In a different thread you said:

"A self designed HRT program is simple and if you are not happy with the Dr and her response, why not give it a try?

100 mg of test p/w, 0.25 a-dex twice a week, and 1 iu human growth hormone - somatropin - eod are the drugs..."

How important do you think the a-dex is with that low of a dose of test? I was under the assumption that 100mg of test per week isn't likely to raise estradiol levels enough to warrant the use of a-dex or similar in most instances. Is it because on TRT, a person will be administering exogenous test for periods of years rather than weeks as on a normal, higher dose cycle?

If you feel like elaborating I would appreciate it.

Thanks.

It was not so much me as my Dr and his experience with hundreds of patients. I did start to get a "raw" feeling in the nipple tissue after about 6 months. Between that and the Dr's desire to hold esto down for a variety of reasons, he prescribed the a-dex.

The older the male, the more the %ratio of testo to esto tilts towards esto. So it is smart to block some .... not all, some.

I do cycles also and use a-dex then too. Never had any nipple or other problems.

Thanks Lion! Now if I can bother you with another question...do you think the liquid versions like Liquidex and the others are of the same efficacy (or close enough) to actual arimidex? I ask because I live in a pretty small town without a lot of options and it was pulling teeth to get my doc to prescribe injections in the first place - don't misunderstand, I was medically eligible but he insisted on using gel. I can't imagine how much trouble it would be to get a-dex.

Anyway, thanks for your time and appreciate your response.

a-dex is common. Try the Dr. Sell him on idea that you'll keep the dosages way down (0.5 or even 0.25) and do a blood test at least twice a week.

Would 1iu of GH EOD be okay for a 24 year old to take?


I was thinking it would help me age better, keep skin looking young and tight,ect.


Why not start earlier then wait untill the damage is done?

You are way too young. Wait until your 40's.

So I'm doing 300mg of T-enth per week. Doc prescribed 250/wk for HRT. Should I be taking Clomid at the same time, or wait the Clomid until PCT?

HRT is forever. I have never done PCT.
