuilder or anything but you can see it that’s a quad muscle it’s right there we’re trying to stay away from the inside here because there’s lots of veins and arteries and all that good stuff we want to stay away from that so we’re going to take our prep pad and we are going to i like to i like to go a lot further than where i know i’m going to do the injection it’s not necessary but i just kind of like being safe so we’re just going to do that we’re just getting a wide area so that we know that there’s no bacteria on there and we are good to go now like i said earlier i’m going to let this dry so i’ll probably just you know fast forward or cut to when i’m actually doing the injection so before we do the injection just want to make sure that our muscle is loose we don’t want our muscle flexed up or tight or anything like that we want to make sure that it’s relaxed um you know just it makes it a lot easier it’s a better injection when the muscle is not flexed or under any tension and uh for the youtube moderator this is not testosterone and deca mixed together this is just purified carrier oil so just want to make that extremely clear for the person that manually reviews this video which i know that they will so we’re going to go straight in we’re going to go straight in like a dart we’re not going to go super slow we’re not going to jab it into us but you know nice clear concise motion so right here boop and no problem i’ll move over like this so you can see it and we’re just going to go you know quickly but not too fast we want to give uh you know the oil some time to kind of get situated get where it needs to be we don’t need to pull you know push it in super fast but we also don’t want to sit here for 30 minutes with the needle on our legs so you just find a happy medium and when i get done i’ll explain i like to let the needle sit in the leg for in the muscle for 10 seconds the reason i do that you don’t have to do that i personally find that i feel like it gives the testosterone you know kind of time to sink in and just kind of get acclimated get comfortable and i think it from when i started doing this it kind of makes it not bleed as much just something i do i mean you can try it if you want it’s not necessary i mean i could just finish this and pull it right out so we’ve got it all in there and i’m going to just rest my hand do it so you guys can see i’m just going for 10 seconds here and then we’re going to pull straight out nice and clean put the needle away and it didn’t bleed at all so that’s good so i’m going to take the alcohol prep pad a brand new one of course and i’m just going to clean the area and there you go you’re good to go when i used to do bigger injections when i was younger i would kind of move the muscle around if you want you can use your alcohol prep pad and you can kind of you know work work the oil in some people say you know you don’t have to do this and you don’t but i find i feel like it moves the oil around a little bit so it’s not all in one spot this kind of helps prevent pip a little bit in my opinion you don’t have to do this but i do it doesn’t hurt and there you go now i just i was doing this at home i would just let the alcohol dry pull my pants back down or up down and uh go about my merry way so i hope this video was helpful as always you’re awesome and get your levels tested
Ipamorelin is a selective human growth secretagogue that can be used to signal your pituitary gland to produce and release more human growth hormone. Ipamorelin has been shown to be safe and very well tolerated. However Ipamorelin and it’s sister peptide CJC-1295 has been put in a grey area of medicine. This is a very interesting compound which I feel is a great cheaper alternative to human growth hormone.
what’s going on guys test your levels here thanks for being with me thanks for the support if you’re new click on the subscribe button if you find this video enjoyable at any time click on the like button i’m really just trying to kill time because you can’t say certain things within the first 30 seconds of a youtube video or else you get demonetized so we’re going to cover ipomarelin today really cool compound uh it’s used to increase human growth hormone and it’s much cheaper so we’ll do a quick medical disclaimer and jump right in it’s all about humanity [Music] so human growth hormone definitely works there’s no question about it it’s the same idea as injecting testosterone you’re replacing your body’s natural testosterone or human growth hormone that’s all well and good human growth hormone works no question about it human growth hormone is extremely expensive i mean extremely expensive like thousand two thousand dollars a month out of reach of most guys but this compound we’re going to talk about today ipa moreland is much cheaper it’s still a little on the expensive side but it’s much cheaper cheaper for hgh if you actually have a deficiency in hgh or some guys and some doctors want to you know put you at the top of the level to help optimize your body and how it works hdh has a lot of benefits although it does have some side effects but we’ll jump right into ipo marilyn ipomorelin is an agonist of ghrelin and it is also a selective human growth hormone secretog what that means is that it’s not replacing your body’s natural human growth hormone but it’s signaling the rear pituitary gland to produce more human growth hormone and what’s really cool that they found about ipomerallin is that it doesn’t disrupt or shut off your human growth hormone so it’s this is an analogy and it’s not exact but i’m giving you a general idea so ipomerulin is the same idea as taking hcg or clomid to try and jumpstart your body’s natural production of testosterone where you know it doesn’t shut off your testosterone it doesn’t replace it it jump starts your body to make more of it and where human growth hormone actually taking human growth hormone fits into this analogy it’s the same idea as taking testosterone you know you’re giving your body the actual hormone that you know that you’re deficient in so that you know your body has enough but it turns off your natural production or can’t to some degree so it’s really cool that you know this doesn’t you know it doesn’t replace your human growth hormone but it tells your brain make more release more we need more human growth hormone we need it we’ve got to have it it’s pretty cool they’ve done studies on ipamarelin it raises growth hormone in humans and animals stuff works it’s there’s no question that it works it does exactly what it’s supposed to do and it’s actually a second generation selective human growth hormone secretoga so what’s the difference between the first generation and the second generation second generation is a lot more selective so the first generation while they did work and they did you know trigger the brain to produce more human