Does norepinephrine get increased with Testosterone/AAS use?
Does this get increased?

Hmmm....interesting question. I don't know how the adrenals would get affected whilst on AAS. It would be interesting to know what compounds do...
Good question Mr. Carth!
Why thank you good sir!
bumpity bump!

Maybe. Norepinephrine is synthesized from dopamine, and I know for sure AAS increases dopamine. I think things that affect norepinephrine more are things like speed, adderral, strattera, the ADD meds.
It can -- nominally -- depending on how sensitive you are to the effects.
So what does increase Norepiniphrine? Is it T3?
Yeah, but I thought you were talking about testosterone.
At any rate, it isn't a direct effect -- more of an effect of the side effects. Excess norepinephrine is more condition of stress and anxiety and needs to be treated as such.

Squiggling & holding hand up (i know! I know!)
Yes it does......actually any basic changes in the body will affect Norepinephrine , which acts as a catecholamine with multiple roles including as a hormone and a neurotransmitter.
As a stress hormone, norepinephrine affects parts of the brain, such as the amygdala, where attention and responses are controlled. Along with epinephrine, norepinephrine also underlies the fight-or-flight response, directly increasing heart rate, triggering the release of glucose from energy stores, and increasing blood flow to skeletal muscle. It increases the brain's oxygen supply. Norepinephrine can also suppress neuroinflammation when released diffusely in the brain from the locus ceruleus.Exercise will trigger it ,as well as pain.
When norepinephrine acts as a drug it increases blood pressure by increasing vascular tone through α-adrenergic receptor activation. The resulting increase in vascular resistance triggers a compensatory reflex that overcomes its direct stimulatory effects on the heart, called the baroreceptor reflex, which results in a drop in heart rate called reflex bradycardia.
Norepinephrine is synthesized from dopamine by dopamine B-hydroxylase. It is released from the adrenal medulla into the blood as a hormone, and is also a neurotransmitter in the central nervous system and sympathetic nervous system where it is released from noradrenergic neurons. The actions of norepinephrine are carried out via the binding to adrenergic receptors.so we go back to the original question does Steroids affect Norepinephrine levels? a definete "YES"!

Nice reply Radar. A++ for you and a gold sticker!
So since Testosterone increases dopamine. And NE is derived from Dopamine. Then Testosterone=Dopamine=NE. Yes?
