Bump

bump - I wonder how much something like Epistane (or other OTC designers) would stimulate RBC/marrow? In my case, the previously stable (not growing, possibly shrinking) benign cyst (aka, growth, tumor) originates from the center of the upper arm bone. I would assume marrow plays some role. As...

I think my main question is: Has there been there definitive proof that androgens speed of the spread/mutation of all (or most) cancers (specifically). Or, if not, what specific types of cancer do androgens accelerate. Or should we conclude since AAS speeds up so many processes within the body...

Mackey MA, Conway AJ, Handelsman DJ. Tolerability of intramuscular injections of testosterone ester in oil vehicle. Hum Reprod. 1995;10(4):862-5. ABSTRACT We undertook a prospective survey of the tolerability of deep i.m. injections of testosterone enanthate in a castor oil vehicle, the most...

In spastic_gramps's case I DO think this would be asking for trouble. As for my scenario, I really don't think so. Perhaps I just don't want to accept it though. However, my case is a bit different. Keep the informed opinions coming please...

Are you referring to him or me? In his case, yes, he dodged a bullet. But in my case Im not sure it's exactly like I "dodged cancer". For example, a friend dropped a dumbbell on his foot. It traumatized the foot bone(s) and a few years later he ended up getting some strange bone growth on the...

I had a benign bone growth (lesion) in the center of my upper arm bone. No biopsy or surgery was required (ruled out by advanced imaging). I even had a full body scan to check for any other hot spots - all clear. It's small, it doesn't compromise bone strength or anything like that. We only...

I have taken it, I took it for about 2 years and it did reduce MPB but I "seemed" to put on abdomnial fat quicker/easier. I was never sure if it was legit or a placebo. I wanted to try and find out. Obviously there are no studies on it because a) merck was paying for most of them b) merck...

Personal experience is great. I'm looking for that. I guess Im also looking for any physiological/hormonal reason why it would tend to make you "fatter" or perhaps make you deposit abdominal fat easier. Perhaps some of the more well read members can chime in on this aspect. I think its clear...

We all know that DHT is responsible for aggravating MPB. And by now many of us have come to realize DHT isn’t so bad and serves a purpose besides just causing hair loss. What I’m concerned with in this post is how long-term finasteride use effects overall body composition. That is, lean muscle...

This is really more diet/supplement related but I put it here because it will get more views. If you must move it, sorry... Here are a few little nuggets of info for those that are cutting (its that time of year again :D) and also using well known weight loss or "thermogenic" compounds. For...

I have seen a lot of posts regarding Milk Thistle lately (not specific to Elite). Obviously a lot of ppl take NAC/MT to help the liver when using 17aa/methyls. Numerous posts have mentioned that it is Anti-androgenic and could hurt gains. Nobody really backs any of it up but just refers to this...

Whats the IDEAL GT dosage per day for aiding in fat loss? If one is looking to cut how much is considered optimal w/out overkill. Obviously it is a stimulant so you can go overboard.