growth hormone it also triggered the brain to release other stuff or make more of other stuff like cortisol and prolactin and anyone that’s dealt with high cortisol or high prolactin you know there can be side effects so this next generation ipomarelin is a lot more selective you know similar to selective androgen receptor modulators or sarms they go in they attach to where they need to and that’s it they don’t float around and go to all other parts of the body so when they were doing studies on either maryland you know they checked on other hormone levels to see if it was actually as selective as they thought and they found that it released either none or very negligible amounts of cortisol prolactin fsh tsh and lh so they pretty much prove that it’s very very selective it just goes in triggers your brain your pituitary gland to make and release more human growth hormone and that’s exactly what they wanted to do so it does exactly what it’s supposed to do so what are some of the benefits of well epimoreland and you know increased human growth hormone well they’ve got reduction in body fat improved muscle strength and mass strengthen bones repair joints and ligaments improve skin quality and increase energy and vitality you know those sound like all things that are pretty darn good lose fat stronger bones better ligaments more vitality i mean hard to argue with that but you know everything you can’t just go and just jack up your human growth hormones with no effects on the body um i have a video on hgh i’ll put up i never know which side it is it’s like reversed flipped around but um you know there are side effects of human growth hormone and so you have to consider that something about ipamarelin and with most human growth hormone according to the research it’s ideal to take you know close to before you go to bed and the thought process behind this and it makes sense is that when you’re sleeping your body is you know making growth hormone making testosterone repairing itself that’s just the way our bodies do the way our bodies do it sounds stupid anyway so you know the thought process is you take it at night you know your brain is going to release more human growth hormone throughout the night your body is going to do exactly what it needs to do it just makes more sense you know we make our hormones during the night and you know we kind of use them up i guess that’s a weird way to say it but you know we use them throughout the day and then rinse and repeat so some smart people put together well ipemarilyn works really good in this way and we’ve got another compound that works really good at releasing growth hormone in a different way what if we pair them together and put them in a synergistic relationship to release as much growth hormone and keep it steady as long as possible well they did that and it’s called ipomorelin and the other one that they add is cjc1295 so they basically took two things that work to release human growth hormone in different ways and put them together which is a smart idea it’s a synergistic relationship you know you’ve got two things doing the same thing in different ways and that’s the same way what bodybuilders have learned over time is that using synergistic compounds makes a lot more sense so there’s no reason a bodybuilder would take you know 250 of scipione and 250 of sustanon because they’re both pretty much the exact same compound and they both are fighting for the same spots in your androgen receptors so they would take something different they would take like scipione and deca you know they just do use different compounds that hit different parts of the body to build the most muscle possible and that’s what they did with this combination of fibromyalgia and cjc1295 i’m going to read you this it’s long lots of big words i don’t have a computer in front of me so let’s get it cjc 1295 slash ipamarelin is a combination of two peptides it is a growth hormone releasing hormone that stimulates one side of the pituitary gland it does this in order to produce growth hormone ipomerellin mimics the ghrelin and binds to the grown receptor in the pituitary gland in the brain thus it also acts on the pituitary gland in order to produce growth hormone these two peptides combine to act together in order to increase hgh produced in the body the cjc 1295 ipomarilyn combo is able to achieve this by acting on two different families of receptors so really cool uh i mean these peptides there’s so many cool peptides that are out there right now you know bpc157 tb500 both for healing we’ve got this you know hgh frag which is they’ve kind of isolated one of the 191 amino acids and this is the one that they’ve you know pretty much feel that this is responsible for weight loss you can get that by itself i mean it’s so cool what they’re doing with peptides the problem with peptides you can’t patent them because they’re already in our body so you know none of those are like fda approved i guess maybe some of them are but for the most part they’re not and you know uh cjc1295 and ipamarellan they’re kind of in a gray area with doctors and clinics doctors they can prescribe them but they’re in a gray area and it’s an interesting thing and take with this take this for what you will but i see this a lot and i see it not as a coincidence human growth hormone no gray area with it doctors can prescribe it fda approved it’s ridiculously expensive and it works cjc and ipa moreland both work proven to work works extremely well cheaper gray area i don’t know i mean i’m not a doctor i don’t work in the fda i don’t work in any pharmaceutical company but it just seems weird that you know these two compounds put together have been shown to work so well yet they’re in a gray area they’re not fda approved doctors and clinics are iffy to prescribe them but human growth hormone the really expensive one not an issue as long as you have you know a couple thousand dollars a month and want to inject every day and anyway but i just wanted to make you aware of ipa moreland i have a video on cjc1295 not sure what side of the screen it’s going to come on but it’s going to be on one of them for the cjc video so that’s going to do it guys if you’ve ever taken either one of those let me know in the comments how did you like it did it work well for you were there any side effects so if anyone else is watching this video they can see at least your personal experience with it obviously it’s not medical advice i don’t know why i even decided to say that but anyway guys thanks for watching if you’re new click on the subscribe button if you found this interesting click on the like button helps out the algorithm which already doesn’t like me so as

How to come off TRT, How to stop TRT, How to restore natural testosterone production after TRT, How to restore natural testosterone production after Testosterone Replacement Therapy.
