Buddy at gym gave me some depo testosterone to try

[airkooled05]

I am 63 . Not too bad a shape for a guy my age . Of course musuclar development has slowed down and energy levels down some . I have had some minor prostate issues in my life . They come and go and I self medicate with herbs and such . So , with that in mind I am a bit unsure of injecting this stuff . I was thinking of starting with just 1/4 cc and maybe to 1/2 cc over a month . I need some friendly advice . Thanks , John

Probably a good idea just to ask your dr. At your age he might even prescribe it to you. I wouldnt waste my time with less than one cc a week. Aas needs to be run at an even blood level so taking a bit here and there won't work.

 

[Pork Chop]

Have you been to the doc yet to see what your t level is?

At your age it is best to go do a doctor and explain the situation, more likely than not you will be put on trt.

More than likely he needed to be put on TRT 20 yrs ago.

DHT and estrogen cause prostate problems.

Best thing is to go to a doc, get on a test replacement program along with an AI. Maybe HGH as well.

Screwing around taking a little here and there is a waste of time and just not a good idea for someone at any age.

realistically this guy is gonna do it anyway without seeing a doctor. maybe he will take a few days to read and get a basic understanding of gear.

At this guys age testosterone has WAY more benefits than disadvantages.
I would advise to at least get blood work and a BP monitor for home.

Agree. It would be a very smart thing to do. Like Latsky mentioned...I dont think you would have a prob getting it prescribed ot you.

Thank you kindly

I am out of work and already spent money on a doc that wanted to give me the cream . Money being tight as is with many I was trying to avoid playing Rusian Roulette with these docs . I cant afford it .
Any way I appreciate all of your responses . I do have a steady source for it . I know a 1/4 cc isnt much . I thought I would start there to see how I responded and workup . Again , thank you kindly.I may need to just wait a while and go to another doc .
Interesting about the prostate flare up . I had one in Dec . I had been taking dhea . I quit and it got worse . I then read on line where dhea mightbe advisable. I started it againand symptoms diminshed

 

[Himik]

I would research docs in your area, you are bound to find someone who is known in the community for his practice of HRT. Ask around your gym, i am sure somebody knows a doc or two.

 

[BigBird]

And a 1/4 - 1/2 cc every month would have zero anabolic effect. However, it might have an effect on your prostate - for better or worse. Not sure. You may very well be eligible for TRT and then you're gtg.

 

[Ravager]

Give it a go man, you deserve it.

I'd start with 1/2cc WEEKLY not monthly.

I bet you'll enjoy life more.

 

[yerg]

androgel is VERY expensive.. Im sure a doc would give you weekly or at leat bi-weekly injections of depoit testosterone. The injections are much cheaper. I was just thinking that it sounds like money is an issue???

 

[VictorZ06]

Obviously you should discuss this with your MD. What kind of prostate issues did you have?

[LightBearer]

at youre age you could get legit stuff from ur doc, so just do that

 

[Digitalash]

for sure see about TRT, should definitely improve your life even outside the gym

 

[airkooled05]

Thanks , you all have been great

From what I gather the best thing to do is find a way to see a doc . I appreciate the time everyone took to respond . Thank you kindly .
One person asked about my prostate issues . Some periodic inflammation and discomfort . Not a big issue but it is there . Thanks again

you will really need to keep your estrogen in check for your prostate's sake.

You should have no problem finding a doctor.

Do you not have insurance ?

 

[tupin]

I get Benign Porstate Hypertrophy Syndrome (BPHS) when I cycle Test. The free Test seems to make me flare up. It's temporary so don't worry. It has always gone down when I do PCT. You should at least do a blood test to see your level of IGF, Test, and estrogen. It would be safer to self medicate with Test if you know your starting point.

Great post- I agree with everything said- but this post is " dead nuts on" and this guy already probably has his gear ordered. D- also posted above that less than one cc per week is almost worthless. Another great post. So-I will add. See the Doc- get your TRT gear- read everything on these boards and have at it. But- see the fucking doctor- have regular blood done- cycle in some of the PCT gear and blast if you want. Hell- you are in the bottom of the 7th- with no men on base anyway. Be smart- stay healthy. This is from someone that is 60- not a youngster- but these young studs on here know their stuff and are a great group. Ouuta here-Thanks
PS- get some good pussy

 

[airkooled05]

thank you again

no insurance . thats a drag at my age . Lots of great input here that is appreciated .
The guy at the gym that fixed me up had dramatic results will 1 cc per week . I am not looking for dramatic . Just feeling better and a little better results from my work outs .
Any way we will see what happens here . I will post some info when something good happens with this . Later Mates

 

[airkooled05]

I did neglect to mention the guy who fixed me up is 66

1cc a week should make you feel better as that seems to be the upper range dosage for HRT. but even .75cc a week which would be 200mg of Test would be good. Try it out yourself and see. There are a few really good sponsors on here where you can get more for cheap if you wish.

 

[Digitalash]

yeah even .75 cc a week should have you gaining muscle and chasing skirts again

 

[airkooled05]

thanks again

I am going to start Monday . I will let you know how it goes

 

[LightBearer]

Good luck brother, utilize the free health clinic in Ur area to monitor Ur health after u start

 

[ordawg1]

If you are doing just one cc perweek- Iwould split the dose- Monday morn Thursday night- plus I go subq and keeps my levels much more stable.No insuranse doesn't mean- no bloodwork. You can stll pay out of pocket. I have insurase for my 4-5 times per year bloodwork- but I also have my blood tested a few more times out of pocket and isn't bad at all. Make sure to run liver support and also a few other things even at that dose. Luck on ya

 

[airkooled05]

thank you re the most recent responses . I will do just that . Have a great day