hi how’s it going if you’re watching this video you probably typed in how to get off trt and stumbled upon this video so before we start i’m not a doctor uh this is not medical advice in any way shape or form i’m just presenting some information uh some bro science some anecdotal some science based and uh yeah we’re gonna do a quick medical disclaimer and jump right in it’s all about humanity [Music] so for whatever reason you started trt maybe to feel better but it’s just not for you that’s not what this video is about if you’ve made the decision to jump off trt whether it’s fertility side effects whatever it is that’s what we’re here to discuss so there’s pretty much four options there’s four but in my opinion there’s really three before we jump into these compounds i want to discuss why you have to do certain things when you come off trt and i’m going to be referencing the bodybuilding community a lot in this video because they have the most experience with this so when bodybuilders or guys jim bros when they run high amounts of testosterone it shuts off their natural production in their body so they run for however long and then when they stop they have to take things and do things in order to get their body producing testosterone again this is what’s known at pct or post cycle therapy and if you’re coming off trt you’re probably doing something very similar to pct but probably to a less crazy degree you’re going to be taking less uh because your body’s not going to be as shut down it may be but this is kind of a you know it’s one of those individual things where certain things work for some people sometimes it doesn’t work as well for other people there’s no science to this there’s there’s science in the medicines but there’s not like a okay if you’re on trt for this long at this dosage for this amount of time you have to take this amount of this for this long it’s not like that unfortunately and because i’m not a doctor i can’t give you any dosages i’m just gonna be talking about the compounds that are you commonly used for pct or coming off trt if you’ve only been on trt for like a week or two you probably don’t need to do any of this your body should recover on its own but if you’ve been on trt for a few months this is something you probably have to do and you should definitely consult your doctor this is just baseline knowledge i’m not a doctor how many times have i said that so far anyway when you start taking outside testosterone your body your brain is like okay i’ve got enough i don’t need to make it anymore but since you’re not going to be taking outside testosterone anymore we need to get your brain to turn on that testosterone valve so there’s a couple medicines that do this the first one and the most common commonly used is clomid and clomid is a serum and what it’s basically going to do it’s going to get in your brain and it’s going to attach to estrogen receptors and so estrogen is not to be able to bind to these receptors so your brain is like okay we don’t have that much estrogen so we need to send the signal down to the boys to produce more testosterone that’s going to convert into estrogen that we need and novodex is the other one and it does the same thing pretty much just it’s just a different medicine that basically does the same thing get in there tell your brain we don’t have enough estrogen we need to turn on the boys let’s get this going out of the two i mean they each can have their own side effects one to look out for on clomid is any vision issues blurriness fuzziness floaters anything like that you should discontinue clomid call your doctor let them know you’re having that issue stop because clomid can have permanent vision effects side effects now it doesn’t happen to everyone obviously but just something to know keep that in mind from what i’ve seen it’s kind of a 50 50 toss-up in the bodybuilding community with clomid and novodex some people swear by one some people swear by the other this is part of the process that i cannot help you with because i’m not a doctor i think that’s like the fourth time i’ve said it so those are your two most common those are two of the four the third one is hcg human chorionic gonadotropin now what hcg does is it mimics luteinizing hormone in your boys lose hormone did i say hormone it mimics luteinizing hormone in your boys and it tells them to keep doing what they’re doing you know keep producing testosterone stay close to the same size let’s make we need to make some boys some little swimmer guys hcg i personally i think it would go well on a pct some people say that it it’s not as good because it’s mimicking the luteinizing hormone and it’s not having the signal from your brain go to your boys and tell you tell them to produce start producing testosterone so a lot of people will use these we use either climate or novadex in conjunction with hcg a guy seth ferros or feroci he’s on youtube you can check him out he has a whole video on it he goes into a lot more detail than i that i do but he uses clomid and hcg and he even breaks down some of the you know the dosages the time frames all that you can also do some research on pct you probably you know you wouldn’t think to search pct because maybe you’re not in that world you’ve never even touched steroids you have no idea about them you just wanted trt to see if it would work for you but basically if you want to do research on this look up pct or post cycle therapy if i were to personally do a pct i would probably go with novadex and hcg but that’s just me you need to talk to your doctor now the fourth option and i don’t personally like this option but it has been used some people have used it effectively our aromatase inhibitors are like arimadex or aromason or xemastain now basically they’re accomplishing the same thing as the serms but in a different way taking one of these two medicines is basically going to kind of block your body from converting testosterone into estrogen leading to your brain realizing we don’t have as much estrogen so we need to tell the boys to make more testosterone to convert over to estrogen it’s it’s a different way of accomplishing the same thing um but i don’t like it as much there is a lot of controversy over ai’s and if you’re not careful you can crash your estrogen way too far and your body won’t be able to react quick enough and produce enough testosterone to convert into estrogen which are actively stopping from converting to estrogen by taking an ai so for i mean it is an option if that’s all you have but i would stick with the first two that we discussed um other than those you know i mean those are the main things what you’re trying to do is get your body to produce more testosterone um i would definitely take some multivitamins some vitamin d3 possibly some ashwagandha to help with cortisol levels and that’s also been shown to boost your testosterone a little bit but when you’re coming off trt every little bit helps other than that i would also suggest if you’re not already eating cleanly and exercising because that’s just good for the body when the body is feeling good and you’re doing good things for your body your body works better you know it’s just like your car you take care of your car you do oil changes you do the maintenance it runs better you throw a little premium in there and it’s a little zippier so that’s going to do it if you’re new definitely appreciate if you subscribed if you have any comments about pct or coming off trt that would be helpful for others please leave those in the description and if you liked the video and found it informative click on that like button always helps out but that’s it guys best of luck coming off trt if you ever want to come back on click on that subscribe and i’ve got like 200 videos 200 plus videos on trt so maybe you had a bad protocol maybe you just need to learn something modify something that’s what my channel is all about so thanks for watching as always get your levels tested
what’s going on guys tester levels here coming at you with a third video of the day got the same shirt on i’m just feeling motivated to be in front of the camera and right now i’m really just trying to make it past 30 seconds so my video can be deemed suitable for all advertisers all right i think we’re good it’s all about humanity [Music] so i came across an article on whether cbd hurts or helps with testosterone levels and i found it pretty interesting although there’s not a lot of scientific data there are some interesting kind of studies that they’ve done but i mean cbd is really new in the in the medical world i guess studies wise i mean it’s been around for a while but it’s only been popular for a few years and legal in most states for the few years so you know we’re still the scientific community still playing catch-up um cbd i believe has lots of health benefits i mean it’s been proven i mean we have cannabinoid receptors all throughout our body if you’ve ever watched a show called trailer park boys there’s a character named ricky and he’s like he’s like we have cannabinoid receptors in our brain he’s like why the hell do you think they’re there he’s like because so we can take cannabis but uh let’s jump into the article and point out some interesting stuff and uh let’s go what does science say about cbd and testosterone and they preface that you know there’s not any like clinical like hardcore you know definitive research and also make note of well you can’t see it but the website’s cannabis radar so take that with a grain of salt but they said uh nevertheless the available scientific papers seem to suggest that cbd has an overall positive effect on hormone production and its functioning a 2017 study published in the andrology indicates that marijuana use could increase serum testosterone concentrations among men the researchers concluded that men with recent cannabis use had higher concentration of testosterone than those who weren’t there’s also been studies that have shown the opposite of that so that’s yeah cbd also seems to suppress testosterone’s breakdown allowing it to remain in circulation within the body for a longer period for instance a 1988 paper published in the drug metabolism and disposition indicates that cbd suppresses testosterone oxidation in adult male rats now that’s pretty interesting in itself now granted it’s just a rat study so you know take that for what it is but that studies not even saying like it will raise your testosterone levels what it’s saying is that it allows the testosterone to stay in your body longer you know be more have more longevity in the body instead of being oxidized and all used up so i found that one pretty interesting cortisol is also a known deterrent of testosterone production cbd indirectly enables testosterone production by suppressing cortisol release according to a 1993 study published by the brazilian journal of medical and biological research cbd use can significantly reduce cortisol levels now i’m not sure how cbd would stack up against ashwagandha which is an herb that’s been used in medicine for a long long time but the idea behind how ashwagandha can help raise testosterone levels is that it supposedly suppresses cortisol levels cortisol is is basically our bodies like stress hormone when you’re under lots of stress when you’re constantly under stress you know your brain produces more cortisol and this is thought to inhibit testosterone production to some degree so it’s interesting that they’re talking about cbd and cortisol um and that’s why ashwagandha is you know in all these trt boosters and all that i don’t think it’s it makes a huge enough difference it’s really you know it’s not like revolutionary like oh all these guys are taking ashwagandha and they’re freaking jacked and juicy but it all adds up so it’s interesting that cbd’s being compared to ashwagandha by me not by them we know cbd is an effective deterrent of stress and anxiety thus indirectly promoting healthy testosterone production some individuals suffer from performance anxiety too new research paper cannabinoid cannabis cannabidiol cannabidiol as a potential treatment for anxiety disorders um yeah we’re not gonna get into all that interesting study published in the life sciences 1983 indicate that the major psychoactive thc and non-psychoactive cannabinol cbn and cbd can both stimulate and inhibit testicular production however cbd’s effects be counted by thc if you consume marijuana in any form i don’t personally think that the two necessarily would offset each other i think that thc’s effects on just the body in general would be more pronounced than cbd it’s kind of tricky one i just don’t think they just straight up cancel each other out but cbd cbd is such a cool compound i was actually watching a show no idea what it’s called but this family they lived in texas and they had a girl a daughter she’s like 10 years old and she had like hundreds of seizures a day like she was constantly having seizures like it was horrible to watch it was really really sad and they drove her to colorado where cbd was legal and she goes to this place and they like make this like you know high dosage for her and uh they give it to her and like her seizures were cut by like 95 just from cbd like broken down weed plant you know purified concentrated whatever i mean no thc but these cannabinoids cbd and i mean the girl seizures went down like 95 and what was really crazy about about this show was the lady in colorado who was giving her the medicine they basically told her like if you go to texas if you go back to texas and your daughter’s taking cbd and she has to go to the hospital for any reason and if they blood test her and they detect you know the cbd also as you know as they would see it as marijuana they could arrest the parents for child abuse and i was like that is insane like this medicine helps her daughter it helps their daughter like 95 percent but if she went to the hospital and got tested and popped on on a blood test they could be arrested for child abuse so this family the guy had to quit his job they got like an rv drove to colorado lived in the rv while the husband tried to find work so that the daughter could continue with their treatment and that’s crazy our laws are nuts but back to the testosterone you know overall i don’t think that you know if you’re hypogonadal and you’re sitting at 250 i don’t think you’re gonna take any amount of cbd to put you back up at 700. do i think it could be slightly beneficial i do would i personally take it just for testosterone absolutely not you know real high quality cbd is not cheap i think you’d be much better off with multivitamin vitamin d3 working out getting more sleep eating clean all that good stuff but it’s interesting to see you know just another thing that cbd can help with not cure not fix but help with and hey if you’re you know if you got your testosterone kind of borderline and you start doing other healthy stuff and you want to add in cbd to see how it helps i mean might help with other stuff too i’d say go for it but i wouldn’t order it just for testosterone but that’s about it guys thanks for watching as always you’re awesome and get your levels tested
Post injection pain from testosterone injections can be very annoying and can even be painful. In this video I will share with you some tips to help reduce Post Injection Pain or PIP from testosterone replacement therapy injections. Some very easy and simple methods can help reduce your post injection pain which is usually felt in the muscles the day after your testosterone injection.
what’s going on guys texture levels here recently i’ve gotten a lot of messages and comments about post-injection pain or pith so i thought i’d put together all of the techniques that i’ve seen and tried to give you a comprehensive list of things that you can do to help reduce pit for your daily or weekly or bi-weekly trt shots so let’s jump right in it’s all about humanity so the first method we’re going to discuss is the z-track method now you know if you just go straight in and straight out uh the testosterone has a pathway to seep out of the muscle a little bit the concept of the z track method is that say i wanted to inject right here well i’m going to pull the skin to the side put it right where i want it and then when i’m done with the injection i let the skin go back to normal the concept here is that you know you’ve got the barrel and when you pull the skin to the side and go in then when you take the syringe out then the fat layer of your skin is going to you know go over that layer so it’s going to block you know the testosterone from being able to come back out now the third way that you can accomplish this is something called the airlock method so what you basically do is when you draw your testosterone you’re going to leave a little bit of air in it and the concept here is you can still go straight in and straight out but that last little bit of air that’s going into the muscle is going to you know create a little barrier to where the testosterone can’t come back and you know leak out of the muscle at all and also before we go forward you know pip is an interesting thing i did just this week the exact same amount of volume the exact same compounds one in my left shoulder one in my right shoulder my left shoulder was sore for like two days this one i did yesterday don’t feel a thing so it’s just interesting sometimes it’s random but you can definitely do some things to decrease its frequency and you know the amount of pain that you’re in if you do get it so this may seem kind of elementary but the needle size and the needle length that you use can have an effect in pip if you’re going into you know your ventral glute and you’ve got a little half inch syringe you know your that testosterone might be just making it to the muscle and then when you pull that out a lot of that you know testosterone oil will seep into the subcutaneous layer and that’s what i’m going to jump into next if you notice when i was talking about the z-track and the airlock method the idea of those was to keep the testosterone from seeping into the subcutaneous layer of your skin and you know your fat the reason this is is that there are pain receptors you know right in between you’ve got the muscle and then right after that you’ve got subcutaneous layer and fat now right in between these two are pain receptors so if you go into the muscle and you pull straight back out and some of that testosterone decides to leak out now it’s going to hang out and chill right near these pain receptors so that can be you know a factor of why you’re getting pip there’s also another way that you know you can experience pit after an injection it’s called pressure necrosis and what that basically is is you know you’ve got your muscle and your muscles you know it’s solid it’s it’s a solid little thing whatever you want to call it now when you take one ml of liquid and you push it into your muscle you know you’re displacing your muscle you’re kind of you know spreading out your muscle a little bit to accommodate for this testosterone now you know it’s a known thing that this happens um that’s why you’ll see you know bodybuilders are in two three four mls in one spot i mean imagine you know pushing out four mls and pushing your muscles out that way and it creates lots of pressure and that pressure can kill off cells and can kill off your muscle fibers all that good stuff it’s a lot of pressure and that’s where a lot of the pip comes from so my solution to this is that the more frequent that you can do an injection without being too annoying you know if you’re just doing one week one ml and you’re getting pip well you can easily do two injections per week of half an ml that’s going to cut down half the pressure that your muscles experiencing every time that you inject another thing i did want to mention if you’re just starting out and you’re getting pip it’s fairly common and the reason for this is you have virgin muscles you know your muscles have never felt this you know this pressure before it’s never been you know kind of separated to accommodate you know a volume of oil so if you’re just starting out you know you may experience this probably more often than someone who’s been doing it for years whose muscles have experienced this multiple times let’s get into the ways that you can help reduce pit the first one would be heating up the muscle or the area that you’re going to inject in this is going to increase blood flow this is going to relax the muscle so that’s one way that you can help right there the next one is warming up your testosterone bottle what this is going to do is create less of a change in temperature between your muscles 98.6 and your testosterone probably somewhere in the 70s whatever your house is set at so right there you’ve got a 20 something degree temperature difference and you know your muscles may not like that so if you can bring your testosterone closer to your body temperature one would think that maybe the muscles on the oil will gel a little bit better there’s a couple ways that you can heat up your testosterone and one of them i don’t like uh the first one is very simple you can hold it in your hand for a while you know you got to do it for a little bit of time so that that heat can absorb into the testosterone and heat it up some guys will even put you know a bottle under their armpit and just hold it there and always remember to be sanitary after you do any of this stuff i don’t like the under the armpit thing i just feel like you know life happens and you may forget something reach for something and boom you got 10 mls on the floor holding in your hand it’s not bad it just takes a little while a lot of guys will say you know get a shot glass or a coffee cup fill it up with hot water and put your bottle in there it works don’t get me wrong it heats up your testosterone but it also can degrade the paper or the sticker on your testosterone bottle now it’s not a huge deal but if you’re heating this up every single time you know let’s say you get 20 shots of a bottle you know you’re either going to have a loss of that label the label is going to get real deteriorated and if you have to travel somewhere you know you could end up you know showing up at tsa with a clear glass bottle full of oil with no markings on there not something i’d prefer to do my personal favorite method for heating up testosterone a good old heating pad super easy plug in your heating pad put your bottle on there fold it over turn it on high it’s nice because it’s passive so you don’t to do anything you have to sit there hold it or put anything under your armpit and uh it doesn’t degrade the label in any way shape or form all it does is heat up the testosterone this next one isn’t really related to pip but less pain during an injection uh let’s make sure after you put alcohol on the injection site let it dry if it’s still wet and you go to you know put a needle right in your arm it can carry some of that alcohol in there and it burns so i’m not saying that’s necessarily cost pip but i’ve done that before and i it personally hurts more than needle going in so i just like to make sure that i let my skin dry always remember to be as sanitary as possible if if something happens or redo the alcohol you know don’t skimp on the sanitariness that is of dire importance you definitely don’t want to get infection this is something that i do i’ve just noticed that when i do this i get less blood after an injection so what i do whether it’s sub-q or i am is once i’m done injecting i will just sit there and kind of hold you know the syringe for about 10 seconds before i pull it out i try not to move it as much if you’re if you freak out about needles you could probably skip this step i can’t prove this helps with pip but i wait 10 seconds i pull it out i seem to get less blood overall and i kind of feel like the 10 seconds you know gives the testosterone a little bit of time to kind of settle in and it’s not just you know raring to come right back out and hit that subcutaneous layer of pain receptors so you’ve done your injection maybe you did the z track you know you made sure everything went good you left it in there for 10 seconds after you were done what can you do now um you know what i normally do say i’m doing a delt shot is after i’m done you know if there’s a little bit of blood or even if there’s not i’ll put alcohol pad back where right where i injected and i’ll hold it there and i’ll massage the area just massage it get that oil kind of moved around as much as you can within the muscle i’ll do this for a little bit and it does seem to help a lot another thing that you can do is you know after you do it we already learned that you know heating up that area will relax the muscle and also increase blood flow so why won’t we do that after the injection so if you’re doing doubts or quads wherever you were you could just throw a heating pad on there for 10-15 minutes on high and just you know really get a lot of blood flow and heat relax that muscle now if you’ve been on trt for a while and so you know you can kind of rule out that you virgin muscles that aren’t used to the you know the pressure of injections and you’re getting pip all the time or very frequently it could be the carrier oil you know maybe your body doesn’t like sesame seed oil maybe your body doesn’t like cottonseed oil grape seed whatever it may be your body just may not react to it well so i mean if it’s a constant thing and you’re not injecting like four mls in one spot you know you may talk to your doctor about getting a prescription from a compounding pharmacy that uses a different oil than what you’re using that would be my best advice if you’re constantly getting pip i mean if it happens every once in a while don’t be like oh i’m allergic to my carrier oil i one pit one incidence of pip over 20 shots but if it’s almost every time or very frequent i would look into the carrier oil that you know your testosterone’s in and see if i can find an alternative with a different carrier oil apparently there is an underground lab that is making testosterone uh in a concentration of 400 milligrams per milliliter so basically double what the pharmaceutical stuff is and i’ve actually talked to two people that have used this and they said that the pain is horrible from the stuff like these guys are limping for like two days because their quads just hurt so bad and it’s i believe a combination of just you know the higher concentration of testosterone and also underground labs in general usually use more alcohol and the reason they do that is it’s not like they have this you know pristine million dollar factory with you know infrared lights and sterile conditions you know it’s an underground lab so they’ll add a little more alcohol to kill off anything that may happen to get in that bottle and while that’s good so you don’t get an infection but the alcohol can also cause a lot of pip so you may experience more pip if you’re using ugl just remember just because ugl says there’s a certain concentration on the bottle doesn’t mean that the guy that was whipping up that formula you know did all his math right or you know measured precisely who knows it’s an underground lab so you don’t really know what the one guy was telling me was that he was looking for you know a sterile 10 ml bottle and some you know pharmaceutical grade sterile oil so that he could take and basically you know split that 400 into 200 and bring it down to a normal concentration now he may still get pip because there’s still a lot of alcohol but you would think that diluting it in half would help with that so you followed all these tips and you still have pip what can you do to reduce the pit and you know increase the recovery time to where your muscles don’t hurt not a whole hell of a lot you know there’s not much you can really do once you get pet the only two things you can really do are massage and heat to increase blood flow and to you know just move around the muscle and work out the kinks so that’s not really much else you can do there’s no magic trick that i can tell you where you’re just gonna you know your pitch just gonna go away all you can really do is heat it up and relax the muscle so that’s gonna do it guys i hope this is helpful um if you’re doing any of these techniques and you found them to work uh please put them in the comments so you know someone who’s starting out trt or having issues with pip can look and say okay well ten guys said that the z track method helped or 10 guys said that this helped and hopefully this can help some guys so they don’t have pip so they don’t have to skip shoulder day or they don’t have to skip leg day i don’t think anyone’s really doing glute day but who knows but that’s about it guys hope this video is helpful as always you’re awesome and get your levels tested
Nandrolone Decanoate, also known as Deca or Deca Durobolin is a powerful compound that had many medical benefits. Nandrolone Decanoate has been used for years in the bodybuilding community, but has also found uses in testosterone replacement therapy. Deca is mainly used in TRT and men’s health to help lubricate the joints and offer pain relief for men who work out our who just bad joints. This video highlights how I felt after adding even more Deca to my TRT Protocol.
what’s going on guys tester levels here thanks for being here thanks for all the support you’re awesome and thank you for all my subscribers if you’re not click on it right down below but i want to bring you probably the final video on my little experiment that you can guess what it’s on from the thumbnail and uh let you know how i felt at this particular dosage and uh yeah let’s just jump right in it’s all about humanity [Music] so if you’ve watched my other videos on deca you know that i was taking 100 milligrams for approximately two two and a half months and i felt really good shoulders felt better um but not 100 so and everything else in my life was going really well i mean libido was fantastic everything else was good felt great and in my infinite wisdom when something’s working really well for me you know why not add more of it to see if more is better well it turns out for me that jumping up to 150 didn’t really give me any benefits now i’ve only been on it for about a month and i know two months two months you gotta do two months deca takes two months long metabolites all that good stuff but i would think that if i jumped up you know fifty percent extra dosage that i would see some type of improvement in a month’s time and i really haven’t you know deca is not it’s not like a healing agent it doesn’t heal what’s damaged in your joints it basically just helps lubricate your joints it does a lot of other good stuff as well but it’s kind of like wd-40 for your joints now if you have a squeaky door and you put wd-40 on it it’s fantastic it doesn’t squeak anymore but there’s something internally damaged on the hinge and you spray wda40 in there the wd-40 is not going to heal that structural damage or whatever type of damage it is and i think that’s where i’m at my shoulders i mean they just they hurt and deck has definitely helped but there’s definitely some some structural damage of some kind in my shoulders because even at 150 milligrams you know i was just benching this morning and i can feel the shoulder i can feel it right in there i hope that they make the camera blurry but uh i mean i could feel it you know when i when i first start bench pressing you know i’m on the machines but that first push i can feel it in both my shoulders sharp pain which has gotten better since deca but it’s still there so in my opinion you know i think i’ve gotten the most that i can get out of deca and i don’t think jumping up to 200 or 250 or anything like that would make any difference so for that reason and for the reason i’ll speak up next i’m already started dropping it down to a hundred and it may take a little time for it to drop back down and even out whatever the second thing i noticed when i increased my deca dose to 150 it was a libido change not a huge libido change but a libido change nonetheless so when i first started at the hundred milligrams you know after a few weeks i mean a lot of veto was through the roof like out of control i’ve said it before it was it was annoying almost because my wife’s not here for most of the day you know what i’m saying but when i jumped up to 150 i noticed that there were days where i felt exactly the same as not 100 but there were also days where i felt i don’t know probably i’m trying to put a percentage on it that’s kind of hard but probably like a 50 drop in libido there’s really no rhyme or reason to it you know one day wake up you know raring to go chris of raron so yeah we’ll go with that and then other days it just like it didn’t even cross my mind you know i just didn’t even think about it maybe i was just too focused on work whatever but normally that thought pops into my head quite a few times as it might with yours but you know it was just uh it was kind of kind of random you know like some days fantastic some days didn’t really even think about it now it’s not a huge deal because i mean obviously you know i’m on higher dose trt and i’m 100 milligrams of deca so i mean i’m you’re taking a libido that’s you know up here and you know you’re probably dropping it down to what like a normal level is so it’s not like i’m sitting here like you know oh i’ve no libido at all i have no interest you know nothing like that it’s just i just noticed that it dropped now i mean do you have to have a super high libido all the time no of course not and i don’t need that but you know why take more of a medicine that’s not giving you any real benefit and then also have these fluctuations in libido there’s really no reason to i mean hey i’m going to save money by using 50 less and you know there’s no reason to take more medicine than what you need so while i really do like deca and i do think it’s a great compound that’s very overlooked by the medical community just because a doctor looks it up you know the first thing they agreed deca oh used by bodybuilders used by you know sports guys to improve athletic performance side effect you know they’ll just look at that they’re not going to look at the studies showing i don’t even know there are a huge amount of studies showing the uh you know joint benefits and all that but it’s it’s very overlooked it’s been you know had a bad shadow cast on it because of bodybuilding and steroids um but for me 100 is the sweet spot and that’s kind of what i heard the general golden rule is you know take half of whatever you’re taking and test so 200 tests 100 deca 400 tests 200 deca and i’ve also heard guys say that you can you know you can stay under whatever your testosterone doses so you could do 400 250 whatever you know each person’s different and each person responds differently and is using deca for different reasons but for me 100 milligrams is perfect gives me the benefit i need no side effects feel fantastic 150 using more medicine you know not really getting any benefit and having fluctuations in libido could be because of high prolactin i’m not really sure i haven’t gotten blood work you know since being on 150 or 100 for that matter but i am going to get blood work toward the end of this month so let’s look at my blood work kind of i mean pre-deca but you know earlier on and then you know my blood work on deca so i guess that’ll be the last video i do on deca so one more to come blood work on deca that would be uh that’s gonna be a banger yeah youtube slang gonna be a banger but that’s about it guys you know let me know what your thoughts are um let me know if you’ve used deca if you’ve gone past 100 you’ve gone to the 150 200 territories how that worked for you anything you noticed but that’s about it if you’re new click on that subscribe button i got tons of good videos got a lot of stuff coming up and uh if you could leave me a like on the video helps out with the youtube algorithm algorithm doesn’t really like me that much so any little bit helps so as always guys thanks for watching you’re awesome and get your levels tested
